Be rational when making a decision for a life partner than emotionally engulfing your self in marriage, Apostle Professor Raymond Mujeyi has warned the youths.
“Do not get into slavery with your eyes open, there are some red flags that you see on your love partner during courtship that you should never ignore or be blind to,” Apostle Professor Raymond Mujeyi.
In his message to young people during the first Sunday service in the month of April, Revival International Ministries Founder, Apostle Professor Raymond Mujeyi, has encouraged young people not to be overwhelmed by love to an extent of forgetting to pay attention to other key areas of life such as the future of the relationship and the capability of the love partner to build the family.
“It becomes a problem if you just focus on love alone without looking at the future of the relationship. Love alone is not enough let me tell you.1 Timothy 5:8 says, “But if anyone does not provide for his relatives and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse that an unbeliever.
“Love is also about caring and being responsible. You cannot continue to be in love with someone while seeing that this is the captivity that I am walking into. There are some red flags that you see during courtship that you should not ignore. As young people you should evaluate if your love partner will be responsible for you and the family in the future.
“The problem will come if you get married to a person who has no future and who is not responsible that’s when you will see that you will even struggle to get money for medications for example during the time when the wife is expecting. Being a responsible man is not just in many tongues but in being responsible,” he said.
Meanwhile, young people who shared their expressions in relation to the message agreed to the sentiments saying that being responsible begins during courtship.
Prince said “Yes, it is true, as young men we should be responsible for our love partners in small things such as having their nails and hair done, even airtime but ladies should not demand. As for me I believe that it is not a must but a real man who is responsible automatically knows that it should be done,” he said.
Sheila Mpofu said “As for me I would advise my fellow ladies who are on their way into marriages not to be blind for sure. If a man is not responsible while you are still a boy and a girl, chances are very high that even when you are married, he will not be responsible,” she said.
