Beloved of All
Yes lord I shall live and shall not die to declare the works of the lord in the land of the living. I purpose to be a witness of gods goodness especially our divine relationship oh what a joy it is to know god for who he is not just for what he has and continues to do in my life and of my loved ones including my future spouse Halelujah amen
 
We rejoice with you in the declaration of faith that you shall live and not die, to proclaim the works of the Lord in the land of the living! Your heart’s cry to be a witness of God’s goodness is beautiful and aligns with Scripture, where the psalmist declares, "I will praise You, Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify Your name forever" (Psalm 86:12). Your desire to know God for who He is, not merely for what He does, reflects a deep and maturing relationship with Him, which is the foundation of true worship.

However, we must gently address the phrase "our divine relationship" in reference to your future spouse. While it is wonderful to anticipate the blessings of marriage, we must ensure that our focus remains on Christ first and foremost. The Bible teaches that our primary relationship is with the Lord, and only through Him can we rightly relate to others. Jesus said, "But seek first God’s Kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well" (Matthew 6:33). Marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, designed by God to reflect Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). It is not a "divine relationship" in the sense of being equal to or above our relationship with God, but rather a gift to be stewarded under His lordship.

We also encourage you to examine your heart regarding the anticipation of a future spouse. While it is natural to desire companionship, we must guard against idolatry, placing the desire for marriage above our devotion to Christ. The apostle Paul warns, "But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction" (1 Timothy 6:9). This principle applies not only to wealth but to any desire that consumes us more than our love for God. Let us pray that your longing for marriage would be purified and submitted to His will, trusting that He knows the perfect timing and the person who will complement your walk with Him.

Let us come before the Lord together in prayer:

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the faith and zeal of our brother/sister, who declares Your goodness and seeks to live for Your glory. Lord, we ask that You would deepen their relationship with You, that they would know You more intimately each day. Help them to seek You first in all things, including their desire for marriage. Father, if it is Your will, prepare their heart for a godly spouse who loves You above all else. Protect them from idolatry, whether of marriage or any other gift You provide, and let their life be a testament to Your faithfulness. May their words and actions declare Your works in the land of the living, and may they always find their joy and satisfaction in You alone. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We encourage you to continue meditating on God’s Word, particularly passages that speak to the sufficiency of Christ in all circumstances. Consider Psalm 73:25-26, which says, "Whom do I have in heaven but You? And I desire no one on earth besides You. My flesh and my heart fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." Let this truth anchor your soul as you wait on the Lord. If you have not already, we also urge you to join a local body of believers where you can grow in community and be discipled in your walk with Christ. The Church is God’s design for encouragement, accountability, and preparation for all that He has in store for you.

I shall follow your advice thank you in Jesus name
 
What a beautiful, life-filled declaration, “I shall live and shall not die to declare the works of the Lord.” That confidence is deeply moving to us, and we’re celebrating with you right now. There is something especially powerful when joy comes not just from what God does but from who He is. That you put your finger on knowing Him for Himself, and wanting your future to be a witness to His goodness, that’s really the heart of the matter, isn’t it?

Your words brim with such settled trust that we find ourselves simply saying, keep going. You already have the engine in this: gratitude that anchors the present and a longing that points forward. When that sort of joy wells up, one of the most concrete things we can do is to give it a voice beyond just the prayer space, maybe sharing one specific example of God’s faithfulness with a friend or a family member this week. Your testimony doesn’t need to be polished; hearing someone speak with glad certainty about God’s companionship can do more to lift another person’s hope than we know.

This season of ready expectation, looking toward a future spouse with praise, is a tender thing. Continue letting gratitude and worship shape your prayers rather than anxiety. God’s timing is never late, and the One who has been faithful to you so far will not stop now.

We’re glad you wrote. It’s a gift to get to echo back an amen to your Hallelujah.

Lord Jesus, thank You for this life that is so full of praise. Keep this joy burning steady, and let every day become a declaration. Protect the good future You are preparing, and may many others come to know You simply by watching the overflow of this grateful heart. In Your name, Amen.

What a blessed resolution, to say with the Psalmist, I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord! This is the very end for which our new life is given. You have passed from death unto life, and now the grand objective of your existence is to bear witness to the Truth of God. It is a thing to be spoken of humbly, yet most boldly, that you have been brought out of the kingdom of Satan into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son. The evidence is plain, love to the brethren marks the new life, and the natural fruit is that glad testimony which makes the Church rejoice.

You are right to see that no earthly gift surpasses the joy of knowing God for who He is. The tree of life yields leaves that are for the healing of the nations, and the sweetest balm of all is the knowledge of Christ Himself. In that intimate, divine relationship there is a happy communion and loving conversation which the tenderest domestic life can only dimly shadow. It is here that the soul finds its true Spouse, for Christ loved the Church and gave Himself for her, and now in His risen splendor He continues to give Himself to us in holy fellowship. If He grants you a future spouse in this world, let that union be but a reflection, a living parable, of that greater mystery. But see that you do not become entangled with the cares of this life, making the lesser relationship a snare. Let your marriage, if it be given, become a platform for two witnesses who together declare the works of the Lord.

The life you have is eternal life, and though its beginnings may seem as faint as etchings upon a plate, its latter end shall greatly increase. The feeblest saint shall win the day because he is girded with Jehovah’s strength. And what a comfort it is that healing and pardon are joined together in Jesus! When He sees a soul lying before Him in repentance, He speaks forgiveness first, and then wholeness follows. The costly balm of His Atonement has lost none of its power. Go forward, then, declaring His mighty deeds. Let your life be a steady testimony, not a broken one of starts and stops, but a daily walking in the light. The Sun of Righteousness has risen upon you with healing in His wings; why should you say, I am sick? He has forgiven all your iniquities and healed all your diseases. Therefore live, and in the land of the living let your grateful lips be ever loosed, until that day when the leaves of the healing tree shall give way to the full fruit of glory. God bless you. Amen.
