~ 6 Way to Help Him Be the Spiritual Leader of Your Home ~ * Encourage him to be the spiritual leader at home. When he leads be ready to follow. * Pray God's Word over him daily. Pray over every area of his life. * Encourage him to find an accountability partner, besides yourself, a trusted and spiritual male friend. One that he can be transparent with and one who shares his same beliefs in God, family and church. * Help him make good use of his time. Time is critical to sustaining a spiritual walk. A husband's schedule is often hectic, long, and stressful. * Maintain a clean and organized home. Try your best to make the atmosphere run smoothly and peacefully. Set aside a place in the home for him to be able to study and read the word of God. * Acknowledge his efforts around the house, do not nag him daily.

  for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the more gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power of Christ (the Messiah) may rest (yes, may pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me!

  ~ All About Me ~Marriage alone can be difficult, but when we choose daily to love as God loves and to grace our spouse the way God graces us. Not only will your marriage be beautiful, but you will find yourself captured and transformed by God's Amazing Grace. You will see with new eyes, speak with new words and love on a much deeper level. Won't you choose this day to pray and speak God's life-changing word over your beloved spouse? I promise, you will NEVER be the same, as an individual, nor as a couple. Grace is waiting will you allow it to capture your heart?  Just a Thought...."The Value of Life does not depend on the place we occupy. It depends upon the way we occupy that place." ~~~St. Therese of Lisieux  ~My Ministries: The Father's Heart~in all that they do. To see themselves as completely His and designed uniquely by Him for His purposes. See my profile below: View my profile~Praying for My Husband Daily~ A valued treasure I have learned as a wife, is to love my beloved husband unconditionally, full of grace. I also have to thank Pamela Hines for her wonderful book: A Wife's Prayer. She has taught me so much about the importance of praying and speaking the Word over my husband. I have learned that instead of nagging and complaining to my husband about those qualities or situations that annoy me, I take them to God in prayer. It has caused me to search and to know the scriptures. You see, when I am faced with a difficulty in my marriage now. Here is what God has taught me to do: *I get on my knees before the Lord. *I take it to Him in prayer. *I ask Him to reveal any selfish way in me. To remove it and to show me His will in the matter. *I ask Him for a word to stand on. *I find any scriptures that pertains to the matter and I place my husbands name in the Word and I speak life into that situation.*Then I love him with grace and let go and let God  Ladies, I promise! If you choose each day to wake up and to walk in love and grace, to honor and respect him no matter what! YOU WILL SEE CHANGE. You will find yourself seeing your beloved husband through the eyes of our Lord Jesus. You will find yourself not being selfish, but selfless. You will find that you speak to him with much more love, you enjoy and delight in picking up after him and doing for him. You will find that you want to please him in all that you do. It caused me to fall in love with my husband all over again. Not to mention my love for God has gotten even deeper, which amazed me, because I adore Him with all my heart. Most importantly, it will causes your husband to take delight in you and to trust you with his heart, completely! My husband tells me all the time he feels secure and trust me with his heart. That statement alone is all I long to hear. We represent the church. One day we will lay a crown at the feet of Jesus. Our life allows us to fill that crown with jewels that represent what we did here on earth. Today, I am a precious crown on my husbands head. What jewels have I placed in his crown? What do I as a crown, say when others see my husband? Do I bring shame or honor to him? When I am seen do others admire our marriage? Or are they saying to themselves, "I am glad she isn't my wife!"  Proverbs 31:11 says, "The heart of her husband trust in her confidently and relies on and believes in her securely, so that he has not lack of [honest] gain or need of [dishonest] spoil. Does my husband trust me? The word also says, "She comforts, encourages, and does him only good as long has there is life with in her." Do I do this? The word says, "Her husband is KNOWN in the city gates, when he sets among the elders." How is he know? Ladies, we have a great influence over our men. Let us influence them to be more like Christ. Let us begin to speak the word over them and see them with God's eyes. You will be so glad you did.
