Dear Lord,

We submit all that we have and ask You to use it to do Your will. Give us wisdom as we consider how to spend within our means. We long to live debt-free and to owe no one anything, except our indebtedness to love others well.

Dear Lord,

Help us use our words to build each other up, build up our marriage, and build up Your kingdom. We want to speak life-giving words every day to remind one another of the truth. Give us words of encouragement and affirmation for each other every day. Lord, help us to be quick to use our words in a way that honors You.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

We desire the courage to forgive and let go of the offenses that cause us pain. Lord, help us understand that our forgiveness should not be contingent on the other person confessing or changing their behavior first. Stir our hearts to freely forgive just as You have forgiven us.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

We invite You to purify our hearts, cleanse our minds, and heal us in any and every way we may need. Thank You, Jesus, for healing us from our sin and covering us in Your righteousness. Thank You for the gift of salvation. May we remember daily the wounds You have already bound up and healed.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

In marriage, we face a very real spiritual battle every single day. And sometimes, it can feel like our spouse is the enemy. But the truth is, Scripture reminds us that “we do not wrestle against flesh and blood” (Ephesians 6:12). Our battle is spiritual—and God has equipped us with everything we need to stand firm together in marriage.

In Ephesians 6:10–18, Paul gives us a powerful and practical teaching on the Armor of...

 

Dear Lord,

Will You stir up motivation in our hearts to love each other by praying for each other even when we don’t know exactly what to pray? Please bless our marriage as we walk in obedience to Your Word. May we cheer one another on as we keep in step with You.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

We pray we would have a sincere and intense conviction about how we are supposed to treat one another in marriage. May Your Holy Spirit help us to be self-controlled, not quick to get angry with one another. We pray we would repent and forgive each other as we pursue reconciliation. Please help us never to shame each other for our sins.

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

One of the most common questions that we get at Marriage Helper is, “What can I do to show my spouse I’ve changed?”

People ask us this question because they’re so desperately wanting to do something to change the trajectory of their marriage and bring their spouse back. There are so many things that go into pulling a marriage back together. We wish we had a magic answer, a simple pill, a quick sentence, or a quick solution to show your spouse you’ve changed.

That isn’t how it works. In...
