Day 4: God, You are Our Rescuer - Take my husband's Anxieties!!!

God's Word tells us: "Do not worry about anything; instead PRAY about everything." Philippians 4:6  It also tells us "do not be anxious for nothing"! But we all deal with worry and anxieties.  And have you ever noticed that if we, as wives, become worried or anxious, we actually INCREASE these very things in our husbands? Think about it! God, has specifically called the husband to be the provider in the home, and when things get hard, the husband internalizes this on himself.  But when we as wives stress, worry, become anxious and verbalize this... we actually make it that much harder on our husbands and can defeat them more than they already are.   Instead we need to do what the Word of God says, we need to PRAY - get on our knees and tell it all to God, but let me give you a prayer to say over the anxious husband completely lined in Scripture to bring peace from God....


Praise
God is our Rescuer!!! Read Psalm 40:17, Psalm 50:15, Psalm 62:1-2, Psalm 91:1-4, Psalm 91:7-11, Proverbs 20:22 and Daniel 6:27.


Confession
This a time of examining our hearts before the Lord - confess anything that needs to be covered in the blood of Jesus, to not hinder your prayer.


Thanksgiving
Take this time to thank God for answered prayer or for what He is doing in your life, your husband's life, your marriage, or your family.


Intercession
Pray the below by inserting your husband's name in the blank spaces...


Psalm 94:19
Lord, in the multitude of ___________'s (anxious) thoughts within him, we pray that Your comforts would bring cheer and delight to his soul.  When _______ becomes ansious during his day, we pray he would not allow it to upset him but rather that he would discipline himself to quickly turn to You casting his care, stress and worries unto You for You care for him.


Philippians 4:6-7
Father I ask in Jesus name that __________ would not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make his wants know to You.  When he does, You promise to grant to ___________ peace (that tranquil state of soul peace) which transcends all understanding shall mount guard over __________'s heart and mind in Christ Jesus.  I pray the peace of Christ (of untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with ___________ always.


Psalm 34:6
Lord I pray when _________ is broken, that he would cry out to You, as he does, You promise to hear from heaven and save _______ out of all his troubles.  Thank You dear Jesus that You are __________'s Deliverer when he is in the midst of trouble, in the might name of Jesus, Amen.


"And whatever you ask for in prayer, having faith
and believing, you will receive."
Matthew 21:22
