10 Ways to Pray For Your Husband


1. Pray for your husband's relationship with God.
"But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen."  2 Peter 3:18

2. Pray that God would bless your husband.
"Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart."  Ephesians 6:6

3. Pray for your husband to be a spiritual leader to your family.
"But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the women is man, and the head of Christ is God."  1 Corinthians 11:3

4. Pray for your husband to love you deeply.
"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her hold, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church - "  Ephesians 5:25-29

5. Pray that your husband would have a heart for his children.
"Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord."  Ephesians 6:4

6. Pray for your husband to make wise choices.
"You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love. For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other."  Galatians 5:13-15

7. Pray for your husbands emotional, mental, and physical health.
"Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God - this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing and perfect will."  Romans 12: 1-2

8. Pray for your husband to prosper at work.
"Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain."
1 Corinthians 15:58

9. Pray for your husband's power to resist sexual temptation.
"I belong to my beloved, and his desire is for me."  Song of Songs 7:10

10. Pray that you will show your husband respect, grace, and kindness
"Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value. She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life."  Proverbs 31:11-12
