Quick to Bless

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

Hebrews 13:4

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. Honor marriage publicly and privately. Undefiled bed guards covenant joy. Judgment warns that God is not indifferent. October cultural casualness toward vows needs this counterword. Hold marriage in honor with words, policies, jokes you refuse, and fidelity you keep. Among all means singles and married together protect the institution's dignity. Undefiled is a positive purity, not prudish fear. Adultery and immorality still meet God's judgment—love people enough to say so. Strengthen a marriage this week: your own or a friend's, with encouragement and accountability. Honor is active. Beds are holy ground. Treat vows as weighty before the Judge who sees in secret.

PrayerLord, help me hold marriage in honor and keep the covenant bed undefiled—make Your fear and Your joy mark our faithfulness. Amen.
