Day 1 – Pray For A Devout Man Of God

Pray for a future husband who loves God wholeheartedly. A God-fearing man is someone who immerses himself in the Word of God and strives to live according to His commandments. He is someone who respects the Word of God as truth absolute and unchanging. This kind of man will approach marriage with the principles laid out by God, honoring His instructions on how to love and cherish his wife.

As a Christian woman, it is essential to seek a husband whose faith is deeply rooted in God. A devout man of God will not only strengthen your relationship with the Lord but also lead your household with wisdom and integrity. Some may say that as long as you have a husband, his faith shouldn’t matter but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

When you marry a devout man of God, you are joining with someone whose love is anchored in God’s word and whose delight is in the law of the Lord (Psalm 1:2). This means his decisions, actions, and way of life are guided by God’s will, not personal desires or worldly pressures.

A husband like this prioritizes obedience to God, which provides a strong foundation for a lasting marriage. His first instinct is to seek God’s direction, which ensures that your marriage is grounded in divine wisdom, patience, and love.

On this first day of your fast, pray for your future husband to be a devout man of God. Pray that he is a man who delights in the law of the Lord and meditates on it day and night. Pray that he seeks first the kingdom of God (Matthew 6:33) and stands firm in faith, even in difficult times.

It is far better to be with a man who lives by the timeless standards of God’s Word than with one swayed by the fleeting and often flawed ways of the world. Ask God to shape him into a man who relies on God for guidance and direction so that his steps are established by the Lord (Psalm 37:23). Pray for a partner whose standards and actions are rooted in Scripture and not dictated by personal whims or societal norms.

Pray for a husband who will treat you as the Bible commands: with kindness, patience, unconditional love, care, grace, favor, forgiveness, and trust. A God-fearing man will value the sanctity of marriage and see his role as a husband as a sacred duty to reflect Christ’s love.

Remember, a husband who walks with God will lead with love, patience, and wisdom. Pray with faith, knowing that God is preparing both of you for each other.

Bible verses to meditate on

Psalm 1:1-2

Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Matthew 6:33

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.

Psalm 37:23-24

The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the Lord upholdeth him with his hand.

1 Corinthians 16:13

Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.

Prayers

Prayer for strength for the 7-day fast

Dear God,
Today, I humbly come before Your presence to pray for my future husband. Father, I have committed to a 7-day fast, and I ask for Your strength to sustain me throughout this journey. I am willing to set aside food, knowing that my spirit is willing, but my flesh is weak.
Lord, I pray that You strengthen me from within. Fill me with the nourishment of Your Holy Spirit so that I will not hunger or thirst but be fully satisfied by Your presence.
Help me to focus on You, Lord, and not on the things I’ve set aside. Let my heart and mind be fixed on Your will and Your promises. 
Thank You, Father, for hearing my prayer.
In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray. 
Amen.

Prayer for the Holy Spirit

Almighty Father,
On this day, I come before You in humility and faith. I pray for the presence and power of the Holy Spirit in my life and in this moment of prayer.
Father, I ask that You send down Your Holy Spirit to guide, strengthen, and carry my prayers directly to You. I do not want any force, scheme, or prince of darkness to block, hinder, or delay my prayers from reaching Your throne of grace.
Lord, let Your Holy Spirit be my divine messenger, delivering every word of my heart directly to You. Just as a courier faithfully delivers a letter to its destination, let the Holy Spirit faithfully bring my prayers before You.
I do not want my fast to be in vain, Lord. So I ask that You fill my space with Your Holy Spirit’s presence. Let Your Spirit dwell with me, protect me, and strengthen me as I seek You wholeheartedly.
Thank You, Father, for hearing my prayer. I believe You are near.
In Jesus’ mighty name, I pray,
Amen.

Prayer for a devout man of God

Almighty Father,
On this first day of my fast, I lift up my heart to You in prayer for a future husband who is rooted in faith. Lord, I pray for a man who is truly a devout man of God, one who will draw me closer to You, not farther away. I do not want to be entangled with a man who distances me from Your presence.

Father, I ask for a man whose delight is in You, a man who seeks first Your kingdom and righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Let him be someone who encourages me in my faith journey, someone who stands firm in faith no matter what trials life may bring. I pray for a man who trusts in Your faithfulness and believes in Your power to provide.

Shape him, Lord, into a man who relies solely on Your guidance and direction, not on his own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). Let him be a man who walks in obedience to You and seeks Your will above his own desires. Father, I pray for a man who will lead our home to Christ and in Christ, a leader, protector, and man of integrity.

Thank You, dear God, for hearing my prayer. I trust that in Your perfect timing, You will unite me with the man You have prepared for me.
Amen.

Pray that he is a man who loves God

Dear Lord,
Today, I come before You to ask for the man You have chosen for me. I pray for a man who loves and cherishes You above all else. One who lives according to Your Word and walks in Your ways. Let him be a man whose life is guided by Your standards and not the ways of the world.

Lord, send me a man who has been saved by Your grace. Aman who knows the power of redemption and walks in it daily. I ask for a husband with a promising future, someone who will uplift me and not bring me down. Let him be a man who adds to my life, not one who subtracts from it.

I pray for a husband who is in love with You, Lord. Let him be a faithful man with a heart that rejects adultery. Let him walk on the straight path, never straying from Your truth. Send me a man who communicates with You in prayer and seeks counsel from You in all things.

Father, I ask for a man who keeps a peaceful home, one who resolves conflict with love, patience, and understanding. Let him be a man full of wisdom, with a heart that seeks to please You in every season of life. May he strive for righteousness and bring honor, nobility, and dignity to our family name.

I place this request in Your hands, trusting in Your perfect plan for my life. Thank You, Lord, for hearing my prayer.
Amen.
