“Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers. May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe, a graceful deer-may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love. Why, my son, be intoxicated with another man’s wife? Why embrace the bosom of a wayward woman? For your ways are in full view of the LORD, and he examines all your paths.” Proverbs 5:15-21
Dear Heavenly Father, Help all married men to value the wives you have granted so that out of deep feelings of reverence and appreciation, we remain faithful and encouraging to them. Help them feel safe in their relationships with us and protect the sanctity of our marriages. Also, help us to find our voices with our children so we talk clearly and positively about the purity you designed for them as a blessing for generations to come.
Marriage is God’s thing that he created to become one of the biggest blessings in our lives. Hold is sacred and show it be the way you protect all marriages.
