I take this woman/man to have and to hold from this day forward; forsaking all others until death do we part. How many of us take those vows in the eyes of God and short after break them. Somewhere we have forgotten that Marriage is a Covenant not a Contract. It is a Covenant between two people and God. God doesn't break Covenant.
Shortly, after we were married my husband begins cheating. His affections for me seemed to escape into a distance. I am a person of prayer and God began to show me my husband and the cheating began to materialize. I can't describe to anyone how painful it is to have someone you love to totally ignore you as a person. Sometimes when he knew he was caught he would ask for forgiveness. I forgave him many times only for him to turn around and do it again. I made several attempt to get rid of him but God always reminded me to forgive him and not give up. I was to surrender my cheating husband to Him.
I talked to God about Matthew 19:9. God reply was yes that is what I said and yes you can use that Scripture and go to Court with it. My Word will forever stand. However, there is another Word Malachi 2:16, I hate divorce. How many times must I forgive? Matthew 18:21. God reminded me of many times that I had asked forgiveness and He had granted forgiveness. God asked me to give my husband grace. God reminded me of the times before I was married that I cheated with someone that was married. Isn't it funny how thing come back. God is not marked your sins will return many folds.
My husband still hasn't stopped cheating however, I have turned him over to the Lord and God will deal with him when God is ready. We believe the Word when we say that we can do all things through Christ who strengthen us. There is nothing to hard for God. Do you believe that? Try it before take God's matter into the World's Court. I believe the Word I intend to live by.
Society says that if they are caught cheating or if you grow apart or if you aren't happy then you can divorce them. However that isn't what God said. Where are the Scriptures to validate those feeling? Be sure that you have wise godly counseling and seek God for yourself and make sure that you dont trust your feeling for the answers.
