Pray for your husband!
If we don’t pray for our husband, who will? What does a day of prayers for my husband look like?
First, I thank God for my husband.
If your marriage is in a rough place, you can always find something good in your husband no matter the condition of your marriage. You never would have married him, if there were nothing good to be thankful for.
Second, I pray for his spiritual well being.
If my husband has a good relationship with Jesus, I am going to reap the benefits of that. Our marriage will be stronger and on a good path toward growth when our husbands are focused on growing their relationship with Jesus.
Third, I pray for his work and his job.
Men have a strong built in need to be the provider and to be the one who takes care of their family. Praying for God to establish and bless his work benefits him and the whole family.
Fourth, I pray for my husband and our relationship.
Proverbs 14:1 says, The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands. One of the ways that I choose to build my house is to pray for my husband and our relationship. If there is a specific issue that needs work on in our marriage, I pray about that.
Here is a prayer from my prayer journal that I pray for my husband. I am sharing it with you by setting it up where you can download and print out the prayer to put in your prayer journal or Bible to use when you pray for your husband. (Printable version is below.) Write in your husband’s name in the blanks except the second blank. In that blank, I have given you space to fill in what you are thankful for about your husband. Then use the prayer to pray for your husband.
