Why Satan Loves to Attack Marriage

Prov.6:32-33
32 He who commits adultery lacks sense; he who does it destroys himself.

33 He will get wounds and dishonor, and his disgrace will not be wiped away.
If you do not think about this, maybe after you read this, you will stop and think about "Why Satan loves to attack marriage"! When God made man and woman and surveyed all His creation, He said "It is good"! Marriage was instituted for man by God. It is a covenant, between one man and one woman, meant to last until one dies. Men, your wife is not your slave. You should love her, take care of her and cherish her just as Christ loves the church. Wives, the husband is the head of the home, you are to obey him, trust him, see to his needs and love him with all your heart. When families put Christ first, they are walking as Christ would have us walk. We live by the principles God has commanded in His word. We are moral and walk by faith. Satan knows when man follows God, he is defeated! When we stray from worship, God is indeed offended but Satan sees an opening to attack. What begins as temptation burst forth into sin! When man and wife start to consider self alone, not God and not marriage partnership. Satan is there to attack! Make no mistake, we are engaged in spiritual warfare against Satan. He is cunning and He will take advantage of your mistakes.
Gen.2:7 then the LORD God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature
Gen.2:18 Then the LORD God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him."
Gen.:21-25
21 So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and while he slept took one of his ribs and closed up its place with flesh.

22 And the rib that the LORD God had taken from the man he made into a woman and brought her to the man.
23 Then the man said, "This at last is bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man."
24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.
25 And the man and his wife were both naked and were not ashamed.
Eph.5:22,-6:4
22 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.

23 For the husband is the head of the wife even as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and is himself its Savior.
24 Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit in everything to their husbands.
25 Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her,
26 that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,
27 so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.
28 In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.
29 For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church,
30 because we are members of his body.
31 "Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."
32 This mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church.
33 However, let each one of you love his wife as himself, and let the wife see that she respects her husband.
Some men wear the conquest of women as banners of manhood. No where in God's word is this implied! Satan is the one who perverts this to trap men into sin! It is clear, God's design for marriage is one of deep commitment to each other for life! God has gone into great detail to give us His commands for us to have happy marriages. We only have trouble when we look to the world for answers instead of our Creator!
Lord, I pray for the ones who are caught up in the lies of Satan. The worldly view that supports having many sexual conquest, is a lie straight from hell. Your word is clear that fornicators and adulterers will not inherit Your kingdom. To God, whose is able, strengthen us, comfort us, give us peace and direction through His glorious word. Amen
After you fall into temptation and then sin, there is hope for forgiveness if you repent! If not, the punishment is severe. The one who stands on the promise of the Lord will be at peace but you, sinner, will fall hard!
Matt.5:27-28
27 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.'

28 But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
Matt.15:19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander
1Cor.6:9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality
1 Cor.6:15-18
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never!
16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, "The two will become one flesh."
17 But he who is joined to the Lord becomes one spirit with him.
18 Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
1 Thess.4:3-5
3For this is the will of God, your sanctification:that you abstain from sexual immorality;
4 that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor,
5 not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God;
Heb.13:4 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous
No hope!
Heb.10:26-27
26 For if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,
27 but a fearful expectation of judgment, and a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries.
Hope!
1John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Look to Christ!
Titus 2:14 who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

I will be praying for you!
