The #1 Purpose of Marriage…
To Glorify God.
Yep, that’s the #1 reason.Now, of course there are many other wonderful reasons for marriage like:
- So man is not alone.
- So we can have s*xual intimacy with another human being.
- So we can make babies or raise babies to be Christ-followers.
- So we can be in ministry together.
God did not create the institution of marriage just for us, but rather He created it so we can glorify Him through our marriage.
“All things were created by him, and for him.” Colossians 1:16
“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10
And if you’re a wife, what can you do today to bring glory to God through your marriage?
- Perhaps trust your husband’s leadership more?
- Be more submissive?
- More understanding?
- Gracious?
- Affectionate?
Live a poured out life for Christ,
