Accountability goes a long way toward sustaining marital commitment. There must be people in your life that you hold yourself accountable to. This way, sustainability is easily achieved at every point in life, especially when it comes to marriage.

Hearing God is not as difficult as many people presume. Interestingly, God is willing to speak to us more than we ever desire to hear him speak; the fact that he gave us ears and mouths established this amazing fact.

In ascertaining marital conviction, it is equally important to show you how simple it is to hear God, as I understand that the challenge that many singles have is how to hear God for themselves on important issues like career and marriage.

Having checked for alignment of purpose and compared your suitor with what God has told you ahead of time, it is important to take a step further to check for compatibility.

Marital conviction is so easy to come by, if we all come to the point where we have a consistent working relationship with God.

Alignment of purpose does not mean that yourself and your intending spouse must have the same life mission; it simply means that both of you must have clarity of the problem each of you is created to solve and see how you can work with one another to achieve it. This way each of you will have less internal conflict and be able to resist social pressure, thereby synergizing to achieve a high level of productivity.

Manipulating a person into embarking on a marital relationship with you can only work for a short period of time, not a lifetime. Hence, it is important that you shun manipulation. Don’t be the only one who is convinced about your marital relationship; give your intending spouse enough time to get the same conviction to journey with you forever, and neither should you be manipulated into a marital relationship by the conviction of your intending partner.

All marital relationships will experience a dual season of highs and lows—the good and the bad times. What keeps you going when the going gets tough is your conviction. Conviction simply means the act of being persuaded about your decision.

For commitment to be continuous in your marital relationship, there are certain conditions that must be fulfilled; such conditions are what I will be ditching out this month by God’s grace. Please stay committed to the use of this series.
