Life's Highest Standard

At Power on High Ministries we pursue excellence and high appreciation of marriage and relationships.

We hold ourselves our relationships and our marriage to the highest standard, which most people dare not even dream of doing because of selfishness, independence, willfulness and a desire to be right rather than righteous and longsuffering in all things.

The understanding of the highest standard seems unreachable and untouchable in the 21st century of sin filled and reckless times we all live in.

That is why we must put aside our own agendas and pursue the higher ground. One can choose to have love, mercy and grace for your spouse even when they are unlovely, unlovable, unlikable, undeserving and just plainly the last person on the face of the earth you want to be nice to. Because they look and act more like your worst enemy than the one flesh, covenant partner you once said you would forsake everything for and keep yourself to and for them, and THEM ONLY until death do you part.

Feeling like you have fallen out of love? Empty, desperate, angry, wanting to get even and just plain frustrated? None of these reasons give you the freedom to think of murder or its twin divorce.

The healthiest and happiest relationships and marriages are built on the concept of Scriptural truth,  that love is a choice and not a feeling. Selflessness and sacrifice for another opens the doors and windows of Heaven and pours out such an abundant and flourishing relationship you have only dreamed of.

What you seem to be unable to fix is able to be fixed by the one who formed and fashioned you in your mothers womb and set your feet on the path of life. Don't give the devil a foot hold by thinking divorce is acceptable in your circumstances. First you have to make a decision that  Divorce is not an options, then seek the Fathers heart and will for your spouse and relationship.

The higher standard is simply choosing to have love, mercy and grace for your spouse even when they are or seem to be unlovely, unlovable, unlikable, undeserving. Choosing the Higher Standard for you Marriage is as simple as saying, Father I choose to Love my spouse right now and I forgive them for hurting me. Father forgive me for hurting my spouse and making them feel alone and unloved. Father I ask you to give me the discernment to be my spouses best friend, lover, helper and hiding place where they find comfort and safety. Father place a hedge of protection around our marriage covenant and relationship, so only the voice of the Holy Spirit is heard by all.

Let your dreams come true as you love your wife or respect your husband.

The marriage covenant is commanded to be honored by all for several reasons Hebrews 13:4. First the marriage covenant is referred to as a covenant He (Yahweh) the maker of Heaven and Earth has created, formed and fashioned between husband and wife Genesis 2:24. Second Yahweh the covenant maker and keeper has personally witnessed the marriage covenant between husband and wife Malachi 2:14. Third the marriage covenant between a man and his wife is referred to as the covenant between Yahshua the Messiah and His Church, the set apart assembly Ephesians 5: 22-33. Fourth the marriage covenant relationship with our one flesh spouse is to be fulfilled as Yahshua the Messiah does for the Church, the set apart assembly, His bride which He feeds and cares for and lays down his life for (reconciliation and redemption) Ephesians 5:31. Fifth the Yahweh Head puts all power, authority, ability, provision, equipping and fullness in and around the marriage covenant assuring it of success, compatibility, fruitfulness, and the destiny of future descendants the inheritance of the family Genesis 17:7.
