Why Do Some Marriages Last, and Some Don't? | Matthew 19:6-8

[00:00:00] We'll Truth Daily. This is Daily Truths with Dave Ahlman. Why Then Did Moses Command Want to Give a Certificate Of Divers, And Then To Send Her Away? This is Out of The Book Of Deuteronomy. And Indeed, The Lord permitted Diverses to

[00:00:42] Happened But Here's The Thing. Moses Never Commanded Someone To Give A Wife A Certificate Of Divers, And By The Way The Certificate Made It Much More Difficult To Get A Divers Than Just Saying To

[00:00:55] One's Wife Hey You're Out Here. I Don't Like The Fact That You Burnt The Toaster Whatever. A Certificate Of Divers According to Moses Made It More Difficult Because It Had To Be Run Through

[00:01:04] A Court Of Law Verified and Validated Before It Happened. But Here The Fersies Again Are Trying To Trapped Jesus By Saying Why Did Moses Command That A Certificate Of Divers Are To Be Given Now Notice Jesus' Response Here. He said them, Because Of Your Hardness Of

[00:01:21] Heart Moses Permitted Or Allow You To The Voice Your Wise. Now What's Jesus Saying There? Out of The Hardness Of One's Heart, Meaning A Heart That's Fill With Deceit With Loss, With Selfishness With Greed With Selfish Intentions Yes Out Of The Greed In Selfishness And Hardness

[00:01:41] Of Heart One Oftentimes Would Carry Out Divers And Moses Permitted It. However, Listen To This But This Was Not The Way It Was From The Beginning. In other words, When God instituted marriage Through Adam and Eve, His Desire, His Intention Is That A Man And A Woman Would

[00:02:02] Remain Committed Their Entire Life. However, Because The Sinfulness Of All Of Us, And Because The Hardness Of Heart, The Selfishness of Greed, The Last, The Selfish Intentions People Oftentimes Get A Divers. Let me tell you a story about a lady that I visited with recently.

[00:02:22] She was married some 60 years ago to a man who after they got married, she discovered that she had found him unfaithful to be unfaithful up to 15 times in their first year of marriage. Guess What? The Trust Was Compromised And She Anded Up Diversing In. That's a biblical

[00:02:42] divorce. She Anded Up Mering Another Man Who At First Was Just Fine But Then He Got Physical Abusive. Right? And After While Of tolerating it, So Long She Could Tolerate It No longer And She

[00:02:55] Anded Up Getting A Divers In Both Situations. Those are What I Would Call Biblical Reasons For Divorce. So In The Case Of Abuse, Neglect, Abandonment, Adultery, One Can Surely And Certainly Procure A Divers. However, Ultimately, God's Will Is A Couples Stay Together. Now You're Probably

[00:03:19] Think Well Pastor Day What If A Person Is In An Abuse Of Relationship? Are You staying? They Need To Stay There And Tolerate It And Take It Not It All. In Those kind of situations,

[00:03:29] They Have To Do The Right Thing Which Is To Protect Themselves And Be Safe. Alright So What Does It Mean Then? To Have A Marriage That Is Built On Trust? It Means To Put Away Hardness Of Heart, Selfishness, Loss, Selfish Intensions,

[00:03:46] Greed, And All These Different Things To Put Them To Death And To Live In Marriage With These Three Words. And Again I'm Identifying Three Different Ways In Which We Love One Another. First of all, The Obvious Way Is To Love Each Other From The Heart.

[00:04:02] That Means To Over Look Faults, Short Cummings, Weaknesses To Not Focus On That, But To Focus On One Strings. And Encourage That Out Of Each Other. That's The Way We Demonstrate, Articulate And Show Love In A Marriage. Secondly To Be Sacrificial In That Relationship.

[00:04:22] That Means Listened To This To Put The Other Persons Need First. I've Done So Much Marital Counseling Down Through The Years With People, Where They Were So Selfish And They Come Into My Office And They Say He Or She Doesn't

[00:04:36] Mean My Needs. It Was All About Them. And So You Put The Needs Of Your Mate, A Head Of Your Own. This Was What Paul Said In The Book Of Ephesians To Consider Others Need

[00:04:46] More Important Than Your Own. No Better Place For That To Be Displayed Than In Marriage. So Love, Sacrifice And Finally Service. In Pre-Marital Counseling, I Would Tell People Try To Out

[00:05:00] Serve One Another. Wake Up In The Morning With The Ability And The Attitude To Say How Can I Serve You Today? How Are You Gonna Serve Me Today? How Are You Gonna Be My Needs Today?

[00:05:11] Rather How Can I Serve You Today? So In The Short Video, We've Covered A Lot Of Crowd. Right? And I Hope This Is Alphol. I Hope This Is Encouraging. And Again If You've Been Married For A Long Time And You Have What Many Would Consider A Successful

[00:05:28] Marriage Passes On Your Kids or Grandkids, They Probably Need To Hear What I Have To Say As Well, Not From My Heart But From The Heart Of The Word Of God. Have A Great Day In The Lord Jesus Christ And That Is Today's Daily Truth.
