The bible says not to give the devil a foot hold. The bible also says woman are the weaker vessel. I believe most strong marriages of spiritually strong husbands. I was going to bible study, reading the bible day and night, going to very church service I could. But I was still proud not to see and obey Gods Word that men are the head of the woman. I look back now and realize some
how my husband was actually more spiritually strong against a lot more temptations and bad ways of thinking than I was. I share this because I didn't start changing till he started praying for me. And since he was praying for me he was humbling himself before God and changing than I began to change. I don't think his prayers were hindered anymore.
7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
