10 Tips For Effective Prayers As A WifeSample

Tip 1:

Don’t allow yourself to be overwhelmed by so many approaches to prayer. Start with a couple ideas and watch what happens. Pick out two to three things from these tips and enjoy some small victories first. Couch your prayers in a confident trust as the psalmist did his.

Tip 2:

Buy a little notebook (or use your computer/smart device) that you keep confidential from everyone and start tracking God’s answers to your specific requests regarding your husband. The following is a method you might try as an example:. 

Please, God, help my husband to finalize his report for work and receive recognition for it. 7/1/17 Prayed first. Yes!  8/13/17 42 days, answered.

A. Number the first prayer and continue numbering every time you add another request.

B. Put the date next to it when you started praying it: 7/1/17.

C. When God answers with a “yes” or “no,” then write it on the right side of your request: (yes, no, shift in perspective)

D. Then put the date God answered your prayer: 8/13/17.

E. Estimate how many days you prayed until God answered: 42 days.

F. Put a star next to the number when you pray extra hard for it that day: **.

G. Then circle the number every time God answers with a “yes.” It will shock you how many “yesses” you receive! 

H. As you pray, add Scriptures God gives you which enforce or inform your prayer and what it is you are praying for, specifically or generally.
