Praying For Your Husband

[Blessed2bless]

Bless Y'all.... Let's do it! I'm praying this for my son also (for his future wife).... he's 13!

[Shimmie]

My heart is still in prayer for each and every marriage and for those to be.

1 This is the written account of Adam's line.
When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God.

2 He created them male and female and blessed them. And when they were created, he called them "man. " Genesis 5:1-2

For whom God has joined together, let no man put assunder...

To the wife who wonders...fret not thyself over your husband's plans and where abouts.

God is with him, your husband wherever he goes.

I did this last year, and it works. In fact, I have continued to pray for him every since doing this and I must say, it made a difference in our marriage.

I looked up one day and some of the things we dealt with, he dealt with were a thing of the past. All I could do was thank God as I know after I asked him to not only come into, but stay in our marriage- I saw the difference.

Thanks for sharing & i hope some other women see the benefits in their marriages.

I love threads like this and I'm not even married - YET. Promise me you will continue to post threads like this after I get married.

Praying you ladies see the manifestation of all that you've prayed each day and much, much more!!

Bless you!

:wave: Hi Ladies:

Here's the entire outline. I added headings for each prayer to make it easier for you to identify the areas of prayer. This will also help you to refer back to the certain prayers and scriptures, later on as you need them.

You can share these prayers with your family , friends , loved ones. Pray as a group.

I'm praying with and for you and your marriages, current and those future. Unmarried Ladies, you WILL be married.

If you so choose. :love2: Pray for your future husbands, NOW. They're out there, so why not pray for them starting today. They need you and men are naturally drawn to the women who pray for them. Yes they are. :yep:

Praying for Your Husband

“She does him good….” Proverbs 31:12a

Bless your husband by praying for him!

The Apostle Paul instructed all Christians to pray for one another (Ephesians 6:18).

This includes wives’ responsibility and privilege to pray for their husbands. Earnest prayer for your husband is good for him, for you and the spiritual health of your home (Proverbs 31:11-12).

So what if your not married yet? Can you still do it? Even if your on a detour?

Indeed! Praying ahead of the moment is a wonderful safeguard. Less work after the two of you meet, marry and head for the honeymoon. :lol:

[Laela]

Not sure if anyone else here is doing this. I'd started later than I'd planned to, but I'm on Day 10 already. I couple the daily prayer with fasting because I think this will help tremendously. God has already been working on hubby in a very positive way and I'm so elated. He "participates" by getting the daily Bible verses by text or email from me.

Ladies, praying for your husband is a blessing in and of itself! :yep: I can attest to that. I'll update as I go along. I also had been given Daily Confessions for Husband by a minister at my church; but I'll hold off until this 30-day prayer is over.

If anyone wants a copy of the Daily Confessions, please let me know.

God bless!

[yodie]

I'm not married yet, but I'm praying a prayer out of "The Power of a Praying Wife" every night. Funny - I was drifting off late last night, but I had set my alarm clock to remind me to pray. I got myself up and got to praying.
