1 " biblical unity in marriage ought to represent: the distinct lives of two individuals experiencing God’s purpose for each of them in harmony with the other. "
― Tony Evans ,
2 " A kingdom marriage is defined as “a covenantal union between a man and a woman who commit themselves to function in unison under divine authority in order to replicate God’s image and expand His rule in the world through both their individual and joint callings. "
3 " what makes a marriage strong is loving with a biblical love grounded in patience, kindness, loyalty, grace, and more, which is in alignment with God’s covenantal purpose for marriage. "
4 " Of all of the places on the planet, your marriage should be that one place where you are encouraged, reminded of your strengths, and given the motivation you need to live out those strengths well. "
5 " The closer God and His rule are tied to the definition of marriage, the more order, productivity, and fulfillment are experienced in our marriages. The further away God and His rule are, the more chaos occurs in the home. "
6 " Forgiveness is first and foremost a decision. It doesn’t begin with an emotion. It is not contingent on how you feel "
7 " a man is defined biblically as “a male who has learned to submit his maleness to the lordship of Jesus Christ. "
8 " A kingdom man is “a male who places himself underneath God’s rulership and lives his life submitted to the lordship of Jesus Christ. "
9 " Husbands should not be in the marriage first and foremost to get their needs met, but rather they should first look out for the interests and needs of their wives. A husband’s love should be characterized by sacrifice for the good of his wife. "
10 " The absence of a kingdom purpose for marriage makes it appear as if many couples have been married by the secretary of war rather than the justice of the peace. A passenger on a plane one day noticed that the man sitting next to him had his wedding ring on the wrong hand, so he asked him why. The husband replied, "Because I married the wrong woman. "
11 " let’s commit to memorizing and meditating on 1 Corinthians 15:58: “Be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord. "
12 " To know whether a man is following God’s Kingdom agenda for his home, the best place to look is at his wife. Does she feel loved, known, honored, and spiritually encouraged in her relationship with her husband? "
