Stretch my faith in the midst of the wait, just as You did with Your disciples when encountering a storm at sea ( Matthew 8:23-27). I choose to hold unswervingly to the hope that I profess ( Hebrews 10:23). Deepen my understanding, and give me a greater knowledge of what You are doing in my life. I choose to be faithful in prayer ( Colossians 4:2). I choose to trust you, and I refuse to believe the lies of the enemy. Help me not to take matters into my own hands. I don’t want to live by feelings but by faith. ![]() Help me to be patient in prayer, not give up, and trust You even during moments when I feel negative emotions. Help me to pray by faith consistently and long-term, to believe, wait, and then move forward in Your timing. Reveal what is in my heart, and make me ready to handle the answer in the right way when it comes. Lord, I thank You that You will answer my prayers in Your perfect timing. ~ Prayer from The One Thing You Need Most in a Future Husband I love You and am so grateful for Your love for me. Help me to be faithful and productive in this season. Please give me patience as I wait for my future husband. Make me a woman who fears You and loves You with all that I am. And I ask that You make me that kind of woman. Help me to see the priceless value in a man who does. Help me to desperately long for a man who fears the Lord. Please help me to align my perspective toward guys with Yours. I am so thankful that You truly do have the answers to lasting love. I am so grateful for Your love and kindness in my life. Will you trust that the One who loves you more than any other knows exactly what he's doing with your life? He is loving. But I do know this: his “no” often means "I'm protecting you from what you don't yet see" or "I have something far better for you than you have thought to ask for." If you’ve prayed for a husband and God hasn’t answered, I don’t know why he has chosen to answer - or not answer - in that way. ![]() So why would he ever give us our heart’s desire if it would result in our relegating him to second place? Why would he give us the one thing (or person) that might keep us from clinging to him? God knows what it is that will keep us clinging to him. When he becomes our all-in-all, we will have no need to look for anything or anyone else to complete us. When he becomes our First Love, we will be satisfied with only that love. And when God becomes all we want, then we have all we want. So a husband is not a litmus test as to whether or not you are putting God first in your life.Īfter all, look at all the godless women who have husbands….or have had several!! But I will say this: “Love Jesus with all your heart, soul and mind and tell him if he is all you ever have, that will be enough.” That does something to your heart - and to His. I know some of you have been seeking God for years. In years past, I found myself telling women: “Seek God first and he’ll bring you a man.” But I have also seen that sometimes that doesn’t necessarily happen. No good thing will he withhold from those that walk uprightly.īut, honestly, there are no magic verses or biblical formulas or even promises that God will give every woman a husband. Verses like Jeremiah 29:11: 'For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope.’ And verses like Psalm 37:4: Delight yourself in the Lord And He will give you the desires of your heart. Or, Psalm 84:11 - the verse I personally claimed for my husband: The Lord God is a Sun and shield. If you’re like me, you’ve grown up on verses we tend to think are promises that God will give us whatever we ask for. Listen to God's Word When Seeking a Husband And it is definitely one of the most difficult questions for me to answer. It is likely the biggest area of frustration for a large percentage of my readers. ![]() “When will God give me a husband?” It’s probably the one question I hear women ask more than any other.
