Prayers For Unity In Your Marriageનમૂનો
The Belt of Truth
The two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Mark 10:8 NIV
“One of the elements of God’s rule is His heart for oneness, also known as unity. Unity can be defined in its simplest of terms as oneness of purpose. It is working together in harmony toward a shared vision and goal.” Tony Evans
Dear Lord, unity in our marriage is about so much more than just agreeing on things. Your Word tells us that our unity actually reflects You to others. Our disunity reveals how far we are from You in our spiritual lives and character. Help us to keep a mindset of unity that is tied to the truth in Your Word, rather than view our decisions and disagreements as competition of thoughts and will.
Jesus described the purpose of unity when He said, “I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me,” (John 17:23). Unity is our way of sharing and validating Your love not only for Christ and that You sent Him, but also for all of us.
Jesus said we are “perfected in unity.” That being so, we are far from perfected when we quarrel or hold strong to our own desires or decisions, with no regard for our mate. Help me—help us—to be perfected spiritually through the sanctifying process of unity in our marriage. In Christ’s name. Amen.

About this Plan
One of the greatest desires of married couples is unity. Ironically, it also proves to be quite elusive. Often, when differences of opinion creep in, the results lead to conflict, frustration and resentment. How should a couple pray in these situations? In our six-day campaign, Prayers for Unity in Your Marriage, couples will be able to claim oneness in their marriages, praying the truth of Scripture as they do. Each prayer resembles one component of the full armor of God, designed to equip husbands and wives with unity. For further help, Tony’s book, Kingdom Marriage fully explores the biblical foundation for marriage and gives couples the tools they need to foster healthy relationships.
