Prayer Points for Marriage prayer

Why do we need marriage prayer points?

Along with families, there is a great attack on the institution of marriage. Broken marriages have a far-reaching effect. Statistics show that the current divorce rate in the United States of America is between 40-50%.

The number of marriages are also falling significantly over the last few years. More and more children are being born outside of wedlock. This lack of stability is crippling our societies. You may think that this is a US statistic, but it stretches far and wide. The decline in marriage rates is also mirrored in the UK.

God knows the importance of marriage, and designed it to be a cradle for families. We ought to stand up for our marriages.  Mark 10:9 “Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.” We need more and more men and women to take a stand for their marriages, more and more people to not walk away from their unions, but to seek the Lord’s direction and intervention in their marriages.

In the mighty name of Jesus, Lord we speak your blessing over these prayer points. May your anointing be upon all who will make use of these prayer points. May your presence bring resolution into marriages that are on the rocks today.

Father may more and more marriages be built on the rock that is Christ, instead of the sand that is worldly wisdom. Call back husbands’ hearts to their wives, wives’ hearts to their husbands.

Father raise more man into true fatherhood as you had intended it in marriages. Every spirit that rises against marriages, father may you raise a standard against them in Jesus’ name. Amen

Here are our prayer points for marriage. Share them with your loved ones.

 

Take your concerns to God

I believe if we as a people were able to grasp this simple teaching, many marriages would be saved, many relationships would be repaired. Many men and women across the world are hurting, hurting because of things that were carelessly said, words that were carelessly thrown around.

If I’m speaking to you today, I want you to know that there is healing, there is a balm in Gilead to make your wounded heart whole. That balm is Christ. This message is very personal to me, because Lord knows for the better part of my teenage years I spent time actively breaking relationships for minor reason that are insignificant even when I think of the today. Direct your concerns to God. I drew some principles from all this.

  • Never have a relationship outside of God: Regardless of whether it is a companionship, a friendship or dating. Do not go into any of it without bringing God in with you. God should always be a part of it all. It does not matter if the other person does not believe in God.

Think of it this way, if you are married, when you meet a new friend, they don’t have to like your husband/wife or believe in them. Your husband/wife is a part of you, the bible says 2 become one, which is the way it should be in our marriage to God.

When you take God with you into a relationship with a work colleague you close a door for the devil to place you in temptation for an affair. When you take God with you into a relationship with the company or your boss, you know who it is that you really answer to, regardless of whose name is on the pay check.

 

Church five fold ministry

  • Emotions should go through God first: Have you ever said something and then wished you had not said it, perhaps turned around and said “I didn’t mean it.” The sad part is that words, once released can not be taken back.

They sting. Whether it is love, anger or whatever other emotion you may feel towards a person, take it to God first. If your spouse makes you made, do not speak to them about it before you speak to God about it, vent you emotions to God.

When you speak to God he will begin to remind you, that “Vengeance is his” Romans 12:19, “Forgive as the father has forgive you” Ephesians 4:32. When you vent to the Lord, you become more conscious of things that you would have easily overlooked when talking to the person you are mad at, or the person you are in love with.

 

  • Get comfortable crying before God: In any relationship you get into, there is always room for hurt. To truly love is to expose your weakness and be at the mercy of the other person. There is nothing more healing than bearing it all to God when you have been hurt, when you have been lied to.

Get this, when the Shunammite (2 Kings 4:25-)woman ran to Elijah and was met by his servant, she told the servant that all was well even though her child had died. I learned this from Dr. Masiyiwa’s testimony recording, she had been given this child by God.

She had started this with God. God is obligated to fix what he starts with you. She knew it was well because God was the manufacturer, he would honour his warranty. Get comfortable crying before God before you run off crying to man. When your concern reaches God first, he is faithful to go on ahead and deal with the other person before you get to them.

 

Make a decision today, to never speak to man concerning an issue before consulting God, to never make a decision before consulting him. And finally to never take your concerns before man before taking them before him. Direct your concerns to God.

Father we give you praise for this wonderful teaching, heal our heart today. Grant us grace to start and finish everything with you. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.

