Praying is important for any person, but it’s even more important for couples to pray together. Married couples find is useful to start their prayer at the beginning of the day.
There are many ways to pray together. You will need to find a way that works for you together and follow that every day. Do some research, contact family, or ask members of your church if you are unsure how to pray together. Here are some of the many ways you can pray together as a couple.
Safety
Start out praying for the safety of each other, your family, your friends, and anyone else that is important to you. You need to start somewhere and this is an easy one to do each day. We all need daily protection and guidance. A short prayer about safety will work such as the one below.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Please keep us safe when we are together and when we are apart. Keep our family safe in their travels throughout the day. Keep the angels around them at all times to protect them and make their way safe.
We thank you and praise you Lord Jesus that you will guide everyone in our lives to safety every day. We pray this in Jesus name.
Amen
If you are going to use the same prayer each day, write it down so you each remember it and you can say it together.
Finances
Finances are something that a couple must deal with each and every day. Praying together for debt reduction is something you could do together as well. This can be difficult at first, but it’s something you will find fulfillment in doing. Pray that God will lead you in the direction you should go, pray that you will always have enough money to pay your bills every month, and pray that you will have the strength to say no when you shouldn’t make a purchase. Here is a prayer you can use.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come to you today for the strength and courage to deal with our finances. We want to follow your direction and do what you want us to do. We pray that you show us the way to pay off our debt and not incur any more. We also pray that you give us the strength to pay cash for things that we need and want.
We praise you and thank you Lord Jesus that you will show us the way to go so we can live the life you have set up for us. We pray this in Jesus might name.
Amen
Safety and Finances are two important things a couple can pray about on a daily basis. Morning prayer time is also a great time for couple’s to discuss their own personal praises, and anything that may be bothering them, and then make the time to pray about these issues.
Praying together is a great way for Christian couples to establish a more deeper connection with the Lord, and each other!

Yes! Praying together is so important. Thank you for the reminder!
I believe a family should definitely pray together. I get my 3 sons involved by calling them my “prayer warriors”. We split our church prayer list into 3 parts. At breakfast, one boy prays for his 1/3 of the list, lunch the next boy prays and at supper my other son prays.
We can also pray at any time or any where….
For instance, we pray before entering a thrift store…that the Lord will lead us to find the things we need. (And “wants”)
Absolutely, Rhonda! Praying together is such a great way to connect with God, and each other as a family. Thanks for the great suggestions about when and how to pray!
