Prayer Board

[frenchee]

Dear God, I come before you today asking for your protection and cover of grace upon marriages. I pray for every couple who is happy, those who are struggling, and those who may be on the verge of break-up--whatever the case. You instituted marriage and it is not your will for the union to be broken. I pray that eyes will be opened and spouses will be alert to the schemes and temptations Satan throws their way. It may be an 'innocent' flirt; a shoulder to cry on for another man or women; perhaps financial troubles or materialism; disagreements over the household or child rearing or even simple things; lack of respect or selfishness; failure to have priorities straight and keep focus on Jesus as the center of the marriage and each other above others. So many things can pull and chip away at a healthy relationship. May each heart be tender to the prompting of the Holy Spirit and each mind set on the ways of Christ and each soul safe in the surety of your love...so that when temptations come, they will be rejected as we draw near to you. Thank you, Father. In the name of Jesus I pray, amen.
