Preparing for Covenantal Relationships

I've read several posts about kingdom marriages SUDDENLY being established in this next season- pop up marriages if you will. Singles who desire to be married are being  encouraged to prepare themselves for healthy relationships and marriage. So the question is how? How do we prepare ourselves for healthy relationships and marriage?

I believe some of the ways we prepare for healthy relationships are: 1. Deepening  relationships with God and oneself. Spend quality time alone with oneself and God. Get to know oneself and God better. Pray, worship, serve, give, meditate, and journal. Know your spiritual gifts, natural talents, learned skills, personality type, motivators, hot-buttons and triggers, communication style, etc.  2. Making peace with your immediate family. Resolve mommy and daddy issues, squash sibling rivalry and strife, and reconcile God-ordained relationships. 3. Pursuing your passion, purpose and dreams. 4. Eating well and  exercising. 5. Practicing biblical financial stewardship principles.

In order to enjoy healthy relationships one must be determined to live her best life and be the best she can be. For many, the marriage and wedding prep process is reduced to finding the dress, hall, caterer, flowers, etc. Too often we don't know who will provide 1: Supernatural healing and deliverance session(s). Most need "come out" before "I do"; 2: Pre-marital counseling. Let's talk about sex baby! And money, spirituality, communication styles, conflict resolution, religion, traditions, household management,  roles, responsibilities,  etc. And then let's talk about sex, money and conflict resolution again. And again. 3: Prophetic presbytery. Who will prophetically speak the Word of the Lord over and into your lives and marriage during the wedding and/or reception? Record these words. War with these words. Trials will come. Hearing God's heart concerning you and your marriage will encourage you during those trials. 4: Patriarchal blessing. I'm not referring to the LDS concept.  This is a biblical concept modeled after the blessing given by Jacob to each of his sons prior to his death. This could be given by a natural father/parent, father/parent- figure, pastor, spiritual father/mother, or all of the above. Grace and peace! Invite me to your weddings! 💃🏽🥳🙏🏽🙌🏽
