Can We Live Without Prayer? | How to Pray for Your Marriage (6 of 8)

Can we live without prayer? In part six of their Lord's Prayer series, Aaron and Jennifer Smith focus on Matthew 6:11, 'give us this day our daily bread.' Just as our bodies need food every day, our souls need daily nourishment from Jesus, the bread of life (John 6:35). They describe how going without God's Word and prayer leaves believers spiritually starved, irritable and self-focused, and how that breeds strife in marriage when spouses look to each other instead of God to be filled. Their answer to the title question: you can live without prayer, but you cannot thrive. They encourage couples to make Bible reading and prayer non-negotiable daily habits, to pray while reading Scripture, to petition God for their marriage, and to intercede for others.
