So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate. – Matthew 19:6
God loves marriage because a healthy marriage reflects Christ’s sacrificial love for His people—His bride. Since the Enemy hates the glory of God, it makes sense that he would attack an institution that clearly is supposed to reflect that glory. Our community will only be healthy if we have healthy families. Our families will only be healthy if we have healthy marriages.
God, we ask You to strengthen marriages in our community so that more and more reflect the glory of Your sacrificial love. Please restore broken relationships and protect new marriages. Strengthen Your church so that we will be ready for the coming of Your Son. Amen.
