Three fold cord

Ec 4:12

It has been found that couples who pray together are more likely to stay together.

Every wonder what praying together does for them?

When a couple prays together, the Bible says Jesus is in the midst.  Add up all those present and you have three during the prayer time.  That provides 3 cords which makes a three fold cord, with the husband, the wife, and Jesus, each being one of those strands.  Ec 4:12 says “A cord of three strands is not easily broken”.  Praying together brings strength to the marriage with God’s help.

If you have not been praying with your spouse, why not start today.

Father, help us to pray with sour spouses and we invite you to join us when we do.  In Jesus Name, Amen. 

Is there other Scripture where we are taught who is present when two or more are gathered in His Name?_____________

Why would Christ say He will be present?_____________

If Christ is present when two of us pray—how might that affect us and encourage us?__________________
