DAY 25
PRAYING FOR HIS REPENTANCE
Many men have fallen into temptation and
they cover up with pride and the inability to say the truth, confess and
repent. Pray that your husband be convicted of his sin, to humbly confess it
before God, then turn from his error and cease to do it.
PRAYER
Lord, I pray that You would convict my husband of any error in his
life. Let there be “nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that
will not be known (Matthew 10:26). Cleanse him from any secret sins and reach
him to be a person who is quick to confess when he is wrong (Psalm 19:12). Help
him to recognize his mistakes. Give him eyes to see Your truth and ears to hear
Your voice. Bring him to full repentance before You. If there is suffering to
be done, let it be the suffering of a remorseful heart and not because the
crushing hand of the enemy has found an opening into his life through
unconfessed sin. Lord, I know that humility must come before honor (Proverbs
15:33). Take away all pride that would cause him to deny his faults and work
into his soul a humility of heart so that he will receive the honor You have
for him.

DAY 26
PRAYING FOR HIS DELIVERANCE
There are some certain lifestyle your husband may be living which
is morally wrong, it may be something new or an old lifestyle that has pulled
him into bondage as though he cannot do without. Pray he is delivered and set
free
PRAYER
Lord, You have said to call upon You in the day of trouble and You
will deliver us (Psalm 50:15). I call upon You now and ask that You would work
deliverance in my husband’s life. Deliver him from anything that binds him. Set
him free from (name a specific thing). Deliver him quickly and be a rock of
refuge, a fortress of defence to save him (Psalm 31:2). Lift him away from the
hands of the enemy (Psalm 31:15).
Bring him to a place of understanding where he can recognize the
work of evil and cry out to You for help. If the deliverance he prays for isn’t
immediate, keep him from discouragement and help him to be confident that You
have begun a good work in him and will complete it (Philippians 1:6). Give him
the certainty that even in his most hopeless state, when he finds it impossible
to change anything, You, Lord, can change everything.
Help him understand that we do not wrestle against flesh and
blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the
darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly
places (Ephesians 6:12). I pray that he will be strong in the Lord and put on
the whole armor of God, so he can stand against the wiles of the devil in the
evil day. Help him to gird his waist with truth and put on the breastplate of
righteousness, having shod his feet with the preparation of the gospel of
peace. Enable him to take up the shield of faith, with which to quench all the
fiery darts of the wicked one. I pray that he will take the helmet of
salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, praying
always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful and
standing strong to the end (Ephesians 6:13-18).

DAY 27
PRAYING FOR HIS OBEDIENCE
Most women complain that their husband
doesn't listen to their good advice or words to help them follow the right
path. Actually it is easy if you take it to God first and listen to God’s
voice, He will let you know if you have to speak to your husband, and when you do
he’ll hear God’s voice in your words.
PRAYER
Lord, You have said in Your Word that if we regard iniquity in our
hearts, You will not hear (Psalm 66:18). I want You to hear my prayers, so I
ask You to reveal where there is any disobedience in my life, especially with
regard to my husband. Show me if I’m selfish, unloving, critical, angry,
resentful, unforgiving, or bitter toward him. Show me where I have not obeyed
You or lived Your way. I confess it as sin and ask for Your forgiveness.
I pray that You would give (your husband’s name) a desire to live
in obedience to Your laws and Your ways. Reveal and uproot anything he
willingly gives place to that is not of You. Help him to bring every thought
and action under Your control. Remind him to do good, speak evil of no one, and
be peaceable, gentle, and humble (Titus 3:1,2). Teach him to embrace the
stretching pain of discipline and discipleship. Reward him according to his
righteousness and according to the cleanness of his hands (Psalm 18:20). Show
him Your ways, O Lord; teach him Your paths. Lead him in Your truth, for You
are the God of his salvation (Psalm 25:4,5).
Make him a praising person, for I know that when we worship You we
gain clear understanding, our lives are transformed, and we receive power to
live Your way. Help him to hear Your specific instructions to him and enable
him to obey them. Give him a heart that longs to do Your will and may he enjoy
the peace that can only come from living in total obedience to Your commands.
