Are you wanting to know how to pray for your future husband? Do you want to pray for him, but don’t know where to start? Are you wondering why you should pray for your future husband?

These are all great things to be wondering!

I believe that praying for our future husbands is super important. I explained why in the post 5 Reasons Why You Should Pray For Your Future Husband. So if you don’t know why you should pray for your future husband, definitely check that post out first, and then come back to this one :)

Right now, I want to discuss how we can pray for our future husbands. Let’s come up with some creative ways we can pray for him!

How to Pray for Your Future Husband:

Wondering how to pray for your future husband? No problem! Here are four simple and fun ways you can pray for your future husband.

How to Pray for Your Future Husband Method #1: Write Your Prayer in a Journal

{This the method I usually prefer.}

Get a journal/notebook and fill it with prayers specifically for your future husband. Write out Scripture to pray for him.

The reason why prayer journaling for your future husband is so great is that when you don’t have much time to pray, you can just look over an entry in the journal and repray a prayer.

Be sure to date the entries! This way you can look back over the prayers later and know exactly when you prayed those blessings over your future husband.

If you would like to see some examples of what this could look like, I recommend checking out the free “Praying For Your Future Husband eGuide.” In this eGuide, I wrote five sample prayers, all of which are based out of Scripture.

How to Pray for Your Future Husband Method #2: Hand Prayer

I’ve learned several different “hand prayers” throughout my life. You know, where each finger represents something and as you pray you look at your fingers to remind you to pray for certain aspects of life.

Why not use this method when you pray for your future husband? Then as you’re on the go, you can look down at your hands and quickly say a prayer for your future husband.

Here are some “finger prayers” I thought up, but fill free to tweak it as you desire :)

Thumb: Encouragement
A thumb up is taken as a sign of encouragement, so pray that God would bless your future husband and encourage him throughout the day.

Pointer finger: Pointing to God
Pray that God would shine through your future husband and he would point to God in everything he says and does.

Middle finger: Standing tall
The middle finger is the “tallest” finger, so pray that your future husband would stand tall and stand firm in his convictions.

Ring finger: Purity
Pray that God would help your future husband strive for purity in every aspect of his life.

Pinkie: Humility
Pray that your future husband would learn to be humble and to serve others.

How to Pray for Your Future Husband Method #3: Mason Jar Of Prayers

Write out different things to pray for your future husband on small slips of paper (one-word cues work fine. Example: Leadership). Then fold the slips of paper and stick them in a mason jar (or cup). Set the jar in a place where you’ll see it every day, and once a day pick a prayer request for your husband and pray for that one thing right then.

Then you can do one of two things: 1) Put the slip of paper back in the jar to have a possible repeat prayer or 2) set the piece of paper next to the jar until you run out of slips and then refill the jar all at once.

How to Pray for Your Future Husband Method #5: On Our Knees

Lastly, we should pray for our future husbands on our knees. The first three ways I shared are fun and quick and easy, but our prayers should not always be quick and easy. Sometimes we need to get uncomfortable before God. We should be passionately praying for our future husbands on our knees.

And there’s just something reverent about bowing our hearts before the Lord. It shows humility and gratitude.

I hope this post gave you some ideas and so now you know how to pray for your future husband :)

There are countless ways to pray, and there are no wrong ways or right ways to pray.

I hope these four ideas help you think of a way to pray for your future husband to which you can commit. We don’t have to do all four of these methods- we can do one or even none of the things on this list- after all, we can simply pray in our hearts and God will hear us.

However, no matter how you choose to pray, I hope you commit to pray for your future husband. You have no idea how it could bless him. <3

Next week I’ll share a list of specific things we can pray for our husbands, so be sure to check back for that.

Until then!
