House Divided

November 8, 2007

Luke 11:17 Complete Apostles' Bible
(17) But He, knowing their thoughts, said to them: "Every kingdom divided against itself is made desolate, and a house divided against a house falls.

While Jesus in this verse is speaking about Satan attacking his own demons to stop them doing what he told them to do. It is so true for real life as well. A house that has a husband and a wife quarreling and at odds with each other cannot stand either. I speak from experience when I say that if one wants to be doing God's will and the other drags their feet, the house will ultimately fall.

The decision to marry should be done carefully. I urge those reading this that if you have trouble agreeing on things with your spouse, then it would be a good idea to get counseling to bring you back in line with each other. Your house will ultimately fall as well.
