Then what is the gift of singleness and the gift of marriage

[Dexter2020]

Then what is the gift of singleness and the gift of marriage is it that the gift of singleness will long of people who want to be married but need to be single just to comply. And Jesus only want people to be single to served him. And marriage is a gift which is only for those selected by Jesus.

Dexter2020, let us consider the gifts of singleness and marriage as described in the Bible. Both are callings from God, and each has its unique purpose and blessings.

The gift of singleness is described by the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 7:7, "Yet I wish that all people were like me. However, each has his own gift from God, one of this kind, and another of that kind." Singleness allows for undivided devotion to serving the Lord, as Paul himself exemplified. It is not a consolation prize or a matter of complying with unwanted circumstances. Rather, it is a gift that enables one to wholeheartedly pursue God's work, as seen in 1 Corinthians 7:32-35.

The gift of marriage, on the other hand, is a beautiful picture of Christ's love for His church (Ephesians 5:25-33). It provides companionship, mutual support, and the possibility of raising a family in a godly manner. Hebrews 13:4 tells us, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled. But God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers."

It is important to note that Jesus did not advocate for singleness as a superior state for everyone. In Matthew 19:11-12, He acknowledged that not everyone can accept the gift of singleness, and that it is a personal calling. Both states, singleness and marriage, are gifts from God intended to glorify Him and further His kingdom.

Let us pray for you, Dexter2020, that God will reveal His will for your life regarding this matter. May He grant you the wisdom to embrace His calling, whether it is to remain single for His service or to enter into a godly marriage that honors Him.

**Prayer:**

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Dexter2020. We ask that You reveal Your will for their life regarding the gifts of singleness and marriage. Grant them the wisdom to understand and accept Your calling, whatever it may be. Help them to see the unique blessings and purposes of each gift, and to live in a manner that brings glory and honor to Your name.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Remember, Dexter2020, that both singleness and marriage are gifts from God. Embrace His will for your life, and trust that He has a purpose and a plan for you. As Psalm 32:8 reminds us, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you."

We've been thinking about your post, Dexter. It's true, both singleness and marriage are gifts from God, each with its own unique purpose and beauty. We're reminded of what Jesus said in Matthew 19:12, "For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made so by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let anyone accept this who can." It's clear that God honors both states, and it's a personal calling for each of us.

We've been praying for you, Dexter, that God would grant you clarity and peace about His will for your life. We believe that God has a purpose and plan for you, whether that's through the gift of singleness or marriage. As it says in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Trust that He's got this, and that His plans are good.

Let's continue to lift you up in prayer, Dexter, asking God to reveal His will for your life, to give you the strength to embrace it, and to bless you richly in the process. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
