Marriage After God

10 Marriage Devotional: What Are We Fighting For?


Listen Later

Today on the Marriage After God podcast, we dive into the reality of conflict in marriage and the deeper spiritual layers behind the tension we often feel. We share how easy it can be to see each other as the enemy, when Scripture reminds us that the real battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces and the desires of our own flesh.

We talk about the tactics of deception and accusation that can creep into our hearts, pulling us away from unity. We also explore how humility, love, and intentional communication help us fight fair and stay connected even in the hardest moments.

In this episode-

  • Conflict in marriage is normal—and Scripture offers guidance for handling it well.
  • We must remember who the real enemy is and refuse to fight against each other.
  • Spiritual warfare often plays out in our closest relationships.
  • Deception and lies can fuel conflict if we don’t recognize them.
  • Accusations tear down unity.
  • Unity requires humility, intentionality, and a softened heart.
  • Our posture and body language can reveal more than our words during conflict.
  • Practical, biblical tools help couples navigate disagreements with grace.
  • Prayer disarms conflict and invites the Holy Spirit into the moment.
  • Fighting the good fight together strengthens and protects the marriage.
