I am persuaded that most marriage problems could be solved around an altar of prayer. Most of the time those experiencing marital problems have too much pride to admit their mistakes, and take responsibility for their own faults and actions. Many times feuding couples take their problems to marriage counselors who may be having problems of their own. Therefore the marriage ends in a bitter divorce with the children being the real losers. But I have found in my 35 years of ministry, that if I can get a couple to humble themselves and kneel around an altar of prayer, and earnestly seek God for an answer, He can and will restore their relationship.
Prayer changes things.
Prayer restores marriages. Through prayer God can pick up the broken pieces and put them back together again. He can heal the hurt and take away the pain. I must admit, there must be a willingness from both individuals before God can restore a broken relationship. But if there is a desire to repair the broken pieces, God is in the repairing business and He can make it like new again.
