The Power To Build Up — Today's Marriage Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father,
We know that our words have the power to build up or tear down, to encourage or to wound. Help us, Lord, to choose words that strengthen and uplift, words that bring life and not discouragement.
Teach us to be each other’s biggest supporters, to see the best in one another, and to remind each other of Your truth when doubts arise. When the world is harsh, let our home be a place of peace, grace, and kindness. When we face challenges, may we stand together, holding onto faith and lifting each other up in love.
Help us to celebrate each other’s victories without envy and to be a source of comfort in times of struggle. Soften our hearts when we are tempted to be critical or impatient, and fill us with a spirit of gentleness and encouragement. May our love reflect the love of Christ—patient, kind, and always seeking to bring out the best in each other.
In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

It’s Not Too Late To Join:
Our new Bible study, Discovering Joy: Not Because Life is Perfect, but Because God is Faithful, is underway, but it’s not too late to join.
This interactive devotional is designed to help us uncover joy, not the fleeting kind that shifts with the winds of change, but a steadfast joy rooted in the faithfulness of God and held steady by His unchanging love.
Each chapter offers a short devotional to encourage your heart, a reading prompt to guide your study, and verse maps—a unique way to help you dig deeper into Scripture. You’ll also find moments of gratitude, practical ways to cultivate joy, and inspiring stories that remind us of God’s goodness.
Each week we’ll cover three chapters of the book, for a total of five weeks.
