Marriage Challenge – 31 Days of Prayer (Introduction)
My Challenge to You
What does prayer look like in the life of a wife who desires to bring life to her marriage?
Could this be a picture of me praying by the kitchen sink while I’m washing my dishes? It could be. And yes–the Lord assures me that my eyes might be open as I take in the view from the back yard. I see the trees that my husband and I planted together, and I praise God for his gift of a husband.
Could this be a picture of me praising the Lord as I snuggle in close to my husband at night? What about that quiet moment in the afternoon when I’m folding his laundry?
Home is the tapestry I weave day in and day out, and prayer is the loom upon which I place my thread. Every prayer is a gift of love I stitch into their lives.
Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. – 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (KJV)
Marriage is giving of yourself tirelessly down paths you’d never imagine to travel. Through sickness and pain, poverty and loss, it’s carrying the weight of another. It’s being the smile they see in the morning, and the body they hold close at night. It’s pure love. It’s standing together in the face of adversity. It’s riding alongside each other in a battle that threatens to tear down your marriage and seeks to grab hold of your faith. It’s strength under pressure.
I challenge you as I challenge myself to draw closer to God by equipping ourselves with the gospel, taking time out for prayer, and walking according to His will–not ours. I pray that we will hunger for more than a lukewarm marriage and half-hearted faith, by pursuing God with all of hearts.

Committed to praying, but have to admit I am having a hard time because I feel my marriage is over. Maybe this is God telling me it’s not…

After 28 yrs. of marriage, my husband has received a devastating diagnosis of a severe, incurable,
progressive brain disease.
This prayer challenge is right up my alley and in perfect timing. Thank you!

Peggy
Just got your book today (to review)! But I’m in … saw your book and read what you shared over at GMG so I knew this was perfect for me. Thank you Darlene for being so transparent and willing to show us how to better pray for our marriages and spouses! Looking forward to both the challenge and your book ! I know God directed me here, now, for me and my estranged marriage to find hope. My marriage was a mess, (I was a mess and I totally messed up my marriage similarly) and I walked away from the mess back in ’96 but the mess is still waiting for God’s redemptive work for I am still married to my unbeliever and know God loves him and is waiting on us to let God fix us. Love what I have already read in your book and the first prayer! Thank you so much … I’m blessed by your ministry.
Peggy
(oh and I’m not online as much either but I will capture each day and be praying along!)
Darlene Schacht
Amen. Love your heart Peggy.

Thank you so much for the challenge to commit to praying for marriages, your time, your honesty, and willingness to be so open-it’s allowing me to see what’s right instead of what’s wrong-so easy to do after spending 10+ years with someone!

Marriage can be hard and just knowing that there’s a community of like minded people committed and intentionally focused on getting through to the other side makes me so hopeful!!!

Darlene,
I am definitely going to take this challenge! I need this desperately… I am unequally yoked and my hubby is struggling with alcoholism. I believe that God has a plan for all that we have gone through, and I am holding on for the ride! Praying that He will work a miracle on my hubby’s heart as well as mine and that He will help me to be an example of Christ’s love in these heartbreaking trials. Thank you for all you do! I love reading you messages in my email!!!
In Christ’s Love,
Christina

Lisa Routley
Thank you so much! I will be doing the prayer challenge. I have been under major attack by the enemy who tries to tell me I’m terrible at being a wife and I’m worthless. I’m infertile, so he uses that the most in trying to convince me I’m unworthy, among many other things. He wants to destroy my marriage. I’m hanging on to the Lord with all I have. This came to me at just the right time. God is GOOD. Please pray for my husband and I. God bless you and all the wives!
Darlene Schacht
You are created by an almighty God Who formed you with intent. I pray that you will be reminded of that day in and day out as you seek to serve God and strengthen your marriage.

