Marriage is a sacred bond ordained by God, and one that requires constant nurturing and attention from both spouses. Praying for your marriage is essential to its success and longevity. It allows you to invite God into every aspect of your relationship, and seek His guidance and wisdom in times of difficulty. Through prayer, you can communicate with each other and with God, and grow in love and understanding towards each other. Praying for your marriage also establishes a foundation of spiritual intimacy, which strengthens your emotional and physical connection as well. In a world where marriage is often viewed as disposable, praying for your marriage is a powerful way to protect it and ensure that it remains a blessing and a testimony of God’s faithfulness.
