Dearest Mama, The most important prayer you could ever pray for your husband is for him to know the love of Jesus more deeply.

The Bible says that Christ’s love is so unfathomable that we even have to pray to understand it…

“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God” Ephesians 3:16-19.

Once someone knows they are loved, they act differently. So often, the issues with our husbands in our marriages or parenting will fix themselves once our husbands know how much they are loved. A person with more awareness of the unconditional love of Jesus will be more patient and kind and give more grace. This is why your prayers are the most important thing you can do to foster change in your husband; God is the only one who can change a person; we cannot. Release control and simply pray for your husband. Then watch what God does in response to you trusting Him to work.

Pray this prayer…

“Lord, please bless my husband. Draw his heart to you. Let him know that you love him and You see him. Help him to Know Your love more deeply.”

I am praying for you today, mama.

With love,

Deb and the Help Club for Moms Team

Deb Weakly

Co-founder at Help Club for Moms

My name is Deb Weakly and I helped create the Help Club for Moms with one goal in mind: to create a community in which moms help moms to know the love of Christ. My own childhood was difficult and filled with sadness. I didn’t grow up in a Christian home, so when I became a Christian (and soon after, a mom), I had no idea what I was doing; I didn’t know what it meant to raise Christ-centered kids, but I so desperately wanted to learn.

I remember going into my daughter's room night after night and kneeling beside her bed and crying my heart out to God because I didn’t know how to be a Christian mom; I felt like I had no idea what I was doing. You know what? God is so faithful! He answered me and simply said, “Spend time with me, Deb.” And so I did. I began arising 15-30 minutes earlier each day so I could read my Bible and pray, and plan out my day with my family.

If there was one thing I would love to share with you is that God is personal and loves you as you are. You don’t have to be perfect to be loved by our amazing God! Come as you are! His loving presence can be practically known and experienced. He is not a God who is far away, He is near and easily found. He longs for you to come to Him!

Randy and I have been married for 33 years and we have two grown children, Christie, and Jack, and one answer to prayer son-in-law named Alex. And now I get to be a Gigi to my sweet little grandbabies, Aspen and Skylar, and Piper. Yay!