Committed to pray!! Hope my book arrives by middle- end of next week:) my husband is a pastor and just resigned from the church he had been at for 7 years it has been a hard and long month( especially on our children as this was the only church our youngest really knew) I have ?? My husbands decision several times although I know I shouldn’t have. I pray for strength to stand by him although I don’t understand He said if he had stayed he wouldn’t be in Gods will and I know and believe that’s where we need to be even though it’s a sad hurting valley right now. So I commit to pray and to be the support he needs us to be during this season. Thanks for all your encouragement!! Looking forward to the book and what The Lord will reveal to me thru it
Darlene Schacht
I’m glad you are joining us. I pray that you will be equipped with strength and wisdom during this time.

Committed to pray over my husband. Without him I would be lost and I thank God everyday for giving him to me. Truly my best friend!
Julie D
During our 15 years of marriage, we have always had a good marriage. Never any major issues. Until this summer. After constant prayer, I left corporate America to be home with my children. To compensate financially, my husband began working 80 hours per week. He is tired, stressed, and idols are now appearing in his life that are affecting our marriage in negative ways. This prayer challenge seems fitting for me, and I am looking forward to covering my marriage in prayer.
Darlene Schacht
I’m glad you are joining us.

Having just been up with my father in law all night, caring for him, I will need this so much. My guy lost his Mom and brother almost 50 years ago, he is now losing his Dad to liver cancer. We only have a few days maybe hours. I love my husband so much and I know how much he and our four kids will need many prayers. With the up coming decisions, plans and fatigue to follow, I don’t want to falter in my prayers. I won’t be alone now. Sending praises for this plan, thank you so much.
Darlene Schacht

1 John 5;14-15
“Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.”
These are some of my favorite prayer scriptures, that I prayed with, during the period of 7 years and 7 months waiting on God to grant me a permanent resident status (a green card) . Praise God, He answered my prayer!
Darlene Schacht

This came at a critical time for us. At 62 my husband is out looking for a job after a career in one place and the company has how gone bankrupt. He needs my prayers more than usual while he fights the battle of finding a way to support us when we aren’t quite ready to retire. I will look forward to the tools to focus my prayers for him during the next 31 days. Thank you!

Elani McEldowney
I’m committed to praying. I also want to buy your book. These blogs have been such an inspiration to me in my journey as a wife. I have only been married for 9 months, October will be the 10th, and I have been searching and reading about how to become a better wife and encourage my husband in his walk with God. He doesn’t have close christian friends like I do so its much harder for him. Over the last few months I have seen glimpses of the man God wants him to be, and I am so excited about praying!
Thank you for your caring heart!
Darlene Schacht
I pray that God will bring fellowship to his life. Thank you for joining us!

Darlene Schacht

Maggie
I have a 7 y/o high energy step daughter and an almost 6 week old son who required a 28hr labor and emergency open heart surgery at just 10hrs old. My husband and I have been in a whirlwind ever since. Our son will need another surgery by 6 months which causes much tension as we vividly remember the recovery and don’t want him to have to go through that again. Don’t want our family to have to go through that again.
But with all the sleepless nights, poopy diapers, first grade homework (and friend drama), at times I feel in over my head and struggle to connect with my husband.
There is no better time than now to be praying for him and our marriage.
Darlene Schacht
I just prayed for you Maggie. As I was praying I was warmly reminded that this is merely one of many seasons in your life. I prayed for strength a that God’s peace would wash over your family.
Roxana

Committed to prayer! I need this do bad right now. My husband and I are approaching our 1 year and the enemyis trying his best for us not to make it. We’ve had some bumps alongthe way and my husband had given up that our marriage won’t work.We are both still in love which gives me hope even when he says it won’t work. I pray that this will help since no papers have been filled and we still talk on a daily basis with saying I love you before ending our conversation.
Darlene Schacht
I’m so sorry to hear this Megan. I pray that this challenge would strengthen your marriage.

commited!!! perfect timing for this in my life! uprooted our family of 7, to finally walk full time in ministry, a dream of my husbands, and we have come to realize how much marriage is important. we married as best friends and slowly thru the past 16 years, we’ve acquired the back seat to our 5 boys, ministry and work…so yes, this is definitely the jump start i need to getting things back!!! thank you!

