Marriage vows

Today we are gathered here to witness the union of Christ and me. In the presence of the watching universe, we will now hear the vows.


Jesus: I have loved you with an everlasting love, therefore with loving kindness I have drawn you.

Me : Lord, I have not love you, I have been selfish all my life 

Jesus:  before I formed you in the womb, i knew you and I set you apart for myself 

Me: Lord, even now I don't know you, for I do always things that displease you 

Jesus:  this is love : not that we loved God ,but that He loved you and sent Son as an atoning sacrifice for your sins 

Me: oh Lord, I'm a great sinner, I'm unworthy of your love.

Jesus: while you were yet sinning, I died for you.

Me: Lord, my sins are red like scarlet, I am ashamed of my past

Jesus:  though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow ,though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool.

Me: Lord, I only come to you when I need stuff, I  am selfish 

Jesus: Ask and it shall be given, seek, and you shall find; knock and it shall opened to you 

Me: Oh Lord you love me. I have never experienced a greater love. Despite my past, despite my brokenness, my unfaithfulness for I have had many lovers, I have put other people first, I have put money first, I have everything else first and yet you still love me. Lord, I want to love you with all my heart, I want to be faithful to you for the rest of my days. I want to put you first, I want to separate from all other lovers and cleave to you until death do us apart. Lord I love you because you first love me and die for me. Lord this is my vow, help me to keep it, help me to be faithful

Jesus: my child I vow to love you forever.I vow to never leave you nor forsake you. I vow to cleanse you of all unrighteousness. I vow to be your provider, your sustainer. I vow to keep you from falling. And if you cheat on me, I vow to forgive you, I vow to be your advocate before the Father. I know you said in your vow until death to us apart, but I vow neither death, not principality can separate you from my love. I vow if you abide in my love you will never die. I vow to take you to my Father's house where you will abide with me forever.
I love you, I want to be yours and for you to be mines forever ...Jesus Christ your Savior


In the presence of the witnessing universe I am now married to Christ and I will now forsake all other lovers by His grace and might.


Romans 7:4 wherefore, my brethren, ye are also become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God. 

Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and exult and give Him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.


2 Corinthians 11:2 
For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
