I love my hubby. He's the most incredible man in the whole world. Everyday, I strive to do things special for him, and be the best wife for him that I can be.
One of the best things I can do for him is to pray for him daily. I recently found this helpful list of how I can pray for him. I hope this can benefit you as much as it has me!
How to Pray for my Husband
Head to Toe!
His Head –That he will look to You as Lord of his life. (1 Corinthians 11:13)

I have a book called The Power Of The Praying Wife. Its a pretty neat book.
I, too, have a book called "Praying for your Husband". It's great. I love the prayer you listed, too....I have seen that before and it's just so neat. It is just so vital to cover your husband in prayer. Great post! :)
I absolutely love that!!! Thanks! Hope you have a great Thursday!
Love your blog! I, also, have "The Power of a Praying Wife". I use it every day to guide my prayer for my husband, but I LOVE the scriptures that go with these. I think I'm going to put them on cards for my scripture memory verses. Awesome, thanks for sharing!
Well, I'm not married, but I'm going to try to remember that prayer. :-)
Check out my blog...I'm trying to get better at posting! :-)
So crazy that you posted this today. Last night as I was laying in bed, I felt the need to pray for my 'future husband'. Although, I have no idea who he may be - I still prayed for him, and I was kind of having a hard time knowing what to pray about.
Thanks so much for your "Thoughtful Thursdays" posts!
i love that and will definitely use it...thanks so much for sharing!!!
I think praying scriptures truly pleases God. And to offer them up for husband is even more!
Thanks for the list and references!
Thank you, always...Love mom oxoxo
It's crazy, crazy here at the resort!
I think this is a great post. I think i'm going to make the list pretty using the computer and keep it for later :)
Yes! I still have this in my desk from when you sent it to me a few months ago. I am going to think of a creative way to make sure I think of it every day. It is so important that we honor and cherish our wonderful hubs!

Thank you for this reminder. . . and from reading the other comments, I am reminded that I need to pray DAILY for Edison's future wife.
i love praying scripture, and allie thanks for stopping by, our house and my life is near chaos with packing signing documents, faxing, scrounging boxes from the grocery store, your comment was like a refreshing cup of water
Fabulous post. It's so easy to forget to pray for the one person we love the most (mostly b/c let's face it, he's around all the time). But these are great scriptures to remember.
This is so good! Thank you for reminding that one of the best ways to love them is to pray for them!
Ok, so I posted you on the blog, then a friend from College Station said that someone had posted your blog on their group page (it's called BCS mama's...like a forum or something). You're taking over Texas!!
