Welcome to Overcoming Counterfeit Setback!
This is a new series focusing on the strategies men choose in selecting a wife as a romantic partner. They often choose what looks like potential for a wife but who ends up being a counterfeit.
The counterfeit in any relationship, romantic or otherwise, reflects the false sense of potential. It is the person who you believe will help you to get to where you want to be in life.
This means you will ignore the real person who is designed and assigned to get you to where you’re supposed to be in your season. The real person listens to God, obeys God concerning you, and applies God’s word to the situation.
The counterfeit always looks like the real person and because we are blinded by their “potential,” we often sell out instead of drive out.
There is no guarantee that potential will reach potential, but there is a guarantee that the counterfeit will continue to counterfeit.
It is time to overcome counterfeit setback!
