*A SPECIAL PRAYER FOR MARRIAGES.* *Scripture Reading:* Psalm 107:20 *"He sent His word and healed them, And rescued them from their destruction"*(AMP). It's the Lord will to see our MARRIAGES bringing honor, impacting lives, preaching Christ as the center of love and fulfilling purpose of creation. *There won't be need to visit the hospital if you are not sick, so many marriages is sick and only the Lord can heal it because He His the CEO, the founder.* By your word I ask that every husband and wife will turn to You, Lord Jesus, and remember that You are their First Love - their sure foundation in Jesus Christ name. *I also pray specifically for husbands to have such a deep and sacrificial love for their wives; they will be willing to lay down their lives for them. Help them to care for their wives as they care for their own bodies, feeding them, nurturing them, and providing for them in the most loving of ways(Ephesians 5:25-29).* *I pray for wives to dismiss the belief that submission is a sign of weakness and instead embrace it as a powerful example of the Holy Spirit in them. Dear Lord, give them a sense of great joy in submitting to their husbands as is fitting to You (Ephesians 5:22-24). Let there be a healthy, holy balance of give-and-take that is full of love, mercy, and gentleness.* Most of all, Lord, build a solid foundation for every marriage committed to You. Brick by brick, establish the groundwork for couples - no matter how long they've been married - to build upon Christ Jesus and thrive in their marriages as a witness of Your work in their lives in Jesus Christ name. I ask for a special blessing on marriage in general, as a sacred union between a man and a woman(Genesis 1:26-28). I pray for a hedge of protection around this union that Your mighty hand will lead couples to honor you in their relationships and seek You in all things. Holy Spirit, help both the husbands and the wives to always drink from their own well and also, help the husbands to always be satisfied with the breast of their own wives (Proverbs 5:15-19). And according to (John 2:1-11), *is there any marriage that their wine got finished in the journey of life and they were stranded or the enemy came to stole their wine away out of their carelessness, Lord Jesus, let there be a fresh wine and oil in their homes in Jesus Christ name. Amen!* Good morning and happy Sunday, peace. T.S. AFOLAYAN
