1 Corinthians 14:40 But all things must be done properly and in an orderly manner.
Just in case you forgot or didn’t know, there is a godly order when it comes to family. For years, we’ve been bombarded with media coverage and TV shows that display and glorify ungodly order. We’ve seen girlfriends living with boyfriends, unmarried couples having children, and single women choosing to have a child based on their age. Some of us have seen so much ungodly order until we’ve accepted it as the new norm.
God’s original design for family can be found in the book of Genesis.
-God made Adam (male) (Genesis 2:7).
-God made Eve (female) and made her Adam’s wife (Genesis 2:22-24).
-Adam and Eve had children (Genesis 4:1).
God is the Creator of our lives and the Creator of family. The order He created is for our best interest. If we choose to trust His plan for our lives, we can experience God’s best in our marriage and for our children. We sometimes go out of order because WE think there is a better way based on our current situation, but as the Bible says, there is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death. Anytime we go out of order, we let God know we don’t trust Him or His plan.
Now, for those who have already gone out of order, it’s okay. Through the blood of Jesus, God has forgiven you and He can bless you wherever you are. Trust the order of God and know that it works out for our good.
