In Luke 1:5–25, we see the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth, a devout couple who had long prayed for a child. Despite their righteousness, they remained childless until an angel visited Zechariah to announce that Elizabeth would bear a son—John the Baptist. Zechariah doubted, and as a result, he was rendered mute until the prophecy came to pass.

This passage sheds light on how vital communication is in a marriage and how it affects trust, understanding, and unity.

Communication in marriage is essential because it builds trust and respect, resolves conflicts, and prevents misunderstandings, which can lead to a strong and more fulfilling relationship.
