14 Praying for His Integrity
Dear Lord, I pray that my husband would be a man of integrity. Honest, Trustworthy, Dependable,
Faithful. Help him keep his commitments
firm and not renege on his promises (Psalm 15:4), following through on what he
says he will do, making his yes be yes and no be no. (Matt 5:37)
Please keep him from justifying his actions based on what other men say
or think. You know his heart. Just because others say it’s ok or the norm
doesn’t mean you approve. (Luke
16:15).
Please fill him with your Spirit
and guide him into all truth (John 16:13). If he has sinned in this area, please show him so he can confess and
repent of any falsehood in his life. Thank you for your faithfulness to forgive even when he fails. (I John 1:8-9). And Lord, as he walks in integrity, relying
on you, please protect him, vindicate him, uphold him, and guide him. (Prov
11:3, 26:1, 25:12)
Matthew 5:37 Let your word be ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no.’ More than this is
from the evil one.
Luke 16:15 But Jesus said to them, “You are the ones who justify
yourselves in men’s eyes, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly prized
among men is utterly detestable in God’s sight.
Ps 15:4 He despises a reprobate,
but honors the Lord’s loyal followers. He makes firm commitments and does not
renege on his promise.
Proverbs 10:9 The one who
conducts himself in integrity will live securely, but the one who behaves
perversely will be found out.
Psalm 41:12 As for me, you
uphold me because of my integrity; you allow me permanent access to your presence.
Proverbs 20:7 The righteous person behaves in integrity; blessed are
his children after him.
John 16:13 But when he, the
Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth. For he will not speak
on his own authority, but will speak whatever he hears, and will tell you what
is to come.
I John 1:8-9 If we say we do not
bear the guilt of sin, we are deceiving ourselves and the truth is not in us.
But if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous, forgiving us our sins
and cleansing us from all unrighteousness.
Proverbs 3:3-8 Do not let truth
and mercy leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of
your heart. Then you will find favor and
good understanding, in the sight of God and people. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do
not rely on your own understanding. Acknowledge him in all your ways, and he will
make your paths straight. Do not be wise
in your own estimation; fear the Lord and turn away from evil. This will bring healing to your body, and
refreshment to your inner self
Proverbs 28:6 A poor person who
walks in his integrity is better than one who is perverse in his ways even
though he is rich.
Proverbs 11:3 The integrity of
the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the unfaithful destroys them.
Proverbs 26:1 Vindicate me, O
Lord, for I have integrity, and I trust in the Lord without wavering.
Proverbs 25:21 May integrity and godliness protect me, for I rely on
you!
