@ MFM Headquarters, Lagos.

Marriage! Thou art loosed

The message is target against every marriage that is under the oppression of the devil; the word of deliverance is going out today and the marriage is loosed in Jesus name.

"And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity." {Luke 13:10-12}

This woman has been going through troubles for a long time until that faithful day; she got her deliverance through the word.

v The enemy is not after every marriage; the enemy is after Christian marriages.

The enemy is after Christian Marriages because of 12 principles; this is what makes the kingdom of darkness afraid of Christian marriages.

12 Principles of Christian Marriages

1.    Principle of the word of God.

 The devil cannot handle “it is written”

The Word is as hammer and fire; fire consumes; hammer break to pieces. The word of God is very powerful.

2.    Principle of holiness and righteousness

“Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.” {Heb 13:4}

 Thus is what makes marriage to have honour.

3.    Principle of prayer

“. . . The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." {James 5:16}

Prayer establish joy in your home

Any home that is not given to prayer is inviting the enemy to dwell with them

4.    Principle of love.

  The devil cannot operate in the atmosphere of love

 They need to love each other irrespective and unconditionally.

5.    Principle of understanding

Know who your wife is; understand who your husband is

"A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels :"{ Prov 1:5}

6.    Principle of prophetic/pastoral blessing

The prayer of your man of God is a spiritual defense on your marriage

7.    Principle of fellowship

  The man and wife d should but see themselves as strangers.

8.    Principle of Godly Counsel

"Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety." {Prov 11:14}

Lack of Godly counsel brings failure in marriage.

9.    Principle of vision

10.                       Principle of revelation

This is seeing beyond the natural; to S.ee what others don't see because you are in the light

When you walk by revelation, then the enemy cannot deceive you.

11.                       Principle of Service.

12.                       Principle of Divine Agreement

"Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven." {Matt 18:19}

The devil fears that scripture too much.

 v These powers against Christian marriages are not physical but spiritually.

v The woman bent in Luke 13 was tied with a spiritual rope; this ours the reason Jesus said "Thou art loose"

v A bent marriage is spiritually tied.

May your marriage be loosed in the name of Jesus.
