Prayer for a happy marriage

Ephesians 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.

Ephesians 5:33 However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.

Prayer

Dear Lord,

You are the creator of everything especially as it relates to love and matrimony. I ask that you put in our (my fiance and I) hearts unconditional love and perfect understanding of each other. Please take away all the pain and hurt in my heart.

Fill it with love, joy, patience, and understanding. Bless me and my partner, fill our hearts with love for each other, and may you make each one of us realize each other’s worth. Please touch the heart of my partner, fill it with much love for me. Make our complicated relationship become uncomplicated.

I seek for your mercy and blessing that you may allow us to spend the rest of our lives with each other. Please make this feeling mutual for both of us. Lead us not into temptations. Guide us wherever we go. Always put us in each other’s heart and mind.

Help build our new home and make our marriage one worthy of emulation. Let our marrriage bring people to the knowledge of you. And when our children start coming, make us wonderful parents to them giving us wisdom and unity in our hearts and minds as to the right way to raise them as godly and blessed children.

Please provide us with all we need to live a very comfortable life. Give us victory over the enemy, and all of life’s struggles.
Thank you Lord for answered prayers. Amen

  Our Daily Prayer In Our Marriage Together

 Loving Father, thank You Lord for the multiplied blessings there are in marriage, and that You made us male and female and united us together in love. Thank You for my wonderful life-partner, whom I see as a gracious gift from You.

 Thank You, Lord, for bringing us together in love and for the joy we find in our union with each other and our fellowship with You. I pray that You will continue to draw us closer to each other, to unite us together in love and friendship and to build up our relationship with each passing day.

 Keep us faithful to the vows that we made to each other and to You when we first became one in our beautiful and holy union. Strengthen our marriage day by day, we pray, and during those times of trials and difficulties, may we cling closer to each other and to You in love and patience, respect and kindness, integrity and forgiveness.

 May we keep You as the head of our family union and seek to do only those things that are pleasing in Your sight. In Jesus’ name we pray,         Amen.

 Marriage Restoration Prayer

 Dear God, it was You Who in the beginning said that it is not good for a man to be alone and so You brought forth woman to be his helper and companion, his comfort and friend. And Lord I thank You for the beautiful institution of holy matrimony.

 Father, today I come to You in sadness and distress because my marriage is facing some serious challenges and our love for each other seems to have waned into disinterest and mistrust.

 Help us Lord to restore our marriage, and bring us back to a place where we were so happy to be in each other’s company. Forgive the careless words and the foolish actions we have both engaged in and restore to us the beauty of the love we once had, I pray.

 Fill us both with Your love, and give us the wisdom and strength to rebuild our marriage with the strong bond of unity and grace that is only found in You.

 Thank You Lord for hearing this prayer, Amen.

 Prayer For Loneliness In Marriages

 Dear Lord, You created us male and female and designed us as relational beings, to live together in a marriage partnership, and yet we know that there are many who discover themselves to be lonely and often unloved or even rejected in their marriages.

 We pray for all those that are suffering this sort of loneliness, whether it is from rejection, carelessness, abuse or disinterest, and pray that Your comfort and peace would fill their hearts and that Your very presence would comfort their souls.

 Restore what has gone sour in such marriages we pray, heal the brokenness and isolation and comfort each aching heart, and we ask that You would draw them back into sweet fellowship with one another and come to know You in a deeper and more meaningful way. This we ask in Jesus’ name,

Amen.

 Prayer For Stress In Marriage

 Heavenly Father, our marriage is becoming increasingly stressful and I hardly know where we went wrong, but it seems that we are both getting increasingly tense about so many little things that we are taking it out on each other, and Father, I fear that unless this pressure in our marriage is addressed, we will drift further and further apart.

 Lord, I know that life is never easy and unless we cope rightly with life’s pressures, we become victims of stress which can so often lead to depression or even worse. Lord, please help us both us to address the mounting stress in our marriage in the right way, Show us what we need to do individually and as a couple to bring us through this stressful period, and help us both to depend on You to guide us along the right path into the way of peace and unity.

 Forgive me for not seeking Your help sooner but Lord, if there are areas in life that we need to address in order to reduce the stresses in our marriage, please show men and give me the wisdom and grace to recognize Your gentle promptings in my life.

 Bless our marriage I pray, and may we both learn to cope with the stresses and pressures in our marriage, as we seek to grow closer to each other and to You. This I ask in Jesus’ name,

Amen.

 Prayer For Reconciliation In Our Marriage.

 Dear Lord, my marriage has almost fallen apart and I hardly know when things started to go wrong. Things have become increasingly difficult and fraught and the love that we once had for each other seems to be dying. I hate the thought of divorce and was shocked when it was first suggested.  I come to You Lord, asking that You guide and direct us both in this increasingly hurtful situation.

 Lord, I don’t want us to separate or get divorced. I pray that in some wonderful way You will use this as a wake-up call for us both to seek You with all our hearts, and to change the way we treat each other. I pray that we may begin to apply proper biblical principles in our marriage, rather than dragging each other down by what we say, or don’t say.

 Lord, I know that by my attitude and actions, I have not been the husband/wife that You would have wanted me to be, but rather have not considered my spouse in the way that would please You.

 I pray that it may not be too late for reconciliation and ask that in Your grace and mercy, You would enable us both to move forward together, by placing You in Your rightful position as ultimate head of our family.

 Protect the innocent parties in our failing marriage and forgive me for all my foolish actions. Make me the man/woman that You would have me to be. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
