Helpful Devotionals for February

February 2025

In February, we focus on Walking in Love—how love, rooted in Christ, strengthens marriages, families, individuals, and those in their seasoned years. Love is not just a feeling but a commitment to reflect God's character through our relationships and daily actions.


For the Married

Theme: Unbreakable Love


Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 – "Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things."


Big Idea: Love in marriage is selfless, enduring, and reflective of God’s love for us.


Lesson Focus: Cultivating a Christ-centered love that deepens the marital bond.
