Stand Strong Against the lure of Temptation – Today’s Marriage Prayer

Stand Strong Against the lure of Temptation –
Today’s Marriage Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father,

We live in a world where marriage is too easily tossed to the side. Where some give up, and others give in to temptation.

Father, we ask that You help us to serve You with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind so that we will be people who live according to Your will — people who value our marriage. Help us to recognize anything that might become a snare to us, and help us stand strong against the lure of temptation.

Let us tenderly give of ourselves, in sickness and in health, forsaking all others, as long as we both shall live. May we hold true to the vows that we made. Help us to love, honor and respect each other in the way that gives You glory.

In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Today’s Bible Verse

Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall. There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. – 1 Corinthians 10:12-13, KJV

_________________________________

So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. – 1 Corinthians 10:12-13, NIV
