Dear Lord,

We desire our marriage to be strong enough to last our lifetime. Lord, will You protect our promise to love each other and help us remain faithful to that promise? Show us how to keep You at the center of our marriage, and bind us together like a three-cord strand that is not quickly broken! May You be glorified for the longevity of our love and our commitment to care for each other.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Remind us we are never alone because You are with us! May we never be lured away from Your truth. Lord, will You teach us how to keep each other accountable? When we struggle with a specific sin, will You give us the courage to tell one another and then pray for each other? Make us a couple who chooses to live holy and blameless lives. May we stand strong, flee temptation, and endure together.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

In moments when our flesh is tempted with arrogance, will You redirect us to act in meekness instead? Let Christ’s example of humility reign in our hearts and minds! Help us to see clearly, and reveal any insight that will contribute to our resolve. May we refuse to fight for what we think is right, but rather, fight for Your truth to prevail.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

May we choose each other daily—may we choose each other over worry, over finances, over arguing, and over work. As we balance our lives, may we prioritize our relationship above other relationships, trusting each other to pour more time into our marriage than into family, friendships, ministry partners, and work relationships. When we actively choose each other, we are sending a message to everyone about the importance our marriage has above everything else. Lord, continually...

Dear Lord,

Please help us not to let frustrations or selfishness creep up and keep us from being vulnerable with each other. If we’re tempted to withhold intimacy from one another, direct our hearts to do what is right. Prompt us to pray when our flesh attempts to push each other away. Help us to embrace each other still. Keep our intimacy alive and passionate. Extinguish any self-centeredness convincing us to withhold until we get what we want. Lord, will You help us to give of ourselves...

Dear Lord,

Will You show us how to receive healing after conflict in our marriage? Will You teach us how to apply Your wisdom and comfort to one another in tangible ways? Reveal to us the value of confession and being held accountable to each other. Lord, help us to be transparent with one another and to confess what we are wrestling with so that we can support each other through the process of reconciliation. Give us the courage to hold up the shield of faith while praying for one another...

 

Dear Lord,

Thank You for redemption! Thank You for setting us free from the bondage of sin and giving us true victory. Sometimes we get discouraged, believing we will never be able to change. Sometimes we sin, causing a great amount of pain in our marriage. Please remove the feelings of failure and shame that plague us, hindering us from maturing. Help us to receive Your forgiveness and be willing to forgive one another when we transgress. Create in us a steadfast faith! Lord, please help...
