Lord, create in me a clean heart and renew a right spirit
within me (Psalm 51:10). Show me where my attitude and
thoughts are not what You would have them to be, especially
toward my wife. Convict me when I am being unforgiving.
Help me to let go of any anger, so that confusion will
not have a place in my mind. If there is behavior in me that
needs to change, enable me to make changes that last. Whatever
You reveal to me, I will confess to You as sin. Make me
a man after Your own heart. Enable me to be the head of my
home and family that You created me to be.
Lord, show me how to really cover (wife’s name or future wife’s name) in
prayer. Enable me to dwell with her with understanding
and give honor to her so that my prayers will not be hindered
(1 Peter 3:7). Renew our love for one another. Heal
any wounds that have caused a rift between us. Give me
patience, understanding, and compassion. Help me to be
loving, tenderhearted, and courteous to her just as You ask
me in Your Word (1 Peter 3:8). Enable me to love her the
way that You do.
Lord, I pray that You would bring (wife’s name or future wife’s name) and me
to a new place of unity with one another. Make us be of the
same mind. Show me what I need to do in order to make
that come about. Give me words that heal, not wound. Fill
my heart with Your love so that what overflows through my
speech will be words that build up, not tear down. Convict
my heart when I don’t live Your way. Help me to be the man
and husband that You want me to be.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
