For the first week, the challenge is to Revive Your Prayers for your Husband. The basis of this challenge is James 5:17. The verse says, "The effectual, fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."(KJV)
In the book by Stormie OMartian - The Power of a Praying Wife, she gives several examples of how we can pray for our husbands. Be sure and ask your husband if he has any special requests and include those. Here are a few others to include:
-
His Wife -that’s a good place to start right? lol!
-
His Work
-
His Finances
-
His Affections
-
His Temptations
-
His Fears
-
His Purpose
-
His Health
-
His Trials
-
His Integrity
-
His Priorities
-
His Fatherhood
-
His Past
-
His Attitude
-
One of my favorite verses on prayer is Philippians 4: 6 -7, "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving make your requests be made known to God and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. "
