The union of two equally yoked believers is a blessing from God. From the beginning, God's compassion moved him to provide a mate for Adam. When Adam named her he said she was the bone of his bone and the flesh of his flesh.

The right union ordained by God brings Him glory. Pastor Lilly also reminds us often that the road to marriage begins with each person, male and female, functioning first as healthy, whole individuals. This means that God celebrates not just marriage between a male and a female, but singleness and wholeness as well. (I Corinthians 7:27) He further emphasizes that there should be no competition between those who are and choose to marry or those who are single by choice or circumstances like timing, preparation or personal choice. The key is remembering that we each are created to give God pleasure by working together with Him to impact our generation and help make our society better for everyone. In marriage we should learn to practice the power of agreement even with our unique differences. (Matthew 18:19)

As a single person we learn and practice the power of agreement as we connect with our individual selves as well as others! Still our ultimate goal is to learn to function well both inside and outside of marriage! We are each a necessary part of the body of Christ here to represent the Kingdom of God in the earth realm until the end of time!