Angela
While my marriage isn’t a complete mess, I know that there are areas where I need to grow as a daughter of the King that I might find my joy and peace in Him and be in a place to reflect that to my unbelieving spouse and to the world. Today is the first day of our 31st year, and my desire is to continue to grow in Yahweh’s grace. What better way to do so than to start this year bathing our marriage in prayer.
Darlene Schacht
Amen!!

My husband and I are going through some very difficult trials. His alcoholism, issues with my step kids, and his threats to leave every time we disagree.
He’s going for residential treatment tomorrow, and I’m watching the kids. After he’s home, we’ll see how our marriage issues go.
I’m committed to praying for him, even when I’m angry, hurt, disappointed, sad, lonely. It’s VERY hard. Harder than losing my first husband in a car accident.

I’ve been praying for my marriage since I was a young girl (5 or 6). Now after being married for 2 years we have hit a really rough patch so this is perfect timing. I need this so I don’t give up praying even when it feels like God isn’t listening. Because no matter how I FEEL God is always listening and always in control of every situation.

49 years and we continue to grow in our relationship. We ask ourselves, “How can this possibly keep getting better?!?” And yet it does!! God is so faithful. When we surrendered our individual lives to Him and then our marriage (after 15 yrs of trying to do it without Him), EVERYTHING changed. Prayer changes lives and marriages! Your message is SO needed. You’re touching lives for eternity. I’m looking forward to this prayer adventure with so many wonderful young women who are seeking to follow God’s perfect plan for marriage. Having tried our marriage without Him and then with Him and following His ways, I want to encourage every woman to surrender to God’s ways and you’ll be amazed at what happens.
Darlene Schacht
Dorothy, I love your comment. Thank you for sharing that!!
Stephanie
Thank you for the encouragement.

I am committed to Praying … I am struggling with bitterness and personal insecurities of myself ( weight and possible unfaithfulness on his part) and marriage. And I know my attitude is not helping. II have packed my bags 2xs in the past couple of months. 30 years of marriage.. I NEED this challenge. I cant be the wife I know God wants me to me. MY flesh gets the best of me.
Just broken….
Darlene Schacht
Suzi, I’m so sorry to read this. I pray that there will be a revival both in your spirit and your marriage. Be reminded that this too shall pass. There is joy for each and every one of us. Keep pressing toward that goal, turning your eyes off of this world including your body, and turning them onto Christ. He sees you perfectly.
And I pray that your husband is faithful to you. With all of my heart I ask that God intervene in your lives.

The devil tried to steal my marriage on 9-11-14. My husband’s had an affair. Satan is a liar and he can’t have anything that God had given me. I know we will survive and I’m glad there is resources available for us to use to heal our marriage.

In the past month or two, my husband and I were very emotionally deteriorating…. what with a new job, long hours and new friends, my husband changed hiis entire self in a matter of weeks. He asked me if we could “seperate” (not legally – more emotionally) and waited, and prayed. I prayed for 6 long weeks morning, noon, night and just about every time in between. I prayed for his heart, One night, I earned his heart… he held me close, and wouldn’t let me go, he said this will probably be last last time I ever hold the love of my life like this again. He cried. Then I was hit with the worst of the worse…. ” I got drunk, she got pregnant.” And my Lord so sweetly came down to the bed and handled the situation for me. I didn’t feel angry or discusted but my first response was “what do WE do?” Through the Lord’s strength I have completely forgiven my husband and am committed to being the wife God has called me to be. I know my love is unconditional. He’s learned a piece of God’s love through me. My husband, the great man that he is, was called to pastor at a young age, and he’s running, but with prayer I know every problem will be solved, every hurt will be healed and my marriage will prevail. and I believew that my husband will get back to a place where God wants him. That is why I am committed to prayer, not just for 31 days, but for life.
Darlene Schacht

Committed to pray – the best thing you can do for your spouse, to pray for God’s protection, and for God to be at work in his life every day. It’s not about me, it’s not about us, it’s all about God and how we can glorify Him through serving each other in love.

