WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT ... CHOOSING A MATE?

To understand how God feels about this subject, we must examine The Bible.

Bible Titus 2: 3-5 Likewise, teach the older women to be reverent in the way they live, not to be slanderers or addicted to much wine, but to teach what is good.
Then they can train the younger women to love their husbands and children,
to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.

Genesis 2: 18 And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.


Choosing a mate is a decision that should be made carefully, prayerfully, and very seriously. The Lord wants to bring a mate to those who will ask Him and have the patience to wait for His choice. Looking for a man or woman to just keep them from being lonely or just to fill their needs or to be a father or mother to their children should not be the only reasons for desiring a mate. They also need to be concerned about what kind of husband or wife they would be for a mate. These single people are still much in the flesh if they just want their own needs met. They should ask the Lord to fill them with His love and peace.

Being single is an important time to prepare us for marriage. It can also be a time to experience a closer communion with God. As we seek God to cleanse us of the world and help us become the kind of wife or husband that would bless someone, we will soon find that we are not lonely.

Luke 2:23

3: And Moses said unto the people, Remember this day, in which ye came out from Egypt, out of the house of bondage; for by strength of hand the LORD brought you out from this place:there shall no leavened bread be eaten.

4: This day came ye out in the month Abib.
5: And it shall be when the LORD shall bring thee into the land of the Canaanites, and the Hittites, and the Amorites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, that thou shalt keep this service inthis month.

6: Seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, and in the seventh day shall be a feast to the LORD.

7: Unleavened bread shall be eaten seven days; and there shall no leavened bread be seen with thee, neither shall there be leaven seen with thee in all thy quarters.

8: And thou shalt show thy son in that day, saying, This is done because of that which the LORD did unto me when I came forth out of Egypt.

9: And it shall be for a sign unto thee upon thine hand, and for a memorial between thine eyes, that the LORD's law may be in thy mouth: for with a stronghand hath the LORD brought thee out of Egypt.

10: Thou shalt therefore keep this ordinance in his season from year to year.

14: And it shall be when thy son asketh thee in time to come, saying, What is this? that thou shalt say unto him, Bystrength of hand the LORD brought us out from Egypt, from the house ofbondage:

15: And it came to pass, when Pharaoh would hardly let us go, that the LORD slew all thefirstborn in the land of Egypt, both the firstborn of man, and the firstborn of beast: therefore I sacrifice to the LORD all that openeth the matrix, being males; but all the firstborn of my children I redeem.

17: And it came to pass, when Pharaoh had let the people go, that God led them not through the way of the land of the Philistines, although that wasnear; for God said, Lest peradventure the people repent when they see war, andthey return to Egypt:

18: But God led the people about, through the way of the wilderness of the Red sea: and the children of Israel went up harnessed out of the land of Egypt.

19: And Moses took the bones of Joseph with him: for he had straitly sworn the children of Israel, saying, Godwill surely visit you; and ye shall carry up my bones away hence with you.

21: And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:

22: He took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by night, from before the people.
Exodus 14
