ANGRY WIFE = Weak prayer life
😡+👰♀️=😭🙏🙇♀️
As a wife, the sooner you can admit you need Gods help, the less fake it will be. Nobody got anywhere pretending or trying to have a perfect marriage. You might go on amazing dates, but there won't be depth, dependence on God or unity when times get hard. It's time to be honest, so let's have an honest evaluation, shall we?
🙏 Don’t be fake, it’s time to deal with any anger you have with your spouse in prayer and turn it from anger to prayer!
God opposes the proud but shows grace to the humble. Quit lying about it cause God knows it’s there and the Holy Spirit is my witness 🤦♀️
🙏 God is calling the wives to pray, not counsel or tell your husband what to do! God never commanded the wife
To teach her husband her ways…he said submit. Get under rank and if you believe he’s wrong pray and serve your spouse like you mean it
🙏God is challenging you as a wife to get on your knees and humble yourself in prayer and if you still know all the answers, or don't believe God wants to help you the truth is you are still stuck in pride. Don't come to God half heartedly, but come to God knowing there are things even you cannot fix.
🙏Every space that makes you angry about your husband, use it to wrestle it out with God. He will take your anger and start to transform it into true prayer if you will let him. Get your Bible out and find scriptures to pray over your husband
🙏Pray against his laziness and yours. Complaining about it to him won't open his eyes, but prayer will. It's a spiritual battle and God can give him strength and you the encouraging words to speak if you will just pray
Proverbs 6 “Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!7 It has no commander, no overseer or ruler,8 yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest.”
🙏Pray for Gods leading over your spouse
Instead of trying to lead.God never wanted you to lead and just because he may not be does not mean you take the front seat. Pray for his leadership and even though you might not see it, surrender and continue to trust God
"For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior." Ephesians 5:23
🙏Pray for you to have sincere love for him.
Don't try in your own strength. Real love comes from God. You can do everything for your husband and still be left dry and empty but when you love out of Gods sincere love, you won't be easily depleted and you will even be strengthened when your spouses love isn't reciprocated.
Romans 12:“Be sincere in your love for others. Hate everything that is evil and hold tight to everything that is good. Love each other as brothers and sisters and honor others more than you do yourself.”
🙏Pray for areas of immaturity and lack and prophesy that your husband will grow and succeed in everything God has called him to do.
Ephesians 3 17 “so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,”
*If you are reading this and you ain’t married yet, pray for your spouse, but do not give your heart away til your wedding day. All the way down the aisle. Don’t awaken love before it’s time. Pray and prepare, take notes and intercede from a place of a pure heart.
🙏I’m not praying for your husband, hunny! You married him and it’s time for YOU to step up the plate and grab a bat and smack satan down with prayer ! Go now ! Bear one another’s burdens, but carry your own load
Galatians 6
