To everything there is a time and a season for every purpose under heaven… Ecclesiastes 3:1
Okay ladies, we are waiting for a “man of God” and while we are waiting for this man and preparing ourselves for him, he is “without a helpmeet” which means there is a HUGE void in his life. He is fully aware of this void and maybe even asks God often to show him who this “helpmeet” is. He believes that God has prepared for him a “wife”, someone to work alongside him all the days of his life. He is expectant for her to enter into his life and to help share in the load that he is carrying. At times he feels desperate for the support of this woman and yet, he has not yet identified her. Still, he NEEDS her.
He has a burden, a burden that God has placed on his heart. He has a vision; one that involves a wife and maybe even a family. He has a work load one that he has come to realize is far too heavy for him to carry alone. And he deeply desires, not just a woman, not just a mate, but a “wife”, a “helpmeet”, someone who can sincerely and with all diligence share in the load he is currently bearing alone.
He knows of his weakness without her and he is fully aware of the deep necessity of her presence in his life and yet, he waits. He’s looking, maybe even dating but he is waiting for a woman who “seems right for his future”. He is waiting on a “wife”, a wife that will complement and complete him in his journey. He gets it, “it is not good for man to be alone”.
--He too has insecurities, even though he doesn’t admit them or even show much indication that they exist.
--He needs wisdom in all his daily decisions because one decision can change the course of his life for good or for bad.
--He has so much pulling on him. He needs God’s help to focus on the right thing, at the right time. He needs clarity as to what to eliminate along the way, those things which are not beneficial to his future.
--He needs strength to face all the battles of the day and not to give up.
--He needs his relationships to be aligned in such a way that he does not end up in compromising situations.
--He needs freedom from his past and maybe some things that are weighing heavy on his heart and mind that he has no ability to change. He is sorry.
--He has financial, emotional, and sexual needs that are not being met right now. ---He needs God’s strength to endure.
--He is human and sometimes questions himself. He needs added confidence when he begins to question everything and courage to take those additional steps that seem so impossible.
--He needs a revelation of God’s power in his life and the authority and dominion that God has called him to walk in and given to him.
With this, he will be able to face every battle, obstacle and challenge with resoluteness that he CAN take the victory. With God’s favor, and his steps ordered, his hands will be active in the things that are already stamped with God’s approval. God’s favor will rest on his life and he will be more effective and successful in all he does. Knowing that it is God who planted the seed of this man in his mother’s womb and mapped out an intricate plan for his life, we understand that God alone can complete what HE began in his life.
With this perspective, we lift this man up before God.

Instead of just praying "Lord bring me a husband"...pray FOR that husband and all that he will face today. If he is pursuing God's purpose for his life, he is in a fight for his destiny! If he is not pursuing God's purpose, your prayers still have the power to influence his life. They really do.
God is preparing you for marriage and you begin to notice that in your expectation you wake up thinking about where "he" is, what "he" is doing, "how" he is doing. Make your requests to God on his behalf- not based on your "own" need/s but based on love for another human being that will one day be a significant part of your life. This man coming to you is "worth" your time to pray for him. You are sowing seed into his life in advance. It will not return void.
Whether you believe there is "one" right man or that it is just "someone", an all knowing God will take your requests and rightly place them where "He" knows they belong. PRAY, and KNOW that your prayers have power! It doesn't even matter if we know who "he" is. GOD KNOWS! He will direct that prayer accordingly! Faith!
One of our readers put it so well when she said, "...Many of them are still wrestling with issues and need us to stand in the gap & intercede on their behalf even the ones on track still benefit from intercessory prayer..." ~Jamillah Brown~
In fact they will ALWAYS need our prayers... and these men NEED the prayers of FAITH on their behalf. We need to believe God for what "we" can see for these men; Valor, Strength, Authority, Dominion, Courage, Single-Mindedness, Confidence, Integrity, Men of vision, Men of purpose, Men whose hearts have been captivated by God to such a degree that they boldly approach HIM for their needs, desires and hopes, Mighty men of valor, Men who can hear God and who will follow, Men who will cover their homes, Men who have a heart for God and who "seek" after Him. These are the men GOD is raising up! Our prayers are a force behind them...
And as we pray, the man we are waiting on is being STRENGTHENED and FORTIFIED by our faith on his behalf. And he is being prepared specially as the head of “our” home.

PRAYER FOR A FUTURE HUSBAND
By Melissa Rich
Father in the Name of Jesus, COVER your son as he pursues Your plans for him.
IMPART WISDOM as he explores all his options and waits on You.
GIVE HIM CLARITY & RESOLUTENESS when it comes time to decide.
NARROW HIS FOCUS to that which involves only what You have on the agenda.
STRENGTHEN HIM for the journey.
ORDER HIS STEPS according to Your Word.
ALIGN HIS RELATIONSHIPS to accommodate Your plan for his life.
REMOVE ANY OLD MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL BURDENS that seek to hold him back.
PRESERVE HIS LIFE AND HIS HEART for all that You have fashioned him for.
PROVIDE FOR EVERY NEED that is before him.
FULFILL EVERY DESIRE that You have placed in him.
FILL HIM WITH CONFIDENCE TO GO FORTH and take the land which You have shown him.
ENDUE HIM WITH POWER & AUTHORITY to walk in all that You have called him to be and to do.
LET YOUR FAVOR REST ON HIM, MULTIPLY ALL HE PUTS HIS HAND TO.
May his heart be FIXED ON YOUR PURPOSES all the days of his life.
COMPLETE that which YOU started in him.
ALPHA & OMEGA, BEGINNING & END, HAVE YOUR WAY IN HIS LIFE. GLORIFY YOURSELF THROUGH THIS, YOUR SON. May he hear Your voice in the end saying, "WELL DONE MY GOOD AND FAITHFUL SERVANT. ENTER NOW INTO YOUR REST."
BLESS HIM LORD, IN ALL THE WAYS THAT YOU ALONE CAN. BLESS HIM IN EVERY WAY and KEEP YOUR SON ALL THE DAYS OF HIS LIFE. Amen!
