During a deliverance session, a young lady made a shocking confession: “We’re five ladies sent to this church to marry five brothers who are passionate about God. One is already married to one of us, and there are four more to target.” This revelation highlighted the importance of being cautious about demonic manipulation, especially in the form of “demonic marriage.”
Friend, beware of demonic marriage (Deuteronomy 7:2-3). One of the junctures that the devil often waits for people is the juncture marriage. At times, the devil won’t disturb you, gathering all the fire and revelations for your life and destiny. He knows that joining you to a wrong spouse would waste all of these investments in your life (2 Corinthians 6:14-17).
A lot of people are wise and discerning until they get to the juncture of marriage (Proverbs 7:7). They are patient and obedient until when they are to choose a life partner. This is why you must not be overconfident. You must not also be presumptuous. You must allow God to guide you. You should also listen to the authority figures in your life (Proverbs 24:6).
Demonic marriage is an agenda of the devil these last days (Judges 16:18-20). While God is working to bring you together with someone that you can do destiny safely and successfully with, the devil’s plan is to frustrate your marriage and truncate God’s plan and purpose for your life. You must not allow him. You must stand your ground (Ephesians 6:10-12).
A demonic marriage would not normally look like one (2 Corinthians 11:13-15). Most people would have entered into one before realising it. This is why you need discernment. You also need a third eye. You need someone who’s not in love or emotional like you to guide you. He thinks both spiritually and rationally (Judges 14:3). You cannot do it alone.
Sometimes, marital delays are God’s way of preventing you from a wrong marriage (Ecclesiastes 3:11). Some singles have entered into satanic traps due to haste. If you would marry right, avoid haste. Wait for God. Carry the right people along. Double check your convictions (Isaiah 28:16). Don’t waive off warning signals. God would be faithful enough to show or alert you. But would you listen?
