Of course obeying God always comes first, but understand that being faithful to your spouse doesn't come "secondary". They are one and the same, because your spouse is your self, therefore your marriage is dedicated to God. If you're obeying God, you're going to be faithful to your spouse by default, as well as every other commandment. You never have to choose between one or the other. This "first, second, third" way of thinking gives Christians an excuse to say that some sins are "better" than others. No. If you're obeying God, then you're not sinning. Transgression against your own spouse is no better or worse than disobeying Him in any other way.
