Prayer For Communication In A Relationship

Dear Lord,

I pray for husbands and wives. So often the communication in marriage is a catalyst for arguments. I pray for better and more effective communication between spouses. May your Holy Spirit anoint each of us so that we respond to each other in love, grace, and kindness. May the tone of our voices represent the respect we have for each other. I also pray that our body language would be respectful and appropriate. So often we reveal our frustrations non-verbally and that also stirs negativity in the relationship. Help us to be patient, understanding and full of wisdom as we communicate with our spouses.

In Jesus' name, AMEN!


Lord, I feel like my partner and I have had a difficult time clearly communicating with one another lately. We are both lacking in our compassion and understanding towards each other.

I pray we would be better than this, and that You will open our hearts to You. Holy Spirit, please help us be better communicators with each other.

I pray that we would live with understanding for what the other person is going through, and that we are thoughtful in our words and actions. Amen.


Father help (your spouse's name) and I make an effort to understand the source of the breakdown in communication between the two of us. Help me to see where I may have gone wrong in hearing the information that (your spouse's name) discussed with me during our conversation.

During this time of understanding Father; may I not become arrogant and start ridiculing (your spouse's name) because of my lack of understanding. Though it would be easy to blame (your spouse's name) and consider myself to be right, may I seek direction from your Holy Spirit and not lean-to my understanding in determining what went wrong.

Father God help me to remember and reflect Colossians 3:12-14 as I consider the message that (your spouse's name) is relaying to me. I pray this in Jesus' name, amen.


Lord, I pray now for my marriage. Thank you God for my spouse. Thank you for your love for him/her, and for our marriage. Thank you that you are a champion of marriage and you want to see our marriage last. Lord, forgive me so often I put myself first, and push you and my spouse to the backburner. Help me prioritize our marriage. Help me fight for it when it's hard, and to enjoy it when it's going well. Help me encourage and support my spouse in all she/he has going on. Help me Lord! I know that without your guidance and support I would stumble and fall. Help us put you first, and strengthen our resolve to work through the hardest parts of marriage. In your name I pray, Amen.


Dear God, thank you for the relationship I have, although I always pray that it continues to grow! Thank you for working in our lives and leading us through transformation. I lift up my relationship to You and ask that You help us grow in the area of communication. I pray that we can talk to each other kindly and respond in love to each other. Amen.


Dear Lord,

Thank You for my husband. Thank You that we have endured so much together and that we are committed to each other. I pray for our communication to improve. Holy Spirit please help me to be honest, generous, and kind with my words. I desire transparency in our relationship where we can be open and yet not condemning. I hope that our skills of talking to each other get better and that we can experience intimacy through conversation. I pray also that my husband opens up, sharing with me his desires, dreams, and other parts of his heart. May You help us to talk to each other on a daily basis as well as being able to talk about You and Your will for our lives in Jesus name Amen!
