Are you struggling to pray for your husband?
Maybe you don’t feel like you know how to prayer for your husband. I experienced a season that was so hard that I couldn’t find the words to pray for Bill. Below are 11 different verses that I’ve put in the form of a prayer to pray over him when I couldn’t find the words to pray. What inspired this collection was one of statements God gave to me in the season I was fighting for our marriage. God said,
“You have permission to love him from his head to his toes.”
I wanted to love him but my hurt told me otherwise. I had only been saved for a few months and wasn’t as versed in the Bible as I am today. However, I decided to push through my emotions and wondered if there are verses that speak to each area of the husband’s body? As a matter of fact, the answer I found was a resounding YES! The following are the first collection of Scripture prayers I put together to help me pray over Bill in that season. I’m so glad I prayed these prayers because every one of them has come to pass in his life and our marriage.
What’s holding you back from praying for your hsuband?
If your’re struggling to pray I understand where you are. Don’t let pride, hurt, bitterness, anger, or any other emtion to keep you bound. What ever it is it doesn’t have the same value your husband has or should have in your heart. If you are struggling to pray you can turn it around. Why not start today. In other words, why not start now!
