4 Scriptures for the Christian Man Preparing for Marriage


Christian Man Preparing for Marriage

Preparing for marriage is an exciting and important time in your life. As a Christian man, you have a special opportunity to build a strong foundation for your future marriage based on God's Word and biblical wisdom. Here are some helpful tips and scriptures to guide you on this path.


Building a Foundation on God

Matthew 7:24 says, "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock."


In marriage, just like building a house, you need a strong foundation. By listening to God’s teachings and living them out, you create a stable base for your future marriage. Make it a habit to read the Bible and pray individually and with your future wife so you can build your relationship on God's wisdom.


Learning to Love Deeply

Ephesians 5:25 says, "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her."


This scripture highlights the importance of loving your spouse deeply and selflessly. Preparing for marriage means learning to put your future wife's needs before your own, just as Jesus sacrificed Himself for us. Think about ways to show love every day, whether it's through small acts of kindness or being attentive to your partner’s emotional needs. 


Communicating with Care

James 1:19 says, "Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry."


Good communication is central to a happy marriage. This verse is a great one to practice applying as you prepare for marriage. Practicing patience and understanding now will help you build a strong bond with your wife, making it easier to navigate any disagreements (that are bound to come).


Facing Challenges Together

Philippians 4:13 says, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength."


Marriage will have its challenges, but you don’t have to face them alone. With God, you can overcome any obstacles together. Lean on your faith and trust in God to help you through tough times, strengthening your relationship along the way.


Preparing for marriage with God’s guidance sets you on a path to a joyful and fulfilling life together. By building your life on the Rock, you’re not just preparing for marriage but also setting up a happy and blessed future with your partner.
