A Heavenly Home

All of Zac Poonen's four sons respect their father as their hero and wanted him to preach at their weddings.

This book contains the transcripts of the messages Zac preached at those weddings.

It is being sent forth with the prayer that it will challenge many married couples to raise the standard of their own married lives to God's standard.

Zac and Annie Poonen have been married for 44 years and have served the Lord together in many countries of the world and encouraged many families to build godly homes. Their four sons (and their wives) are all born again and now seek to be witnesses for the Lord as families in their generation - as their parents have been in theirs.

We must remember that marriage was God's idea and not man's. He was the "Manufacturer" of this product, so to speak. So the Manufacturer's instructions are more to be depended on, than our own ideas on how this "product" should work!

Here are some extracts from the "Manufacturer's instructions":

"Be subject to one another in reverence for Christ.

Wives , be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord, because the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church.

Husbands , love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her.

Husbands ought also to love their own wives as their own bodies.
(Then) The two shall become one "
(Ephesians 5:20-31).

"Wives, fit in with your husbands' plans. Be beautiful inside, in your hearts, with the lasting charm of a gentle and quiet spirit that is so precious to God.

You husbands must be careful of your wives, being thoughtful of their needs and honoring them as the weaker sex. Remember that you and your wife are partners in receiving God's blessings, and if you don't treat her as you should, your prayers will not get ready answers.

And now this word to both of you: You should be a happy family, full of sympathy toward each other, loving one another with tender hearts and humble minds."

(1 Peter 3:1-8 - Living Bible)

"Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love"

(Ephesians 4:2 - Living Bible).

The "product" will work perfectly, if the "Manufacturer's instructions" are followed exactly.
