Marriage, entwined with love, trust, and divine purpose, is a covenant before God. It’s more than just two people joining forces. When those hallowed foundations begin to crack, we often feel helpless, confused, and brokenhearted. However, even the most resilient marriages may experience traumatic storms, such as financial hardship, emotional distance, miscommunication, betrayal, or even divorce. That’s where prayer, grounded in scripture, becomes our greatest weapon and healing balm.
