Should You Be Dating With A Purpose?

Dating With A Purpose

Simply because you are a Christian does not mean you cannot date. However, you must be dating with a purpose. How can you make yourself available to your future spouse if you do not date? Now our dating standards are different. We don’t date without a purpose, we usually allow men to start courting us.

Why Are You Dating with A Purpose?

Likewise, we always dream of falling in love, getting married and living happily ever after is a common goal for the majority of it. It is ultimately what God wants us to do because it means that children can grow up in a safe and loving environment. Relationships take commitment, patience and time to maintain and sometimes we need a little help. So we must date with a purpose as a Christian relationship, be series and commitment during the process.

You Should Be Dating with A Purpose?

Therefore, when you are dating with a purpose, you are allowing yourself to be courted by a man. Which is the process of trying to attract and woo a romantic partner to create a long-term relationship or to marry the partner. When a man brings a woman flowers or candy and tries to woo her, this is an example of courting her.

You should go out, have fun, meet new people and enjoy life. I’m not saying you should have sex with different but it is okay to date. As a result, you cannot meet your future husband if you stay in the house all the time. In fact, you must go out to different places with clean fun, it doesn’t have to be a bar or a club. Simply you can go out with friends to have brunch or dinner. Or you can be at a walking park, at the gym or even running errands; you might meet your future husband. 

You Should Make Yourself Noticeable to Be Dating With A Purpose

Ladies, I know there are some of you that are saying I don’t have to do all of that to find a husband. Overall you must make yourself noticeable to your future husband. For example, if you are anything like me, you know a man should find his wife. Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor from the LORD.”

Ephesians 5:21-25

21 Submit yourselves to one another because of your reverence for Christ.

22 Wives, submit yourselves to your husbands as to the Lord. 23 For a husband has authority over his wife just as Christ has authority over the church; and Christ is himself the Savior of the church, his body. 24 And so wives must submit themselves completely to their husbands just as the church submits itself to Christ.

25 Husbands, love your wives just as Christ loved the church and gave his life for it.

For instance, you must submit to your husband as he submits to Christ. Ladies if that man is not submitted to Christ, then who are you submitting to the devil? That’s why you should be dating with a purpose with a man of God. 

What if You Do Not Go Anywhere and You Are A Homebody?

Trust me I know I’m the same way, I love my quiet time at home for me to relax. Furthermore, there are many Christian dating apps for you to use. But before you start dating, make a list of everything you want in a husband so you can manifest him into your life. You should also take beautiful pictures of yourself to attract Godly and quality men. 

Take time to write your Bio or description of yourself, instead of looking at how good the man looks, focus or look through his eyes to see what is on the inside, not the outer appearance of him. Ask God to reveal his true intentions to you, date and get to know him, be patient and take your time to get to him.
