5 Stories From The Bible About A Wedding Toast

Here are 5 great stories from the Bible about a wedding toast.

Two are Better than One – Ecclesiastes 4

Weddings are a super special occasion, and what better way to make them even more special than to make a toast to the newlywed couple.  One verse that stands out is “Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow” (Ecclesiastes 4:9).  That means they don’t have to go through life alone.  They have someone who can pick them up when they’re down…meaning they don’t stay down for long.

Love is the Greatest – 1 Corinthians 13

Love is the glue that holds a marriage together, so even though the other fruits of the Spirit might be present in a believer’s life, love is the kingpin of all marriages.  The Apostle Paul noted that there is “faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13).  Hope without love runs out is hopeless…faith without love is pointless, but with love, faith and hope, the new couple can abide securely.

A Good Thing – Proverbs 18

Many men cling to this verse and thank God for their bride.  Solomon wrote that “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord” (Proverbs 18:22), and how true that is.  It is a blessing beyond words or description, and a good wife or a good husband will surely obtain “favor from the LORD.”

His Word Succeeds – 1 Corinthians 13

Love can tolerate a lot of things…anger, suffering, pain, disease, and even death.  Love bears up or puts up with a lot as opposed to no love in a marriage, so indeed it’s true that “Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things” (1 Corinthians 13:7).  Love gives people the benefit of the doubt and thinks the best of people.  Love does not assume the worst, but the best.  That’s the power of love.

A Successful Marriage – Jeremiah 29

When a couple gets married, they may not know what’s ahead of them.  Difficult children, financial strains, illness or injury may be in their future, but God’s Word to ancient Israel is the same for us today.  He says, “I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope” (Jeremiah 29:11).  Things might end up being evil for a time, but there is “a future and a hope” for those who trust in Christ, even more important in a marriage.

Let No One Separate

When a couple unites in marriage, it is as Jesus said, “the two shall become one flesh.’ So they are no longer two but one flesh” (Mark 10:8).  They are no longer a man and a woman, but a family…and what God has joined together, we are to let no one separate.
