7 Prayers For Your Husband With Scripture

Marriage carries a lot of responsibilities. However, if you always pray for your husband to God, you are bringing your marriage to him, and he will take care of everything that marriage includes.

How long has it been since you prayed for your husband? I’m not talking about a generic prayer in which you mention your husband, friends, and family and ask God to look after them.

I’m referring to going before God, with your husband as the focus of your prayer and dedicating it to him. In our hectic lives, it might be difficult to make time to pray for our spouses.

However, if you make this a priority and follow through, you will discover that it is well worth the effort.
