Transforming Lives Through Kingdom Principles in Marriage

Devotional

Day 1: Embracing a New Identity

The transformative power of "Kingdom Man" lies in its ability to change how men view themselves and their roles in their families and communities. This shift in perspective is crucial for fostering healthier relationships and a stronger sense of purpose. By understanding their identity as kingdom men, individuals can begin to see themselves as leaders and servants in their homes and communities, embodying the values and principles that reflect their faith. This transformation is not just about personal growth but also about influencing those around them positively. [00:19]

Ephesians 4:22-24 (ESV): "To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness."

Reflection: In what ways can you begin to see yourself as a leader and servant in your family and community today? What specific actions can you take to embody this new identity?

Day 2: Living Out Kingdom Principles

The kingdom series aims to integrate kingdom principles into various aspects of life, from personal identity to family dynamics. This holistic approach encourages individuals to live out their faith in practical and meaningful ways. By applying these principles, believers can experience a more profound connection with their faith and a greater impact on their surroundings. This integration is not just about personal transformation but also about creating a ripple effect that influences others to live out their faith authentically. [00:19]

Colossians 3:17 (ESV): "And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him."

Reflection: How can you incorporate kingdom principles into your daily routines and interactions? What is one specific area of your life where you can start living out your faith more intentionally?

Day 3: Building a Kingdom Marriage

"Kingdom Marriage" is the next step in this journey, focusing on the union of a kingdom man and a kingdom woman. This book provides guidance on building a marriage that reflects kingdom values and principles. By understanding and applying these teachings, couples can strengthen their relationships and create a partnership that honors God. This journey is about more than just personal fulfillment; it's about building a marriage that serves as a testament to the transformative power of faith. [00:52]

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 (ESV): "Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!"

Reflection: What steps can you take to ensure that your marriage reflects kingdom values? How can you and your spouse work together to build a partnership that honors God?

Day 4: Accessing Kingdom Teachings

The free audio book offer for "Kingdom Marriage" is a unique opportunity to access these teachings. By pre-ordering, individuals can gain early insights into how to apply kingdom principles to their marriages. This offer is not just about acquiring knowledge but about taking proactive steps to enrich one's marriage and faith journey. By engaging with these teachings, couples can prepare themselves to face challenges with a renewed sense of purpose and commitment. [00:52]

Proverbs 4:7 (ESV): "The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get insight."

Reflection: How can you take advantage of opportunities to deepen your understanding of kingdom principles? What is one practical step you can take today to enrich your marriage with these teachings?

Day 5: Sharing the Kingdom Vision

Sharing these resources with others, especially married couples, can have a profound impact on their relationships. By spreading kingdom principles, we can help others experience transformation in their marriages and families. This act of sharing is not just about offering advice but about inviting others to join a journey of faith and growth. By being a conduit of these teachings, individuals can play a vital role in expanding the reach of kingdom values and fostering a community of believers committed to living out their faith. [01:23]

Hebrews 10:24-25 (ESV): "And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near."

Reflection: Who in your life could benefit from learning about kingdom principles? How can you share these teachings with them in a way that is both inviting and impactful?
