Ladies, we have been given an incredible opportunity. We have been entrusted to care for our husband's heart, to love and support our spouse, and to speak truth into our husband's life to help and encourage him. And to bless him. One of the many ways we can love and support our spouse is to pray for them. Prayer changes lives. It changes hearts, words and actions. It changes marriages-the root of the family unit. When we pray for our spouse we are actively applying God's Word into our lives. For some of us, it can be hard to pray for our spouse, especially if we've been hurt. And for others, it's just a challenge to know where to begin and know how exactly to pray.
Some time ago, I came across a printable prayer sheet through a link on pinterest and thought I'd share it with you today. It came from the Organizing Made Fun blog, and here is the link to the original post where you can print the prayer guides (HERE). Not only does it give you a guide to pray for your husband separated by day, it also includes a prayer for yourself as a wife, yourself as a mother, and prayers for your children.
If you'd like to start praying for your husband, but you don't know where to start, I urge you to begin with day one. Print off the pages and get going. I ended up cutting the pages into the outlined cards and then laminated them. I keep them store in my Bible for quick access.
If you feel like things will never change in your marriage, I encourage you to start praying over those concerns and watch how God begins to move in your heart, your spouse's heart and in your marriage. God is so faithful. He will do a mighty work.
