Bible verses about marriage

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-5-15

by

Genesis 2:24 (NKJV) 24 Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

They shall become one flesh.

This is a profound statement and a concept that no human mind can truly understand. That two unique individuals could become one isn’t something that’s easy to understand.

But with God, things that seem contrary to our understanding are commonplace. He takes what seems illogical and impossible and makes them perfect.

God created man and woman to be together, to love and care for each other. He created man and woman to nurture each other and to help each other.

A man by himself is not complete.

A woman by herself is not complete.

But a man and woman together, with God leading them, can become complete.

Marriage is not an easy journey. It takes hard work on both parts. But when the couple puts God first, loves Him with all their hearts and endeavors to please Him in all they do, the problems they encounter in their relationship will be minimal.

So let’s be sure that we are putting God first in everything. As we do this as a husband and wife, and we live our lives to please God, we will be creating an atmosphere that will allow our marriage to grow and flourish.

Bible Verse of The Day – 3-12-15

by

Ephesians 5:25 (NKJV) 25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her…

I love my wife.

As a man of God, I’ve learned a lot over the years as to what it means to be a godly husband.

God comes first in everything. And to the world, that might seem a bit twisted, since in the natural way of thinking, they might wonder why my wife doesn’t come first.

But here’s the deal. As we love God more, and we put God first, He will teach us how to love our spouse even more. So the end result of loving God and putting Him first is that we ultimately end up loving our spouse more!

And I will be the first to admit that I still make mistakes. Heck, if I didn’t, it would probably mean that I was already dead and living in a glorified body! Just kidding šŸ™‚

But I can honestly say that God has taught me to love her more as each day goes by.

So, with that said, I’d like to share with everyone that today, March 12, 2015, we are celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary!

Please help me in celebrating by replying to this messageĀ and wishing Pastor Ellie a happy anniversary and letting her know how much she is loved! I want to make the day really special for her šŸ™‚

And she has no idea that I’m doing this, so she will be surprised!

God bless each and every one of you and may He bless your marriage and draw you closer to Himself, in turn, drawing you closer to each other.

Bible Verse of The Day – 12-10-14

by

Ephesians 5:28 (NKJV) 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself.

Making time for our spouse, and treating them with respect and love is important. Sure, they can have a bad day sometimes. Donā€™t we all? They still need love and affection, and not to be ignored.

Make every day count. Try to plan quality time with them. It could be as simple as sitting together and reading a book. Or cuddle up and watch a good show. Maybe even eat a nice candle lit dinner, etc.

Make sure we keep the flame burning on the candle of our marriage. Switch things up now and then and do something different, something out of the ordinary.

One of the common things going around nowadays with married couples is that they “fell out of love”. Well, maybe what they are trying to say is not so much they don’t love the other person but that they are BORED with the same ole same ole stuff and want some excitement!

Keep it exciting and keep it fun! It doesn’t have to cost a lot of money. Be creative!

Have fun and love on your spouse. Amen

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-25-14

by

Genesis 2 (NKJV) 18 And the Lord God said, ā€œIt is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.ā€

A HELPER is the key word here today. Webster dictionary defines a helper as: someone who helps another person with a job or task.

Men, you need to let your wives be that helper that God made them to be. And wives, you need to help your man.

Talking and listening to each other about every little thing or big thing is important in a marriage. Itā€™s in those little conversations that we can pick up on a lot of things that we might otherwise miss.

There may be times when we think we shouldn’t tell our spouse something because we want to protect them. But by doing that, we are hiding things from them and that may come back to bite us, even though we had good intentions.

Men, are you struggling today in some areas? Then take some time and talk to your wife. Donā€™t hide it, or keep it from her.

Women, always be ready to help your man. Whether they come to you on their own, or if you see something going wrong, and you know they need help, talk with them. Share your concerns with them. There’s no need to yell, nag or tear them down. But speak out of wisdom, love and compassion.

Work together as a couple and make the changes that need to be made. Donā€™t leave it all up to one person to fix it.

It takes a man and woman helping each other to have a good, strong marriage. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 11-4-14

by

Matthew 19:6 (NKJV) “So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate.”

Marriage is an incredible gift from God. Sadly, it has become devalued in today’s society.

As followers of Christ, we don’t have to fall into the traps of the enemy, destroying what God has joined together.

Making a marriage last takes hard work on both sides. But itĀ canĀ be done!

Are you in a troubled marriage? Have you cheated on your spouse? Have you mistreated them?

Have you given up hope because your spouse mistreatedĀ you?

Regardless of what you’ve been through, this doesn’t have to be the end of your relationship. There is hope and there is help for you. YouĀ canĀ make it work and have victory in your situation.

Start by forgiving each other. Make a decision to do whatever it takes to work things out and don’t quit. Don’t give up.

And instead of dwelling on what the other person did wrong toĀ you, stop and ask God what He wants you to change in yourself. If both people in a troubled relationship would do this, and then take it seriously enough to take action to fix the problems, not a single relationship would end up broken.

We know it’s not easy, so don’t think we’re saying that it is. But we’ve seen God work some miracles in cases where both people were willing to admit that they had faults and then work through the problems in front of them.

So don’t give up hope. Trust God. Let Him lead you. If we could all just let God lead us, how much better would our lives be?

It’s never too late to start.