God bless you, share this with someone else who needs to hear this message.

Marriage Prayer: Childhood hurt

“It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.” These are the words of Frederick Douglass. I believe that this is an analogy that applies to women as much as it does to men.

There are so many broken men and women who are being put together with other broken men and women and expected to create strong marriages. Father, heal our homes.

Psalm 34: 4

I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

  1. Father we pray for victims of sexual and physical abuse. Heal them Lord. Take away the scars and bitterness that have been left by these experiences. May they not be carried into their marriages and relationships.
  2. Lord we pray for parents and guardians. Give them wisdom to raise strong men and women.
  3. Lord raise strong marriages among us, marriages that the next generation can look up to and aspire to.
  4. Father we pray that you would raise mentors for our young generation, to show them the way.
  5. Lord we pray for broken parents and guardians to have the wisdom to not pass down their own hurt and insecurity to the next generation. Heal them father, as they raise these children.
  6. We pray for children being raised in undesirable situations to be rescued. Make a way for the dear Lord.
  7. Open our eyes to situations where you can use us to be part of the solution. In Jesus’ name.
  8. Give us boldness to walk in your will, and show as well as encourage others how to do the same.

Formation

Our societies are becoming ones without moderation. Marriages are a wonderful thing, but are being viewed less and less in that light. By the same token, more and more people are entering this sacred union blindly. Either because of the burden of pressure and expectation that exists within our churches.

The Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 7 acknowledges the beauty of marriage but also the ease of single life. It is good to be married, but not mandatory. Not all can be single and live a holy life, but neither can all be married. If you desire marriage, that is a beautiful thing. May the Lord deliver that desire to you, in Jesus’ name.

Proverbs 30:18

  1. Father, let the hearts of the wives be consumed with love and passion for their husbands. May husbands be equally consumed with love and passion for their wives.
  2. We speak your love into marriages in their formative stages. We speak direction and wisdom into relationships and courtships as they build towards marriage.

2 Corinthians 6:14

  1. Father we pray that you would raise more and more God-fearing men and women within the church.
  2. We pray for firm foundations in relationships.
  3. Raise more wiser men and women to guide the young lovers.
  4. Open our eyes and guide our choices of mates.

Proverbs 18:22

  1. Father we pray that you would open our eyes as we seek to find ideal mates.
  2. Give us wisdom to not be swayed by visual desires. There are ways that may seem right to men but will only lead to death. Preserve us oh Lord.

Genesis 2:24

  1. Father, you command a blessing where there is unity. Bring unity into our relationships.
  2. We pray for purpose and a shared vision for couples.
  3. Lord we pray that couples would well and truly become one. Raise us to value, cherish and to love one another.

Luke 20:34

  1. Lord make us co-guardians of our spouses’ souls. Give us a true desire to lead them in your way.
  2. We will be true stewards of the husband or wife that you give us. To bring the best out of them, as they do for us.
  3. May we love them as you have loved us, without condition but full of sacrifice.
  4. May our eyes be cast on things above, more than things of this earth.

1 Corinthians 7:9

  1. Dear Lord, may our desires for marriage be noble.
  2. Protect us from negative relationships, and protect others from us, where we may be their detractors.
  3. May our shared desires and vision bring us together in Christ and through him.

Love

Romans 13:8

  1. Lord teach us to love like you do.
  2. May our love be seen in our actions and heard in our words of affirmation to our loved ones.

1 Corinthians 16:14

  1. May our actions be guided love, in all that we do.

Ruth 1:16-17

  1. Lord give us loyal partners to walk through life with, they have become rare.
  2. Grant us grace to go the extra mile for our loved ones.

Romans 12:10

Longevity

With marriages falling apart sooner than ever before, there is a lack of longevity. Our prayer is that the Lord would grant us longevity. Father establish marriages that last long, marriages that are strong and with direction. Let there be marriages that are built on the rock that is Christ. That is our next marriage prayer point.

