Overflowing With Joy – Today’s Marriage Prayer

Join Our Upcoming Bible Study

Get ready to join us for our next Bible study:
Jonah: The Inescapable Love of God.

This new study will kick off on October 10th and will continue for five weeks. To prepare your hearts, I encourage you to pick up a copy of the journal on Amazon. It’s a story that will challenge us to face our own reluctance and embrace the overwhelming, relentless love God has for each and every one of us.

Karissa will be back to bless us with her insightful videos. Together, we look forward to a deep dive into God’s Word and fostering an even closer fellowship among us all. Your participation has been the heartbeat of this group, and I can’t wait to see how God uses our collective thirst for wisdom to draw us nearer to Him and to one another.

Overflowing With Joy –
Today’s Marriage Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

May our lives be filled to overflowing with joy — established and strengthened by a true and lasting faith. May we be of one mind, living in the peace and the joy that come to those who follow Your will. Through trials and temptations may our joy never waiver.

It’s not easy to rejoice in tribulation or to give thanks when we experience difficulties, but through Your Spirit, all things are possible to those who believe — those who are faithful. May our marriage be one that honors You in every word, every touch, and every shared moment of happiness.

May no one try to cause us trouble, or to rob us of the joy which flows from Your Spirit.

In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Today’s Bible Verse

Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. – 1 Peter 1:6-8

In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy. – 1 Peter 1:6-8
