Preparing for Marriage in Christian Courtshipಮಾದರಿ

Day 2 - Practical Ways to Prepare for Marriage

Preparing for marriage involves deliberate actions and thoughtful planning. Here are practical ways to prepare for marriage during the courtship period:

1. Couples' Bible Study

Engage in Bible study together, reflecting on the Scriptures, and discussing how to incorporate biblical principles into your marriage.(2 Timothy 3:16-17) "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."

2. Pre-Marital Counseling

Seek guidance from a trusted pastor or counselor experienced in pre-marital counseling. Discuss your expectations, potential challenges, and ways to nurture a strong marriage.

(Proverbs 11:14) "For lack of guidance a nation falls, but victory is won through many advisers."

3. Financial Planning and Budgeting

Discuss and plan your financial future, including budgeting, saving, and long-term financial goals.(Proverbs 21:5) "The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty."

4. Conflict Resolution Skills

Learn and practice healthy conflict resolution techniques to ensure disagreements don't escalate into major issues. (James 1:19) "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry."

5. Serve Together

Volunteer or engage in community service together, demonstrating the joy of serving others as a couple. (Galatians 5:13) "You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love."
