What is wrong with these prayer requests?
- Oh Lord please let there be peace and joy in my marriage
- Dear Lord bring my wife back home
- Oh Lord save my marriage from divorce
- Oh Lord bring an end to all this pain in my marriage.
While these prayers express your desires to our all-powerful Heavenly Father, they often go unanswered.
Why? Because we may not be willing to change ourselves.
It’s like asking your father, “Please help me get an excellent grade in math without doing any extra work.” The desire for excellence is there, but without effort, the request becomes nearly impossible to fulfill.
How can you make the above requests much more powerful?
Here are some examples.
1) Oh Lord, please help me to tap into your wisdom to transform my marriage so that my wife and I can bear more fruit for you.
2) Oh Lord I confess that I have not been fully committed to your calling for my life. I receive mercy and grace to devote my life and marriage completely to you.
We will be praying these and eight more powerful points during our prayer session today.
