The Power of a Praying Wife By Stormie Omartian

Inspires you to develop a deeper relationship with your husband by using prayer

It has 30 short chapters – a perfect challenge to read one a day for a month – each one a different topic encouraging wives to pray for their husbands. The title alone empowers wives, prompting them to take action in protecting their family! The writing style is very comprehensible, making it a very easy read. Stormie took 30 topics that are faced in marriage and provides a guided prayer for each one. She also includes “Power Tools” – awesome verses – that reinforce why we need to keep God in the center of our marriage, why prayer is an important part of that, why praying for husbands in specific areas is crucial and reminding us the promises in God’s Holy word.

Stormie is very open as she shares in the introduction, “I’ve experienced the degree of hopelessness that causes a person to give up on trying to do what’s right. I understand the torture of loneliness that leaves you longing for anyone who will look into your soul and see you.” She also adds, “Praying Scripture over your husband is powerful.” She gives personal accounts of how God has healed her marriage, as well as other couple’s testimonies that are very relate-able, encouraging HOPE. This book is great because it teaches you HOW to pray for your husband and how to pray for specific areas of his life.
