Romans 12:2

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Praying For My Man

I really think a BIG BIG part of my role as a wife,is to pray for my man.
 I believe this is the call of every wife.
  When I learned to pray for my man, I mean really pray, not just pray that he would have enough work, or that the Lord would keep him safe or that he would behave like a perfect husband or those kinds things, but to pray for his heart, it became a game changer.

Sadly, even knowing this, I get lazy at times.
 But, I DO KNOW THAT IT IS KEY to the health for our entire family.


You think about it, as wives, we have more insight into our man's lives than anyone else on earth, and if we neglect to pray for them, we  have missed our biggest mission.

The men are the spiritual leaders of our homes and we MUST bring them before the Lord and pray for them even more than we pray for our kids or anyone else. If we have a man with a heart for God, He will lead the family well.
 We must pray with the insight and the passion that the Lord has given us into their lives and their hearts.

Here's my TESTIMONY:

My man has had A LOT on his plate lately. 

 A LOT!

Today was a day that my wifely heart needed to really pray for him, but I was out of energy to do so. 
 I was tapped out and as  I prayed for him I felt a bit overwhelmed by it all.
I knew I needed to reach out to a couple of my man's men. 

*Charlie has been blessed ABUNDANTLY with brothers. 
 He has no family brothers ( other than brother in laws), but buddies that are closer than brothers.*

 I put out a battle cry (prayer request) to a few of these guys that are godly men, and they are like battle buddies to him.  

  These guys are loyal to the very end and will always point my man in the right WAY and they know how to get a hold of God.

They responded immediately and got their game on!
PRAYERS AND ENCOURAGEMENT!!!!

AND THEN GOD DID WHAT HE DOES BEST!!!!
HE WENT EVEN A STEP ABOVE AND BEYOND ANYTHING I COULD THINK TO ASK OR PRAY FOR!!!


As only our God can do, He also sent, to our house one of the most amazing prayer warriors I have ever known.
  Did you hear that ???? 
 On the day that I am too tapped out to pray much,
unexpectely and without  solicitation, God sent TUCKER, ya Ugandan Tucker, to our house on  other ministry business.

 Tucker, our friend who has the most amazing prayer life I have EVER witnessed.



As Tucker was in his pickup leaving today, he rolled his window down and asked how his brother Charlie is doing, because Charlie is working out of town for the day and so he didn't get to see him.

I felt I needed to be honest and told him that Charlie could use some extra prayers.
  I gave him a very brief download of some things on Charlie's heart.
Tucker was in his pickup ready to head to his next mission and sticks his hand out the window and prayed right then and there like I have never heard anyone pray for my man. 

 He had insight and love and words that could only come from the
 Holy Spirit.  

I already know that my man is blessed by these prayers because I am blown away by the goodness of God once again.  
Here's the best part of the whole thing, Charlie is totally out of any cell range today, and so the Lord was moving on his behalf without him even knowing about it.
I am as blessed by the prayers and the encouragement that God has sent our way on behalf of Charlie and I know that he is
 COVERED by the LOVE AND BLESSING of GOD!!!!!
