Pray for marriages challenged by unexpected circumstances caused by COVID-19: illness, finances, children, parents, uncertainty, loss, but also opportunity.

Lord, we pray for marriage today... ALL marriages. During this time of Social Distancing and Stay at Home orders, marriages are facing multiple distractions. This “new normal” came quickly and without warning. There is not much that can be done, but find ways to address the immediate circumstances and where possible, determine some near-future opportunities.

As we pray, let us: ask, seek, and find.

We ask for each spouse to have a spirit of openness and willingness to work together to find appropriate next steps and have wisdom and clarity in using wisely the resources they have. Give marriages a spirit of togetherness... thinking ‘we’ rather than ‘me.’

We seek for each spouse an understanding of how YOU can use this experience to make us more loving and strong with an attitude of thoughtfulness and prayerfulness rather than panic.

Father, help each spouse find a purpose for staying in the struggle, allowing the community around them to provide spiritual encouragement through another person, couple, or family who can offer support during this difficult time.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. - Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV)

Pray for the Devenneys in Ivory Coast (West Africa).

Our Father, God and Comforter.  Be with us as we yearn to love and serve in Abengourou, Ivory Coast. Be with our family in Christ there, Pastor Wisdom and the clinic. Allow the clinic to continue to get the necessary medical supplies even with borders closed. Enable the body of Christ in Abengourou to provide food for their neighbors along with the bread of life that lives within them. We ask for protection and your Providence to flow through our teammates, Ian and Kristen Isely, who remain there now. Thank you for this unexpected time back in the US; allow us to find peace and direction in the immediate future as we continue to abide in your sovereignty.

Pray with us!

Our world, community and church is in desperate need of prayer in this crisis. Thank you for praying for the many needs around us at this time. Prayer is important, and you are invited to join us in a live prayer experience on Zoom,  weekdays at noon . A link to the live prayer experience will be posted daily on the blog. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7
