Who Gives This Woman....? - A Nighttime Prayer

Therefore, a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and they shall become one flesh. -- Genesis 2:24 (NKJV)

Please Pray:

Heavenly Father,

We come before You and thank You for the blessings of holy matrimony. We thank You that You gave clear and Holy instructions for the sanctity and preservation of families and for a Holy pattern of peace, strength, and stability in our culture. We can never thank you enough for Your tremendous compassion, mercy, and grace over us as we have sinned over and over again, failing to follow Your holy guidelines for success.

Father- forgive us for the tragedy of unplanned pregnancies. None of this drama surprises You, yet we are living in a society where children are aborted, transgendered, and often abused or forgotten because we have failed to abide by Your best plans for marriage and family.

Father - turn our hearts back to YOU - to embrace Your Holy Word and to follow Your instructions for godly living. Help us to turn back the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the children's hearts to their fathers, and we pray now that You do not come and strike the earth with a curse, (Malachi 4:6).

All of these things we ask and pray in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
