Marriage

Dear Lord,

The enemy is hard at work trying to convince Your people that Your word can’t be trusted. Lord, Your Word, is completely true and inspired by You. Your Word is how we know You and walk with You. We pray father, that if any believer is struggling to fully trust and believe Your Word, that You would give them full assurance. Thank you for the Bible. So many in this world are not even allowed to have access to it and yet yearn to have it. Give us this same passion and desire.

Dear Lord,

Our priorities are messed up. We often have the wrong things in the wrong spots in our life. We spend time and money on things that are not nearly as important as You, each other, our kids and other things that should be focused on. Lord, help us to re-prioritize our life. Help us to put the correct focus on the correct things.

In Jesus’ name, amen!

Dear God,

We pray that we would hate wickedness as You hate it. Help us not to tolerate it in our life, help us not to justify it, or be ok with it. We pray that we would be passionate to pursue righteousness. Help us to be brave men and women, who love You and hate evil. Transform our minds and transform our hearts. Lead us toward righteousness.

In Jesus’ name AMEN!

Dear Lord,

You have told us in your word that we will face trials and difficulties in this life. Being a Christian pretty much guarantees that we will face tribulation and suffering at some point. We have been so blessed in this country we can forget that suffering is a part of our faith walk. Sometimes we forget that You never promised us an easy life if we choose to follow You. We pray that You would change our hearts to be more like Your son Jesus. We pray that You would work our...

Dear Lord,

Thank you for coming into this world as a man. You came to love and to serve, to be a sacrifice for all mankind. We celebrate Your life Jesus because it has radically changed ours! Thank you for doing all that You did while here on earth and all that You continue to do. You have touched our marriage in a way that nothing ever has. You saved our marriage from falling apart. We honor and respect You. Thank you Jesus for loving us so extravagantly. You are mighty and worthy to be...

 

Dear Lord,

We come before You and humbly ask You to reveal Your will for our lives. We want to be sure that the decisions we are making align with Your plan for us! Holy Spirit please guide us, anoint our decisions, speak to us, and show us God’s will. If we start to turn from Your awesome will, please direct us back to what You have for us. We pray that You speak to us and confirm for us in those moments that seem quiet, still, or silent. Give us the strength and the faith to wait on you...

Dear Lord,

Make us gentle in spirit and word towards each other. Help us to be quicker to listen and slower to speak. Lord, we want to teach our children what it looks like to be gentle and loving to their future spouses. Lord, we want to walk in the spirit and not the flesh. We want to be the husband and wife that You desire us to be.

In Jesus’ name, amen!
