1. COMMUNICATE ALWAYS: You cannot build a long-lasting family life without communication. Don’t expect your spouse to read your mind. He/she is not a mind reader. Take time to sit and talk with your spouse. The more you talk, the closer you will be. Switch off your television, shut down your computer or iPad and newspapers, books, and magazines should be closed. Talk like friends and lovers. There are so many topics you can discuss about in your marriage. Talk about God, your spiritual life, vision and dream, plans, future, marriage, love, life, housework, money, project, expectation, career, children, in-laws, sex life, and Romance.
2. CONTROL YOUR ANGER: Everyone gets angry, your man or lady can make you angry but self-control is much needed to have a successful relationship. The ability to handle anger properly is very important. When you don’t handle anger properly, you ruin your relationship. Always meditate on the Word of God. Pray out the spirit of anger from your life. Forgive as soon as you are offended. Never keep record of offences. Deal with pride and ego because it engenders anger.

3. FORGIVE YOUR SPOUSE:
Marriage is two forgivers living together. If you must have a joyful, peaceful, and long-lasting marriage, forgiving one another is a must because your spouse will definitely offend you as often as possible. Without forgiveness, marriage cannot last. Unforgiveness leads to bitterness, anger, and malice. It destroys peace at home and removes joy from the family. It destroys romance, intimacy, and sexual fulfillment in marriage.
4. HONOUR YOUR HUSBAND. Men interpret respect as love. No matter the level of your educational qualification, affluence, spiritual gifts, or age, your husband needs unconditional respect as much as you need unconditional love. Respect his opinions and decisions. Whenever he gives you an instruction, take it as the word of a king! Don’t talk to him anyhow. Love is not rude (1 Corinthians 13:5). Don’t argue or talk back at him in public. No man likes a woman who argues. Don’t criticize him in front of others. It is impossible to win the heart of a man you don’t respect. Honor your husband and he will treat you like his beauty queen forever.
5. BE KIND AND CARING TO YOUR WIFE: When you want to get the best out of a woman, care for her. Care is the reason behind unending romance. Every woman wants a caring husband. Treat your wife as your Queen. Treat her as your girlfriend. Treat her as your first lady. Treat as your only daughter. Protect her from any assault from third party. Be available for her. Admire her. Pamper her and care for her. Consider your wife’s interest always before yours. Let her happiness be your number one interest.
6. AVOID THIRD PARTY INFLUENCE
If you want to have a blissful and exciting marriage, please close the door of your marriage to external interference. There are bound to be quarrels or disagreements in marriage but make sure you don’t allow third party to interfere or settle quarrels for you. But if the quarrel is getting out of hands, you can then involve a certified marriage counselor. Disassociate with anyone causing disharmony between you and your spouse. Love your spouse deeply more than any third party.
7. BE FAITHFUL TO YOUR SPOUSE: Husband; be faithful to your wife. Do not sleep with any other woman except her for the rest of your life. Learn to be content with what you have. Being unfaithful is the easiest way to completely ruin your marriage. Adultery kills. It brings tears, sorrow; regret, worry, guilty, sickness, heartache, and untimely death to couples. Wife, be faithful to your husband. Don’t sleep with any other man except your husband for the rest of your life. Be careful with female or male friendships. Adultery shatters love, and destroys trust, families are torn apart, and spouses and children bear the pain. (Proverbs 5:15-23, Exodus 20:14, Hebrew 13:4)
8. DELETE THOUGHT OF DIVORCE AND RE-MARRIAGE: Marriage is meant to be a permanent institution which should only be terminated by the death of a partner. It is not meant for trial and error or experiment. Never threaten your spouse with separation or divorce. If you want to have a very happy and fulfilling marriage, you should delete those words from your marital vocabulary. FIGHT FOR YOUR MARRIAGE
9. PROVIDE FOR THE NEEDS OF YOUR SPOUSE AND CHILDREN. Never be stingy with your spouse. Care for his/her needs. Be generous to him/her. Pay your children’s school fees promptly and regularly. Marriage is not 50/50. It's 100/100. Give yourself entirely, and don't hold back. Men, Be sensitive to your wife’s needs. Spend money to beautify her.
10. MAKE LOVE REGULARLY. Enjoy Lovemaking with your spouse. Never withhold s*x as a punishment. S*x is not only for procreation but also for PLEASURE. Learn new styles that make your s*x life interesting. Be excited about having s*x with your spouse. Flirt with your spouse. Make sure he/she is sexually satisfied (1 Corinthians 7:3-5).
11. DATE REGULARLY: Invite your Spouse on a romantic date to the movies or a nice restaurant. Take a short vacation to a quiet and peaceful beach or resort. Keep dating each other. Make time in your schedules regularly to go on dates together so you can enjoy fun and relaxing time as just the two of you. Keep in mind that your dates don’t have to be complicated or expensive. Make quality time for each other. Keep dating each other. Play together
12. PRAY TOGETHER AS A COUPLE:
Build your life, your marriage, your home, and your family on PRAYER AND THE WORD OF GOD, you will not regret it. Your marriage is your first ministry. You must protect it from attack. Always pray together, study the word of God together, serve God together in the church. It will prevent the devil from gaining entrance into your home.

He attacks marriage with many things like hatred, domestic violence, anger, divorce, stubbornness, infidelity, financial challenges, etc. Couples must join hands together to fight the enemy in the name of Jesus Christ. Be ready to fight to maintain your marriage zone
