Sincere prayer is telling God what’s in your heart, connecting with Him as you grasp His plan, coming boldly to the Lord through the scriptures and His words. Genuine prayer helps foster a feeling of closeness to God. When you realize how loving and kind God, your heart will be filled with hope. When you engage in sincere prayer, your life lights up, and your heart will be at peace.  Imagine doing and experiencing this with your spouse; this boosts your bond as a couple and strengthens God’s significance in your lives.

It’s so valuable for married couples to pray together. Spending time talking and praying about matters and concerns helps you see life and your spouse’s troubles in a better way. Praying enables you to focus on your spouse and the things you should do that promote a healthy relationship. Praying together helps your spouse become aware of your struggles and needs better. And prayer provides insight on how to help and deeply love each other.

Praying together strengthens the marriage bond, which is a wise way to seek God’s wisdom together. As you pray and come to agreements on matters, that discipline builds unity, harmony, and strength in the marriage. And prayer is also where you can fight for your marriage together when the challenging days come.

Praying together reminds you that God is the sole source of life, truth, love, and hope. When you pray together, you are focusing your minds, hearts, and marriage on God. You are making your marriage God-centered. You are sharing with Him your deepest needs and desires, hopes, and dreams.
