Prayer

Lord, help my child’s spouse to remain a virgin. Guard him/her from “outer-course” (petting experiences); abuse; harassment; and pornographic content in music, photographs, and movies.

Develop in my child’s mate a desire to seek and ask forgiveness when wrong from both God and man. Teach my child’s spouse the basics of spiritual warfare, how to flee temptation, how to take thoughts captive, and how to stand firm against the devil’s schemes.

Help my child’s spouse to become a master of good, uplifting communication. Protect him/her from foul language and angry response. Give my child’s spouse deep, satisfying personal relationships that will prepare him/her for marriage without compromising his purity.

Teach my child’s spouse to be a good parent. Give his/her parents good parenting skills, and, if not, provide him with a godly role model. Be the Father to the fatherless if he has no father. Give my child’s spouse a hunger for God through prayer and Bible study.

Help my child’s spouse to make a commitment to the truth, to choose honesty in every situation, even when tempted to lie to lessen punishment or consequences. Give my child’s spouse a proper attitude toward money in giving, receiving, and working. Help him/her learn how to budget, save, and tithe.

Make my child’s spouse considerate and sensitive, a giving, loving Christian who can place others needs before his/her own without losing his/her personal identity.
