From the Praying Mama
There are alarming things happening in marriages and
families today in the church. I shudder at the thought of what Satan is
accomplishing.
I think `we have had it too soft in our land, we are free
from persecution, so Satan attacks another way!’
Men are bombarded with porn. Women with fads. Our culture tells
people, it’s all about “Me!” “You deserve this, or that” “Treat Yourself”
We no longer know how to serve one another. It’s more look
out for #1 even within marriage.
My husband and I feel the need to pray for our marriage more
and more, even though we feel we have it good. We have to be on guard against
things that would come between us. Not that we have it all figured out, but we
know the importance of prayer in helping us wear our armour and being on guard
for each other. We need to remember who the real enemy is, and it’s not each other.
So here are some things we pray for, I hope this blesses you
as well.
We pray for…
My husband, that God would help him to stay strong, wear his
spiritual armour and guard his eyes.
For me, that I would be the wife and mother God would have
me be, and that I would keep my emotions grounded on the rock, Christ.
That our marriage would stay grounded in the Lord, that we
would wear our spiritual armour, pray for each other when we’re together and
apart, and that we would seek ways to keep the romance alive.
Our home, that it would be a refuge from the world, that we
would fill our home with godly things, and not give place to the devil.
Our children, that the Lord would put a hedge of protection
around them, and that we would be on guard spiritually for them.
