Prayer for Your Wife — 5 Scripture-Based Prayer Points
A husband who prays for his wife is doing the most Christlike thing a man can do — interceding as Christ intercedes for the church. These prayer points cover your wife in God's specific promises for her identity, strength, wisdom, and daily life.

“Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.”
Proverbs 31:30 (KJV)
Prayer Points
Father, I pray for my wife and declare Proverbs 31:30 over her — that she is a woman who fears You, and that such a woman shall be praised. Let her identity be rooted in who You say she is, not in the world's standards, and let her walk in the dignity and confidence of a daughter of the King of Kings, in Jesus' name.
Lord, I cover my wife in 1 Peter 3:4 — the unfading beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in Your sight. Protect her heart from every voice that would wound her sense of worth. Remind her continually that she is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14) and deeply loved by You, in Jesus' name.
Father, I pray Ephesians 3:16-17 over my wife — that out of Your glorious riches You strengthen her inner being with power through Your Spirit, and that Christ dwells in her heart through faith. Sustain her in every demand of daily life; let her not grow weary but be renewed day by day as 2 Corinthians 4:16 promises, in Jesus' name.
Holy Spirit, fill my wife with wisdom and discernment. Proverbs 14:1 says a wise woman builds her house — I pray that wisdom over every decision she makes for this family. Give her direction in her calling, peace in her relationships, and the boldness to pursue everything You have placed in her heart, in Jesus' name.
Lord, I bless my wife with favour — Psalm 5:12 declares You surround the righteous with favour as with a shield. Let that shield be over her today — in her workplace, her relationships, her health, and every door she approaches. May her life be a testimony of what a woman walking closely with God looks like, in Jesus' name, Amen.

How should a husband pray for his wife?
Pray for her by name and be specific. Pray Ephesians 3:16-19 over her spiritual strength. Pray Psalm 91 for her protection. Pray Proverbs 31:17 for her energy and purposefulness. The most Christlike thing a husband can do is intercede for his wife — Christ himself always lives to intercede (Hebrews 7:25), and a praying husband reflects that pattern.
What does Proverbs 31 say about a godly wife?
Proverbs 31:10-31 describes a woman of noble character — industrious, wise, compassionate, faithful, and strong. She is not defined by appearance but by character and the fear of God. Proverbs 31:30 summarises it: a woman who fears the LORD shall be praised. This passage is not a burden but an honour — it values women as capable, purposeful, and deeply seen by God.
