and spiritual involvement. It is said that the first five years of marriage is the most difficult, because it is when a couple will truly see what they are made of. When a couple can get past those initiation years, so to speak, then they can prepare themselves for a lifetime of growth (increase) in every area of their lives. Every area of their marriage is intended

to be blessed. If a couple is not growing in their marriage and there is no increase in experiencing satisfaction, then that marriage is in trouble and on the verge of destruction.

If you have been married for five years plus, then you should be working on improving every area of your marriage by allowing the creator of marriage to lead and guide you in knowledge so that you can see the fruit that has grown through your obedience and dedication. There is truly no such thing as a bad marriage, it is often bad information and bad intentions that bring a couple to a breaking point.

Marriage is good and honorable to God and He wants to multiply (increase) your blessings (Hebrews 13:4). If you truly understood the power that you possess in marriage, you would come to appreciate each other. Every couple who marries with the right intent and truly loves each other is a "Power couple. " You possess a power that cannot be matched by any other source in this universe. It is in the spirit realm that your power will begin to unfold the many blessings that you are entitled to and with each other, you can begin to see it come to fruition.

Nevertheless let every one of you

in particular so love his wife even

as himself; and the wife see that

she reverence her husband

(Ephesians 5:33, KJV).

"Every couple who marries with the right intent and truly

loves each other is a "Power couple. "

You possess a power that cannot be matched by any other source

in this universe."
