Building a Strong Marriage

A strong, lasting marriage doesn’t happen by chance—it’s built on intentionality and God’s guidance. When Christ is at the center, a marriage becomes more than a relationship between two people; it becomes a reflection of His love.

Psalm 127:1 (NKJV) says, “Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it.” This truth reminds us that no amount of effort, planning, or good intentions can replace God’s foundation.

Marriage is meant to mirror the relationship between Christ and the Church, as Ephesians 5:31-32 (NKJV) teaches. Keeping Jesus at the center is essential for growth, unity, and lasting love. Whether you’re married or preparing for a future relationship, the principles of prayer, vision, and support from your church family will guide you.

When we allow God’s love to shape our marriages, we experience joy, strength, and a partnership that reflects His purpose. Every home can become a place where His grace is evident, relationships thrive, and His glory is displayed.
