Peace for a troubled marriage
Heavenly Father, in the Name of Jesus, We bring our marriage before You. We pray and confess Your Word over our marriage, and as we do, we use our faith, believing that Your Word will come to pass.
Therefore we pray and confess that we will let all bitterness, indignation, wrath, rage, bad temper, resentment, brawling, clamor, contention, slander, abuse, evil speaking or blasphemous language, all malice, spite and ill will be banished from our marriage. We pray that we will become useful and helpful and kind to each other, tenderhearted, compassionate, understanding, loving-hearted, forgiving one another readily and freely as You Father, in Christ, have forgiven each of us (Ephesians 4:31).
We ask Lord that we will walk in love, esteeming and delighting in one another as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us, a slain offering and sacrifice to You, God, so that it became a sweet fragrance (Ephesians 5).
Satan, we render you helpless in your activities in our lives. We come against the spirit of separation and divorce, and we loose you from your assignment against us. Satan, your power is broken from our marriage in the name of Jesus (2 Timothy 2:26).
Heavenly Father, we thank You that we will be constantly renewed in the spirit of our minds, having a fresh mental and spiritual attitude. We have put on the new nature and are created in God's image in the true righteousness and holiness (Ephesians 4:23). We have come to our senses and escaped out of the snare of the devil who has held us captive and henceforth will do Your will, which is that we love one another with the God-kind of love, united in total peace and harmony and happiness.
Lord we know that whatever you forbid and declare to be improper and unlawful on earth must be what is already forbidden in heaven, and whatever you permit and declare proper and lawful on earth must be what is already permitted in Heaven (Matthew 18:18).
Therefore, Lord, we ask you to speak to our hearts and heal our hurts so we may be reconciled to making this marriage work. In Jesus Name We Pray.
Amen
