Day 9: Prayer Focus: Relationship 1 Marriages:
Scripture Base: Hebrews 13:4
“Marriage is to be held in honor among all [that is, regarded as something of great value], and the marriage bed undefiled [by immorality or by any sexual sin]; for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.” (Hebrews 13:4, Amplified Bible)
- Introduction:
Marital problems are what satan and his evil-force have been using to frustrate faith and distract most Christian Believers.
Some years ago, I heard a court-judge implore some Christian leaders whose divorce cases were pending before him, to go and work on their marriages.
He did mention that the statistics show that a large percentage of divorce cases in his court were of Christian couples, especially Church leaders.
Do you want to know the reason?
The major reason is that satan works at frustrating the power of agreement among Christian Believers, in order to disable the army of God. Unity is strength.
The Bible says, “I also tell you this: If two of you agree here on earth concerning anything you ask, my Father in heaven will do it for you. (Matthew 18:19, NLT)
Such power of agreement is found basically in a marital relationship between husband and wife.
The man and woman joined in unity of faith and honoring God commands great power such as posited in this Bible verse: “…one have chased a thousand, and two have put ten thousand to flight…” (Deuteronomy 32:30, ESV)
Hence the forces of evil are influencing the ongoing confusion and perversions of the institution of marriage in the world-that are manifesting as celibacy, same-sex marriage and other related evils.
We should be aware that unseen forces of evil are working overtime to alienate God and Humans by influencing rebel behavior among humans to irk God.
However satan seems to have forgotten the speaking blood of Jesus Christ that has brought forgiveness, reconciliation, righteousness, restoration etc. to Humanity.
People of God, I challenge you to fight for your marriage and pray also for all ailing marriages. Let us do this together.
#PrayerPoints4Today:
- Worship :
In the beauty of holiness and in the splendor of His love, spend some good time in singing praises to God. (READ 2Kings 3:15)
Even if you are divorced or pending, look to God your Rock and pour out your heart to Him. Appreciate God for the grace of marriage. Thank Him for your Spouses and your support network.
If you desire marriage, it is a good and legal desire: thank God who grants desires.
- Supplications:
Ask that the grace of reconciliation be ministered to your spouse as well (READ 2Corinthians 5:11-21).
Pray that Godly order be restored to your marriage (READ Ephesians 5:22-33).
- Spiritual Combat:
In unity of faith, let us stand against divorces and everything that creates the atmosphere for divorce. And also command their influencing evil-spirits with their relatives, to go at once to the feet of Christ, such as:
Anger, bitterness, negative sexual orientations, unforgiveness, bitterness, hatred, fear, domination, apathy,interfering relatives, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, evil custom and traditions;
With frigidity, sexual abuses, past painful experiences, repressed hurts, wounded soul, disharmony, rebellion, resentment, victim mentality, and stubbornness;
Including occult-involvement, false religion, other man/woman, soul-ties to past lovers, discriminations, lesbianism, gayness, pedophilia, domestic violence/abuses, etc (mention your peculiar circumstances)
Command to stop at once and to immediately align to God’s original design, all marital problems including bloodline related issues such as :
One-parent family, sexual promiscuity, marriage failures, consecutive divorces and remarriage;
And child-marriage, late marriage, abortions, the apathetic husband or domineering wife syndrome.
Also, the rejection syndrome, frigidity, manic behaviors, prodigal adulthood, premature death of spouse, estrangement or separation of spouses and other related evils.
(Please add more conditions as the Holy Spirit sensitized you to them)
- Affirmations
Affirm that your marriage is a blessing and you are graced to endure and enjoy your marriage.
Declare that God’s intent for marriage is being displayed in your marriage and you are both the model that shows the love between God and Christ and between Christ and His Bride the Church.

- Intercession:
Spend a good time praying that God should miraculously intervene to reconcile and restore all troubled marriages. (You can mention names).
Ask God to also miraculously intervene to stop pending divorce proceedings to give His people the grace to work on themselves and the marriage.
Pray also for the marriages of Christian leaders that God should miraculously intervene to reconcile and bless them.
- Pray in tongues and thank God for this awesome session.
- Pray also for us:
That we the team are strengthened to continue strong despite the many adversaries.
