Would love to hear from you! ❤️

Welcome back to Heart Of A Husband, where we explore the journey of being a husband who loves and leads like Jesus. I’m your host, Paul Harris. Today, we're diving into a topic that can truly transform your marriage – the power of praying for our wives. 🙏💕

In this episode, we'll cover:

Understanding Empathy in Prayer: Jesus prays for us with deep empathy because He understands our struggles. Hebrews 2:18 reminds us that because He Himself suffered when tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted. This empathy is crucial in how we should pray for our wives. When we pray with empathy, we connect with their struggles and needs on a deeper level.

Feeling disconnected or even upset with your wife? Learn why praying for her, especially out loud during tough times, can change everything. It's easy to pray when things are great, but the true power lies in praying during the hardest moments. Just like Jesus prayed for us on the cross, we can pray for our wives with humility and empathy.

I’ll share a personal story of a husband who was struggling in his marriage but saw a transformation when he started praying for his wife out loud, reflecting 1 John 4:18's teaching that perfect love casts out fear.

Practical Steps to Pray for Our Wives:

1. Ask How You Can Pray: Directly ask your wife about her prayer needs.
2. Pray Out Loud: Experience the power of spoken words and physical touch. Proverbs 18:21 and Mark 16:18 guide us to speak life and healing.
3. Daily Prayer Routine: Make it a habit to pray for your wife each night before bed. Try this for a month and witness the change.
4. Avoid Condemnation: Instead of focusing on changes you want in your wife, invite the Holy Spirit into your marriage and pray God’s heart over her.

In the final segment, Husband’s Love Challenge, commit to asking your wife how you can pray for her each night this week. Hold her hand, pray out loud, and express your love for her in front of God. This simple act can bring you closer together and invite God's presence into your marriage.

Tune in and transform your marriage through the power of prayer. 🙏❤️
