Praying for Our Husbands (part 8)

Today is the day to pray for your husband’s back. Both his physical back to be strong & healthy and his spiritual back.

In Ephesians 6:10-20, in talks about putting on the whole armor of God… the belt of truth, the breast-plate of righteousness, feet with the gospel of peace, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, & the Sword of the Spirit. All of these ways to keep your body covered, but nothing for the back! I believe that is because we must charge forward to the next battle. It is the front of the body that needs to be covered… we will not turn & run!

I love the verse that says, Therefore understand today that the Lord your God is He who goes over before you as a consuming fire. He will destroy them and bring them down before you; so you shall drive them out and destroy them quickly, as the Lord has said to you.” Deuteronomy 1:30 With God leading us like that, we can rest assured He has got our back.

So as you pray for your husband’s back, ask God to keep him strong & moving forward in all God has for him & your family. Pray protection in the physical & spiritual, knowing & believing that no weapon formed against him will prosper. (Isaiah 54:17)

Know that praying for your husband means you have got his back!

Rejoicing in Truth!
