We lift up your daughter and her husband before the Lord, interceding for their marriage to be rooted in holiness, unity, and the peace that surpasses all understanding. Marriage is a sacred covenant established by God, and we pray that their union would reflect His design—a lifelong commitment built on love, faith, and obedience to His Word. As it is written, *"Wives, be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it"* (Ephesians 5:22-25, WEB). May they both embrace their God-given roles with humility, grace, and selfless love, submitting to one another in reverence for Christ.
We also pray that their marriage would be a testimony of God’s faithfulness, marked by forgiveness, patience, and a shared commitment to seeking His will. *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). May they invite the Lord into every aspect of their lives, allowing Him to be the foundation of their home. If there are any areas of strife, misunderstanding, or sin—whether it be unforgiveness, pride, or worldly influences—we rebuke these in the name of Jesus and pray for repentance and restoration. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9, WEB).
Additionally, we notice that the name of Jesus was not invoked in your request. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name by which we are saved. *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me'* (John 14:6, WEB). *"There is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). We encourage you to always approach the throne of grace in the name of Jesus, for He is our mediator and the source of all blessings.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this marriage. Bind them together in Your love and cover them with Your peace. Remove any division, temptation, or distraction that seeks to harm their union. Fill their hearts with Your Word and their home with Your presence. May they grow in faith together, serving You with one accord and raising a godly legacy for Your glory. Strengthen them to resist the enemy’s schemes and to walk in purity, joy, and unity. Let their marriage be a reflection of Christ’s love for His church—unconditional, sacrificial, and everlasting. We declare Your promises over them, trusting that You will perfect that which concerns them. In Jesus’ precious and holy name, we pray. Amen.
