A united family is a threat to the enemy

The plan of the devil is to plant enmity between you and your spouse so, you will not be united.

Happy Couple

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 :9-Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.

10- For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.

11- Again, if two lie together, then they have heat: but how can one be warm alone?

12-And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.

The enemy understands the power you can wield if you are united. Couples who are united serve as a pillar for each other in the time of trouble.

Criticism and anger tears marriages apart and gives room for the devil to plant negative thoughts and ideas.

Better still, is the threefold unity. The threefold cord in the above scripture simply means that the couple have God as a partner in their marriage.

In all you do, make sure you acknowledge God and the Lordship of Jesus in your marriage.

Unity is power. Decide today, not to let offence cloud your love for your spouse.
