Praying/I am Blessed


I am Blessed. I am blessed with a husband who prays for me. I am blessed like my namesake with a husband that entreats the Lord for me. My namesake’s husband prayed for his wife. He prayed for 20 years before God answered his prayer. I can imagine how blessed she felt that her husband prayed for her and had such faith in God.
Genesis 25:21  And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
I can imagine how she felt because I too am married to a man of faith that prays. I know how it feels to know my husband lifts my various needs to the Lord on a daily basis. To know that he entreats the Lord on my behalf is an encouragement to me and gives me strength.
1 Peter 3:7  Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered.
I am Blessed. That my husband prays with me, and for me, and when I can’t pray because I have no words he prays for both of us.
Psalms 112:1  Praise ye the LORD. Blessed is the man that feareth the LORD, that delighteth greatly in his commandments.
Praise God! I am Blessed with a husband that fears the Lord and reads his Bible.
Proverbs 20:6  Most men will proclaim every one his own goodness: but a faithful man who can find?
I am blessed. My husband is humble and faithful. Despite all the things he does and has done he is not boastful or self-promoting. I am blessed that he is all of these things and more. I am blessed that I call him Husband. I am blessed that our son has such a man to be his example and to call him Dad.
How has  your husband blessed you? How have these things been overlooked in the day to day moments? Think about the things he does for you. How can you bless him in return? There are many things you can do that would bless him, but above all he needs your prayers. Make a list of the things you could pray for him. Ask him what he would like you to pray for him. Google a list of prayers for husbands if you need ideas, but pray for your husband.
