Prayer for your husband



For those of you who are married, dating, or even waiting on the future spouse God has promised you, here is a prayer I found that would help you pray in specific ways for him, from head to toe.
Men, you can modify for your wife also.
Maybe you can use it to pray over someone that you are already dating to see if he lines up with what God wants for you.

Lysa TerKuerst also wrote a blog with some great advice. Here is the link: http://lysaterkeurst.com/category/made-to-crave/

It was written in regards to teaching teenage daughters, but you can use it to see if you are on the right track with whom you are thinking about committing your life to.



Lord, I pray for my husband, from head to toe:
                His Head –That he will look to You as Lord of his life. (1 Corinthians 11:13)

                His Mind - That he will have the mind of Christ and think as the Holy Spirit would lead him and not the flesh. (1 Corinthians 2:16)

                His Eyes –That You will keep his eyes from temptation and that he will turn his eyes from sin. (Matthew 6:13, Mark 9:47)

                His Ears - That he will hear Your still small voice instructing him. (1 Kings 19:12, Psalm 32:8)

                His Mouth – That his words will be pleasing to You. (Psalm 19:14)

                His Neck –That he will humble himself before You and be strong, courageous, and careful to do everything written in Your Word so that he will be prosperous and successful. (James 4:10, Joshua 1:8-9)

                His Heart-That he will love and trust You with his whole heart. (Deuteronomy 6:5, Proverbs 3:5)

                His Arms-That You will be his strength. (Psalm 73:26)


                His Hands-That he will enjoy the work of his hands and see it as a gift from You. (Ecclesiastes 3:13, 5:19)

                His feet – That You will order his steps and that he will walk in Your truth. (Proverbs 4:25, Psalm 26:3)
