FOUNDATION OF MARITAL FAILURE
If the foundation be destroyed, what can the righteous do (Psalm 11:3).
Spiritual pollution has destroyed or demoted many marriages. The satanic pipeline supplying evil fuel to many marriages originate from the foundation of that marriage. The spiritual pollutants causing the problem take its origin from the foundational pollution. God is the only genuine matchmaker since He is the manufacturer of man. Once the foundation is sick, the whole building would be sick. The protective fuses in many marriages have blown up igniting great fires. It would appear as if many are completely helpless. Divorce rates are climbing. "Separated but married" cases are rising. Beloved, the truth is that many marriages need to be delivered from foundational pollution and bondage.
What kind of marriages come under foundational pollution? They include:
Marriages contacted while one was an enemy of God
Marriages originating from accidental pregnancies
Sex before marriages
Marriages after demonic consultations
Marriages enforced by ignorant parents
Marriages established and formalized without divine approval
Marriages in which blood covenants were formed
Marriages based on demonic manipulations and domination
Marriages established on the principles of "it is better than nothing"
Marriages solemnized by satanic rituals
Marriages based on trial and error
Marriages based on physical attraction only
Marriages established by occult means
Marriages based on material interest
Marriages based on satanic prophecy
Marriages established by donation of spouse at a young age
Marriages based on polygamy, etc.
"If the foundation be destroyed, what can the righteous do?"
The righteous can only fall upon what is written in Jer. 32:17: "Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:"
STEPS TO BE TAKEN BY THE RIGHTEOUS MAY INCLUDE:
1. Identification of family foundation
2. Confession of sin and repentance
3. Aggressive and well-targeted prayer
4. Breaking of evil covenant
5. Breaking of curses
6. Restitution
7. Intercession
We have to take steps to clear satanic pollution from our marriages.
We need to allow the Divine Axe to go right down to the root of our marriage and uproot unprofitable plantations.
We need to pray for the deliverance of our marriages from the polluting influences of anti-marriage forces.
We need to paralyze and dismantle every evil pipe releasing pollutants from the foundation of our marriage.
We need to invite the God of the Suddenlies and the God of New Beginnings into our homes.
