1. Stay focus on your goals. Don’t allow yourself to get deceived by other men that comes across to you and tell you sweet things that they know you want to hear. Let God guide and direct your steps and decisions in finding you the right person. Have self-confidence and walk with dignity knowing that there are lots of great men out there.
2. Read books on dating, listen to sermons on relationships, marriages, and how to attract the right man into your life. One of the books in which I read was really good and intriguing to me.
It’s called The Sacred Search. Witten by Gary Thomas, Bestselling Author. I learned so much about dating and marriage in this book. Infacted I know without a doubt the Lord led me to buy this book. God was setting me up big time to prepare me for marriage.
The reason why I know this 100% it’s because right after I broke off the engagement with my ex fiancé. At my Church they gave a FREE course for the whole month about dating the right person and getting ready for marriage. One day I was in my bedroom sitting on my bed, it’s like something told me to start reading the book again.
So I picked up the book and I opened the book, it brought me to a page where it said we have to be ready to find love and we won’t find it by sitting down. We have to get up and come out of our comfort zone. So I told the Lord that I’m ready to find the one that He has for me. And one month later I found my husband, God is so great! He was setting me up this whole time.
Can I tell you that God has a great sense of humour! He Does! The engagement that I had with my ex fiancé was totally out of the will of God. You may be saying how so? He was a non-believer, he did not believe in Christ. And I was a believer in Christ, so that makes us unequally yoked. I highly recommend this book for all the ladies who are in search of Mr. Right.
3. Make a list of things that you want to see in your future husband. Then bring them to God in prayer. Be very realistic and honest with God. For Example, in my list I said that my future husband has to be very Godly, kind- hearted, considerate, have a great sense of humour, love kids, be romantic etc…
Note: making a list is very important, if you’re the kind of woman who doesn’t know what you want and keeps dating the same guys and always ends up with a broken heart. Then the dating checklist is perfect for you. The dating checklist is just a guide to help you figure out what you want in a relationship. And it’s able to steer you into the right direction in finding your ideal partner.
After I broke off my engagement with my ex- fiancé I was led to make a Dating Checklist. Something that I never did before. Approximately one year after I made my checklist I met my husband, and the majority of the things that were on my list he has, including being Godly. This is why having a checklist is so crucial.
4. Have a marriage mindset not a relationship mindset. I always knew that I wanted to get married from my teenage years. I never was just satisfied with a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, I always knew something was very special between a man and a wife. So I was craving to live a married life, therefore I was building up a wifely character from an early age.
5. Never let your guards down. Stay focus and know what you want. Don’t allow your mind to wander off and think about sexually impure things. Keep your mind pure by feeding it on God’s words. Do whatever it takes to stay focus and not get distracted. Fellowshiping with other believers is good like Bible study. Pray constantly, do praise and worship to keep your mind active and on the things of God.
Matthew 6:33 says “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added onto you.” When we seek God with all our hearts, souls and mind then he will give us what we need according to His will.
In conclusion Finding the right partner can be a hefty wait and cause frustration. Therefore, in this season of waiting make sure to prepare yourself for the right person to come into your life. You can do this by gaining knowledge on how to be a Godly wife, Reading books on marriage and how to be a submissive wife. And also work on becoming the best version of yourself, developing Godly characters.
