Pray for Marriages (Encircled in Prayer)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

 

Wouldn’t it be great to have a community you could share your marital joys and struggles with?  A community that would pray for you?  One where you can celebrate and commiserate?  

 

Why are you downcast, my soul; why do you groan within me? Wait for God, for I shall again praise him, my savior and my God.  Psalm 42:6

 

Well, you do have that here, you just don’t have to ask for prayers, because God knows you need them and we’ve got you covered. What, you have an awesome and blessed marriage? We pray for you too, because through you, engaged couples see what good looks like, and those who are struggling, have hope. Many do take note, and we celebrate you in our hearts. We are a circle of prayer that never ends, because the need never does. 

 

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the holy Spirit.  Romans 15:13

 

We are not a secret society, which is why it is important you pass this on!  We need MORE prayer warriors!  Don’t be shy in sharing.  Whether someone prays only once or prays twice a week for marriage and family, we are grateful, because each and every prayer has value.  I’ll never forget how years ago I shared the early struggles my husband and I had in our marriage and how the Lord entered in.  A most unlikely person came up and shared how she needed to hear that!  Here I thought she had a great marriage.  She did not.  Many suffer quietly, some loudly.  Prayer is so very powerful. While the Lord may or may not save your marriage, He will bring you peace. Have faith.  


Faith is the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

 

Everyone is invited to pray. Everyone’s journey began in a family. Everyone, even if they aren’t married, knows a couple that needs prayer. Let’s expand this prayer circle and let others reap the benefits!  It’s a small sacrifice for a big reward! 

 

Peace, Joy, and Love,

Janet
