💸Couples often start marriage with stars in their eyes and receipts in their hands. The honeymoon phase can quickly turn into the blame game when the bills roll in.
Arguments over spending, debt, savings (or lack thereof), and hidden Amazon packages can turn lovebirds into rivals. One spouse may save, the other splurges. One plans, the other wings it. Instead of solving the issue, couples end up pointing fingers—“You spend too much!” or “You’re too controlling!”

💡 Biblical Solution: Put God First in Finances
Malachi 3:10 (KJV) says:
“Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse… and prove me now herewith… if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing…”
God’s financial plan begins with obedience. When we honor Him first with tithes, He blesses the rest. Tithing isn’t just giving—it’s trusting. It reminds couples that God is the provider, not just their paycheck. When you tithe, you don’t go back to the church expecting help. God blesses you.
It may be a better job, an inheritance, or a raise. The church is not your saving ATM. If the church can help, there are programs but some people put money in and expect to take money out when the money is to run the church.
Proverbs 21:5 (KJV) backs this up:
“The thoughts of the diligent tend only to plenteousness; but of every one that is hasty only to want.”
→ In other words, make a plan, or stay broke.
Romans 13:8 (KJV) adds:
“Owe no man any thing, but to love one another…”
→ Don’t let debt be your third wheel. Pay it down, one honest step at a time.
