🎙 Podcast – "Is He Praying, Paying, and Leading?"

💍 Part 4 of our 5-part series “5 Powerful Self-Reflection Questions Every Christian Must Ask Before Pursuing Marriage” dives deep into one crucial truth: He must be acting as the man he will grow to be in Christ, now - completely focused on his purpose to build a Christ centred Kingdom and leave legacy.

In this episode, we unpack one of the most important questions every Christian single—especially women—should ask before considering marriage: Is he praying, paying, and leading?

Drawing from Ephesians 5:23 and Psalm 112:5, we explore God’s design for husbands to be the spiritual head of the home—not in domination, but in sacrificial love, humility, and consistent leadership.

A godly man prays over his future wife and decisions, pays with both financial stewardship and sacrificial commitment, and leads with wisdom and stability.

Modern culture promotes “50/50” partnerships in everything, but God’s Word calls for Christlike headship—where a husband lays down his life, builds a home on the Rock, and takes spiritual responsibility seriously.

Ladies: If he isn’t leading now, a wedding won’t magically make it happen.

Reflection Questions:

Does he pray with and for me?

Is he building something stable or drifting aimlessly?

Is he ready to protect and provide for a family long-term?

Marriage is more than romance—it’s a covenant that demands spiritual maturity, preparation, and God’s blueprint.

"Do I Know My Worth as God’s Precious Treasure?"

In this powerful episode, we dive into the biblical truth about worth, identity, and intentionality in the Christian journey toward marriage.

Drawing from Proverbs 18:22 and Proverbs 31:10, we challenge Christian singles—especially those navigating dating and relationships—to reflect deeply on how they see themselves and how they’re being seen.

💎 Ladies—you are not a free trial. You're a rare treasure, far above rubies. If God says your worth is high, then don’t lower it for attention, temporary affection, or someone who hasn’t made a covenant commitment.

🛠 Gentlemen—marriage isn’t a reward for charm; it's the fruit of diligence and godly pursuit. You’re called to protect, pursue, and lead—not to consume or casually “sample.”

We also ask the tough questions:

• Am I treating my body and time as sacred?
• Am I attracting covenant-minded people or casual connections?
• Am I truly preparing to be a godly husband or wife—or just hoping someone finds me?

PART ONE - ARE YOU SAVED?

Discover 5 deeply reflective questions every Christian single should ask before pursuing marriage. Rooted in the Bible (KJV), this guide helps you prepare for God’s covenant of marriage the right way

Marriage is a covenant, not a contract. For the Christian, it's a sacred, three-way bond with God at the center. Before pursuing a relationship, it’s essential to ask yourself: Am I truly ready for marriage, God’s way?

Here is the first of 5 self-reflective principles, rooted in Scripture, that can help you evaluate your readiness and align your path with God’s design.

1. Is Jesus Christ the Lord and Saviour of My Life?“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” — John 14:6 (KJV)Jesus must be Lord of your life before He can be Lord of your marriage.

Marriage is a spiritual covenant. You, your spouse, and Christ must be equally yoked: “And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken.” — Ecclesiastes 4:12 (KJV) This is not optional. The Holy Spirit empowers the sweetness (love, joy, peace, patience), but also sustains you through trials designed to refine and sanctify. “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers…” — 2 Corinthians 6:14 (KJV)

Ask yourself:Do I follow Christ daily, or just occasionally? Do I want someone who truly follows Jesus—or just calls themselves Christian? Can I commit to keeping God as the third strand in my future marriage? If not, stop. Your foundation isn't strong enough yet.

Come and journey with us:

We’re here to walk with you.

We’ll coach you.

We’ll prepare you.

And we’ll help you match with the one God has chosen — not by AI, no games, no algorithms...But by God’s rhythm. ⁠Register here ⁠ (Step 1) and let's place your divine order into God's hands.
