This section is one of several pages showing the text used for Jim and Nila's Filipino wedding and features the Benediction.

Benediction

The final blessing of the couple and the congregation may be a benediction found in the Scriptures (for example Num. 6:24-26), a personalised version written by the pastor, or a combination of the two. Here is the closing prayer for James and Nila's wedding:

Pastor:

May we all please bow our heads in prayer.

Dear God in Heaven, may today be all that you need it to be today. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight and conquer all your fears. May God manifest Himself today in ways that you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer and your prayers be answered.

I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged and I pray that you step into your destiny within the ministry. I pray for peace, health, happiness and true and undying love for God.

I pray this in the Name of God the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

Amen.
