Heavenly Father, we come before You with a humble heart, lifting up this sincere request for a godly husband. Your Word says in Proverbs 18:22, "He who finds a wife finds what is good and receives favor from the Lord." We pray that You will bring a man into this person's life who embodies the qualities of respect, protection, and love.
Lord, we ask for a husband who is a good leader, as described in 1 Timothy 3:2, "Now the overseer is to be above reproach, faithful to his wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectable, hospitable, able to teach." May this man be hardworking and loyal, a provider who stands firm in his faith and values.
Father, we seek Your protection from any form of abuse or harm. We pray for a man who will cherish and nurture this person, the baby, and even the family pet, reflecting the love and care that Christ has for the church, as stated in Ephesians 5:25, "Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her."
We ask for wisdom and strength to deal with any toxic influences from family or friends, as Your Word instructs in James 1:5, "If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." May this future husband have discernment and courage to protect the family from any negative influences.
Lord, we pray for a deep, abiding love that mirrors 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray for this blessing, trusting in Your perfect timing and provision. Amen.
