‘And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. ‘ 1 John 5:14(NLT)

Tip 6:

Keep a running prayer journal for 30 days in row.  You will be shocked that after 30 days you will have dozens of specific requests! And better than that, you will likely have many “Yes!” answers.

Tip 7:

Try not to write a general request in your Husband Prayer Notebook. Why not? Because how will you know if God answered it or not? 1 John 5:14 speaks of the specificity of prayers by urging us to ask anything according to God’s will. Be sure to align your requests within the boundaries of God’s overarching desires.

Tip 8:

Learn to ask specific questions of your husband to discover his wishes, like, “If you could get one to two key results this week, what would you want?” Or ask him questions about his desires or the family.

Tip 9:

On every Sunday afternoon for four weeks, read through your prayer journal. You will find much encouragement every time you do. 

Tip 10:

At the end of the 30 days, look down your long list and celebrate and thank God for all His “Yes!” and all His equally good “No!” answers. You will be amazed at how many times God came through for you. And you will never again wonder if prayer really works. You’ll have so much proof in your notebook you’ll never want to stop.

‘Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.’ Ephesians 6:18(NLT)

‘“When you pray, don’t babble on and on as the Gentiles do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again. ‘ Matthew 6:7(NLT)

Tip 3:

Every day when you pray, pray through your prayers quickly unless your heart tugs that you need to ask more fervently on one of them. Then simply tell God why that particular prayer request is so important to you. It will make a difference! Seek to surrender the answer fully to whatever answer God wishes to supply.

Tip 4:

When you are finished praying through your list, ask yourself one simple question: 

“What else do I sense my husband is wishing for?” Think for a few moments and you’ll be wonderfully surprised how the Lord will help you know what He wants you to pray for your husband. Then just number the next one in your list, pray for it, and go on with your day.

Tip 5:

How long should your prayers take?  Just a couple of minutes. Really? Yes. Just talk to God and make your requests known. Ask Him and don’t be shy or timid. You are doing exactly what He wants! He loves hearing from you. Keep in mind, Peter’s prayer as he was sinking beneath the waves was three words. God hears your heart. Ephesians 6:18 emphasizes praying frequently more so than lengthy. Let prayer be a regular part of your moments in life. That’s why having your list on your smart phone might be helpful.

‘I am praying to you because I know you will answer, O God. Bend down and listen as I pray.’ Psalms 17:6(NLT)

Tip 1:

Don’t allow yourself to be overwhelmed by so many approaches to prayer. Start with a couple ideas and watch what happens. Pick out two to three things from these tips and enjoy some small victories first. Couch your prayers in a confident trust as the psalmist did his.

Tip 2:

Buy a little notebook (or use your computer/smart device) that you keep confidential from everyone and start tracking God’s answers to your specific requests regarding your husband. The following is a method you might try as an example:. 

Please, God, help my husband to finalize his report for work and receive recognition for it. 7/1/17 Prayed first. Yes!  8/13/17 42 days, answered.

A. Number the first prayer and continue numbering every time you add another request.

B. Put the date next to it when you started praying it: 7/1/17.

C. When God answers with a “yes” or “no,” then write it on the right side of your request: (yes, no, shift in perspective)

D. Then put the date God answered your prayer: 8/13/17.

E. Estimate how many days you prayed until God answered: 42 days.

F. Put a star next to the number when you pray extra hard for it that day: **.

G. Then circle the number every time God answers with a “yes.” It will shock you how many “yesses” you receive! 

H. As you pray, add Scriptures God gives you which enforce or inform your prayer and what it is you are praying for, specifically or generally.
