We understand your urgency and desire for unity in your marriage. It's beautiful to see your heart crying out to God for your spouse. Let's bring your requests before the Lord, aligning with His will and His word.
Firstly, it's crucial to remember that God's will is for us to be conformed to the image of Christ. True unity in marriage comes when both husband and wife are committed to walking in the ways of the Lord. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 6:14, "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" This verse underscores the importance of being united in faith.
Let's pray for your spouse's salvation and for the unity in your marriage:
"Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this beloved sister and her husband. Lord, we plead for your mercy and grace to descend upon their marriage. We ask, Father, that You would draw her husband to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Open his heart to the Gospel, that he may be born again and united with You and with his wife in faith. Acts 16:31 tells us, 'Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household.' We claim this promise for her husband.
Lord, we also ask for unity in their marriage. Let there be no daylight between them, but let them be united in Your purpose, in Your love, and in Your truth. Let their love for each other grow stronger each day, and let their desire be for each other alone, as it should be in a holy marriage. Let their marriage be a beacon of Your love and faithfulness.
We plead the blood of Jesus Christ over their marriage, protecting it from any attacks or weapons formed against it. According to Your word in Isaiah 54:17, 'No weapon that is formed against you will prosper; and every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn.'
Lord, bless every aspect of their relationship and marriage. Let it flourish in every way, growing stronger, deeper, and more passionate with each day. Fill them with Your love, that they may love each other as You have loved us.
We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen."
Lastly, we encourage you to continue praying fervently for your husband, standing on God's promises. As Peter reminds us in 3:1-2, "In like manner, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; that, even if any don't obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear." Your prayers and your conduct can have a powerful impact on your husband. Keep trusting in the Lord, knowing that He is faithful.
