• Tuesday, June 23, 2009 - Day 23: His Walk

MY THOUGHTS on Stormie OMartian's "The Power of a Praying Wife"
Chapter 23: HIS WALK

With so much weighing on his walk and which path he will choose on a daily basis, we need to be praying for our husbands!  There are many aspects of their walk to be praying for as well; moral correctness (Psalm 84:11), to walk without fault (Proverbs 28:18), to have godly advisors (Psalm 1:1), in obedience (Psalm 128:1), with people of wisdom (Proverbs 13:20), and with itegrity (Proverbs 10:9) (p.164).

A man's walk is the way he journey through life --- his direction, his focus, the steps he takes.  Every day he chooses a path.  One path will take him forward.  All others will take him back.  The way he walks affects every aspect of his being --- how he relates to other people, how he treats his family, how people view him, even how he looks.   -Stormie OMartian (p.152)
We need to be praying for each individual thing for our husband to make sure all parts of his walk are covered.  If there is something "missing" in his life (a godly advisor/mentor for example), pray until it is answered.  We certainly don't want our husband to "stumble" while he's on the path God has for him.  If our husbands are seeking God's path for them, it will require much of him.  It doesn't matter if his "career" is in ministry or not... if he is a Christ follower, then God will ask him to share his story... his faith... and his love for Him.
And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"  Romans 10:15 (New International Version)
Pray for your husband to walk in the Lord's ways... that he will bring the great news of Jesus to all he encounters, and if he is yet to make that commitment, continually pray for his path to have those who are Christ followers come in touch with him as they follow the path God has laid out for them!

Dear Heavenly Father,  Direct my husband's feet as he walks on the path You have laid out for him.  I pray that in all areas of his walk, that You would fill in any gaps that remain so his walk will be complete and lacking nothing.  With so many stumbling in their walk, I ask that You protect my husband's feet and heart so he will be able to walk with integrity and wisdom.  I pray for godly influences in his life that will help him when he stumbles so he will not fall into any kind of temptation or demise.  I pray for protection over his feet as he brings Your word to those in need... may he walk in confidence that comes from knowing You Lord and boldness because of the faith He has in You.  In Jesus' name, Amen.

Your ADULT Child(ren)

I'M "JUST" A MOM...
and a woman seeking the Lord's Will (daily), a wife (striving to keep the romance alive), a "Smamma" (Step- mother) of one and a homeschooling mom of seven (I was never going to have children), who starts every day over (after messing SOME thing up the day before), knowing God's grace is overflowing (just like my laundry), and so thankful He's blessed me more than I'll ever deserve.
