Scripture Reading
Matthew 6:19-21
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
Reflection
Jesus is not anti-wealth; he is pro-heart. His concern is about what we love, because what we love shapes who we become. Everything that rust and moths can take is temporary by definition. Lenten almsgiving is not just charity — it is a deliberate loosening of the grip that possessions can have on our affections, training the heart toward what lasts.
Prayer for Today
Father,
Please turn my husband's heart into flesh and return him to me. I pray for full restoration in our marriage and much better than before. I rebuke the enemy from his strongholds against my husband and the people that are encouraging our separation/divorce. I pray for peace in our home. I pray that my husband's love for me will be stronger than before. Please end his seek in wanting to live the single life again into wanting to be whole with his family. Bring peace into our marriage. Remove the anger, the bitterness, the frustration, and any other emotion that my husband may be feeling towards me.
Father, I know these emotions are of the enemy, so I rebuke them right now in the name of Jesus! I declare there be joy, peace, love and unity like never before in our marriage. These things I pray in the name of Jesus, I declare and decree them to be so in your name Father. Amen
