4 Healing Prayers for Marriage Restoration

May 2, 2026 | Marriage

When you realize your marriage is in need of restoration, you can always turn to God. Asking God to heal the key aspects of your marriage like commitment, communication, connection, and intimacy, can refocus you on what really matters. The power of prayer can give you hope for a better marriage, and the courage to seek help.

“I came here feeling hopeless, broken-hearted, with no emotion,” said Scott, a participant in a Focus on the Family Hope Restored marriage intensive retreat. “I felt this was our last chance to heal our marriage. The presence of God in the room was truly felt. It was amazing to feel the love of God come back into our lives and those around us. I’m looking forward to returning home a changed man, loving and caring for myself and my wife. I am departing with my most heartfelt emotion — I love my wife.”

This is just one true story of a restored marriage — you’ll find many more at Hope Restored. Why? Because God is a God who restores. The Bible is filled with stories of restoration. It’s also the story of restoration, of God bringing His children back into relationship with himself (2 Corinthians 5:18-20).

God says, “I will restore them because of My compassion” (Zechariah 10:6) and “I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten” (Joel 2:25).
