Most people want to truly understand love. In the Bible, God paints a very clear picture that helps us understand if we are really in love. One of the greatest love stories we find in the Bible is the Song of Songs. It is also known as the “Song of Songs”. This is a story that helps us better understand how to build godly relationships. This article is packed with great advice to help you build a godly relationship before marriage.
1.) Physical restraint– While we are attracted to our partner, God asks us to practice physical restraint until marriage. If you practice physical restraint in your relationship by setting aside intimate moments for your marriage, then you will not only have a healthy relationship with God, but also with your partner.
2.) Keep your character– Be who you are when you are with your future spouse. Don’t try to be someone you’re not. It is important for both you and your future spouse to show your true colors before marriage. This way there will be no surprises once you are married.
3.) Get opinions from others– We may not always want to hear what others have to say, but it is important that we listen to their opinion. Listen to what the person you love has to say.
4.) Let the man take the lead– God asks men to lead in a relationship; however, that doesn’t mean a woman shouldn’t have an opinion. Make sure you’re both in this together for the right reasons.
5.) Compliment each other– Find reasons every day to praise each other. This will help you build love and security in your relationship. Tell your future spouse the things you love about him or her and be there for him or her in both happy and difficult times.
6.) Become one in spirit– Make sure both you and your partner are in the same place spiritually. You must make sure that both you and your spouse believe in Jesus Christ as your savior. A solid Christian foundation is key to building a godly relationship.
Premarital counseling is a great way to build a relationship with God and with your future spouse. Ask the pastor of your church for more information on premarital counseling. You can also ask the minister who will perform the ceremony for him.
Using premarital counseling is a great way to get to know each other better. You may find out some things about your potential spouse that you don’t like. Now is the time to address these issues. Not after you’ve already gotten married.
