PEWAndrew Case has produced another book giving guidance to praying the Scriptures for our spouses. His first book was for men to pray for their wives; this one is for wives to pray for their husbands. Unlike some other similar books, this one is saturated with Bible and sound biblical theology, along with lots of good sidebar quotes about the power and purpose of prayer.

Here are a few blurbs:

“Of all the things a wife can do for her husband, of all the many ways she can show her support, nothing tops the prayers she offers up before the Throne. And it’s the wise wife who, when she prays, recognizes how her marriage—even her own life—is being strengthened and deepened. God sees when women kneel in prayer for their husbands, and Prayers of an Excellent Wife provides the reader with all the scriptural principles and language needed to cover a man with powerful intercession—prayers so effective, they’ll resonate throughout his life.”

“Charles Spurgeon said we can do our husband ‘no truer kindness in the world’ than to pray for him. Yet as wives, we often struggle to pray consistently for our husbands. We forget in the busyness of life; or when we do remember, our prayers may lack clarity and direction. That’s what makes this book such a valuable tool for any wife who wants to grow in praying for her husband-and isn’t that all of us? Prayers of an Excellent Wife will inspire you to pray faithfully and fervently, and instruct you how to pray according to Scripture. I hope many wives will use these prayers to lavish their husbands with kindness.”

—CAROLYN MAHANEY, Author of Feminine Appeal

Prayers of an Excellent Wife provides a guide for humbly engaging in the joyful duty of intercession, petition, and thanksgiving for our husbands. I am delighted to speak these prayers with and on behalf of Matt.”

“My prayers for Tom can become tepid and redundant.  This book personalizes Scripture into prayers, touching on areas that I don’t always think of to pray for him.  The quotes sprinkled throughout are very insightful as well.  I would recommend it to any wife who is wanting to deepen and expand her prayer life for her husband.  It only takes a few minutes so it’s easy to incorporate into one’s devotional time.”

—DIANE SCHREINER

“Just imagine how our marriages, families and in turn the cause of Christ would be forever changed if godly wives took seriously their responsibility to pray for their husbands.  We know that we are commanded to pray—and to pray daily and specifically for our husbands.  Sadly, that mandate too often gets pushed aside, to Satan’s delight and our detriment, by the hectic pace of our lives.  Prayers of An Excellent Wife provides a template that if used properly will indeed produce excellent wives who faithfully and passionately pray God’s word for their precious husbands.  Andrew Case has skillfully compiled scores of poignant scriptural passages that when raised to God’s ear by the sincerity of a praying wife will move mountains.  I encourage Christian women everywhere to embrace this privilege that is ours to pray.  I recommend this book as an excellent resource to intentionally do so.  May we never underestimate how God will use our earnest prayers to raise up husbands who will lovingly lead their wives and families; who will be emboldened for the arduous work of the Kingdom, and who will eagerly seek to glorify the name of Christ alone.”
