For your marriage to remain strong and successful, you have to keep God at the center of it. As a wife, it’s your responsibility to ask God to protect every member of your family, especially your husband, who is the leader of your family. So, how do you pray for your husband? This article gives you the 15 most powerful daily prayers for your husband.
What Does the Bible Say About Praying for Your Husband?
Praying for your husband every day is an effective way to ensure that he finds favor in everything he does and wherever he goes. It also helps to strengthen the bond between you and your husband. Even the Bible encourages you as the wife to always pray for your husband, especially when you feel like he is not the best husband.
For example, Psalm 37:4 says, “delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart.” This means that if you want your husband to love you more and be a responsible man, you have to make your desires known to the Lord. The Bible also says that you will never be disappointed when you commit everything, including your husband to the Lord.
For instance, Proverbs 16:3 says, “commit your works to the Lord, and your plans will be established.” You just need to let God know what you want for and from your husband and He will make your desires come to fulfillment. The Bible also encourages you to pray against temptations that might ruin your marriage.
For example, you have to ask the Holy Spirit to guide your husband throughout the day, and help him to only focus on the right things and whatever is noble, pure, admirable, praiseworthy, and true. This word of advice can be found in Philippians 4:8-9, which says,
“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from [Paul], or seen in me — put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.”
The Bible also encourages you to pray for other people, including your husband. Your prayers for other people please God, who wants everyone to be saved. This can be found in 1 Timothy 2:1, 4, which says, “I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people… This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand this truth.”
Also, you will find God’s promise to answer all your prayers in 1 John 5:14-15. It says, “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we asked of him.”
So, if you humbly approach God with prayers on behalf of your husband, you can rest assured that He will answer you. But you have to ensure that the prayers you say for your husband are correct.
