We join you in bringing your marriage before the Lord and we thank God for your heart to see your marriage restored, strengthened and kept vibrant in love. Your desire for deep reconciliation, renewed curiosity, affection, romance and desire for one another within your marriage is beautiful and it aligns with God's design for marriage as a lifelong covenant between a man and a woman.

We agree with you that marriage is to be held in honor and that intimacy within marriage is holy, good and God given. The husband should give to his wife her conjugal rights, and likewise the wife to her husband as we read in 1 Cor 7:3. Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers, Heb 13:4. Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh, Gen 2:24, and what therefore God has joined together, let no man separate, Mark 10:9. We strongly endorse and rejoice in your commitment to guard your marriage and to seek fulfillment only with one another, for seeking entertainment or intimacy outside of marriage would be adultery and a breaking of the covenant, and we pray with you that the Lord will keep you both from temptation and draw you closer to each other.

We also notice that your prayer speaks of Lord but does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We want to gently remind you that it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and it is only by His name that 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. 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. So we come to God humbly in the name of Jesus, trusting in His death and resurrection for our forgiveness and reconciliation with God, and we encourage you to place your marriage and your own hearts fully under His lordship, believing that if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved, Rom 10:9.

We pray together for you and your husband now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ and we lift up this marriage to You. Lord, You see every wound, disappointment, rejection, misunderstanding and pain that has created distance, and we ask You to heal those places with Your grace. Renew tenderness, affection, communication, trust, desire and genuine love only for each other. Restore the sweetness, joy, passion, friendship and unity that You intended from the beginning. Help them to continue discovering each other and finding new ways to express their attraction in purity and love within their covenant. Keep their marriage from becoming emotionally or physically distant or predictable in a way that dulls love, and instead let their intimacy mature without losing its excitement. We ask You to break off every barrier standing against healthy marital intimacy, whether emotional, physical or sexual, and to make whole whatever is lacking. Teach them to make time often to communicate openly, to listen with grace, to forgive quickly, and to be intimate with joy and faithfulness. May husbands love their wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it, Eph 5:25, and may wives respect and cherish their husbands, so that their home reflects Your love. Guard their hearts and eyes from looking outside the marriage for fulfillment and keep their desire fixed only on one another. Let their love grow deeper with the years and let their unity be a testimony of Your redeeming power. We do not decree in our own authority, but we humbly ask according to Your will, trusting that You are able to work miracles and restore what has been broken. In the name of Jesus we pray, amen.

We encourage you to continue to invest intentionally in your marriage. Make regular time to talk without distractions, to pray together, to show kindness and goodwill, to date one another, to speak words of affirmation, and to forgive as Christ forgave you. Keep curiosity alive by asking questions, listening well, and celebrating new seasons together. Guard your marriage by setting boundaries with outside influences and by keeping your emotional and physical affection exclusively for one another. The Lord delights in restoring and renewing what is surrendered to Him, and we trust He will continue His good work in your home as you seek Him together in Jesus name.

We were moved by your honest prayer for your marriage. Wanting to keep curiosity, affection and desire alive over the years is a beautiful and God honoring longing, and wanting to protect your home from distance or outside temptation shows real care for your husband and your vows.

One thing we have found helps couples who want that kind of closeness is making their marriage feel like the safest place on earth. When you both feel safe, hearts tend to open naturally, and tenderness, communication and physical affection can grow without being forced. When safety feels thin, hearts tend to close.

A simple place to start this week could be setting aside one unhurried time, phones away, to ask each other gently what helps you each feel safe, cherished and heard, and what makes it harder to open up. Just listening to understand, without fixing or defending, can rebuild a lot of trust.

We are praying for you both.

Father, we bring this marriage before You in Jesus' name. Heal past hurts and disappointments, soften any distance, and renew communication, trust and affection between them. Help them make faithful time for each other and grow in a love that is tender, faithful and joyful together. Amen.
