Marriage

Dear Lord,

Thank you for Your patience, Your kindness and Your goodness. You are the perfect Father and You know how to give Your children good gifts. Father, You have blessed our family more than we could have ever imagined and more than we could ever deserve. Thank you for pouring out Your love into our lives. Not only do You take care of our physical needs, You have also taken care of our spiritual and emotional needs. Most importantly, thank you for giving us the most valuable thing You...

 

Dear Lord,

Thank you for today. Thank you for all that You have blessed us with. We love each other and we are so grateful for the gift of marriage. We pray that we would continually find new ways to love each other. We pray that we as a couple would walk out Your calling in our life to love not only each other, but also our brothers and sisters in Christ. We pray that we would take Your words seriously when You ask us to have a debt of love to one another.

In Jesus’ name, amen!

Dear Lord,

Thank you for Your love and kindness. Lord, we give You our heart and our desires. We pray that we will forever be yielded to You. We don’t want to lean on our own understanding in this world. We know You have the answers to every question we could ever ask. We know You have the best and most perfect plan for our lives. Lord, You are good and You always will be. Have it all.

In Jesus’ name, amen!

Dear Lord,

We know there will always be trials in our lives and marriage, but we get frustrated when there are things happening outside of our control. Lord, help us to trust in You with those things. Help us to lean on Your understanding instead of our own. Give us Your peace when these trials make us feel crazy and angry. You are still on the throne and the struggles in this life are nothing to be compared to the coming glory when Your son returns.

In Jesus’ name amen!

Dear Lord,

Thank you so much for Your Word. You have taught us so much about righteousness. We ask that Your Holy Spirit would transform our character so that we will be Holy like Jesus! We pray for time to devote to reading Your Word daily, to meditate on it and to memorize it. We desire to seek after You Lord, that You would fill us with Your peace and strength. We know we need to lean on You more. Help us! Help us to trust in You. We are confident that as we seek godliness we will become...

 

Dear Lord,

It is hard being patient. It is hard waiting to hear Your voice. It is hard waiting for Your will to be done. But You have called us to wait on You, and by doing so our strength will be renewed. We will learn to trust You and our faith will grow. Lord, help us to wait on You instead of rushing into things without You. We want You in everything we do. We want to be in Your will in every decision we make. You are our Lord and King.

In Jesus’ name, amen!

Dear Lord,

We are so blessed! Thank you for one another. Although we have a great marriage, we would both agree that we need more romance in our marriage. So we ask You for inspiration. Please fill our minds with creative ways to romance each other, to make special moments together, and to bless each other. Help us to be aware of each other’s needs and desires, and aware of how we can fulfill them. We pray for more romance in our marriage.

In Jesus’ name AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Thank you for children! Thank you for the opportunities You have given to husbands and wives to live out an example of Your love. Continue to equip parents with resources and skills to raise their kids. May husbands and wives pour into their children, value them, and teach them Your ways. Please protect children from hostile environments, and if they are ever in danger, please divinely intervene. For husbands and wives who cannot conceive, please reveal Your will and purpose for...

 

Dear Lord,

I pray for my marriage. I pray specifically for my sex life. I ask that you would help me to improve sexual intimacy in my marriage. I am sure there is something I can do to help make it better. Sometimes, I just want my spouse to do everything or make the changes in our relationship, but I am aware that I have responsibilities too. I want to be a person who can fulfill my spouse in all areas, including sexual intimacy. May you bless this part of our marriage, and may we both...​

 

Dear Lord,

Thank you for our marriage and thank You for the love that You show us through each other. Lord, we pray against the spirit of pride. We often allow our hearts and flesh to walk in pride. It makes us believe that we don’t need to be the ones to apologize or admit that we were wrong. Pride keeps us from seeing each other in purity, and keeps us from fellowship with You. We pray that every married couple would lay down their pride out of a fear of You, Lord. We pray we would walk...
