The one person I forget to pray for is my husband and I’m finding out I’m not alone. It seems like our spouses take a back seat in a lot of things, our prayer life included. Because of that, I was eager to read Praying for Your Husband from Head to Toe: A Daily Guide to Scripture-Based Prayer by Sharon Jaynes. The book is set up with some discussion about prayer in the beginning, thirty days of prayer devotionals, and at the very end, prayers for special circumstances, like for a husband that hasn’t been saved or who needs to be healed.
The peculiar thing about this book is the method the author goes about praying for husbands from head to toe. She literally prays for them from head to toe. Starting at the head and going to the feet, each body part represents an aspect of the husband’s life, and each day and for each body part, there is a Bible verse and a prayer to pray.
I have to admit, my reaction to this was that it was kind of hokey and a little tedious. I even felt silly at times and my husband’s reaction to the concept was, "That is the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard." In a way, though, this is the greatest strength of the book. Because our spouse is usually the last person we remember to pray for, this book’s tedium and thoroughness forces the reader to methodically pray for their husband. You can’t get by with a quick two second prayer that your husband has a good day at work. You have to meditate on your husband and how scripture applies to him. You are forced to pray about things you may never think of to pray for him about. In the end, you walk away feeling like you have prayed for your spouse in a way that a wife should pray for her husband.
“In this much-needed book, Sharon Jaynes gives reader the whys, whats. And how-tos of praying for a husband.” Elizabeth George, Author of A Woman After God’s Own Heart
”As a wife, you have been given the privilege of serving as a mighty prayer warrior for your husband. Yet sometimes, even when poised with the best of intentions, you may find the task overwhelming. You wonder: What should I pray? How should I pray? What prayers does he need right now?
In Praying for Your Husband from Head to Toe, Sharon Jaynes maps out sixteen landmarks to help you consistently and effectively cover your husband in prayer. From his mind and the thoughts he thinks, to his eyes and the images he sees, all the way down to his feet and the path he takes, Sharon teaches you how to pray for your husband in ways that are powerful, practical, and life-changing.”
I was so pleased to be able to review this book. It was truly touched by it. Before now, I guess that I hadn’t really given it too much thought… praying for my husband. Sure, I pray for him each day, but it wasn’t until I started reading this book that it struck me about how I should be praying for him. This book really opened my eyes to the struggles that our husbands encounter each day.
The author, Sharon Jaynes, has created for us a 30-day prayer and scripture guide to equip us to develop a habit of purposeful prayer for our husbands… prayers for all that he may encounter during his day. The book consists of two main parts – the power of prayers and the landmarks of prayer and the second part consisting of the 30 days’ of prayers for your husband from head to toe.
In addition, the author has added 3 great chapters in the Appendix.
