4 Powerful Prayers for Your HusbandExemplo

Acceptance is a hallmark of a harmonious marriage. Seek a greater level of acceptance and affirmation in your marriage through this guided prayer. You can say this prayer word for word, or use it as a kickstart for your own prayer.

“Heavenly Father, criticism, judgment, and unrealistic expectations destroy the union of intimacy and hinders Your plan in our marriage relationship. I praise You for accepting and embracing me, despite my multiple faults, sins, and imperfections.

You are the perfect example of what 'true acceptance' and 'embracing' means. I praise You for the way You make me feel: fully loved – cherished – adored. And I thank You that You call my husband and me to love, accept and embrace each other in this capacity as well.

Gracious Lord, help me to love my husband from a pure heart so that he will truly be blessed by my acceptance and embracing of him. Please diminish those things in his life which make me uncomfortable or less than satisfied, diminish them in my own mind and perception.

Draw my attention to his qualities that make me so easily feel a heart of love and attraction for him. Help me to focus on those qualities and to build him up through my love, acceptance, and embrace.

I pray the same for him toward me and that You will guide our hearts to be open to the preferences of our spouse and to receive them with openness and acceptance. In Christ’s name, amen.”
