SETTLING (Relationship & Marriage)

 Psalms 107:7 NIV says: "He led them by a straight way to a city where they could settle."


Life is a journey. We all start somewhere and are headed somewhere. Each of us has a dream, a vision, and a destiny planted by God—including the dream of love, companionship, and a lasting relationship. But between where we are now and the marriage we hope for, the road can be filled with questions and uncertainty.

Many people struggle with confusion in relationships. You may have dated someone and thought they were “the one,” only for things to fall apart. Or perhaps you’ve never been in a serious relationship, and you wonder if God has someone for you. Some people are in a relationship but not sure whether to commit. Others feel pressured by age, culture, or family expectations. Choosing who to marry is not a light decision—it affects your peace, your purpose, your legacy.

Psalm 107:7 gives us deep comfort. It says God led His people in a straight way—meaning He had a clear direction for them, even when they were confused. The Israelites had moments of doubt. Some wanted to return to Egypt. Others feared dying alone in the wilderness. But God had a place in mind for them: a home, a land of promise, a place of rest.

The same is true for your relationship and marriage. God already knows the right person for you. He knows the one who will walk with you in purpose, love you deeply, and help you grow. He knows the home you’re meant to build together. Even when you're unsure, God is not confused. He sees your future, your needs, your calling—and He wants to guide you to the right partner, at the right time.

Don’t let fear, pressure, or past pain lead you. Instead, ask God to lead you in a straight way—to the person and the relationship He has prepared for you. You don’t need to keep wandering emotionally. You don’t need to go through heart breaks and betrayals for you to find a right person for you.

You are going through all those sufferings because God is not your leader. Ask Him today to lead you to a right person.

Prayer: Lord, lead me in the right way concerning love and marriage. Show me who to walk with. Help me settle in a relationship that honors You and fulfills my purpose. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
