Bible Question: Hello every1 I'm new to this forum and have a question. My name is ZIpporah. And I meet a pretty nice guy named Moses. Now in the bible we were married. Does anybody thing that it could be a sign from God. Or maybe just nothing at all. |
Bible Answer: maroon72 I mean you no harm or ill will, please be careful about seeing "signs" in things as to thinking that God is working in your life. The devil can perform "signs" and decieve you, you cannot be sure that what you see is good, or right, or from God. This is not meant to hurt you, this is just a verse about those who were seeking for signs in Jesus' day - Mathew 12:39 But He answered and said to them, "An evil and adulteress generation craves for a sign; and yet no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet." This was about the Jews seeking a sign from Jesus perhaps to see if He was the promised one, the Messiah. You are not after the same thing, but the principle of not seeking for a sign is there. You really have to get to know a person very well before you think that they are the one for you. That takes prayer and knowing that this is what God wants for your life becuase you take the time to see what the person is about and God confirming to you in one way or another that this is the one for you. blessings abound, bowler |
