I’m so thankful that you decided to join me for this 31 Day series of Praying the Scriptures for Your Family! What a blessing YOUR FAMILY will receive through your prayers! The peace we gain through prayer {Philippians 4:6-7} is blessing enough, but in praying the very Words of God over your family, the blessings gained are more than we will ever know about on this side of heaven!
As you start this journey of praying the Scriptures, I hope you will take a few minutes (less than 10) to listen to this audio encouragement where I share 5 Ways to Pray the Scriptures.

Today’s Scripture To Pray For Your Family
Ruth 1:16-17: “Ruth said, ‘Entreat me not to leave you, or to turn back from following after you; for wherever you go, I will go; and wherever you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God, my God. Where you die, I will die, and there will I be buried. The Lord do so to me, and more also, if anything but death parts you and me.”
Prayer: Father God, the words of Ruth are the cry of my heart for our family, for my marriage. You have brought us together, may nothing tear us apart. May my husband and children know that where they go – both physically, emotionally or spiritually, I am right there with them. Nothing they can do will stop me from loving them. Help me to love more like You love, Father. Help us to love each other with an unconditional love. May my children be secure in my love for my husband, his love for me, and our love for them. Strengthen the love you have given my husband and me. Help us to be proactive and intentional about spending time together and putting our marriage first. Teach us to love like You do.
