- Protect Your Marriage
The Apostle Paul said, “Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil" (Ephesians 6:11).
- The Power of Prayer
In the article, How To Protect Your Marriage and Family, the author writes, that we have a powerful, spiritual weapon called prayer. He says, "A prayerless marriage is a powerless marriage. When we fail to pray, our defenses are down; our flesh becomes weak consequently giving the enemy easy access to our areas of vulnerability. A prayerful marriage is a powerful marriage. Prayer, and the knowledge of God’s truth are powerful weapons in our arsenal. By taking time to pray daily with and for our mate, and spending time in God’s word we can win the spiritual battles and fortify our marriage against the wiles of the enemy. Protect your marriage with prayer" (Milam).
I can honestly say this is an area that I need to work on, I don't know if anyone can relate, but I go through periods of frequent and infrequent praying. For individual prayers, I try to say a prayer when I wake up in the morning, before I go to sleep at night, to bless a meal, before I travel and when I arrive at my destination safely. I also try to include a couple and family prayer.
