Let us begin by thanking God for the blessing of marriage and the love that exists between you and your husband. We are reminded in Ephesians 5:25, "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it." This verse highlights the sacrificial love that husbands are called to demonstrate towards their wives. In Ephesians 5:22 we are told, "Wives be subject to your husbands, as to the Lord."
Given your request, we encourage you to communicate openly with your husband about your needs and desires. It is important that both of you are considerate to each other.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this beloved wife and husband. We pray for clear communication and understanding between them. Lord, we ask that You guide the heart of this husband, and give him a willing spirit to be attentive and considerate of his wife's needs, just as Christ is to the church.
If there is a reason for an issue in this relationship, please help them both to see it and to be aware of it. If there is sin being committed by either, please make them both aware of it clearly and convict them of this. If this husband is neglecting his wife, please convict him of this and lead him to repentance and to loving his wife as You have commanded.
If there is something this wife is doing that is wrong, please convict her of this and lead her to repentance. Please show them both what they need to do to honor You in their relationship and guide them both to do it. If they are not walking in Your will, please make them both aware of it and help them both find Your will for their relationship.
Please help them both to honor You in their relationship. If they have not accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour, or are not following Him, we pray that they both would turn their lives over to Jesus Christ and walk in His will for them. Please give them both wisdom and love and patience to honor You in their marriage and to walk in Your will.
We pray for healing, restoration, and strengthening of their bond. Guide them both with Your wisdom and give them grace sufficient for all the trials they both face.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
May God bless you and your husband and lead you both in the paths of righteousness.