Jamie
Greetings from Canada! This challenge is coming at a great time of year for me.
As the daylight hours get shorter here, this is usually the time of year when I get the most self-absorbed and tend to forget or bypass the needs of my husband. Winter up here is usually 8months of the year and for about 6 of those months the sun comes up about 3-4 hours after I have gotten up (0500h) and usually starts setting about 1700h, so basically less than 8 hours of my day is during sunlight.
This challenge is right up my alley and will help me to focus more on my hubby and others before myself.
Blessings
Lisa Rawlins
I’m in!
Jessica

Me too. We’ve had over 1500 women sign up and one man. I’m excited for October to come!
autumn
I’m committed to this prayer challenge.
My husband and I have been married for 1.5 years. Everyone always assumes our marriage is amazing since we are still newlyweds.
But we’ve had a rough start to our marriage. We have experienced 2 miscarriages. And a couple months ago my husband was having an affair
autumn
(I hit post before I was done typing)
As soon as his affair became physical my husband wanted a divorce.
Before I learned that he was having an affair I asked him to wait a month before leaving. We were in the last few days of the month and then I learned of his affair. A few days later he decided he no longer wanted a divorce.
It has been difficult for us. I am trying to follow God through all this but my husband has lost all hope in God. Ready for this challenge and hoping it brings life to our marriage and helps me be a better wife.
Darlene Schacht
I’m so sorry to read this Autumn. I pray that your marriage will be restored!

I’m so sorry to read this.

Tosha
Thank you for telling your story. My story is very similar and I felt so alone, but I stumbled upon your book from looking for activities for my special education class and then found your blog as well. This blog is so timely. I have been struggling for awhile on finding reasons to stay in my marriage although we have been in counseling for over a year. I am a believing wife of 24 years next week and have counseled numerous other wives on staying in their marriage. I still find it hard to take my own advice. I too was confronted and confessed to an emotional affair last summer, if that’s what you can call it. Either way it was wrong. We separated, but he seemed to understand that I was very broken due to infidelity on his part throughout our marriage. He forgave me and I forgave him and we were back together within 3 months. I still have not felt the same since as if I haven’t forgiven him or myself. I want to honor my commitment to my husband and family and learn to love him wholeheartedly again. God is so good! He knows what you need even before you need it. Thanks for sharing your heart and I accept the challenge!
Darlene Schacht
I’m glad that you found your way here. There is so much healing to take place, but God is good! He offers hope where all hope is otherwise lost. I pray that you will take this challenge with us. 31 days of prayer. Just one more way to let go and let God.
Jennifer
As we are expecting our first child, a daughter, in the next 10 weeks I am committed to praying for my husband and for the wonderful daddy that I can already see he is going to be. I haven’t purchased the book yet but have it on my list to pick up!

Darlene Schacht
Awesome!
Diana
As I read through the preceding comments, I was again struck with the fact and knowledge that satan is attacking marriages to undermine God’s good work. Satan does not plague those who are already in line with him, only those who are striving to be closer to God and do works in God’s honor. I thank you for your blog, blessings to you for providing such an uplifting and concrete method to help our marriages.
I commit to praying each day for my husband and marriage. I also commit to praying for protection for you, your family and leadership. I also commit to saying a prayer asking for God’s blessing on all the women who are taking this pledge. May we all learn to see the blessings of God.
Darlene Schacht
Thank you. THANK YOU! So much.

