Today, I will discuss marital burdens as another category of burdens. Satan hates everything God has created, including the institution of marriage.
This is why he always tries to disrupt the holy matrimony between a man and a woman.
Sometimes, he focuses on keeping a man and a woman from ever getting married, and at other times, he visits a husband and his wife with different problems that will keep them from enjoying peace and rest in their home.
Today’s Bible reading tells us about a wedding in Cana of Galilee.
The bridegroom must have thought that everything that was needed for the wedding had been provided.
However, they suddenly ran out of wine. I am sure that they felt ashamed until the Almighty God intervened.
1 Samuel 1:1-20 tells us the story of Hannah, who was barren. Her adversary mocked her daily, and as a result, her life became unbearable.
She didn’t plan to be barren, but barrenness came nonetheless, and there was nothing she could do about it.
The Burden Bearer stepped into her situation, however, and she gave birth to six children, among whom was the renowned prophet, Samuel.
Sarah was also under the yoke of barrenness until the Burden Bearer visited her and her husband in Genesis 18:1-6.
Before the Burden Bearer intervened in their marital situation, Sarah had been barren for decades, which was why she laughed when she heard that she would give birth to a son the following year.
If you have been looking for the fruit of the womb and have lost hope that you will ever carry your own child, I want you to know that the Burden Bearer is also the hope of the hopeless, and He will surprise you.
In the name that is above every other name, I decree that every barren woman who is reading this devotional will sing for Joy soon.
Beloved, there is no marital challenge that the power of God cannot subdue. The Lord can command peace to reign where there is chaos and disunity, and He can still the storm in any marriage.
If you are married and are currently experiencing any storm in your marriage, I pray that the Burden Bearer will step into your marriage now and cause you to sing a new song, in Jesus’ name.
Also, if you are of marriageable age and are yet to be married, I decree that the Almighty God will settle you maritally with a godly spouse, in Jesus’ name.
