* I don’t add the actual bible verses because I personally like different Bible translations and highly believe when praying to look up the verse in your own bibles so that you can bookmark it or highlight as a reminder of what you are praying for. Also these prayers are just templates you can pray them exactly as they are or adjust and reword to what God is calling you to pray over your husband. May this post be of inspiration as you cover your husband in prayer.
