DO YOU HAVE A PRAYER REQUEST?

Growing Closer To God As A Couple

Do you remember the joy of exchanging vows, the cheers from loved ones, and the sacred moment you promised to walk with your spouse in God’s presence?

That day marked the beginning of a journey with each other and God at the center of your union. Yet, in the ebb and flow of life, how do you keep that sacred bond alive and growing?

God’s ultimate plan for spouses is to help them get to heaven and share in His glory forever. But you and your spouse may find yourselves asking:

How can we grow closer to God as a couple and glorify His name through our lives?

Loving Him Well: Practical Advice on Influencing Your Husband
  • Thomas, Gary (Author)
  • English (Publication Language)

If you long to experience a marriage rich in God’s presence, you must work daily to embrace God fully, entrust Him with every challenge, and place Him at the center of your relationship.

The Bible, in Ecclesiastes 4:12, reminds us:

“Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.”

When you and your spouse bear each other’s burdens and love as Christ loves the church, your union becomes unshakable. Having God at the center of your marriage is a powerful defense against any challenge.

Here are six ways you and your spouse can grow closer to God together:

How Can You Build a Stronger Spiritual Foundation?

Building a godly relationship is much easier when you live according to God’s principles.

When both spouses nurture their faith individually, it creates a spiritual reservoir to draw from during challenges. Spend time in prayer, meditation, or quiet reflection, asking God to guide your actions and thoughts.

Why Is Communication the Heart of Your Spiritual Growth?

Communication is an integral part of any marriage. Share your feelings, hopes, and struggles with your partner. Listening deeply when your spouse speaks is just as important.

A practical way to strengthen this connection is to schedule weekly check-ins. Use this time to discuss your struggles, your gratitude for each other, and God’s blessings in your life.

Study the Bible Together

The Bible offers solutions to every challenge we face. It is rich with wisdom on handling life’s difficulties and finding joy in all circumstances.

Together, explore passages that speak directly to marriage, such as 1 Corinthians 13, which outlines the qualities of godly love. Discuss how you can apply these lessons in your daily life.

What Can Godly Friends Add to Your Marriage?

Connecting with couples who love God and desire to serve Him can be a source of strength. These friendships encourage spiritual conversations and provide prayer support for your marriage.

Consider joining a church-based couple’s group or attending retreats where you can bond with other spiritually aligned couples. Seek older, more experienced couples who can mentor you and offer wise counsel during trials.

How Can Christ’s Love Inspire Your Marriage?

The Bible teaches us that Christ loved the church with grace and selflessness, laying down His life for the world.

Each day, choose to love your spouse unconditionally. During moments of conflict, pause and reflect on how Christ would show grace in that situation. Don’t give up on your spouse when challenges arise; allow God to take center stage in healing and strengthening your bond.

To further enrich your journey toward a Christ-centered marriage, consider exploring these insightful books:
