FOUNDATION OF A STRONG MARRIAGE (WEDDING OF R & F)

Why do wise builders spend a lot of time on foundation?
Matthew 7:24-27 Build your marriage upon the firm foundation of God's word. Do not take a short-cut and build upon sand. Do not neglect the word that you hear. Strong winds come against every marriage, whether it is founded upon the rock or not; but those founded upon the rock will withstand the attack.
Love is the building blocks of a successful marriage.
1Corinthians 13:4-7
-Love is patient (You should be patient with one another in marriage).
–Love does not insist on its own way because it is not self-seeking. –Love does not keep record of wrongs. (You should forgive one another in marriage.

Communication in marriage
James 1:19
-Listen to understand
-Avoid ambush listening
- Listening is a skill.

Ephesians 4:29, Colossians 4:6 Speak words that build your spouse or children. Speak words that minister grace to the hearers. Speak words that encourage.

Do not break the marriage covenant
Malachi 2:13-16 (Amplified)
