Pray for Marriages (Food for the Soul)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

Women, it is said that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.  Easy enough.  It can’t end there though, because the way to a man’s soul is through his heart.  He must be spiritually fed as well, so that his soul becomes sensitive to the fire of God’s love. Only then can his love become a blaze of glory!

Men, the way to a women’s heart is through her ears.  Nourish them with words of love, honor, and truth, followed by actions that mirror the same, and her heart will be yours.  But she too must be spiritually fed, or there will be an emptiness she feels that you never can fill.   

 “It is written: ‘One does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes forth from the mouth of God.’”  Matthew 4:4

What is your marriage hungering for?   The Lord is always knocking on the door of your heart, seeking to be the center of your marriage.  He wants you to keep Him there too, so he can nourish it, heal it, transform it, and make you and your spouse a beacon of light for others.

I am the bread of life. John 6:48

Perhaps your spouse doesn’t yet see the effects of his/her spiritual malnourishment.  Not to worry, you have prayer warriors petitioning on your behalf.

Holy Spirit come with the fire of your love!!  Bring the winds of change, so that even the most stubborn hearts are moved by your action within their soul. Create a holy curiosity for them to know you.  Fan into flame their desire to seek you.  Bless each marriage and reignite the sparks of love found early in their courtship.  Jesus, we trust in You!

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet
