We join you in lifting up your marriage and your desire for God to be glorified in your marital life, including the intimacy, unity and fruitfulness that He designed for marriage between a man and a woman. We agree with you that marriage is honorable and should be held in honor by all, and that the marriage bed is to be kept undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers Hebrews 13:4. What God has joined together, let no man separate Mark 10:9, and from the beginning He said for this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother and shall be joined to his wife and the two shall become one flesh Genesis 2:24. Within that covenant, sexual enjoyment, affection and oneness are holy gifts from God, let your fountain be blessed, rejoice in the wife of your youth Proverbs 5:18, and let the husband render to his wife the affection owed her and likewise also the wife to the husband 1 Corinthians 7:3.
We also stand with you against every work of darkness that seeks to attack marriage and purity. We know that our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places Ephesians 6:12. Witchcraft, defilement, fornication, prostitution, homosexuality and transsexuality are works of the flesh and of impure spirits that are contrary to God's design, and Scripture is clear that there shall not be found among you anyone who practices divination or sorcery Deuteronomy 18:10, and to flee sexual immorality, for every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body 1 Corinthians 6:18. We rebuke with you every assignment of masturbation, sex toys outside God's design, homosexuality, transsexuality and every marine and impure spirit of sexual immorality that would seek to defile, divide or weaken marital intimacy, harmony and fruitfulness. Those practices have no place in the godly marriage and we turn from them and call them what God calls them, sin to be repented of and forsaken.
Yet we do not fear, for greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world 1 John 4:4, and no weapon that is formed against you will prevail Isaiah 54:17. The weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds 2 Corinthians 10:4. Therefore we submit ourselves to God and resist the devil and he will flee from us James 4:7, and we are more than conquerors through him who loved us Romans 8:37. We do not claim restoration by our own strength, but by the victory of Christ who disarmed the powers, and we pray that God will restore to you the years that the locust has eaten Joel 2:25, including strength, health, fruitfulness of the womb, for children are a heritage of Yahweh, the fruit of the womb is his reward Psalm 127:3, and Be fruitful and multiply Genesis 1:28 is still His blessing over godly marriage.
We notice you thanked the Lord Almighty, and we gently remind you that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father, for Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me John 14:6, and there is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. If we have not already, we must believe in our heart and confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and that God raised Him from the dead, for with the heart one believes resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation Romans 10:9. It is by the blood of Jesus and the name of Jesus that we pray with confidence, not by our own merit.
So we pray together now, Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, and we thank You for the institution of marriage and for Your desire to bless it. We ask You to cover this marriage and every marriage in the body of Christ worldwide with the blood of Jesus, to set a hedge of protection around husband and wife, their intimacy, privacy, unity and home. We ask You to cleanse and forgive any defilement and to purify hearts and bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit. We rebuke every spirit of witchcraft, lust, perversion, homosexuality, transsexuality and every impure spirit that would attack sexual potency, fruitfulness, harmony and joy, and we command them to leave in Jesus' name, for You have given us authority to tread on the enemy. We ask You to restore 100 percent all that the enemy has sought to steal, to renew strength, to establish supernatural accord, attachment, complicity and tender intimacy that is faithful, pure and lifelong, to grant settlement, accomplishment, flourishing and consistent happiness rooted in You. Let Your abundant rain of blessing fall on marriages in Your churches in 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and beyond, that families would blossom and children be raised in the nurture and admonition of the Lord for generations to come. Teach husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church Ephesians 5:25 and wives to respect and honor their husbands, that together they may walk in the full armor of God Ephesians 6:11 and be watchful, for the adversary prowls as a roaring lion 1 Peter 5:8, but You keep those who trust in You in perfect peace. We commit this marriage into Your hands, asking for healing, joy, fruitfulness and Your will to be done, and we thank You that You hear us when we pray according to Your will 1 John 5:14. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