Proverbs 12:4

  1. Father we thank you for wonderful wives. We pray for longevity. Grace them in their day to day lives for fruitful and fulfilling marriages.
  2. Grant husbands grace to love and cherish the gift that is their wives.
  3. May no shame be her portion.
  4. She will be a source of pride for her husband and her children, in Jesus’ name.

Proverbs 31:10

  1. Lord give us grace to pursue a worthy life partner.
  2. Show us value, and make us valuable to potential mates.
  3. Teach us to identify and appreciate one another’s value.

  1. Lord, you have brought couples together. We pray that you would keep them together.
  2. Cast away any person that would like to separate marriages.

  1. Lord teach us to not dwell on one another’s shortcomings, but to love through it all.
  2. We will love fervently, as Christ loved.
  3. May our love cover the faults of our loved ones.

Ephesians 5:21:

  1. Lord, may we brought together by reverence to you.
  2. You are the foundation of our relationships.
  3. Anything that we haven’t built on you, may it not stand.
  4. We choose to build on the rock that is Christ.
  5. We submit to our wives and husbands for your glory, oh Lord.
  6. May our marriages be established and unbreakable.

Healing and renewal

We are going to pray for marriages that are on the rocks, marriages that are falling apart while we remain oblivious. There is nothing too dead for a resurrection. We are praying for those marriages that either spouse or both have given up on.

The bible says when Jesus arrived at Lazarus’ house, Mary and Martha had given up on his life. A healing was impossible, but a resurrection was inconceivable. May the Lord do the inconceivable for your marriage in Jesus’ name. Let love arise!!

Ephesians 4:32

  1. Father soften our hearts. Soften the wives and husbands’ hearts. Cast away all pain and hurt. Cast away all bitterness in Jesus’ name.
  2. Teach us to forgive, and grant grace to a point where it hurts.
  3. Father, you have continued to forgive us, may we show that same love to others.
  4. Heal us of hurt, open our hearts oh Lord.

1 Peter 3:7

  1. Father we pray for all husbands, give them grace to be of a patient and understanding disposition.
  2. Father teach husbands to honour their wives.
  3. Lord, may their weaknesses be strengthened by their wives’ strengths, and their strengths be their husbands’ strengths in Jesus’ name.
  4. May husbands never look down upon their wives, but view them as equals. In the name of Jesus!
  5. Let our prayers bear results, in Jesus’ name.

Infidelity

Infidelity is a key factor in the break-up of most marriages. We want to pray for resolution and in marriages that have been marred by infidelity. God can heal in all cases. It is not too late for your marriage. Father, where there is hurt, where there is mistrust, where there has been betrayal, dear Lord, help us.

Hebrews 13:4

  1. Father may our marriages bring you honour. Where we have brought you dishonour, we repent.
  2. Lord where we have been wronged and taken our eyes off you to focus on our hurt, help us look up to you.
  3. Where our marriage beds have brought you dishonour, father forgive us.
  4. Father, forgive us for infidelity on our part, or an unforgiving nature where we have been wronged.
  5. May your judgement be merciful in Jesus’ name. Amen

Exodus 20:17

  1. Father may our eyes be in covenant with you. To not look upon others wives and husbands.
  2. Where we have looked in lust, Lord forgive us.
  3. Any adulterous desires be cast away in Jesus’ name. Amen

Fruitfulness

Our mandate is one of fruitfulness on this earth. Our marriages are no exception. Our prayer here is that the Lord would grace us to be fruitful in all that we do. May the Lord birth fruitfulness in our relationships, in our homes, in our businesses and in all else that we set our minds to and put our hands to work on. In Jesus’ name. Amen

Genesis 1:22

  1. Father we pray for fruitful and fulfilling marriages. Open our eyes to traits in ourselves that may be a hindrance to this.
  2. Open our eyes to opportunity to sow seed of love and in love.
  3. May our hearts be consumed by your love, that we would not contain but share the fruit of your love.

Divorce

The hardest thing that anyone could possibly go through when it comes to relationships is a divorce. Our key marriage prayer is that the Lord would raise up men and women who have fallen down this pit. Let this not be the end, but a new beginning through Christ.

