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.

1: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2: See, I have called by name Bezaleel the son of Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

3: And I have filled him with the spirit of God, in wisdom, and in understanding, and in knowledge, and in all manner of workmanship,

4: To devise cunning works, to work in gold, and in silver, and in brass,

5: And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in carving of timber, to work in all manner of workmanship.

6: And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab, the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and in the hearts of all that are wise heartedI have put wisdom, that they may make all that I have commanded thee;

7: The tabernacle of the congregation, and the ark of the testimony, and the mercy seat that isthereupon, and all the furniture of the tabernacle,

8: And the table and his furniture, and the pure candlestick with all his furniture, and the altar of incense,

9: And the altar of burnt offering with all his furniture, and the laver and his foot,

10: And the cloths of service, and the holy garments for Aaron the priest, and the garments of his sons, to minister in the priest's office,

11: And the anointing oil, and sweet incense for the holy place: according to all that I have commanded thee shall they do.

12: And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
13: Speak thou also unto the children of Israel, saying, Verily my sabbaths ye shall keep: for it is a sign between meand you throughout your generations; that ye may know that I am the LORD thatdoth sanctify you.

14: Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

15: Six days may work be done; but in the seventh is the sabbath of rest, holy to the LORD: whosoever doeth any work in the sabbathday, he shall surely be put to death.

16: Wherefore the children of Israel shall keep the sabbath, to observe the sabbath throughout their generations, for a perpetualcovenant.

17: It is a sign between me and the children of Israel for ever: for in six days the LORDmade heaven and earth, and on the seventh day he rested, and was refreshed.

18: And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables oftestimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
