Praying from Head to Toe

I received this at Mom to Mom this week from one of the leaders. Little did she know we were talking about praying for our husbands this week. I do not believe in coincidences!

Dear Lord, I pray for my husband, from head to toe.

His head-That he will look to You as Lord of his life (1 Corinthians 11:13).

His mind-That he will have the mind of Christ and think as the Holy Spirit would lead him and not the flesh (1 Corinthians 2:16).

His eyes-That You will keep his eyes from temptation and that he will turn his eyes from sin (Matthew 6:13, Mark 9:47).

His ears-That he will hear Your still small voice instructing him (1 Kings 19:12, Psalm 32:8).

His mouth-That his words will be pleasing to You (Proverbs 19:14).

His neck-That he will humble himself before You and be strong, courageous, and careful to do everything written in Your Word so that he will be prosperous and successful (James 4:10, Joshua 1:8-9).

His heart- That he will love and trust You with his whole heart (Deuteronomy 6:5, Proverbs 3:5).

His arms-That You will be his strength (Psalm 73:26).

His hands-THat he will enjoy the work of his hands and see it as a gift from You (Ecclesiastes 3:13, 5:19).

His feet-That You will order his steps and that he will walk in Your truth (Proverbs 4:25, Psalm 26:3).

  1. I am enjoying reading how each of you women pray for your husbands. It would be interesting to know how y'all pray for yourselves, too.

  3. I was telling my husband last night that, just as I was convicted to begin praying for him daily, everybody started blogging about praying for their husbands. I'm bookmarking this to read Monday during my Bible time. Thanks!
