Summary
Genesis 2:21-24 reveals God's design for marriage as a covenant between one man and one woman. The sermon teaches three foundational laws—priority (leaving parents), covenant (permanent commitment), and oneness (becoming one flesh)—showing that biblical marriage glorifies God and requires protection from Satan's attacks through faithful practice.
Highlights
First comes the wedding, then comes the war. Satan shows up for the very first time immediately after the very first wedding because Satan understands something that we often don't understand, which is the power of marriage.
You have an enemy in your marriage, but it's not your spouse. It's Satan. And here's what he does. He uses the world to appeal to your flesh to get you to destroy your own marriage.
The same spirit that raised Jesus Christ from the dead dwells in you and is for your marriage. If God can raise Jesus from the dead, he can raise your marriage from the dead.