1 Corinthians 7:15

  1. Father we pray for healing where marriages have been broken by difference in faith. We pray for peace for both parties.
  2. We pray for children in these situations, cover them oh Lord.
  3. Let this relationship be one that they carry into their future relationships.
  4. Soften hearts for peaceful resolutions.

Ephesians 4:2

  1. Let our hearts be filled with humility, whether we were wrong or wronged.
  2. May meekness be our portion, through Christ.
  3. Even in divorce, let no hatred develop. May love reign.

How to Pray for Zimbabwe

pray for Zimbabwe

Geographical detail:

Zimbabwe is a landlocked country located in southern Africa. It shares borders with South Africa on the southern side, Botswana on the western, Zambia on the northern and Mozambique on the Eastern side. The capital city of Zimbabwe is Harare.

The country has an estimated populations of 16.3 million, source. English, Shona and Ndebele are the most widely spoken and recognised languages in Zimbabwe.

Dating as far back as the 11th Century, historians and archaeologists have found that Zimbabwe was a major trade route. The main kingdom involved in said trade was the Great Zimbabwe of modern day Masvingo.

Zimbabwe was under colonial rule from the late 19th century and most of the 20th Century. The removal of the white minority government came at the end of a bitter civil war, known and second Chimurenga.

The state endured international isolation and a 15-year guerrilla war with black nationalist forces; which culminated in a peace agreement that established universal enfranchisement and an independent sovereignty as Zimbabwe in April 1980.

Population: 16.3+ Million

Leadership

President: Emmerson D Mnangagwa

pray for Zimbabwe's leadership

Vice Presidents: Constantino Chiwenga, Kembo Mohadi

30+ Wonderful Points to Pray for Zimbabwe 2

Political brief: General Politics

Zimbabwe is a republic with a presidential system of government. A semi-presidential system was abolished with the adoption of a new constitution after a referendum in March 2013.

On 19 November 2017 in the wake of protests, ZANU-PF sacked Robert Mugabe as party leader and appointed former Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa in his place.

This was a military backed move, which was carried out while Mugabe was on what he later referred to as “house arrest.” The entire move has often been called a coup, but not really a coup. Perhaps pseudo-coup is a fitting term.

From his home, on the 21st of November 2017, Mugabe tendered his resignation prior to impeachment proceedings being completed

30+ Wonderful Points to Pray for Zimbabwe 3

The ruling ZANU PF, led by Emmerson Mnangagwa, narrowly won the elections in July 2018. The jury is out on whether this is the end of an era or continuing it under a different leader.

Economy brief:

Mining and agriculture still provide the largest chunk of Zimbabwe’s GDP. There are several reasons that one can attribute to this. One could say that this is a sign of a lack of progression over the year. Another reason could simply be the lack of investment during the period that they have been under sanctions. Mining and agriculture are industries that are usually sanction proof. 

A rampant mismanagement of funds and corruption within most industries has contributed to the death of a lot of companies. Investors have become weary of putting money into the nation as well. Add economic sanctions to all of this, and we have an incredibly difficult nation to govern and to reside in.

The main farm produce remain tobacco, corn, cotton, wheat, coffee, tea, sugarcane, peanuts and soya beans. This is mainly due to the ability to sell most of these locally, as well as export opportunity.

Livestock farmers raise a wide variety of animals that usually include cattle, goats, sheep, chickens and pigs. There is a wide consumption of milk and meat across the nation, so there is a lot of custom for livestock and related products locally.

The main industries are mining, farming and manufacturing. The mining sector produces coal, gold, platinum, copper, nickel, tin, diamonds, clay, numerous metallic and nonmetallic ores. The manufacturing sector produces steel, wood products, cement, chemicals, fertiliser, clothing and footwear, food and beverages.

There are reports of gas and petroleum reserves yet to be explored.

South Africa is currently Zimbabwe’s largest trading partner by a mile. They are the main exporter and importer from Zimbabwe.

What to pray for regarding Zimbabwe?

Prayer Points for Zimbabwe

Leadership : 1 Timothy 2:1-3

Everything filters down from the leadership. The departure of Mugabe leaves an opportunity for a new start, and improvement of leadership.

