SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers, 

Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important. 

Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should.

Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages.  Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to actually get rid of these baggages begin.  And sadly, many times, we instead of fighting for our marriages, we rather start looking for the nearest door marked “Exit.” There’s a battle over marriages,the enemy would love nothing more than to destroy yours. 

Do not let him win!

Win by using the word of God!

Don't forget to ask yourselves,''Have we prayed?'' the next time you are busy arguing out your point in an argument or discussion. The word of God has that spiritual power to save in prayer. His love is pure, His Grace is sufficient.

That is why I would like to share with you that once I was at this point where I was fighting the wrong enemy, my husband. It was by the Grace of God that we happen to meet a couple, during a summer vacation; and the Lord used them to bring us to light! I remember the words of the man so well-''Stop fighting the wrong enemy! He's after your marriage''. 

Today I present to you that couple who taught me to pray about my marriage, they inspired me to fight for my marriage. Words are not enough to express my gratitude to/for them. They introduced me to 'couple prayers'. They have a story to tell which they will tell someday to inspire you too. For now, I want to wish them a happy anniversary on their marriage. I pray all good things come to them.

Happy anniversary Mr Isaac Xorla and Mrs Priscilla Takyiwaa Amaglo.

                                 so is my word that goes out from my mouth;

                                             It will not return to me empty

                                        but will accomplish what I desire

                                                       and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
