A prayer for a wife & a husband

Dear God:

I lift to you in prayer the institute of marriage.  Today’s world has corrupted the sacred covenant you have created.  Today I pray for all those who have or getting ready to embarked on their marital journey.

My prayer for a “WIFE”

  • May she make you her first love, so that she can truly love her husband as unconditional as you love us
  • May her will align with your will
  • May she increase in patience
  • May she humble herself to her husband the way Sarah did to Abraham
  • May she increase in self-esteem and self-worth
  • May she increase in supporting and uplifting her husband, being his one and only cheerleader
  • May she choose her husband first, even before her children, for the essence of their family starts with the relationship between her and her husband
  • May she increase in love
  • May she stay prayerful
  • May she have confidence
  • May she resist temptation
  • May she stay loyal & faithful to you and to her husband 
  • May she have a forgiving heart

My prayer for a “HUSBAND”

  • May he solely look to you for guidance in becoming the leader of his home
  • May he make you his first love, so that he can truly love his wife like Christ loved his church
  • May he increase in sensitivity for his wife and his children
  • May he not mistake his leadership role as a dictatorship
  • May he have a forgiving heart    
  • May he stay prayerful
  • May he increase in wisdom
  • May he increase in strength, both physical and mental
  • May he increase in love
  • May he stay loyal & faithful to you and his wife
  • May he resist temptation
  • May look to you to take away the stress that falls atop his shoulders
  • May he cherish his wife
