When Should I offer a Daily Marriage Prayer?
When it comes to marriage, prayer is essential. Couples who pray together often find that their relationship is strengthened and they are better able to weather the storms of life. But when is the best time to offer a daily marriage prayer?
For many couples, the best time to pray is first thing in the morning. This allows them to start the day off on the right foot, asking God for guidance and strength. Other couples find that praying in the evening is more beneficial.
This gives them a chance to reflect on their day and express gratitude for all the good things that have happened. No matter what time of day you choose to pray, the important thing is that you do it regularly. Try to set aside some time each day – even if it’s just a few minutes – to talk to God about your marriage. You’ll be surprised at how much of a difference it makes!
Many people think that marriage is a sacred institution that should be honored with prayer. While there is no right or wrong answer to this question, there are some general guidelines that can help you decide when to offer a daily marriage prayer.
If you are having difficulty communicating with your spouse, or if you are experiencing conflict in your relationship, you may find that praying together can help to improve your communication and resolve disagreements. Additionally, if you feel like your marriage is struggling, or if you are facing a major life challenge, such as the loss of a job or the death of a family member, offering a daily marriage prayer can provide comfort and support.
Ultimately, the decision of when to offer a daily marriage prayer is a personal one, and there is no correct answer. However, by considering your situation and how prayer might be able to help, you can make an informed decision about whether or not to pray together on a daily basis.
Where should I offer a Daily Marriage Prayer?
For those couples who choose to pray together, the question of where to pray can be an important one. Some couples prefer to kneel side-by-side at the foot of the bed, while others may opt for a more private setting, such as in front of a religious icon in the bedroom.
Still, others find that praying in the kitchen or living room allows them to focus more on their conversation with God.
Ultimately, there is no right or wrong answer; the important thing is that couples take the time to pray together on a daily basis. By doing so, they will not only strengthen their relationship with God but also with each other.
What did Jesus Teach about Prayer?
Jesus Christ himself is our perfect example of how we should pray.
In the garden of Gethsemane, we see Jesus agonizing over the cup that he was about to drink. He was in such anguish that he sweat drops of blood. And what did he do? He threw himself on the ground and prayed that if it were possible, this cup would be taken away from him. But he ended his prayer with “not my will but yours be done.” (Luke 22:42).
From this we learn that we should approach God with humility and a willingness to submit to his will. We also learn that we should bring our deepest concerns and cares to God in prayer, even if we don’t like the answer we might receive. Jesus also taught us to pray for our enemies and to love those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44).
This is a difficult thing to do, but it shows that we are to extend our love and compassion to all people, even those who are not easy to love. Finally, Jesus promised that if we ask for anything in prayer believing, we will receive it (Mark 11:24).
This doesn’t mean that we will always get exactly what we want
Why is Prayer so Important?
Prayer is an incredibly important part of the Christian faith. It is a way to communicate with God and to express our deepest desires and needs. It also allows us to thank God for His blessings, and to ask for His guidance and wisdom.
Prayer can be done individually or as part of a group, and it can be done anywhere at any time. One of the most beautiful things about prayer is that it can be customized to fit the individual’s needs. There is no wrong way to pray, as long as the intention is sincere and the heart is open.
A prayer is a powerful tool that can help us to overcome difficulties, find strength in our faith, and develop a closer relationship with God. For all of these reasons, prayer is an essential part of the Christian life.
Why is perseverance in prayer so important?
Prayer is a vital part of the Christian life, but it can often be difficult to maintain a regular prayer life. There are many distractions and competing demands on our time, and it can be all too easy to let our prayer life fall by the wayside. However, Scripture tells us that we should persevere in prayer (Luke 18:1).
Prayer is an essential means of communing with God, and when we persevere in prayer, we are indicating our reliance on Him and our desire to grow close to Him. Additionally, when we persevere in prayer, we are setting aside time to focus on things that are eternal and of utmost importance. This can help us to keep perspective when the demands of this world seem overwhelming.
Finally, persevering in prayer is a way of modeling dependence on God to those around us. As we see others around us who are faithfully praying even in the midst of difficulties, it can encourage us to do the same. Perseverance in prayer is essential for maintaining a strong relationship with God.
When we persevere in prayer, we are reflecting our reliance on Him and our desire to grow close to Him. Additionally, perseverance in prayer helps us to keep perspective and encourages those around us.

The very best Book I have read on Prayer is, George Mueller, Man of Faith, Heros of the Faith Series. ISBN 1-57748-177-1, I think it might be out of print now, so you might have to find it used.
But 20 Years ago after I got paid one week, I bought 50 + copies of this and gave one to every family in the church.
God Bless Greg
