INTRODUCTION
Marriage is an institution ordained by God, and it is His will that every marriage enjoys breakthrough and fruitfulness. However, many face challenges such as marital delays, barrenness, and crises that hinder their joy and fulfillment. The enemy often fights marriages to stop God's purpose, but through faith, prayer, and obedience to divine principles, every marital yoke can be broken, and fruitfulness can be established.

1. GOD’S DESIGN FOR MARRIAGE AND FRUITFULNESS
God created marriage to be a blessing, not a burden.

a) Marriage is God’s Idea
God saw that it was not good for man to be alone, so He instituted marriage (Genesis 2:18).

b) Fruitfulness is a Divine Mandate
From the beginning, God commanded man to be fruitful and multiply (Genesis 1:28).

c) Marriage is for Companionship and Support
Marriage provides love, partnership, and emotional support (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10).

d) God Desires Godly Offspring from Marriage
One of God's purposes for marriage is to raise godly children (Malachi 2:15).

e) Biblical Example:
Adam and Eve were the first married couple, and God blessed them with fruitfulness (Genesis 4:1-2).

2. HINDRANCES TO MARITAL BREAKTHROUGH AND FRUITFULNESS
Many factors can delay marriage and hinder fruitfulness.

a) Spiritual Attacks and Ancestral Curses
Some families experience marital delays and barrenness due to foundational issues (Lamentations 5:7).

b) Negative Pronouncements and Covenants
Evil words spoken against a person can hinder their marriage (Numbers 23:23).

c) Lack of Faith and Impatience
Doubt and fear can delay the manifestation of God’s promises (Hebrews 11:6).

d) Disobedience to Divine Principles
Wrong relationships, immorality, and lack of prayer can hinder breakthroughs (1 Corinthians 6:18-20).

e) Biblical Example:
Rachel was barren until God remembered her and opened her womb (Genesis 30:22-24).

3. KEYS TO MARITAL BREAKTHROUGH
To experience a breakthrough, we must apply biblical principles.

a) Seek God’s Will in Marriage
A godly spouse is a blessing from the Lord (Proverbs 18:22).

b) Engage in Fervent Prayer and Fasting
Spiritual battles are won through prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21).

c) Break Every Evil Covenant and Curse
Deliverance from foundational yokes brings freedom (Galatians 3:13).

d) Walk in Holiness and Obedience
A godly lifestyle attracts divine favour (Psalm 84:11).

e) Biblical Example:
Isaac married Rebekah through divine guidance, and their marriage was blessed (Genesis 24:12-27).

4. KEYS TO MARITAL FRUITFULNESS
God has provided keys for fruitfulness in marriage.

a) Stand on God’s Promises for Fruitfulness
The Word of God guarantees fruitfulness (Exodus 23:26).

b) Reject Every Negative Medical Report
God’s power is greater than any medical condition (Luke 1:37).

c) Engage in Prophetic Declarations and Thanksgiving
Speaking life into your situation activates divine intervention (Romans 4:17-21).

Fruitfulness is a reward for service (Exodus 23:25-26).
