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.
