Pray for Marriages (Prayer, the Automatic Weapon)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

The exuberant and expectant joy of newlyweds is so charming.  If only it could be bottled and sold as a potion for the later years! But more powerful than any potion is the good news of the gospels and scripture heard with expectant faith.

Clothe yourselves with humility in your dealings with one another, for: “God opposes the proud but bestows favor on the humble. So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. Cast all your worries upon him because he cares for you. Be sober and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking for [someone] to devour. Resist him, steadfast in faith, knowing that your fellow believers throughout the world undergo the same sufferings. 1 Peter 5:5-9

Your fellow believers united in suffering are praying for you!  Prayers keep Satan at bay, as he thrives on bringing discord and despair into marriages. So let your voice be heard, first for your own marriage and then for one another’s.  Prayer is the ultimate weapon, so keep on praying for marriages and one day, we will see the increasing divorce trend in the world reverse.

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Prayer is like an automatic weapon.  Satan doesn’t have a chance when we pray with faith.  Pass it on!
