Then he says that if they will desire and listen, they will eat the best fruits of the land that God wanted to give them. So it is with your relationship. If you have chosen to obey God and have repented, your sins have been completely forgiven the moment you entered into the New Covenant with the Lord Jesus. Now, if you live in obedience to God, know that He wants and is ready to bless your marriage and give you the &#8220;best fruits&#8221; of your marriage.
