Have you ever had a preconceived notion about where your future spouse should come from?
.
I certainly did, and it almost cost me the love of my life.
.
A few years before meeting my husband, I had a definite “no” for his Local Government Area (LGA).
.
Ironically, that’s exactly where he hailed from. 😄
.
So, what changed my mind?
.
It wasn’t just a change in preferences but a profound journey of learning and growth.
.
A few months before my husband popped the question, I stumbled upon a book that delved into the idols we unconsciously hold onto, hindering the blessings of marriage.
.
This eye-opening read not only shifted my perspective on my ideal marriage location but also revealed the deep-seated unbelief in my heart, unbeknownst to me. ðŸ˜ðŸ™†
.
The author skillfully navigated through scriptures, unveiling how these idols don’t align with God’s plan.
.
Freed from the shackles of misplaced priorities, his place of origin became a trivial detail when he proposed.
.
I had more critical considerations in mind.
.
Idols, powerful and often unnoticed, can obstruct the path to your God-ordained partner.
.
Reflecting on Ezekiel’s message, God warned against setting up idols in our hearts, hindering our ability to seek His guidance.
.
Idols blindfold us, impairing our capacity to recognize the right person.
.
That transformative book I stumbled upon?
.
It’s a must-read for every unmarried person.
.
The truth is, God might be sending your ideal partner your way, but unrecognized idols can obstruct the blessing meant for you.
.
Break free from unseen barriers, cooperate with God, and embrace the love He has packaged just for you. 💑✨
