Dear Couple, Never Stop Praying

Prayers have tremendous power. God answers requests. My mother told me when I was about 10 years old that I would be a pastor. I didn’t agree with her. I stated that I aspired to be a businessman. She stated that she will pray, and we shall see!

When I was sixteen, she went home to live with the Lord. When I was nineteen, Jesus appeared to me in a night vision, and I was immediately called to ministry.

God heard her requests!

I will not claim that God answered all of my prayer points, but God did respond to my prayers most of the time.

I prayed for folks over the phone and online for fruit of the womb, jobs, marital breakthroughs, liberation from sexual perversion, bodily healing, and many other things, and God answered by fire!

God responds to requests. Do not give up on your partner, marriage, or house, and do not stop praying!

Pray, and then pray some more! Never stop praying in the Spirit. God will astound you.

Here are five prayer points you should use on occasion.

Dear Couple, Never Stop Praying

1. Lord, reveal to me what I don’t know that I think I know.

The majority of marriage problems are caused by ignorance. There are a lot of things we don’t know that we think we do.

There may be no development as long as you remain stubborn, without adjusting, and without being open to the possibility that you are incorrect. Nobody knows everything, not even me.

I might have written a devotional a day for a while, then two each day for a while. Every day, I am reminded that I still don’t know a lot of things. I continue to learn, read, and am open to revelations from God’s Spirit. I am not a marital specialist. I am merely a vessel in the hands of God.

Jer 33:3 (KJV)
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

Your marriage will improve if you start learning things you didn’t know before and decide not to stick to what you used to know.

2. Lord, shield me from the enemy’s flaming darts.

The Bible speaks about the burning darts that the enemy throws at us. But have you ever needed to summon someone to remove darts from your back or neck?

No!

So, where have those darts gone?

Those darts are the devil’s thoughts and suggestions. They are mental assaults.

The Amplified Bible refers to them as missiles!

The modern English version refers to them as flaming arrows!

Be cautious, husband and wife, when unpleasant thoughts enter your minds!

I believe this is why the scriptures says:

Eph 6:16 (KJV)
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

Rick Renner explained that

“The words “fiery darts” are from the Greek word belos. It referred to an arrow with its tip wrapped with fabric soaked in flammable fluids so it would burn with hot and angry flames. The famous Greek writer Thycidides used this Greek word belos to depict specially-made, long, slender arrows that outwardly looked harmless; however, the hollow interior of the arrow was filled with flammable fluids that, upon impact, exploded into a raging fire. This last arrow is most likely the picture that Paul had in his mind when he wrote about the “…fiery darts of the wicked.”

He continued:

“Often when the devil strikes, his attack looks inconsequential at first, like harmless little arrows that can do little damage. But when those arrows strike into the heart or emotions, they often explode and set human passions aflame, causing a minor issue to develop into a fierce, flaming situation. The damage done in such a moment is very serious — and all of it could have been avoided if the shield of faith had been held high and regularly doused in the water of the Word!”

In collusion, soak yourself in the word, it will render the arrows and missiles useless.

God bless your relationship and marriage
