Asia Conference 2008 (Electives): Choosing The Right Partner In Life

Date: 19 November 2008
Speaker: Wu Yuzhuang, Audrey Ng
Venue: City Harvest Church (Singapore)


God does not choose for you your mate. You do the choosing yourself.

Proverbs 18:22
He who finds a wife finds a good thing,
And obtains favor from the Lord.

Proverbs 25:2
These also are proverbs of Solomon which the men of Hezekiah king of Judah copied:
It is the glory of God to conceal a matter,
But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.

The Bible order is always in this order: God > Family > Job

Genesis 26:25
So he built an altar there and called on the name of the Lord, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac’s servants dug a well.

God gives each of us a marriage partner to help us and bless us in our walk with Him.

Genesis 2:20
So Adam gave names to all cattle, to the birds of the air, and to every beast of the field. But for Adam there was not found a helper comparable to him.

How do you know if a person can be a lifelong partner?

1) Physical Attraction

Keep yourself fit and healthy.
Make effort to groom yourself.

2) Communication Attraction

Communication is the basis of life.
It can be carried out in 3 ways: By word (conversation), by gesture (actions / body language), by spirit (2 Cor 6:14-15 / belief).

3) Spiritual Attraction

3 C's: Christian, Commitment to the Lord, Compatible Calling.
