“When men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair and took as wives any they chose.” Genesis 6:1-2
Before the LORD God destroyed the world with a flood because the people of this world had turned away from Him and no longer walked in His ways, the believers took wives from among the daughters of the unbelieving, leading to more and more people turning from faith in the true God to unbelief and sin.
Give to Your children, O LORD, wisdom to choose a spouse who believes in Your promises and walks in Your ways so that they may bring up their children “in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Eph. 6:4) and not in the ways of this evil and dying world. Amen.
