7 Day Devotion Series on Couples in the Bible
This year marks my 5th wedding anniversary. Due to this amazing milestone the latest Instagram devotion series for the month of February was about marriages in scripture and 1 Corinthians 13. In the 7 Day Devotion Series on Couples in the Bible we discuss several married couples in the Bible and what we can learn from their stories. Each day features discussion questions for you and your spouse as well as passages of scripture.
If you and your significant other are looking for a short daily devotion to discuss at the end of the day, be sure to download the 7 Day Devotion Series on Couples in the Bible below!
Sample Devotion:
Day 6: Adam & Eve
Adam and Eve had a difficult start as a married couple. You know, after the whole first sin and creating a fallen world thing. Then they got cast out of Eden and had to learn to garden and build a house and clothe themselves.
So, yeah… they had a bit of a rough first year of marriage.
What I find fascinating in the story of Adam and Eve is Genesis 3:6, “So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food…she took of its fruit and ate, and she also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate.”
Adam was with Eve the whole time. So at no point during the talking snake and temptation that led to the fall of humanity did Adam once speak up and tell his wife that maybe it wasn’t a good idea to eat the fruit.
Marriage helps to keep us accountable. You can’t hide much from your spouse. My husband knows when I am not getting my quiet time with God or I’ve spent too many hours on my laptop. I know when he feels overwhelmed at work or needs rest. Our needs are obvious, because we are with each other every day.
Proverbs 27:17 says “Iron sharpens iron.” As we run the race together, it is vital we keep one another accountable.
How can you (lovingly) sharpen your spouse today? You are their biggest advocate. Don’t be quiet like Adam. Speak up.
Application:
Share your personal goals with your spouse and how they can keep you accountable. Write them all down or type them into your phone. What do you struggle with? Be honest with one another and share the burden.
