Marriage

Dear Lord,

You have called us out, You have given us a new life. You have given us a new purpose, mission, and message. You have called us to be a part of Your kingdom and Your culture. We are called to be different and to stand out in this generation. Lord, we pray that we would stand out and not blend in with this dying world. We know that all we have to do to stand out is to follow Your word and to become more like Your son. Help us, Lord!

In Jesus’ name, amen!

We want them to know how to put You first always. Thank you, Lord.

Dear Lord,

There is so much deceit in this world today. Many Christians are being lied to and confused by false teaching. People are saying that Your word doesn’t mean what it says. God, we pray that you would show us that Your word is true. Shut the mouths of the liars and close the ears of Your people to their lies. Holy Spirit, show us what is true and what is false. Don’t let us be lead astray. We pray that we would trust You even more than we ever have before and that we would seek to...

 

Dear Lord,

We pray that we would be willing to serve each other every day. Give us eyes to see each other’s needs, and hearts that are eager to fulfill those needs. We pray that we are joyful, even when serving each other feels overwhelming or inconvenient. Help us to put each other first. Lord, please inspire us to be kind in our actions toward each other. Help us to serve with smiles on our faces and love motivating everything we do.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Thank you for good friends who we can talk to and share with what we are going through. Thank you that You created this thing called community so that we don’t have to walk this life out in seclusion. We pray that we would encourage each other more and more every day. We pray that we would not talk behind one other’s backs but would stick up for each other when someone does. May we be men and women who lift each other up and remind each other of who God is and who we are in God...

 

Dear Lord,

We pray for those that are parents. It is very hard and overwhelming sometimes learning how to be a parent. When our children are growing and changing and are frustrated and confused. It is hard to hold our composure and patience. Help us, Lord, to be patient and loving to our little children. Help us to teach them Your love and kindness as well as Your discipline. Give us patience for them and understanding and teach us how to teach them. We pray that our children would one day...
