A Blessed MarriageSample

Let God surprise you in your marriage with His blessings. Ask Him to delight you in your relationship. When you do, you will discover that God is far more romantic than you may have ever imagined. He loves to show up and show out, providing you with special reminders of His presence and His care. Look for them, they are there if you will take the time to ask and then believe. 

Bear in mind that blessings don’t always mean something like a new car or a new house. Blessings in your marriage may be an increased ability to appreciate and enjoy your spouse. Or it could be a heightened attraction toward each other. 

It might include an expansion of the impact you are making on those around you, for good. And the awareness that as a couple you are able to do more for God when you work together as a team. 

Never be too shy to ask God to bless you. Pray it daily. Then watch what God does both in you and through you as a married couple. Blessings abound when your hearts seek the Giver of all good things, and you humble yourselves before Him in adoration, gratitude and praise. 

Closing Prayer

“Heavenly Father, You are seated in the heavenlies – high and lifted up, above all of Your creation. Your Word tells us that every good and perfect gift comes from You for You are the giver of all good things (James 1:17). And that You have already given us every spiritual blessing we are to have (Ephesians 1:3). It has already been determined by You to bless us. We only need to access this blessing through hearts set on You and aligning ourselves under You, asking You to pour out Your blessing onto us. In Jesus' name, amen."
