When you and your spouse pray together, you also fight together. By staying by each other’s side in the spiritual battle, you help to keep each other vibrant and alive for God and His work. You also serve as God’s instrument of protection for your marriage and your family.
15. Unite Together: What God has joined together, let no one separate.” This scripture from Mark 10:9 provides the ultimate look into the power of praying with your spouse. It is a scripture often read at wedding ceremonies. Unfortunately, it’s the only time many married couples face God together. But it wasn’t intended to be that way. By praying together,  you ensure that no matter who or what comes your way, God’s favor will remain with you. Prayer unites your hearts, your minds, your souls, and your strength. When you and your spouse are united through God, your marriage will remain as strong as He intended
