Protect Our Marriage From Evil – Today’s
Marriage Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

We ask that you protect our marriage from evil. May we never wander but rather always be vigilant — as soldiers dressed in Your full armor.

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. (Ephesians 6:13-17)

Thank You that there is victory for all who are in Christ Jesus — who walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit. Teach us to handle our emotions well and to show each other grace. Reveal to us Your truth so we won’t be deceived into believing a lie, for satan will always try to twist the truth to bring us under subjection.

We belong to You, Lord. This marriage is centered firmly on our faith in Jesus Christ.

In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Today’s Bible Verse

Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God. For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace. – Romans 6:11-14, KJV

_______________________________

In the same way, count yourselves dead to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body so that you obey its evil desires. Do not offer any part of yourself to sin as an instrument of wickedness, but rather offer yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and offer every part of yourself to him as an instrument of righteousness.14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace. – Romans 6:11-14, NIV
