Unholy Matrimony: Healing for the Abused Woman 2nd Ed

By Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks

In this book, Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks talks about the consequences of marrying out of God’s will. Dr. Hooks states:
“We form ungodly soul ties and get involved with ungodly people, when we don’t acknowledge God in all our ways. This can and most likely will cause us to become victims of domestic violence/abuse. God is the only One who can bring you out of an abusive relationship. Remember, when God bring you out, you will have wounds, that God will heal; allow God to totally heal you, BEFORE, you get into another relationship.

Always remember, no matter what, God is with you; you are not alone. Psalm 34:19 (KJV) tells you, “Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him, out of them all.”

May God continually bless you and keep you is my prayer,
Dr. Dorothy E. Hooks
