Week 2 // Rebuild Our Hopes // Psalm 34
Hope For Marriages
“Let us exalt his name together.”
Marriage is designed by God to help two people serve Him together. Today we begin praying over marriages around you! God is the redeemer of all things. Pray for unity, integrity, humility, protection, and fruitfulness in marriages. You can even reach out to those that you prayed for, and let them know you prayed for God’s blessing on their togetherness!
How Do I Pray?

The Bible shows us that prayer will often include our thanksgiving, repentance, adoration, and requests. The following acronym using the word PRAY has given helpful direction to many people:
Praise: God first deserves our worship and thanks. We take joy in who He is, what He has done, and what He has promised to do.
Repent: We give time for God to search our hearts, careful to turn away from anything that might get in the way of a right relationship with Him.
Ask: Mindful of what we understand to be God’s will, we bring our requests to God, trusting that He is able to meet any need.
Yield: We remember that God is wiser than us, and so we submit our desires and requests to him and trust Him no matter what.
Philippians 4:6-7 “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God's peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”
