Are you a Christian wife struggling to pray for your husband? The Scripture (Psalm 103:20) says that angels harken unto the voice of the Word of God. If you pray the Word of God and BELIEVE, not doubting you will see tangible results in the life of your husband. Let the words that you voice over the life of your husband be the Word of God. The author experienced this same difficulty and was inspired by this same scripture to search the Bible for God's promises for her husband. Persevering in faith, she was able to see changes in her husband. These changes brought forth an improvement in their marriage, in terms of intimacy with each other and with God as well as the confidence to persevere and stay the course.

I think that the most disturbing thing about the high rate of divorce in the church for me is not only the agony that comes in the wake of such destruction, but the effect on the unbelieving couple when they see a Christian marriage fall apart. When they see this, I believe that one of two things happen; (a) the reinforcement of their belief that OUR belief in God is foolishness, or (b) that there is no hope for their marriage. I am not a marriage guru, or counsellor. I am quite simply a wife who was in search of answers to the myriad of problems I was facing in my marriage. I believe that wrong positioning causes us to miss the great things of God in our lives, and recognizing that God is indeed a God of order, I was seeking answers on how to get my marriage in order. I had to deal with the issues of fear, misplacement of our faith, broken covenants and how I pray over my the life of my husband. A question that kept coming up in my talks with my peers..."Does the Christian couple have a safe place in the church to air their concerns on any topic relating to their marriage including the issue of sex?"

The author demonstrates the Grace given to stay in her covenanted relationship despite challenges that abound. A loving wife who encourages her husband in the Lord. 'We have been invited into the deep and personal happenings in the writer's life and marriage, the struggles that sometimes goes on in her heart, when her will says "Yes Lord" even if her emotions are saying "oh no, not this time." We see how words aptly spoken become a tool of grace rather than a weapon of emasculation' - Apostle Wayne Palmer (Author: Firm Foundation - Christian Discipleship Manual)
