Prayer for My Husband

Please pray that God send to me, the man that He put here to be my husband.

One thing I will add is what God shared with me in an intense prayer session I had with him on these very topic, where I was listing to Him the qualities that I desired in a spouse. I heard his spirit say ever so clearly to me that instead of praying for a good man, I should pray to become a good woman. He said that a good man will not be attracted to me for my looks, or what I have - he will be attracted to me because of the Jesus he sees in me. I kinda had my mouth wide open at this because I thought I was already a good woman. Little did I know I had and still have more to learn about and to grow in this area. However, true to His word, God blessed me with a spouse, not even while I was looking or thinking or praying about one, who was attracted to me and loves me, I believe, mainly because of the Jesus he sees in me.

Keep striving to be more like Christ and all these things "including the husband God has for you" will be added unto you.

What a powerful message! Thank you for sharing this message it just hit something inside me that I really need to be tuning into the Lord about. Thanks!

I too am praying for God to send me the man He has intended to be my husband as well. In the process I came across a book called Praying For Your Future Husband: Preparing Your Heart for His by Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer. This is a wonderful find because while the book gives you scriptures and prayers for your future husband, it has gives the same for you so that you will be ready when God brings the two of you together. It is a very easy read and I honestly feel that is helping me become the good woman God intends me to be for my future husband but also to have a closer relationship with God as well. I will be praying for you and your future husband that your hearts are open and ready to receive each other's love when God sees fit. Be blessed.

Thank you for posting this prayer request for the right husband. I also pray for the same thing. Being divorced at a young age, I want to make sure I get it right the next time.

Thank you for the powerful message about praying to become a good woman. This is an interesting perspective that I never thought about, but it definitely makes perfect sense.

Thank you for posting the book reference for praying for your future husband. These 3 posts have helped me tremendously.

Amen to this! "When the Queen is ready, her King will appear!"

Amen!!!! I found myself really praying for a husband after God's own heart. But as of late I am working on being faithful to him while I wait. He has to be the priority in your life at all times even after he answers this prayer.
