Marriage is God’s will for man. The first man He created, He provided a

wife for him and blessed their marriage.

“And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept:

and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And

the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and

brought her unto the man”. Gen 2:21-22

“And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply,

and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish

of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that

moveth upon the earth”. Gen 1:28

Satan hates marriage. He brought marital crisis that

made the couples to start trading blames for causes

of their failure in obey God’s command.

From them till now, divorce and promiscuity are reoccurring events from

the pit of hell which was introduced in marriage by the devil. Jesus taught

that it was not so from the beginning.

Besides that, the devil also introduced barrenness which he is using to

wreck havoc in many homes from then till now. Beside barrenness, another

weapon of the devil against marriage is difficulty in getting married. Devil

knowing that marriage is God for man doesn’t want this will of God to

come true in the lives of marriageable men and women.
