Pray for your husband

Pray for your husband.

This seems so obvious.. but how often does it happen?

The role of the husband in the Christian home is to be the head. He’s the leader of the family. He makes the hard decisions and takes the brunt of the world. He protects and provides for his family. He loves his wife as Christ loves the church.

The devil is after him.

Why wouldn’t he be. As the leader of the home he has a great responsibility on his shoulders to makes sure his family is in alignment with the word of God and with each other. If he falls, the family feels that and are affected by it.

So pray for him.

Prayer is such an effective way to fight the enemy’s schemes against your husband. The Creator of the universe is able to do more than you could even imagine, do you not think he could protect your husband?

You may be thinking to yourself, these are not traits that my husband even possesses. Pray for him anyway. Pray for his salvation if he’s not saved. Pray for him to have a pure heart and mind before the Lord. Pray for him to take the role of leadership seriously. We do not need to nag or beg or anything of the sort (read 1 Peter 3: 1-6). God cares about the condition of our hearts and this includes the heart of our husband. So, pray!

Our husbands are also our brothers-in-Christ and we should be encouraging them and praying for them just as we would our sisters-in-Christ. Pray for him and pray with him.

Be encouraged this morning, friend. We are on the winning side of this spiritual battle through the blood of Jesus. We are more than conquerors through Jesus! (Read Romans 8:35-39)
