The world talks
about threesomes and/or the love-triangle, where you have
a man and two women,
or a woman and two men, in a mutual relationship – or making out – a
relationship they all agree to without fuss, without hassles. Threesome, as the
world knows it, is dirty, despicable and disgusting in the sight of God. However,
the threesome or the love-triangle God ever intended was that involving Himself,
the man and his spouse.
Now, for threesome
or the love-triangle, consider the isosceles triangle. It has two sides of its
three sides equal. But then, consider the angles. I am no mathematician, but it
is evident from looking at a picture of this triangle carefully that two of the
angles – the ones at the base – are closer to each other than the one at the
apex. (This speaks of the physical closeness of the man and the lady.) in this
way, the lines pointing upwards and meeting at the apex are equal. Do you get
the picture yet? Yes, God is at the apex, so at the helm of affairs, shining
His single, concentrated beam on the man and his lady at the base, as they
equally relate with Him.
God really blew me
away, showing me this in 2008 while I was praying one day. Before this time, I
haven’t heard anything like it. I felt like jumping up and dancing in
excitement. It was exhilarating.
The man and his lady
relate with each other and with/to God at the top/above, Who is their Source of
Love, Passion, Life. Thus, the man and his lady are truly bonded together,
connected to each other, as God would have it, as He had originally designed;
and also together truly bonded to and with God as one in that union. They are
in love with each other; then individually and collectively, they are in love
with God, and God is in love with them individually and as a couple.
Look at that triangle again. In this vicious
triangle, there is no break, no leakage anywhere. So connected are these in a
divine threesome! How then can the devil seep in? Impossible! Unthinkable! This
is a relationship that would last forever, a thousand years being way too
short! Personally, I know I should not be caught in any other web!
You have the worldly love-triangle when one of the party is cheating on the other, or when both are cheating on each other, whether mutually or secretly. But this is not the way of a true Christian in a relationship with someone of the opposite sex. You have to think about what God thinks about such a thing. Then it is equally important that you and your partner
should not trust in your strength or wisdom, but on the strength and wisdom of
God at the apex.
When you begin to sort things out by yourselves, and trust in
your own wisdom in taking decisions without God, there comes a leakage in that
love-triangle, and you become easy prey to the devil. Sadly, this was more or less what
happened to Adam and Eve.
But the sad scenario
does not have to be true of your relationship and future marriage. You must
consider the consequences of leaving God out of your marital decisions.
Marriage is a forever thing, so why do it wrongly? Why enter into it with
levity, carelessly? Can you really afford that?
Consider the
potential misery that will eventually follow every wrong decision you make. If
prosperity in all its forms must be sustained in the relationship, then you
both have to look up to God and His Word at all times in everything. If Genesis
Chapter Two must be sustained, then the love-triangle must remain intact all
the time. Consider the following Scriptures:
They charge like
warriors; they scale walls like soldiers. Each one proceeds on his course; they do not alter their path.
They do not jostle one another; each of them marches
straight ahead.
They burst through the city defenses and
do not break ranks…
The earth quakes
before them; the sky reverberates. The sun and the moon grow dark; the stars
refuse to shine (Joel 2:7-8, 10, New English
Translation, emphasis mine).
This
speaks of and re-emphasises the power of unity and focus. As long as you and
your partner do not break ranks, and are focused on each other and on God, you
can overcome all. There is nothing Satan fears more than a united couple –
especially one with God. Stay untied with Him. Stay in that threesome. Stay in
that love-triangle. Stay on course. This way, Genesis Chapter Three cannot strike your
relationship.
But what does it mean for Genesis Chapter Three to strike a relationship? When I come your way again, we shall explore this. In the mean time, you can leave your comments and questions. God bless you!
Thank you so much sir for this.
ReplyDeleteSo God should be the centre of any/every relationship, if not there's tendency for the devil to enter.
Both ends of the triangle are connected to the apex, so both party must be connected to God, and there's no room for a fourth party.
So, what happens when there's indecision from one party of the relationship?
Assuming the man is not committed to the relationship and is still looking for a person that fits his criteria.. so he's kind of in multiple relationships trying to make a decision, yet still trying to connect to God and with current partner?
Thanks for your contribution. However, as to your question, I wish I have a clearer understanding of where you stand, whether ad the man or as the woman asking the question. Notwithstanding however, it is important to note that two cannot work together except they agree. Also you know the Scripture that says light has no fellowship with darkness. Now, you need to know what you want, more like outlining it before you venture into a relationship. As a child of God, whether male or female, what do you want in a partner? Is it in line with the will of God? If yes, then you should be on the lookout for such a person that fits that criteria, instead of dabbling into a relationship with any random person and discovering that you don't "flow" well with the person and then going in search of another while still holding on to the other. What for? Only non-believers would do this. Allow God to guide you through the process of decision making in your relationship, and let your decisions align to His will at all times. God bless 🙏
ReplyDeleteSo we need to be discerning , well noted.
ReplyDeleteHowever, human beings are hypocritical, and you might think you've found the right person, not knowing that the person's outward appearance is completely different from their heart.
I pray God will guide us.
Well said! And amen! God bless your heart!
