Praying for our husbands

A dear friend sent this to some more ‘Imperfect Wives’ and I just had to share it.  Something I need to print and do everyday.  I do pray for my husband but it is nice to not always have the same prayer…

His HeadThat he will look to You as Lord of his life.                         (1 Corinthians 11:3)

His MindThat he will have the mind of Christ and think as the Holy Spirit would lead him and not the flesh. (1 Corinthians 2:16)

His EyesThat You will keep his eyes from temptation and that he will turn his eyes from sin. (Matthew 6:13, Mark 9:47)

His EarsThat he will hear Your still small voice instructing him.      (1 Kings 19:12, Psalm 32:8)

His MouthThat his words will be pleasing to You. (Proverbs 19:1)

His NeckThat he will humble himself before You and be strong, courageous, and careful to do everything written in Your Word so that he will be prosperous and successful.                               (James 4:10, Joshua 1:8-9)

His HeartThat he will love and trust You with his whole heart. (Deuteronomy 6:5, Proverbs 3:5)

His ArmsThat You will be his strength. (Psalm 73:26)

His HandsThat he will enjoy the work of his hands and see it as a gift from You. (Ecclesiastes 3:13, 5:19)

His FeetThat You will order his steps and that he will walk in Your truth. (Proverbs 4:25, Psalm 26:3)

 

Oh and guess what?  My friend Beverly, that sent me this, said she got it from Girlfriends in God!  Love them!

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. - Ephesians 4:29

Have a blessed day! =)
