Pray For Your Husband



Lord, help me to be a good wife. I fully realize that I don’t

have what it takes to be one without Your help. Take my
selfishness, impatience, and irritability and turn them into
kindness, long-suffering, and the willingness to bear all things.
Take my old emotional habits, mind-sets, automatic reactions,
rude assumptions, and self-protective stance, and make me
patient, kind, good, faithful, gentle, and self-controlled. Take
the hardness of my heart and break down the walls with Your
battering ram of revelation. Give me a new heart and work in me
Your love, peace, and joy (Galatians 5:22-23). I am not able to
rise above who I am at this moment. Only You can transform
me.
Show me where there is sin in my heart, especially with
regard to my husband. I confess the times I’ve been unloving,
critical, angry, resentful, disrespectful, or unforgiving toward
him. Help me to put aside any hurt, anger, or disappointment I
feel and forgive him the way You do—totally and completely,
no looking back. Make me a tool of reconciliation, peace, and
healing in this marriage. Enable us to communicate well and
rescue us from the threshold of separation where the realities
of divorce begin.
Make me my husband’s helpmate, companion, champion,
friend, and support. Help me to create a peaceful, restful, safe
place for him to come home to. Teach me how to take care of
myself and stay attractive to him. Grow me into a creative and
confident woman who is rich in mind, soul, and spirit. Make me
the kind of woman he can be proud to say is his wife.
I lay all my expectations at Your cross. I release my
husband from the burden of fulfilling me in areas where I
should be looking to You. Help me to accept him the way he is
and not try to change him. I realize that in some ways he may
never change, but at the same time, I release him to change in
ways I never thought he could. I leave any changing that
needs to be done in Your hands, fully accepting that neither of
us is perfect and never will be. Only You, Lord, are perfect, and
I look to You to perfect us.
Teach me how to pray for my husband and make my
prayers a true language of love. Where love has died, create
new love between us. Show me what unconditional love really
is and how to communicate it in a way he can clearly perceive.
Bring unity between us so that we can be in agreement about
everything (Amos 3:3). May the God of patience and comfort
grant us to be like-minded toward one another, according to
Christ Jesus (Romans 15:5). Make us a team, not pursuing
separate, competitive, or independent lives, but working
together, overlooking each other’s faults and weaknesses for
the greater good of the marriage. Help us to pursue the things
which make for peace and the things by which one may edify
another (Romans 14:19). May we be “perfectly joined together
in the same mind and in the same judgment” (1 Corinthians
1:10).
I pray that our commitment to You and to one another will
grow stronger and more passionate every day. Enable him to be
the head of the home as You made him to be, and show me how
to support and respect him as he rises to that place of
leadership. Help me to understand his dreams and see things
from his perspective. Reveal to me what he wants and needs
and show me potential problems before they arise. Breathe
Your life into this marriage.
Make me a new person, Lord. Give me a fresh perspective, a
positive outlook, and a renewed relationship with the man
You’ve given me. Help me see him with new eyes, new
appreciation, new love, new compassion, and new acceptance.
Give my husband a new wife, and let it be me.
In Jesus’ name I pray.

Negative Effect of Testing a Man or Playing with his Intelligence or Heart during Dating

Testing a man or playing with his intelligence or heart during dating can have serious consequences that may carry over into a future marriage, leading to a host of negative outcomes. When you engage in such behavior, it can create a foundation of distrust, emotional pain, and misunderstanding that can be difficult to overcome. Imagine you’re in a relationship where you’re constantly testing your partner's intentions, questioning his sincerity, and trying to gauge how much he truly cares for you. While this might seem like a way to protect yourself or to ensure that his feelings are genuine, it can actually undermine the very relationship you’re trying to build.

I want to remind you of your immeasurable worth in the eyes of God. Your value is not determined by societal standards or relationships status, but by the love and promises of our Heavenly Father.

Focus your heart and mind on Jesus, for He alone can satisfy the deepest longings of your soul. Seek fulfillment in His presence, His love, and His purpose for your life.

However, even the most well-intentioned women can sometimes fall into the trap of testing a man in ways that are toxic and harmful to the relationship. These behaviors, though they may seem like a way to gauge a man’s commitment or strength, can backfire, causing damage to the bond you’re trying to nurture. Let’s explore 20 ways women might test a man, play with his intelligence or toil with his heart and feelings with the negative effects these actions can have on his commitment. 1.
