It's Marriage Prayer Friday!

Today we are praying for married men and women to hear God's Word and put it into practice like wise people building their houses on a sure foundation — the Rock of their salvation.

A prayer for your own marriage—

CREATOR GOD, thank you for establishing my marriage and home on the firm foundation of You. Thank you that Your grace and power are sufficient to bring us back whenever we drift away from that foundation. Please strengthen me and my husband/wife to honor You as the builder of our family (Hebrews 3:3) and forgive us for those times when we make anything about our home (stuff, schedules, circumstances, etc.) more important than You. Most of all, Lord, please make our hearts Your home and dwell within this family. Fill the walls of our home with the sounds of laughter, joy and praise to You. AMEN


Something to pray for a friend's marriage—

CREATOR GOD, thank you for establishing the sacred union of marriage on the firm foundation of You. Thank you that Your grace and power are sufficient to bring any marriage back to Yourself even after it has drifted away from Your foundation. Please strengthen my married friends to honor You as the builder of their families (Hebrews 3:3) and forgive them for those times when they make anything about their home (stuff, schedules, circumstances, etc.) more important than You. Most of all, Lord, please make their hearts Your home and dwell within their families. Fill the walls of their homes with the sounds of laughter, joy and praise to You. AMEN
