Dear reader, how do you know if this is the right partner for marriage? Here’s the one sign this person is the right marriage partner.
You risk getting confused.
First, when looking for a partner, you risk getting lost if you rely solely on human judgment. Most people base their decision on a person’s physical appearance. This is where you risk getting lost, because every day you will discover a new person with characteristics that interest you.
Only God can choose for you.
In reality, only our Heavenly Father can choose the ideal partner for you. In fact, you may be interested to know that God chose for you a partner as soon as you were born. Interestingly, when choosing a person, God doesn’t look at their physical appearance. He looks at their heart.
Listen to what God says:
The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.
1 Samuel 16:7
Ask God.
Therefore, considering what has been mentioned above, it is always best to ask God when looking for the right marriage partner.
This is exactly what Abraham’s servant did. This servant was tasked by Abraham to look for the right marriage partner for Isaac.
He did not know how to go about this mission, so he prayed to God, saying:
12 Then he prayed, “Lord, God of my master Abraham, make me successful today, and show kindness to my master Abraham.
Genesis 24:12
As a result of this prayer, Abraham’s servant succeeded in getting Rebecca as the right marriage partner for Isaac.
Here’s the one sign.
Therefore, the only sign that you have chosen the right partner is God’s approval. When God approves a partner, your marriage will last forever.
