Prayer #4:
Appeal to God to help your husband overcome his problems.
If you husband is human, then your husband struggles with personal and professional challenges and problems that discourage and weaken him. If your husband isn’t facing at least one problem, then wait until tomorrow. Problems are part and parcel to life itself. Just imagine how your husband will feel when he discovers that you care so much for him that you’ll help shoulder the weight with him through prayer.
Whether the issue is an arrogant boss, unreasonable “top-down” impossible goals, a lack of money to pay the car insurance this month, a brother who always tears him down in front of others, or exhaustion because his long-awaited vacation just happened to fall on the very day his aging mother fell, breaking her hip, and he had to cancel everything and drive 400 miles to help her all week... You get the idea!
Often you will be aware of these issues because you live together and so you can immediately pick up on and bring his disappointment or discouragement or frustration or anger to God and appeal for God’s comfort and intervention. But other times you may not be aware and so it is okay to ask him about things he would like for you to pray about, or pray about things you sense may be a problem for him.
No matter who your husband is, he faces issues and temptations, like every other man. Appeal to God to protect your husband from the temptations he’s most vulnerable to and ask God to fill him with extra comfort. Focus not on attacking him but on protecting him. Comfort him so that his inner strength will increase and he will have the courage to say no when tempted.
Can you list three challenging problems that you know your husband is currently struggling with?
You don’t have to tell him, “I want to pray for you about this.” But you can tell him as well. Whatever the case, use grace in your words and prayers. We are all human, after all. Be one with your husband and care enough to find out either in conversation or through your discernment what challenges he is dealing with, then pray for these specifically each day.
