Day 4: Praying for His Sexuality
Father, there is so much pressure today on my husband in this area. I pray that you would help
him to flee from sexual immorality. Every sin he would commit is outside the body, but if he commits sexual
immorality it is against his own body. Remind him that his body is the temple of Your Holy Spirit. I pray that he would glorify you with his
body. (I Cor 6:18-20)
Lord, you command him to “drink water from his own cistern, and
running water from his own well.” Please forgive me for my own bad attitudes
and thoughts and actions that may have hindered him in this. Forgive us for our past mistakes and sins,
and help us begin to love each other in our marriage as you have asked us
to. I pray that I would not use our love
as a punishment or bribe, but would be instead as a loving deer and a graceful
doe, satisfying him at all times and enrapturing him with my love. (Prov
5:15-19)
Increase my love for him, Lord, and help me in this area of our
life.
“Turn my eyes away from worthless things; preserve my life according to
your word.” Psalm 119:37
“Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before
you. Make level paths for your feet and take only ways that are firm. Do not
swerve to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.”
Proverbs 4:25-27
“A man’s ways are in full view of the Lord, and he examines all his
paths.”
Proverbs 5:21

I'm so thankful for these prayers Becky. It helps me to see examples of praying scripture. Also, it reminds me to be specific when praying for Nick.
Great! It helps guide my mind as well in my prayers too, so I don't get sidetracked. ;)
