40 Days of Prayer for your Future Husband.... Day 11
Accountability
None of us can easily walk through the Christian life alone. We all need friends and people to hold us accountable. Whether we want to admit it or not, we all need people in our lives who will call out our sin in love, who will help us pray for situations in our lives, who will study the word of God with us, and who will walk this journey with us. It is no different in the life of a man. Men need other godly men to encourage and hold them accountable. This is an area that you can pray for specifically that your future husband would find godly men to be a source of wisdom, encouragement, and accountability in his life.
Heavenly Father-
I pray that if the man I will one day love doesn't already have a group of men around him for encouragement and accountability, Father I pray that you would surround him with men who can help him grow. Father I pray that you would ground him in a bible believing church, who seeks to glorify you in all that they do, and will teach the your word. Father I pray that you would give my future husband, a man in his life to mentor him, someone from whom he can seek godly council, someone who knows the scriptures and can help him study and grow through the word and prayer. Someone who can disciple him. Father I pray that this man would hold him accountable in love and would call out sin in his life, and not allow him to live in sin. I pray that this man would help my future husband move forward in being more Christlike as that is the ultimate goal. Father I pray you would give him men in his life who he can pour into and minister to. Father I pray that these men who are spiritually younger than him can receive so much from him, and that their walks with you would grow as he mentors them. Father I also pray that you would send a man into his life who would be an encouragement to him. Father someone who would love on him and be an ear to listen when times get hard. Someone who would encourage him to get up and keep moving on the journey of his Christian walk and would pray for him daily. Father I pray most of all that you would send men into his life that he can "do life" with . I pray that as he builds friendships and relationships with godly men that they would sharpen each other through encouragement and accountability. Father I thank you that I know you are going to send these men into his life, and I thank you for the impact I know they will have on him.
In Jesus Name
Amen.
