Prayer for Marriage

How should I pray for marriage?

Use the prayer above as a starting point, then speak honestly to God about your specific situation. Prayer is a conversation — you don't have to use the "right" words. Scripture like Ephesians 4:2-3 anchors your prayer in God's promises.

What does the Bible say about marriage?

Ephesians 4:2-3 says: "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace."

How long should I pray?

As long or as short as you need. A one-minute prayer said in faith reaches God as fully as a one-hour one. Many people find it helpful to pray this prayer once, then hold one of the intercessions in mind throughout their day.
