I completely agree with Kathr's answer. Man, even so call Christian man many times, take advantage of the struggles of the women. They see the needs women are under, and they move in when someone is vulnerable.
They move from woman to woman. And they know the amount of women out number man by a whole lot. Not all man but many are only thinking of themselves and not for the good of the other. Sorry to say that but it is true. Church women are more likely to be the choice since they are good and godly women, and not loose as many from the world who go to the bars and leave with man whenever they want. Many of those cannot be trusted to be loyal. |

I remember once someone saying to me "Oh you're God's answer to my prayers....I replied..."But You're not God's answer to my prayers".
Be careful what you say to people. I KNEW it was a pick-up line (in church too) but I also KNOW and knew it was not God's will for me to re-marry!
This guy used this line on several woman before getting caught in a lie...he was married! (beware of NEW men and woman coming into your church too! |

lee, I hear what you are saying. When I was single I heard so many stories of sisters who claim to be waiting for God to bring someone, and the first guy they met, they would say, this one God brought to me. They would pick someone that look great. And later be so disappointed. Sometimes the problem is desperation, other times, its need. They take measures into their own hands. Many are not strongly mature in the Word or depended upon God but on their own feelings as to what is right. It's harder for Christian women who want so much to depend on God first but finally fail. But we are not to take lessons from animals, but from the Word of God. Be depended on Him for all things. Animals don't believe in Christ. We do. |

We may all be wrong with our answers.Here are the facts,believe it or not.What about all the previous christians who waited on God to find a mate for them.Sure they found a Godly mate.5 years later they are divorce, just like the secular world.Well what happened,because 52 % of christians divorce just like the non christians.The real problem is with us and them.Humans are the most selfish things on the planet.We want all our needs catered to and if not ,well we'll just find someone else who can then.Maybe we should take lessons from the lesser species, (animals) who mate for life,like the dove etc.Maybe we are too selfish to deserve a mate.The whole truth! |

Lewis, you are acting like Sarah. She was told she would have a son and she could not wait. God's timing is always perfect. One good thing about been a Christian is that our faith is now on Christ. And what you want to do is go back to who you were before you were saved. You want to be in charge. You stopped trusting Him. You can become a good pick-up artist if that is what you want. You want. If you think that will help you in life, then your evidence is you cannot trust God for something so small. I say small because there is greater things in life then having a women. |

I am beginning to believe that God is going out of His way to keep me from finding a good woman. Everybody keeps saying to wait on the Lord. Well, it has been too long. So I have decided to rely solely on myself to get this done and will read books by experts to learn to be a good pick-up artist. |

God has a plan & purpose for every living being. If you trust God & depend on Him, HE will give you your own wife. Whether He will bring her to you like Adam or Isaac, or HE will make you to travel like Jacob to where she is, God is the best arranger of all good things. But you must be prepared to use what you are expecting from God only in His will. |

From the view point of that woman that is TRUSTING God to be found. In Proverbs 18:22NIV it says "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the LORD." It is up to you. I am waiting for God to send that man for me in my life. Sometimes it is hard but I will trust him. I am 34, a teacher, Worship leader, and VIRGIN! that is waiting for God's best. This has not been easy but I have prayed for my husband from the age of 16 years old.I need you to to know that you should look within yourself and and ask God what is best for you and what you want and make sure what you want before you begin to seek. I know she will be worth the wait. I know this because that is the same thing that gives me faith to wait. Trust God! PRAY! |

Erik:All it takes is endeavour the will to please, create a temperate atmosphere, agreeability, self denial,and keep a smile on Her Face. I wish you both well on the sea of Your life with God as your Guide.Not coincidence the word is Control self control with lots of love for spice.Did not God deny Himself when He sent His only begotten son to show us HIS WAY?.Blessings to you both especially when you arrive at a puddle of contention.That is when the play is in motion. |

Let me tell you this-About a year and a half ago i was at a young life camp in Canada, one of our leaders was 24 at the time, single. Us campers were talking and on the subject of women and relationships, and he says "If you choose and trust God's way, God will provide a wife for you." The next day he met the woman that is his wife today....Coincidence? |

God created the First woman and inbibed a pleasing trait between the sexes .That is why we are to choose according to His views and our suitability, and level of agreement, we call compatibility. |

God does choose spuouses for christians. It's a biblical principle. He may be preparing you for a particular purpose, which He will reveal. |

---Monde on 9/19/08 |

I disagree with Shira bout no one being able to intercede on your behalf. JESUS in the HOLY SPIRIT is our Chief and Ultimate intercessor, but we we pray for others, we are always interceding on their behalf to help uplift them in the LORD and to seek and ask what GOD will have for them at HIS appointed time and according to HIS will. We also have intercessory prayer ministries throughout the world at at different churches. |

Hi James,the bible says " in all things acknowledge him and he will direct your path".He won't drop her off at your doorstep but if you have asked his will on this he will in his timing provide the right person.I believe it was God himself who said it is not good that man should be alone.Pray about it,and be careful! |

I have to agree with gregg. First, we must seek God ... putting our trust and faith in Him alone. If we follow His commandments, He will take care of everything else, according to His will. That, however, doesn't mean we sit back and wait for the Lord to hand us everything we ask for, on a silver platter. We have to be prepared to do our part, if and when, an opportunity arises. After all, God works in mysterious ways. Good luck, James. |

Mariana ... I could turn your point round.
God expects you to do things for yopuself in the less important areas of you life ... earning money, finding a job, keeping healthy, choosing a home.
So why would he not expect yuo to make some effort when it comes to the very important thing of finding a spouse? |

Proverbs 18:22 says.... "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord". (NIV) This does not mean that you cannot receive favor from the Lord if you do not get married. |

no. God is not in the business of bringing a wife to you. you must go find her, while praying for guidance. i waited for God to bring my wife to me, and i am still single at forty-one. |

Good question, and in Christ that says you need to put cart before the horse. Not good. Marrage is acommittment of life as one. An oath taken before man and God. A person you have to wake up each morning with for the rest of your life. God called you and He will call her, listen real close to God speaking. |

James, no person can be your intercessor. Jesus is our intercessor. Others can pray for you tho. |

I would say that God expects us to do something about such things.
We look for jobs, we seek loans to buy our homes, we research holiday venues.
Why should God not expect us top do something about being in situations where we might see the woman we will marry? |
|
---Alan_of_U.K. on 4/14/05 |
Yes GOD will show your wife to you before you get married. After all you need to know who you are marrying.(Smile). I just believe that if you seek GOD and believe HIM for the type of wife you want, you sincerely continue to walk right before HIM and continue to prepare yourself as a GODLY husband, HE will give you the desires of your heart. Sometimes GOD move Quick and sometimes takes a while, but what is most important is waiting on HIM and doing the right things according to the WORD in the Meantime. I'll intercede on your behalf for GOD to grant you a GOD fearing Proverbial wife. |
