The Power of a Praying Wife by Stormie Omartian
Gemma recommended this book to me and altho im still reading it at the minute i find it very encouraging and I think we could all learn alot from it, especially you married women. Its about praying for our husbands and not trying to change them ourselves but leaning on god and letting him change us and then them so that we can have marriages built upon gods word, and marriages that glorify him. A few verses that stuck out so far in it, romans 15 v 5 ( may the god of patience and comfort grant us to be like-minded toward one another, according to christ jesus. Matt 7 v 7-8 ( ask and it will be given to you: seek, and you will find: knock, and it will be opened to you. for everyone who asks recieves, and who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened.) proverbs 24 v 3-4 ( through wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is established; by knowledge the rooms are filled with all precious and pleasant riches.)

Wonderful Barbara. I plan to use this as a template for my prayer life forever, and urge others to do the same. We will be able to testify to how we have seen God work in our husbands, partly because of our praying. I know our husbands will be blessed by our prayerful attitudes. And it's amazing how it is usually my attitude and actions that need to change. Praise God He is changing us to be more like His Son. I haven't read 'the power of the praying woman' but Im sure it would be of help in any singles prayer life. Pray specifically people!
