Couples Who Pray Together


Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven.
Matt 18:19

Yesterday a couple from our church met to pray at a regular city square, right after lunch time, a regular Wednesday... They met in central Stockholm in front of a building that SOS Church is looking to buy... I really wasn't supposed to be there, or maybe it was supposed to be that way, not quite sure yet :). This couple had planned to meet, in between work, picking up kids at the daycare and running a thousand errends to pray together and lay hands on a specific building for the church. It was beautiful. Holy. Romantic. Everything at once... A secret meeting, two spouses, practical and wild faith in everyday life, well planned just so they would have time to pray... I was so touched. Really overwhelmed. I had the priviledge, as their pastor, to spontaneously share this moment with them, and Jesus was so present...


Couples who pray together, stay together. Couples who pray together continue to be in love with one another. Couples who pray together have the joy of sharing answers to those prayers. Couples who meet for secret moments of prayer, right in the midst of everyday life, are happy couples. Kids of couples who pray together are secure, peaceful and happy!

Thank You Jesus for SOS Church Stockholm! Thank You for our wild and expansive future! Thank You for all the surprises You have planned and hidden along our the path of our lives!

See ya!