I love that thought, “A concert of praise and intercession.” Nice!
Sara
I am not yet married and it is my desire to get married soon. I will be committed to this cause for the whole month of October and onward. Praying for my own husband and my parents and other marriages of people in my life. I hope I will do this with my friends/prayer group. For long I have wished there is a similar group of unmarried people with such wise wisdom but I have realized no one wishes to be unmarried for long but we all want to be wives and mums for the rest of our lives, and it is best to prepare for what lasts a life time! I have stopped feeling left out when I visit this page 🙂 God bless you Darlene for the great work!
Darlene Schacht
I’m glad you’re here Sara. Thanks for joining us.
Imani

Elnoz
Having been convicted of not praying faithfully for my husband in our past almost three years of marriage, I can think of no better way to spend the month leading up to our 3rd anniversary than praying for him. I’ve just found your resources and look forward to becoming the more Godly wife my husband deserves. Thank you for all I’m sure I am going to learn from you. Blessings, Kelly.
Darlene Schacht
I’m glad you found your way here Elnoz.

KLMac
I am committed to doing this prayer challenge. My husband and I have had a very rocky marriage from the start, even with great Christian counseling and the wise counsel of close friends. This will be a great way to move into the holiday season that tends to be more difficult that the rest of the year.
Darlene Schacht
Absolutely. An awesome way to move forward.
Colleen Schrader
After 20 years of marriage to a good, but unbelieving man I’m going to try this. Maybe 31 days of concentrated prayer will soften his heart in a way that my often sporadic prayers for him haven’t done.
Darlene Schacht
Glad you are joining us! Woohoo!
Elle
Committed to praying!
Shelby

I am looking forward to praying along with my fellow sisters in Christ. Praying daily for our marriages and making it a priority.
Laura
I really need this and feel that it is God’s timing. Our marriage is just plain awful. We simply coexist and are tired of trying. Only 3 things keep us from splitting up: God, our ages and money. That is it. My son, who is 12 went to my husband to say that he is stressed over our situation. My husband replied that he need not worry or stress but he does need to accept that this is just the way it is. Pretty sad actually. Doesn’t exactly give our kids a lot of comfort or hope. So, thank you. I think well thought out, directed pray will be good for me because I simply dont know what to pray for anymore.
Darlene Schacht
Laura, I’m so sorry to read this. I pray that there will be a revival in your marriage.
Sandra

Wow! I read a few of the comments as I scrolled down to find this box to put in my own comment to pray. I am so impressed by the number of women who are saying they are engaged and want to join in with this and commit to praying for their marriages before they are married. What an awesome thing to do!! I have already been doing this due to a book I have read called The Power Of A Praying Wife, But am recommitting myself to do this with you. Your blogs and books are always such an inspiration to me.
Darlene Schacht
I’m so blessed by those single women too! I wish I would have been that wise when I was engaged. Thank you for joining us Sherri!

Ami Atkins
Hi. I’m committed to praying. My name is Ami, and I’m 31. My husband died about a year and a half ago. God has carried me with tangible grace. We had a beautiful marriage, and some have said that we packed 50 years into 2 1/2. Jon was so committed to the gospel and Christ. He was one of the most passionate people I’ve ever met. He was committed to leading our home and shepherding me. He adored me, but adored Jesus more. Because I’ve known deep love, and a marriage centered on Christ, I want to commit to praying for my friends’ marriages. And, in faith I’ll pray for a second beautiful marriage. Thanks for creating this challenge!
Darlene Schacht
Wow. WOW!! Ami, your story touches my heart. Thank you for sharing. And a big thank you for keeping your friends in prayer.
Juliet

Linda
I’m committed to praying. We’ve been married for 28 years and there have been ups and downs but we still love each other. We have fought together for the past 7 years for our older daughter in her battle with a vicious eating disorder, cared for and pushed for answers for our younger daughter in her now 4 year battle with dysautonomia, and walked through medical crisis after medical crisis until the end with my husbands parents. The past 10 years have been focused on others, and while I am thrilled we have not let those stresses pull us apart, I am sad that we haven’t really been able to nor have found time to focus on US. I want us to nourish each other again–to get back to a place of us-ness that has been replaced with praying for and fighting for everyone else.
Darlene Schacht
Wow, you’ve been through so many trials. I’m sorry to read this Linda. I pray that God will bring healing to your family and give you and opportunity to have the much needed “us” time you desire.
Polly Dancer
Prayer changes things! Im committed and looking forward to this challenge!

