Pray for Marriages!

Beginning yesterday, and (Lord willing) ending tomorrow at dinner time, I will be fasting & praying for marriages.

Last week, my brother in The Lord received a Word from God about praying & fasting for marriages & families. In our Church, there has been a STRONG offensive against marriages, families, and children. I thank God that my brother listened to The Lord, and obeyed His voice without question!

We need to take a stand against Satan, and tell him that HE CANNOT HAVE OUR MARRIAGES, HE CANNOT HAVE OUR FAMILIES, HE CANNOT HAVE OUR CHILDREN, and HE CANNOT HAVE US!!!! Praise The Name of Jesus!

If The Lord so leads you, please try to fast & pray for these issues. If you cannot fast, at least pray for these things, and contact other brothers & sisters to do so as well.

We need to take a stand. We need to do it now.

The marriage has been the foundation of the family since the beginning of time. It is the foundation of the relationship between a man and a woman, as well as the foundation of the relationship between our families & God.

Pray for restoration. Pray the God would restore what the locusts have eaten.

Pray that he would open the eyes of the unbeliever in an unequally yoked marriage. Pray that he would open the eyes of the believers in a marriage that may be in distress.

Pray that forgiveness would prevail. Pray that the Name of Jesus would be glorified in marriages that are restored, and that Jesus would be sought first & foremost in marriages that need restoration.

Let's pray NOW:
Lord Jesus-we need your intervention in marriages. We need your help first-in our own marriages, and then in the marriages of people we know that are in distress. Help us to love our spouses as You loved the church. Help us to ask for forgiveness, and to extend forgiveness when necessary (and to do so freely). Lord-we lift up people we know who may be going through a trial in their marriages. Help us to pray for them, help us to seek them out, and help us to understand what we may be able to do to help them. Lord, use us to help restore what the enemy has tried to break up.

We pray this in Jesus' Name. AMEN!

If you, or someone you know needs prayer, please ask by posting a prayer request on this BLOG.
