The Good Wife- Prayer Battle Day 10-12

DAY 10

PRAYING FOR HIS CHOICES 

Choices pretty much define us in every way, pray your husband makes the right choices in life.

PRAYER

Lord, fill my husband with the fear of the Lord and give him wisdom for every decision he makes. May he reverence You and Your ways and seek to know Your truth. Give him discernment to make decisions based on Your revelation. Help him to make godly choices and keep him from doing anything foolish. Take foolishness out of his heart and enable him to quickly recognize error and avoid it. Open his eyes to clearly see the consequences of any anticipated behavior.

I pray that he will listen to godly counselors and not be a man who is unteachable. Give him strength to reject the counsel of the ungodly and hear Your counsel above all others. I declare that although there are many plans in a man’s heart, nevertheless the Lord’s counsel – that will stand(Proverbs 19:21). Instruct him even as he is sleeping(Psalm 16:17) and in the morning, I pray he will do what’s right rather than follow the leading of his own flesh. I know the wisdom of the world is foolishness with You, Lord(1 Corinthians 3:19). May he not buy into it, but keep his eyes on You and have ears to hear Your voice.

DAY 11

PRAYING FOR HIS HEALTH

If you have ever been seriously ill before you will know that having a good health is joy and it makes you feel very much alive. Pray for your husband to have good health.

PRAYER

Lord, I pray for Your healing touch on  (husband’s name). Make every part of his body function the way You designed it to. Wherever there is anything out of balance, set it in perfect working order. Heal him of any disease, illness, injury, infirmity, and weakness. Strengthen his body to successfully endure his workload, and when he sleeps may he wake up completely rested, rejuvenated and refreshed. Give him a strong heart that doesn’t fail. I don’t want him to have heart failure at any time.

I pray that he will have the desire to take care of his body, to eat the kind of food that brings health, to get regular exercise, and avoid anything that would be harmful to him. Help him to understand that his body is Your temple and he should care for it as such(1 Corinthians 3:16). I pray that he will present it as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to You(Romans 12:1).

When he is ill, I pray You will sustain him and heal him. Fill him with your joy to give him strength. Specifically, I pray for (mention any area of concern). Give him faith to say, O Lord my God, I cried out to You and You healed me(Psalm 30:2). Thank You Lord that You are my Healer. I pray that my husband will live a long and healthy life and when death does come, may it be accompanied by peace and not unbearable suffering and agony. Thank You, Lord, that You will be there to welcome him into Your presence, and not a moment before Your appointed hour.

PRAYING FOR HIS PROTECTION 

Every day we go about our routines, safety is important, either indoors or outdoors. Pray for your husband to be safe at all times.

PRAYER

Lord, I pray that you would protect  (husband’s name) from any accidents, diseases, dangers, or evil influences. Keep him safe, especially in cars and planes. Hide him from violence and the plans of evil people. Wherever he walks, secure his steps. Keep him on Your path so that this feet don’t slip(Psalm 17:5). If his food does slip, hold him up by Your mercy(Psalm 94:18). Give him the wisdom and discretion that will help him walk safely and not fall into danger(Proverbs 3:21-23). Be his fortress, strength, shield, and stronghold(Psalm 18:2,3). Make him to dwell in the shadow of Your wings(Psalm 91:1-2). Be his rock, salvation, and defense, so that he will not be moved or shaken(Psalm 62:6). I pray that even though bad things may be happening all around him, they will not come near him(Psalm 91:7). Save him from any plans of the enemy that seek to destroy his life(Psalm 103:4). Preserve his going out and his coming in from this time forth and even forevermore(Psalm 121:8).
