Marriage

Dear Lord,

Thank you for the responsibilities you have given us as a married couple. We know we each have a very important role in our marriage, and that You have high expectations for us as husband or wife. God, please help us and all of the other husbands and wives in this world to step up and take their responsibility with sincerity and honor. I believe that if all the husbands and wives in this world would turn towards you with their whole heart and would take hold of what...

 

Dear Lord,

Thank you for reconciling us to Yourself. We are in awe of Your great love for us. We know we don’t deserve what You have offered us and we know we certainly could never earn it. Thank you for loving us unconditionally. Your love is powerful and it has forever changed us. We pray that we can experience that same kind of love with each other. It is challenging to love unconditionally, but You have provided an amazing example. Please equip us to love each other like you love us...

 

Dear Lord,

Thank you for sending Your Son to die for our sins. Thank you that through the power of the Holy Spirit we can walk in freedom, purity and, victory. Lord, You have given us the victory over sin and death, and You have given us victory over lust. Because of the power that now lives in us, we can walk pure and holy before You.

Dear Lord,

Please show us creative ways we can enjoy our relationship, even in our simple interactions throughout each day. May we be a light in each other’s lives!

In Jesus’ name, AMEN!

Dear Lord,

Often your love is not received because we think that your love for us is based on how well we love or obey You. But what we need to understand is that Your love for us is based completely on what Your son Jesus did for us on the cross. Remind us daily that You love us just like You love your son. We can do nothing that would separate us from the love of Christ. Knowing this compels me to love You even more.

In Jesus’ name, amen!
