Prayers For A Strong Marriage

Marriage is both incredibly important and incredibly hard.

No matter the circumstances, marriage takes a lot of work. Luckily we are not left to our own devices – we have a God who is deeply invested in us and our marriages.

This list was created by us, Alexis and Aaron, a married couple since 2008 who have been best friends since 2000. We know the challenges and joys marriage brings, and we wanted to help equip you with some prayers to help you aid your marriage!

Prayer is always a good thing for marriage whether things are good right now or a little rocky. When we pray, we are turning to God and seeking His way, truth, and light in our lives and our marriages. So we invite you to sit back and slowly go through these prayers as you do be aware of God’s presence and love for both you and your spouse.

God, I don’t know if I really live as though my marriage is the most important relationship I have with another person. I want to place my spouse above all others including the kids, friends, and work – but it’s really hard to do that when there are demands from so many places. Help me to trust that there is true reward and fruit in placing my holy marriage above all else. Amen.

God, I’m sorry for taking my spouse for granted. I ask too much of them. I expect too much from them. Lord, sometimes I expect them to be like You, the source of my healing, strength, and love. While my spouse does provide me love and support, they can never be You. It’s not fair for me to expect them to be so and I’m sorry for the toughness I have shown them. Help me to see clearly and to give my problems to You for the true source of healing and hope. Amen.

Prayer For A Great Marriage | Prayers For A Great Marriage

God, there is much to learn from the way You function and interact as the Trinity. You are in perfect union with each other. The three of You each have different functions, but make up one God. Help us to see our marriage through the example of You as the Trinity. Help us to see we are both unique and have different functions. As one, a married couple, we come together as something beautiful and profound. While it is hard to wrap our minds around the Trinity, may we glean some deeper understanding of You in our marriage? Amen.
