Does God choose your spouse or do you with God's guidance?

Amos 3:3 can two walk together unless they agree?

In so much that God can reveal about your potential spouse the other party has freewill to choose.


Then because of High calling purposes. Eg Samson there was a reason his parents didn't want him to marry "Delilah clan." Samson exercised his freewill and then the consequences.

How many weddings in scripture were said to be 'of the Lord'?

Judges 14

3 Then his father and mother said to him, “Is there no woman among the daughters of your brethren, or among all my people, that you must go and get a wife from the uncircumcised Philistines?”

And Samson said to his father, “Get her for me, for she pleases me well.”

4 But his father and mother did not know that it was of the Lord—that He was seeking an occasion to move against the Philistines. For at that time the Philistines had dominion over Israel.

We often hear single Christians say I'm waiting on the spouse God is preparing for me. What does this imply? A prearranged marriage by Christian elders? A spouse that seems to supernaturally fall into your life? Does this eliminate dating as in God will send that individual within His timing?

I personally believe it is a mix of God's sovereignty, free will of the human, and relationship between God and human.

Basically, date with God's guidance.

My opinion would be that we have to make an effort to date though this is by our free will, making decisions that we need to ask for God's wisdom and guidance on.

Yes God can and does. When I prayed and asked I got "what do you want". Since hind sight is 20/20 at that moment I asked I believed I really wanted to know what He wanted. Yet looking back I know I had already made up my mind. I know preachers that praying with the person they were praying with. She leaves and God told him "she will be your wife". He was shocked at that thinking.. a she does not even know I exist lol.. in that way. Yet her heart was already for him. They got married.

Oh I remember I had this friend.. oh best friend. She would always tell me AFTER they were married God told her they would get married. I said anyone can do that. So one day this guy comes to our Church ..new. She said to me see him? Him and this other girl say Shelly we knew she said they will both get married. Man they didn't even know each other. She was always right.. that was something else praise GOD. It was from the ones she told me always believers.

God choose me to be single. I really feel like Jeremiah, we are already in the birth pangs of the end times.

The Bible says this is not for everyone and also it says that people were marrying and giving in marriage right up until the end like in the days of Noach. 👍

Noach, Noiach, Nauach, Nauah, or Noah

You forgot "Noe" in Greek.

I had to look up Hoach. Why did you choose to use Noach instead of Noah?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noach_(parashah)
Noach, Noiach, Nauach, Nauah, or Noah (נֹחַ‎, Hebrew for the name "Noah", the third word, and first distinctive word, of the parashah) is the second weekly Torah portion (פָּרָשָׁה‎, parashah) in the annual Jewish cycle of Torah reading. It constitutes Genesis 6:9–11:32. The parashah tells the stories of the Flood and Noah's Ark, of Noah's subsequent drunkenness and cursing of Canaan, and of the Tower of Babel.

I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.
Psalm 34:4

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3 v 5&6

I didn't forget that. I don't know Greek at all! Wikipedia forgot.
