Day 5: Marriage Is Not the Goal—God Is

Five-day devotional based on the message by Pastor Jeff Maness on February 23, 2025. Watch/listen to the full message by clicking here.
Devotional
Many people view marriage as the ultimate goal in life, but God calls us to something greater—His kingdom. While marriage is a beautiful and God-ordained gift, it is not our final destination. Our true purpose is to serve and glorify God, whether single or married. If we make marriage our idol, we will always be disappointed. But if we make God our focus, we will always be fulfilled.

Bible Verse
"Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need." — Matthew 6:33 (NLT)

Reflection Question
Am I seeking marriage more than I am seeking God?

Quote
"What you are being called to is more than marriage. Marriage may be on your journey, but it’s not your destination. There is something Kingdom-building in your path, and that’s what you’re working towards." — Lauren Windle

Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me to seek You above all things. Whether single or married, may my life be centered on Your mission and glory. Amen.
