Key 2: Pray for each other
When things are going well, it is easy to pray for each other. The moment, however, when there are differences in opinion, or contentions regarding conduct, and "not so gracious words" are shared, it becomes more challenging to pray for the other person. It is easy to fall into the trap of complaining about them to God in prayer. It is easy to start accusing their conduct, words, or behavior before God in prayer. It is easy to see yourself as the "victim" in a given situation.
The opposite is also true. It is said that if you pray for someone, you become spiritually attached to each other. As you choose to bless the other person spiritually, it influences not only their spiritual well-being, but also their emotional well-being.
QUESTIONS TO ASK
>> How easy do you find it to pray for your partner?
>> Honestly speaking, do your prayers currently include accusations or complaints before God about your partner?
>> Ask the Holy Spirit to show you anything displeasing to the Lord in your attitude towards your partner. Admit it to Him and ask for His forgiveness.
>> Ask the Lord to give you His words and thoughts to pray for your partner.
