Confidence in Christ for a Stronger Marriage | Marriage Devotional Week 8

Marriage After God

About this episode

Confidence in marriage starts with confidence in God. In part 8 of our marriage devotional series, Aaron and Jennifer Smith pair the wife's devotional on confident worthiness with the husband's devotional on bravery. Jennifer encourages wives to find their worth and identity in Christ alone rather than in self-reliance, fashion, family or even their spouse, drawing on Psalm 139 and Proverbs 31. Aaron challenges husbands to be spiritually brave, to fight the good fight of faith (1 Timothy 6:12) and be strong and courageous (Joshua 1:9) by opening the Bible and praying out loud with their family even when they feel unequipped, remembering the real battle is against spiritual forces (Ephesians 6:12). Christ doesn't want to share any throne in your life, and selfishness is the obstacle for both.
