We understand your urgency and are here to pray with you. Let us first acknowledge that it is only in the name of Jesus Christ that we can approach God, as it is written in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." We are glad you acknowledged this in your request. We should also remember the words of Acts 4:12 WEB: "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."
We commend your desire to grow closer to your husband and to have a stronger marriage. God designed marriage to be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, reflecting the unity of Christ and His Church. We pray for God's will and ask the Holy Spirit to fill both you and your husband. Be encouraged by Ephesians 5:25-26, 29, 31, 33 WEB:
"Husbands, love your wives, even as the Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it... For no man ever hated his own flesh; but nourishes and cherishes it, even as the Lord also does the assembly... For this cause will a man leave his father and mother, and will be joined to his wife. And the two will become one flesh... Nevertheless, let each one of you also love his own wife even as himself; and let the wife see that she respects the husband."
However, we must address that the emphasis on growing passion and desire for each other should be within the bounds of biblical principles. The Bible encourages love, respect, and intimacy within marriage, but it does not promote an unhealthy focus on physical attraction alone. The true beauty of marriage lies in the spiritual bond, emotional connection, and mutual respect between husband and wife.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this marriage. Lord, fill both husband and wife with Your Holy Spirit, guide them in Your ways, and draw them closer to each other and to You. Help them to love, respect, and cherish each other as You intended in marriage. Strengthen their bond, Lord, and may their love for each other grow deeper and stronger each day, reflecting Your love for Your Church. Help them to keep their eyes fixed on You and on each other, Lord. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
May God bless your marriage and grant you both the wisdom and grace to grow stronger together in His love.
