      31 Days of Prayer for My Husband - The Great Commandment Network

      INTRODUCTION

      Marriage is one of the most exciting relationships God has created. And yet all marriages can use more of God, more of His Word, and more Christ-like attitudes that put each other first. That’s why we’ve written 31 Days of Praying for Your Husband.

      We’ve served hundreds of thousands of couples with training events and resources, and it’s confirmed: every couple wants a strong, intimate, thriving marriage! Too often though, in their search for closeness, many couples find themselves asking the wrong question.

      Could it be that an enriched, deepened marriage full of joy, intimacy, and fulfillment is realized not by focusing on and answering the question How do I get the most out of my marriage but by answering the question How does God get what He wants out of my marriage? Through this resource, we give you a daily opportunity to hear God’s perspective about your husband and your marriage. Inviting the Creator of marriage into a marriage will always be a good idea!

      Finally, we’ve also designed 31 Days of Prayer for My Husband for your enrichment, encouragement, and growth. As you spend time with Jesus, in His Word and doing His Book, your life will forever be changed.

      May God richly bless your time with Jesus and your relationship with your spouse.

      Executive Editor, Great Commandment Network 1

      The Great Commandment Network is an international collaborative network of strategic kingdom leaders from the faith community, marketplace, education, and caregiving fields who prioritize the powerful simplicity of the words of Jesus to love God, love others, and see others become His followers (Matthew 22:37–40; 28:19–20).

      Day 1

      WHY PRAY FOR MY HUSBAND?

      Why is it important to dedicate the time or make it a priority to pray your husband? Setting aside thirty-one days to pray for your spouse makes sense for many reasons. Here are just a few:

      • As we pray for our spouse, we’re joining Jesus as He prays on their behalf.

      Hebrews tells us that He lives forever to intercede with God on [our] behalf (Hebrews 7:25). And the book of Romans reminds us he is sitting in the place of honor at God’s right hand, pleading for us (Romans 8:34). Don’t you imagine the Savior’s prayer list includes your husband? When you pray, you have the privilege of joining Jesus in prayer for him.

      • As we pray for our spouse, we’re joining Jesus in his celebrations.

      In Christ’s last moments on earth, He revealed His loving desire for us: that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full (John 15:11 NASB). Jesus finds joy in your husband and in your marriage. Since marriage is a special representation of Christ’s love for the church, He feels a special joy when He sees marriages thriving. He loves when our relationship is a testimony to a hurting world. When you pray, you have the privilege of joining Jesus in a celebration of the beauty of marriage (see Proverbs 18:22; James 1:17).

      • As we pray for our spouse, we’re joining Jesus in His concern.

      Jesus feels compassion for the struggles in your marriage and any challenges your husband might be facing. His heart is moved with compassion when He sees your groom hurting, disappointed, discouraged, or alone. So join Jesus in praying for your spouse, lifting up concerns and asking the Lord to give you a deeper understanding of your husband. Praying for your husband allows the Holy Spirit to help you see what He sees, so you can love him the way that Jesus loves (see 2 Corinthians 1:2–4).

      • As we pray for our spouse, we strengthen our own walk with Jesus.

      Spending time with our Savior deepens our closeness with Him. As you pray, the Spirit will minister to your heart, to your needs, and to your concerns. So wives, let’s pray for our husbands! Let’s pray often. Let’s pray consistently. Let’s pray boldly. Let’s pray faithfully (see Romans 8:26–27).

      Take the next few moments and join Jesus in prayer:

      * Jesus, when I imagine that I can join you in prayer, my heart feels grateful because ________.

      * I want to join you in prayer for my husband. First, I’m grateful for my husband because ________.

      * I lift up my husband to you and pray specifically that you would ________.

      Day 2

      HOW TO PRAY FOR YOUR HUSBAND

      A

      world where the prince of darkness seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, needs Christ-followers who walk in the light (John 10:10; 12:35 NASB). For the next thirty-one days, we encourage you to take a journey of walking in the light. During your times of prayer, you will walk in the light of God’s Son, God’s Word, and God’s people (John 8:12; Matthew 5:14; Psalm 119:105). As you take the journey, you will spend moments in personal prayer but then also pray for your husband. You’ll pray for your husband to:

      • encounter Jesus in fresh, new ways as you both take time to listen to Him,

      • live out the Bible frequently, and

      • interact with people by demonstrating supportive expressions of God’s love.

      Let’s have a first encounter with Jesus. As you read these words from the Savior, imagine that He is speaking directly to you. Listen for His compassionate, strong voice. He’s thrilled to share these moments just with you.

      PRAY AND LISTEN TO JESUS

      The darkness of this world is all around you, and I don’t want you to be overtaken. So I have a plan. I have a plan for your protection, guidance, and strength. If you’ll spend time with me, my Word, and my people, darkness won’t have a chance. As you encounter me, I will protect you because I’m the Light of the world. Let my Word guide you and light your way. Let my people encourage you and give you strength. Walking in the light is the best place to be because that means we’re walking together (see John 8:12; Matthew 5:14; Psalm 119:105).

      * Jesus, when I look at the darkness of this world, I feel especially concerned about _________.

      * Lord, I am grateful for your protection, guidance, and strength, particularly because ________.

      * Jesus, I also pray for my husband. I pray my husband would spend more quality time with you, your Word, and your people so that darkness doesn’t have a chance in our home and in our marriage.

      * I pray you would protect my husband from _______.

      * I pray you would guide my husband in _________.

      * I pray you would strengthen my husband in ________.

      As you continue this journey of prayer, remember the goal. Your times of prayer can’t be focused on changing your husband. These moments with Jesus and His Word are designed to first develop Christ-likeness in you. The destination of your journey is a person, and His name is Jesus. As you spend time focused on getting to know Christ and experiencing more of His love and as you spend time focused on living out His Word, not just reading or hearing it, you’ll become like Him. This journey will change something—and hopefully it’s you!

      Finally, as you take this journey of prayer, it will also be important to remember this goal. Your husband doesn’t need more things to do or assessments of his behavior. He rarely needs to hear more information or rational advice. Your husband will change as he encounters Jesus, His Word, and His people.

      You may be thinking, "My husband needs
