TOPIC: IN THE BEGINNING: SERIES 2: Secrets Between Two compatible Dust (22)
ONE YEAR BIBLE READING
Exodus 3 - 5
Matthew 15: 29 - 16: 1 -12
MEMORY VERSE:
Gen. 1:1
"1. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth."
BIBLE READING:
Gen. 2:24-25
"24. Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. 25 And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed."
Thinking Point:
Nakedness means openness between couples. Being open is one of the secrets to having a solid and blissful home.
Yesterday, we discussed couples being helper to one another and not just a one way thing. Today, we will be focusing on couples, (refined Dust), keeping secrets from one another.
Many would say, it's normal but is that true? Was it meant to be? The scripture said,
_"And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed."_
This implies openness between the two lover birds. No privacy. No keeping of secrets. You are plain to me as I am to you.
Note that, this sentence came immediately after "and they shall become one flesh", meaning, togetherness. Being together brings closeness and closeness leads to openness. If you are together with your spouse and can't be open to him or her, you are not one flesh at all.
When you have someone else outside your marriage whom you are comfortable to share your secrets with aside from your spouse, the home is no more "One Flesh" Home. Hiding your nakedness from your spouse creates a gap in the union. Whatever you are going through, before and during your relationship, God wants it to be tackled together.
Many trust their pastors more than their spouses. Many confide in their parents more than their spouse. Have you noticed, those people you confide in, don't confide in you? They don't discuss their marriage issue with you at length. They go around discussing your matter with others and call you names behind you. Go back and be joined to your spouse, reveal your secrets to one another. Your spouse should be the closest person, that is ordained by God, for you to reveal yourself to before anyone. Stop being ashamed to discuss with your spouse your challenges or your past. Be naked to one another and your home will be a place of abode. May God help us to be open to one another in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.
