The 10 Eye-Opening Facts to Consider Before Marriage

 

The 10 Eye-Opening Facts to Consider Before Marriage

(A Biblical, Practical, and Heart-Transforming Guide)

Thinking about marriage? Discover 10 crucial and surprising facts to know before tying the knot—from emotional readiness to spiritual alignment. A must-read for every Christian!

Introduction: Why Preparation Is Greater Than Excitement

Marriage is not merely a romantic dream—it’s a covenant, a commitment, and a calling. In a world obsessed with weddings but ignorant of marriage, many fall into emotional, spiritual, and relational traps because of poor preparation.

The Bible doesn’t just teach who to marry—it teaches how to prepare your heart before marriage.

Let’s explore 10 essential, thought-provoking, and sometimes surprising truths that every man and woman should know before saying “I do.”

1. Marriage Will Not Complete You—God Will

You are not a “half” seeking another “half.” Only Christ completes you.

“You are complete in Him…” – Colossians 2:10

Don’t expect a spouse to heal wounds only God can. Marriage is not a cure for emptiness—Jesus is.

2. Falling in Love Is Easy; Staying in Love Requires Intentionality

Emotions fade. Butterflies don’t last. But love that lasts is a choice, not just a feeling.

“Love is patient, love is kind… It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” – 1 Corinthians 13:4–7

Prepare for marriage by practicing daily, sacrificial love, not just romantic ideals.

3. You Don’t Marry Just a Body—You Marry a Soul

Physical attraction is not enough. You are marrying a worldview, a prayer life, a trauma history, a destiny. Look deeper.

Ask:

  • Does this person seek God?
  • Do they confess sin?
  • Are they emotionally stable?

4. Compatibility Alone Is Not Enough—You Need Spiritual Unity

Do you both follow the same Shepherd?

“Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.” – 2 Corinthians 6:14

Shared faith in Christ is non-negotiable. Marrying someone spiritually distant from you will divide your future calling.

5. Marriage Is a Covenant, Not a Contract

Modern love says: “If you meet my needs, I stay.”
Biblical love says: “I commit, no matter what.”

“What God has joined together, let no one separate.” – Matthew 19:6

Prepare to lay down your life, not just hold hands.

6. Your Past Will Follow You Into Marriage—Unless Healed

Unforgiveness, lust, bitterness, childhood wounds—marriage magnifies what you bury. Heal before you marry.

“He restores my soul…” – Psalm 23:3

Get help. Find a mentor. Go to counseling. Be emotionally free before tying a covenant knot.

7. Marriage Requires Maturity, Not Just Age

You may be 30 but emotionally 15. Maturity means:

  • Saying sorry without blame
  • Handling money wisely
  • Serving without expecting
  • Managing emotions with grace

Spiritual and emotional maturity must precede a marital journey.

8. Communication Skills Can Save a Marriage Before It Begins

Learn to express emotions, resolve conflict, and listen with empathy. Poor communication leads to broken hearts.

“Let every person be quick to listen, slow to speak…” – James 1:19

Learn communication before rings are exchanged.

9. Sexual Purity Before Marriage Builds Trust Within It

Sexual sin before marriage weakens future trust and spiritual intimacy. Purity protects your heart.

“Flee sexual immorality.” – 1 Corinthians 6:18

You’re not just saving your body—you’re saving your soul and your marriage.

10. Marriage Is Ministry—Not Just Romance

Marriage isn’t just about two people being happy. It’s a picture of Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:25-33). It’s spiritual.

Ask yourself:

  • Are we glorifying God together?
  • Can we fulfill His purpose better together than apart?

Bonus Reflection: Questions to Ask Before You Say “Yes”

  • What does this person believe about God, the Bible, and salvation?
  • Do they honor their parents?
  • How do they handle stress or failure?
  • Are they generous, humble, forgiving?

For he that findeth me shall find life, and shall receive mercy from the Lord. But he that sinneth against me, harmeth his own soul; All those who hate me love death.’ Proverb. 8:35-36 But God shows his love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 He committed no sin, nor was any guile found in his mouth; He did not rebuke in return; He did not threaten when he suffered, but committed himself to the righteous judge. He Himself bore our sins in His own body on the cross, that we might die to sins and live to righteousness; By His stripes you were healed. 1 st. Proverb. 8:35-36 Nor is salvation in any other; For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 Jesus said to him: “I am the way, the truth, and the life; No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 Behold, he comes with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, even those who despise him; And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of him. So be it! Amen! Revelation 1:7 And he was clothed in blood; And his name is called ‘Word of God’. Revelation 19:13 “And behold, I come quickly; And I have my reward to give to every man according to his work. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.” Revelation 22:12-13 Note: Today people don’t even have time to go to heaven. Believe in Jesus Christ and you will receive forgiveness of sins, salvation and eternal life.
