Marriage

Dear Lord,

Please protect our hearts as we are inundated with news that is overwhelming and out of our control. Our world seems to be enduring an increase of chaos. Shape us into a couple who stands strong in today’s world. Though uncertainty seems to be around every corner, please help us to remain firm and stable in our marriage. Lord, let our marriage be a powerful force in the world to show others Your light.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Make us considerate of what we can do to prepare for our future while also investing in the legacy we purpose to establish so that generations of our family would benefit from our choices today. Lord, we commit to using our finances to glorify You. We trust You with all that we have because we know it came from You. Keep our lives free from the love of money, and never let it be a source of contention in our marriage.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

We recognize the importance of having a strong foundation in marriage, a relationship established on a bedrock of faith. Lord, we pray You would increase our faithfulness! Anchor our hearts and secure our belief in You so that doubt has nowhere to flourish. In every season and circumstance, remind us to take up the shield of faith to protect our marriage from the flaming arrows of the Enemy.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

We recognize there is a time and place to use our phones, so we ask You to make us more aware of our usage, revealing to us the moments when we pick up our phones out of habit or boredom, not necessity. Help us to hold hands more than we hold our devices. Help us to look into each other’s eyes more than we look at our screens. Please help us to set healthy boundaries and to stick to them. Make us mindful to put down any distractions so we can give one another our hearts’ full...

Dear Lord,

Thank You for how busy we have been lately. We appreciate the opportunity, as well as the desire we both have, to work hard. Shape us into a couple who is diligent and efficient in our work. Help us organize our days to make the best use of our time. God, will You show us how to honor You in our places of work, whether that be at home or outside the home? May we never complain about our responsibilities or whom we work alongside. Remove any negative thoughts we have, and train us...
