Genesis 1-5
“And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh. And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.” Genesis 2:21-25
Dear God, I thank you with everything I am for my wife. Lord, as I have said before, never let me pass over a passage dealing with the marriage relationship and not thank You for her. Where would I be without such a perfect and wonderful spouse. Lord, above all, I pray that You would help me to remain ever faithful to her and her alone. Help me not be given over to such things as pastor preached yesterday that would cause me to behold strange women and my heart to utter perverse things. Lord, as it says in the model prayer, lead me not into temptation but deliver me from evil.
