GUIDELINES ON THE CHOICE OF A MARRIAGE PARTNER - GBILE AKANNI

Christian Courtship : Guidelines on the Choice of a Marriage Partner

By Bro. Gbile Akanni

Are you seeking God's will for your marriage partner? This powerful teaching, part of the Christian Home series, gives biblical, practical guidelines for young men and women preparing for marriage.

Drawing from Genesis 2:18–23 and Proverbs 18:22 and 19:14, Bro. Gbile Akanni unpacks why the choice of a spouse must come from God alone — not from pressure, emotion, or personal effort. You'll learn:

- How to discern whether God is truly leading you toward marriage now, or whether it's mere pressure from friends and peers

- Why knowing your God-given purpose matters before you consider a life partner

- How God uniquely prepares a spouse who will grow with you over decades, not just meet your present needs

- Why waiting on God's timing protects you from costly mistakes

- How to surrender anxiety and manipulation, and truly rest in God's process

Whether you're single and searching, newly interested in someone, or already in a relationship you're unsure about, this message will realign your heart toward God's pattern for finding a marriage partner.