Stacy

Nicole
Committed to praying.
Traci
I am committing to praying, and will order your book today. I have a question, don’t know if it’s appropriate to ask here, and if not, I apologize. Do you think this would be appropriate for a wife whose husband is not a believer?
Darlene Schacht
Absolutely without a doubt yes. The best thing we can do to draw a husband to Christ is to a) pray for his salvation b) win him over to Christ with our behavior. Both of these will be stressed throughout the challenge.

Savannah
I’m in!! My husband is a non-believer and doesn’t attend church with me. I already pray for his salvation everyday but I know there are so many other ways I could be praying for him and our marriage. This may be what I have been needing!
Darlene Schacht
Oh, I’m so glad you’re joining us Savannah!
Carrie
My husband is in his first year of med school, and to say this past year (and last few months) has been tough is an understatement. I find ourselves the only ones in this boat, and he is exhausted with school, finals, patient contacts, studying late into the night/morning, and I am exhausted taking care of our three little kids, house, bills, making ends meet, and not getting good quality time together like I want…… Etc. This is so timely and I am in for sure! Probably more for myself than even him, but that’s more of the point sometimes isn’t it?! 🙁
Thank you Darlene and team for all of this and all of you do period!!! 🙂 So hoping I can get your book soon!
Darlene Schacht
My husband owns his own business. I devote a chapter in my new book to discussing this very thing. He worked so many hours and when he was home with us he was exhausted. I was taking care of little kids. That season of our life was so hard. He’d often say, “if I was a doctor, this is what it would be like.” Now I see what he means.
I pray that God will give you strength and joy during this time of your life.
Julie

I am committed to praying. I’ve gotta do something. Shambles…that’s the word that describes it.
Darlene Schacht
Oh no. Sorry to hear that Jenn. I’m glad you are joining us.
Karen
For the 2nd time in a year, my husband has said he wants a divorce. A year ago he committed to staying, and now I don’t know what’s happened. I feel physically broken. Hoping and praying that this helps.
Darlene Schacht
I’m so sorry Karen. You’re not alone. So many broken hearts and marriages. We need to pray for revival. I pray that God brings restoration to your marriage.
Tressa
I am committed to praying. My husband asked for a divorce this summer, after only one year of marriage. It was an awful year for us, but I never expected divorce. We are both Christians, but he feels he is following God by making this decision and says we have made a mistake. I know I did not do things right this first year. I was not the wife I should have been. But I am learning so much and I am still committed to my husband and our marriage and I will pray for him every day. I already bought your book without knowing of this challenge, but I will be praying along with you as I grow deeper in my faith and pray for the restoration of my marriage. Please pray for us if you can. I know this isn’t what God wants, but my husband has hardened his heart and put up his walls. Please pray God can get through to him before it’s too late. Our divorce is scheduled for this December, if not sooner. Thank you so much!
Darlene Schacht
Tressa, I just finished praying for your marriage. My hope is that there is full restoration for you both.
Tressa
Thank you so much!

Can’t wait to get your book and read if… Just not sure when that will be… :/
God Bless You!
Darlene Schacht
A lot of participants are joining without the book. That is totally fine! 1st priority – pray throughout the challenge. 😀

Pray for 31 days and check into the blog Monday to Friday for inspiration. 😀
Emily @EncouragedOverCoffee

I’m really looking forward to this. I am still trying to get my husband to pray with me, but that has been a big difference between the two of us. His prayer is in his music for the church. I go and support him on Sunday’s especially since our 10-year old daughter cantors with him.
Ironically he has agreed to go to a “marriage” talk on 10/1(start of the prayer challenge) which is sponsored by our local Christian radio channel. Maybe my prayers are starting to be heard. Thank you so much for offering this. You have made such a big difference in my life and marriage this year!!
