Marriage as it relates to the covenant with God is like a vehicle. God is the total protection plan on the vehicle. There are 2 sides to a vehicle, a left and a right. Sometimes one tire gets misaligned which causes the vehicle to drift off the road. God still has total protection on the vehicle , “That’s what he promised”.
Why is it important for the right tire whether it is slightly misaligned or perfectly aligned to stay aligned as best a possible. Because once the left tire gets back in alignment, the car will drift back to the road. If the right tire is significantly misaligned the car stops dead in its track and stays off the road.
Meanwhile all this time the car has been under the total protection plan of God. Because both tires are still on the vehicle the vehicle can be covered. The vehicle cannot fulfill its intended purpose without tires and you certainly cannot call on the total protection plan with missing tires. Anyone who has owned a vehicle is well aware of how often they are misaligned.
Most people notice it immediately because the vehicle will pull either left or right causing them to annoyingly pull in the opposite direction. After a short time of dealing with this most people will do the smart thing and go get the tire aligned. Meaning they have to take the vehicle, not just the tire and invest the time and energy to get it aligned.
The moral of this post is when we entered a covenant of marriage God instructed each of us Man and Woman to put him first individually. He will provide the protection around the marriage so long as you are following his will and guidance. Don’t drive your vehicle without a total protection plan. And don’t ignore misalignments because they are costly in the end.
God Bless 🙏🏾
