Friends – there are so many different areas of work to cover for your man. I’ve dedicated two chapters to it in my book Praying God’s Word for Your Husband. Since it’s the weekend, I’m keeping it short today. Pray for whatever aspect of your man’s work that applies – here is a simple prayer for his work.
Colossians 3:23
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters
Father, I pray that every decision my husband makes about his work is influenced by you. Lord, I pray that he would sense you presence at every turn – that he wouldn’t be weary of doing good, being honorable, and working with all his strength as if he were working for you.
would like to help one of you keep the prayer going by giving you my latest book, Praying God’s Word for Your Husband. Just let
me know in the comments below that you prayed for your man and we will choose one winner at random.

- 7 Days of Praying for Your Man: Day 6 Praying for His Work - June 15, 2012
I prayed for my man today! He is off work today and tomorrow, and desperately needs a new job. I pray that God leads him to search for job openings, and that God gives him the confidence and encouragement he needs to apply and pursue those openings.
I love these “7 days of praying for your man” emails!!! I prayed for my husband’s work, and this prayer is actually incredibly appropriate, as we have a big change that is about to happen with my husband’s work, and while most of it is not our choice, he does have some say in the matter. So I am praying this prayer fervently!!
Continuing to pray! Thanks for your blog – good stuff here, and we appreciate it!
Still praying!
Prayed for husband yesterday and today.
Still praying for him and praying that it continues to become a habit for me:)
Praying every day for him. This topic is always sensitive for me cuz my husband works in a VERY negativve environment and I don’t know if there is anything or anyone positive or Godly working with him – I continually pray this prayer hoping that someone will come it and become a positive influence at his job. Thanks
Praying for my husband. At a crossroads with work right now…
I prayed fo my man today and for his job..
I prayed for my man today! 🙂
I have been praying the prayer each day and then also texted it to my hubby as we have had a very stressful week. He needed lifted up totally and his attitude shows. HE found out he needs cornea transplant surgery in two weeks.
Thank you so much for this challenge. I’m lovin’ it!
Continuing to pray often throughout the day for my man. Thanks for your help!
Just yesterday at a prayer retreat, I listed one of my concerns as my husbands work and then it was the topic today. Have thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated your daily prayer guidance for my husband.
I am praying for my husband. His “job” is the ministry and when you are responsible for leading souls prayer is even more conveted. Since I have been praying more regularly for my husband and with a greater burden, our marriage has become even more romantic and stable.
Just about to leave for the weekend and before leaving went to open my email to check for your email so I could do the prayer before getting on my way, specially since he is working this weekend. A good Father’s Day present without him knowing I have been praying for him the last six days. 🙂
Praying for my husband today.
prayed for my hubby
I love that this helps me pray specifically for my man using Scripture. Praying for him as his work has him away from us right now. Thanks, Kathi!
I prayed for him today! He is in the midst of making a big decision about his job. This was perfect for him today!
Still praying for my husband. He’s self employed so I pray for his work often but not like your suggestions. Thanks so much!
So thankful for my husband and his new job! Praying he’ll be a testimony to others from day 1.
Thank you so much for this. I’m still learning how to pray and it helps having the guidance every morning.
Praying for my husband – thanks for your guidance
Praying diligently everyday for my husband!
Thank you for a great sample prayer. I continue to pray for my dear husband who works so hard every day of the week.
Praying for my husbands work life! Thanks for the great scripture to pray for him!
An especially important prayer for my hubby right now, as we discuss the next steps in his career. Thanks!
Great prayer.
I prayed.
thank you for all this encouragement! A good reminder to pray for our hubby is ALWAYS good.
I pray for hubby and his job whenever we drive by his work – which is at least once or twice a day. Praying for his boss and his coworkers too! you can never have too much prayer!
thanks!!!!
My husband has been looking for work for a long time. While we have been praying for just the right position for him, it is easy to lose faith. Thank you for the encouragement to keep on praying.
Thank you for this blog. With all my mom and volunteer duties my husband gets pushed to the bottom of the list. By praying for him each day, he is closer to the top 🙂
Kathi, thank you do much for starting this challenge! I’ve been praying for my hubby every day and – though I shouldn’t be – I’m amazed at the difference it’s making for both of us. Such a simple thing to do but I’m ashamed to say that I don’t always remember. God is faithful in the big and small!!!
I prayed for my hubby this morning!
Still praying!
Thank you for prompting us to pray specifically!
This couldnt have been more perfect. My husband has a very strong work ethic but in the army not everyone he works with does or appreciates it. He gets so weary of always doing good and never seeming to get anywhere.
