What to look for in a future spouse part 3
Here are the last three traits I'd recommend to look for in a future spouse:
#8. Do they
spend time in prayer and in God’s Word? If not, they have an attitude that says, “I don’t really
need God’s input in my day” “I’m quite capable of running my own life my way”
WOW…
#9. Where is their heart? Jesus said, Matt 6:21 “Where your treasure is, there your heart is also” It’s real easy to see where someone’s heart is…look at their bank statement. Mal 3:9 talks about a curse on those who don’t give to God what is His to begin with. I don’t want my kids marrying a person who doesn't put God first. When someone asks me if they can marry my kids, I’ll ask them to show me their checkbook.
#10. Do they walk by faith? 2 Cor 5:7 For we walk by faith, not by sight Not “Do they believe in God” but walk by faith. How do you know? Ask them for examples of times they took a step in a direction because they knew God directed them to…there is a huge difference between walking by faith and praying a prayer.
