21 Powerful Prayers For Your Husband

Published January 15, 2024

Prayer is a crucial element in a successful marriage. Nothing can break you apart when you put God at the center of your relationship.

Yes, sometimes you ask yourself if this is still worth it. Sometimes, you just wonder whether you should stay or end it all. But such moments are typical in all marriages. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows as what the movies would lead you to believe. All couples go through worse times at some point in their marriage. There are even times when you’ll question whether you made the right decision in marrying him.

This is why, as a wife, you should never underestimate the power of praying for your husband. When you pray for your husband, the Holy Spirit will work through your marriage and enlighten your hearts to see God’s will more clearly. It helps you gain wisdom and clarity of mind to see each other as God wants you to. Praying for your husband is also a way of letting God work through him and fulfill His plans for him and your entire family.

Praying For Your Husband

To help you get started, here are some prayers you can use to pray for every area of your husband’s life.

Dear God,

Your word says that you will provide for our every need. I believe in your promise. Please provide for all of my husband’s needs: physical, spiritual, financial, and emotional. Help him feel your blessings in his life and help him to learn to depend on you for everything. Chase away his worries and teach him that you are faithful to care for our needs. And please help me to do the same, trusting in you more and more. Amen.

Prayer for Protection Against Temptation

Father,

I entrust you my husband, Your unique creation. You’ve promised to fill his soul with what he needs, and I ask You to do just that. Please guard his heart and mind. Protect him from temptation and fill him with the good things he needs so he can become the husband and father you intend him to be. All these I ask in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen.

Prayer of Gratitude

Lord,

I just want to thank You for giving him to me and me to him. You knew what You were doing all along. His traits that used to drive me crazy are now the strengths that fill in where I struggle.

Let him live with great conviction that Jesus Christ has authority over all things on earth and in the spiritual realm. You inhabit the praises of Your people, and I want him to enjoy the comfort and power of Your presence every moment. So, Father, please grant him an irrevocable gift of praising You. Let Your Spirit continually offer up a sacrifice of praise through him so that his lips always acknowledge Your name. Amen.

You gave my husband and me to each other. You blessed our union. I know You want it to work even more than we do. Please protect our bond. Keep my husband’s heart and eyes focused on me.

With You in our midst, I know we can face anything. These I ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.

Prayer for His Friends

Lord,

Thank you for giving my husband true friends who are ready to stick with him through and through. I pray that You will always provide such encouraging friendships for my husband.

May he always remain the kindhearted man I know him to be. Amen. 

Prayer for Patience

Lord,

Living with me isn’t always fun. Even in the best circumstances, nerves can get rubbed raw. I know I’m not the easiest person to be with. So give my husband Your heart when it comes to me. Let him see me the way You do. Then, when he gets frustrated, fill him with patience. Grant him the wisdom and willingness to understand why I do or say the things I say. And then turn around and do the same for me. May patience reign in our marriage until death do us part. Amen.

Today, I pray for my husband to have the strength to go about his day. Help him to remember that his strength and grace come from you. Help us all remember that all our good gifts come from you, Heavenly Father. When he feels weak, please remind him of your love and support. May he remember my undying love and support when he needs someone to lean on. Let me speak nothing but words of encouragement for him. Help me to be the wife that he needs me to be. Amen.

Let him know how much we love, trust, and respect him just as you do. Help me become his best partner, too, so together, we can raise our children in your ways. May our children know Your heavenly love personally and experience it through their earthly Father. Amen.

Prayer for a Restoration of Marriage

Lord God, our marriage is now at a difficult crossroads. We can’t move forward without anyone getting hurt, but we refuse to go backward. Our relationship feels broken, and we are drifting farther and farther apart daily. So, we are reaching out to You. Protect us from becoming another divorce statistic. In the name and through the blood of Jesus Christ, we resist the people who want us to end this marriage.

Lord, I come to you with this petition because you have made me one flesh with my spouse and said that no man should come between us. You have connected our two spirits in oneness and cemented them with the bond of Your Holy Spirit. And what God has joined together, we give no room for our enemy to bring division.

Lord, rekindle our love for one another. Give him that understanding wherever my spouse needs understanding to be drawn to you. Teach us to treat one another with dignity, love, and respect. Give us the grace and emotional strength to avoid using anger and hate as a weapon to fight against each other. In the precious and powerful name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray, Amen.
