40 Prayers for my Husband: His Faithfulness




"Be on your guard;
stand firm in the faith;
be men of courage;
be strong.
Do every thing in love."
~1 Corinthians 16:13-14~


Becoming a man of faith, is our prayer for our husbands today. Praying his faithfulness to the Lord will trump all else. Which will lead him to be faithful in all he does, a man worthy of his calling.

You may also be encouraged to read of  faithfulness in a wife. You can find it here.

Prayer #23. His Faithfulness

Father, thank You that You are forever faithful. Today I pray You will again prove Your great faithfulness to my husband.
Lord, You promise to preserve the faithful (Ps.31:22) not letting them come to ruin. Today, teach my husband to be faithful. Teach him to be a man of courage, standing for what is good and right in Your eyes. Help him stand against the enemy's schemes to make him fall. I pray he will be on his guard against anything that would ruin his reputation or the trust of those around him. 
Jesus, thank You for Your faithfulness, even to the cross. You have proven to our Rock. All Your ways are perfect and just. You are a faithful God who does no wrong. (Ps.86:15) I pray You would give my husband abundant desire to be faithful like You. To desire purity and trustworthiness, so that his ways will always prove faithful.
Father, I lift our marriage before You. Remove any temptations that will lead to impurity, adultery, or loss of trust. Make him a man pure in thought and deed, always faithful to Your word so that he can lead a life holy and blameless before You and men. Make righteousness to be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist. (Is.11:5) I know anyone who has been trusted with something, must then prove himself faithful. (1Cor.4:2) Father, make my husband a man who will prove himself faithful in the little things, so that he can then be faithful and trusted with greater things. Help him always hold fast to ways that are good and right, establishing him as a man worthy of his calling. Grow his love for You to be greater than his love for me or anything else on this earth. In that way he will become a man faithful in the marriage covenant and faithful in all his ways. In Jesus' name. Amen.

"the Lord your God is God;
He is the faithful God,
keeping His covenant of love
to a thousand generations"
~Deuteronomy 7:9~
