       The Word of God needs to be at the heart of marriage; it must be central to it. Each person within the marriage gets his or her individual direction in life, and how to live, from the Word of God. The Scriptures are foundational to success in life, and on how to live in a way that is pleasing to God. When we are individually living like God wants us to live, this will, in turn, result in better married-life. Each individual within the marriage is doing what God wants, and therefore, it is only natural that marriage is flowing better in that case. Recall 2 Timothy 3:16, and I don’t think we often look at this verse with marriage in mind, but let’s consider it with that focus today: “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work” (ESV). Notice how the verse says “equipped for every good work.” Well, that includes marriage, and things that married couples work together to accomplish.
