We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this marriage before Him. Father God, we ask that You would break every chain of evil that seeks to divide this union. Your Word declares in Matthew 19:6, "So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart." Lord, we rebuke every spirit of division, strife, and discord in the name of Jesus Christ. We pray that You would restore this marriage, both physically and spiritually, so that it may reflect Your love and unity.
We also lift up the financial burdens weighing on this family. Father, You are the provider of all good things, and we trust in Your promise from Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus." We pray for a good and stable job that will meet their needs and allow them to honor their debts. Lord, we ask that You would open doors of opportunity and grant wisdom in managing finances according to Your will.
However, we must address the importance of coming before You in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which we can approach the throne of grace. Acts 4:12 tells us, "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!" Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father, and it is through His sacrifice that we have access to Your presence. We encourage this couple to place their faith firmly in Jesus, for He alone can bring true healing and restoration.
Father, we pray that this marriage would be built on the foundation of Christ. May they seek You together, growing in faith and love for one another. Help them to forgive past hurts and to walk in unity, honoring the covenant they made before You. We ask that You would bless them with a renewed love and commitment to one another, reflecting Your love for the Church.
Lord, we also pray for their spiritual growth. May they be rooted and grounded in Your Word, finding strength and guidance in Scripture. Help them to resist temptation and to stand firm in their faith, leaning on You in every circumstance.
We declare that no weapon formed against this marriage shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against it in judgment, You will condemn. We stand on Your promise in Isaiah 54:17, "No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is of me, says Yahweh."
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