  • Speak a covering over Emmerson Mnangagwa, Constantino Chiwenga, Kembo Mohadi other government officials.
  • We pray for their health and well being
  • We pray that the Lord grant them wisdom and a heart for the people of Zimbabwe
  • May their families be preserved.
  • We pray for unselfish vision in leaders.
  • Pray for dialogue and consensus for a common purpose among the political leaders.
  • Pray for renewal of minds in leadership. 
  • Lord give them wisdom for such a time as this. New wisdom, to build a new nation.
  • Raise around them Nehemiahs of this day; rebuilders of what has long been broken.

Economic growth

Zimbabwean a desperate for a better economy. They are desperate for opportunities for themselves and for their children in their own country. Our prayer is that the Lord would raise dying and dead industries in the country. May the Lord raise innovators and a generation of captains of industry with fresh ideas. More than anything a leadership that fosters an environment in which all these things are possible.

  • Lord we pray for economic growth.
  • Pray for a lifting of economic sanctions against Zimbabwe by the USA.
  • We pray for innovation and wisdom in the mining sector.
  • We pray for an increase in Foreign Direct Investment.
  • We pray for wisdom and innovation to solve Zimbabwe’s financial crisis.
  • We pray for an establishment of new industries.
  • We pray against the spirit of poverty.
  • We pray for lucrative partnerships with other nations.
  • We pray for rain and wisdom for the agricultural sector.
  • We pray for success in the plans to revive old industries and factories. 

Health

Beyond health issues that plague the nation as a result of poor economic structures and infrastructure, better things need to be built. There is absolutely no reason why people should be dying of cholera in this century. As humanity we owe it to ourselves to be better.

  • Speak against the spread of cholera and other related waterborne diseases.
  • Pray for the preservation of lives against disease outbreaks and medical drugs shortages.
  • Speak against industrial strikes in the health sector. 
  • Pray for an improvement in health service delivery. 

Peace

Zimbabweans have always been known to be a pacifist and peaceful people. Our prayer is that that trait is not eaten away by the consistent nag that is poverty and corruption. Father may peace prevail over this land. 

  • Father we thank you for peace across Zimbabwe.
  • We speak against political violence and uprisings.
  • May your word find its way into more and more homes and transform the nation.
  • We pray that the government handle protests with grace.

The Church

The church used to be a respected vehicle of change in the nation. Today more and more people are turning away from it due to the blatant disregard of Christlikeness that has hit it. More and more churches are springing up and taking advantage of a people desperate for a saviour.

  • Lord bring authenticity back to your church.
  • Expose and uproot all wolves that have gotten among your flock.
  • Raise men women after your heart.
  • Raise the church as a vehicle of hope and of change in the nation.

Production

Proverbs 12:27 The slothful man roasteth not that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.

The verse above is unfortunately an accurate description of most African countries, including Zimbabwe. They diligent in hunting but never roast what they have hunted. This is the reason why our industries export raw material to be processed elsewhere and sold back to Zimbabwe at higher rates. Minerals are not being “roasted”, but are bought back as jewellery at premium rates.

  • Father make Zimbabwe a nation of producers, and not mere consumers.
  • Give them wisdom to build wealth for generations to come.
  • Give them foresight to build not only for themselves but for their children, a better nation.

General

There are a lot of other points that we have failed to find a home for under any of the other headings. Whatever else you think we may have missed out while praying for Zimbabwe, add it to this general section.

  • We pray for church leaders that their lives be preserved and good health.
  • Pray for the will of God to prevail in Zimbabwe. 
  • Pray for unity in the Church.
  • Pray for an awareness and growth of an entrepreneurial culture among the youth.
  • Speak against hoarding and shortages of basic commodities. 
  • Pray that sanity and wisdom prevail in the marketplace. 
  • Pray for economic reforms.

Thank you for partnering with us in prayer. Our goal is to create one of these for every country in the world. We want to be enablers of prayer warriors. This is part of our prayer for nations goal. If you would like to volunteer to create prayer points or be a part of our team of intercessors, please get in touch.
