'Do Not Divorce!' โ Matthew 5:31-32
Key Thought
God said it forcefully, "I hate divorce!" (Malachi 2:16) Jesus' words here are equally emphatic. Jesus' condemnation is specifically directed to men because they were the only ones in Jewish culture in Jesus' time who could divorce a marriage partner. A woman was left with few options other than remarriage or poverty. While God hates divorce, Jesus' ministry demonstrates God's love for those broken by it (cf. John 4). Still, God hates divorce because of the brokenness it creates in the lives of those involved and because of the loss of character in one or both parties that often causes divorce. Based on their love for God, husbands and wives have as their goal two key things: (1) loving each other and (2) learning faithfulness through their relationship with each other. By pursuing a loving relationship and remaining faithful sexually, they are guarding themselves against divorce and are honoring God by maintaining their covenant with him and with each other. In an age where promiscuity and sexual indiscretion run rampant, we must heed the call to sexual purity and loving commitment so that strong families can be built and divorce and its devastation can be prevented.
Today's Prayer
Holy and faithful God, please help me keep my heart loyal and true. I want to be a person of character. Empower me by your Spirit to stay free of sexual sin and to be faithful in the commitments I make. In addition, dear Father, please strengthen and bless those that I know who are in marriage distress and ransom their marriage from impending divorce. (For those who are married:) Holy God, I pray that you not only keep me from divorce, but that you also lead me to a life of loving service and faithfulness with my marriage partner. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

[Jesus continued:] "You have heard the law that says, 'A man can divorce his wife by merely giving her a written notice of divorce.' But I say that a man who divorces his wife, unless she has been unfaithful, causes her to commit adultery. And anyone who marries a divorced woman also commits adultery."โ Matthew 5:31-32 NLT

*_A Week Of Jubilance_*
Matthew 6:24
*Prayer :*
I confess sometimes I have a false sense of happiness when money can satiate my worldly cravings which are destined for decay.
Remind me that money can certainly be put to many good uses when used in a righteous manner but the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Help me not to pursuit money but to serve You with undivided heart.
Father, I choose to trust You and seek You first above all things. May all of my energies be channeled to honor You.
In Jesus' name, I pray.
*_A Week Of Jubilance_*

Love God as Christ Did
Jesus was an addicted lover of God. It was shown in His daily life on earth. God was involved in Jesusโ daily life. You see, God personally desires to be involved in our daily lives. As Paul says, โit is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasureโ (Philippians 2:13). Paul explains that Jesus Christ, our elder brother, lives in us if we are converted Christians (Galatians 2:20).
How should we express our love towards God? โBy this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensomeโ (1 John 5:2-3). As John explains, God expects us to demonstrate our love to Him and others by keeping His commandments. We have the life of Jesus Christ as a model of how we should live. Jesus kept the commandments of God (John 15:10). He pleased God because of His obedience and His desire to do the will of God. As we are recipients of Godโs love, He expects us to share that love with others. That love, Christ said, would characterize His disciples through the ages. โA new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one anotherโ (John 13:34-35; 1 John 4:11).
Prayers:
Father, cause our hearts to love You more in Jesusโ Name, Amen.
Text: _โHe who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Himโ_ 1 John 4:8-9

Matthew 7:1
*Prayer :*
I acknowledge that I need this lesson every day of my life. I pray that You keep me from being critical and negative about others.
I know when we are unfairly harsh to others, we are setting the standard by which God will judge us. Father, I ask You to judge me favorably. Help me to look lovingly on others and to judge them favorably.
Thank you for being so rich and free with Your mercy and grace lavished on me. Please help me to be more gracious and merciful to others in the same way.
In Jesus' name, I pray.
