COHABITING
COHABITING!
A lot of we ladies have gotten it wrong on this and been lied to all in the name of marriage. Before making lifelong commitment before God and man in marriage, please avoid the temptation of cohabiting.
Cohabiting is Living together before marriage in a simple definition. It is very wrong for Christians and as a daughter of God to live together with a man or husband to be before marriage.
God frowns at this act and expects us to flee from any form of it.
He said,
“Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body”.
1 Corinthians 6:18
Cohabiting births the sin against our own body (sex) so God pleads with us to flee from it. I have heard a lot of ladies say nothing will happen, we are matured enough to control ourselves but for how long?
Imagine sharing a space with a man, cooking, washing his cloths and performing any wifey role and you said nothing will happen. Mind you something is already happening, even if sex hasn't occur. If all of this is happening then you are already making way for sex to happen.
Well aside this, why I choose to write this is to let us know what cohabiting is not.
Maybe if you think like this or have been deceived.

Cohabiting is not confirming Gods Will. Yes am saying this, if a man has approached you to spend the rest of your life with him. Beautiful! but that doesn't mean you will have to pack your things to his house for clear confirmation.
How?
We don't confirm Gods Will by packing our things to a man's house, we do it in praying, getting revelations and building of friendship outside his house not living with him in his house. I know its not easy waiting to be together as man and wife. But if God has revealed to you His will for a partner cohabiting in not another prove.

Cohabiting is not to check Emotional Intelligence.
How you two can understand,
communicate effectively, overcome challenges and build stronger bonding together.
No! No!! No!!!
Have you ever heard people who are already married saying, you don't completely know a person even in marriage?
Well that's true!
Not even on how they will handle emotional issues together.
So cohabiting will not reveal a persons strength before marriage.

Cohabiting is not proving of love or securing your place in a man's life.
Dear daughters of Zion!
You don't prove to a man that you love him by living with him. Even if he is tempted to tell you to prove tour love for him by doing that, if you love yourself, God and adhere to His instructions you will run.
If after cohabiting and a man doesn't want you anymore, you can't force him to.
Whats love to prove there?
Why the rush to fulfill the scripture of becoming one flesh, when the joining hasn't taken place?
Many relationships don’t work out because of this act and a lot that has, may have a hidden story to tell because of the wrong foundation they built their marriages on.
It is Gods Will for us to have a solid foundation in marriage, so the devil will not carry out his evil plans in our homes.
Even if its just a week to your wedding do not move into his house and if you are with someone whom you are living with already or you go spend weekends in his house please resist from itit and turn to God for His forgiveness and help.
You are worth more than that, precious and deserves the best.
I pray God gives us the Grace to wait.
Amen!
Yours Truly,
Ray
