Well, it's Valentine's Day! A time to remember your family, special friends and of course, if you have one, your valentine. I am thinking about my future valentine today!
One of the ways that I help my future valentine is by praying for him. I think one of the most important things to pray, in helping him, is that his parents would have wisdom in raising him. It doesn't really matter how old he might be, or how many siblings he has. His parents still need wisdom and guidance on how to nurture him in the Lord.
Another thing I pray is that he would abound in his love of God. That he would keep growing in the Lord, and that he would have a vision for the things of Jesus. If he has a vision for Jesus, he won't be easily distracted. He won't be hanging out with other girls because he knows that there is no value in that. God has something better waiting for him. But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 1Corinthians 2:9
Something else I like to do is pray for myself. That God would strengthen me and prepare me so that later I will be a worthy help meet for my future husband. I know that God will let my future husband find me, just when I'm ready. No, I don't know who he is, and I am not planning on getting married soon. I am simply preparing, so I will be ready... when the time comes. :)
Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself in the Lord and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him and he shall bring it to pass. He shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday. Rest in the Lord; wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Psalms 37:3-7
I understand that this might be a different concept, to pray for your future husband instead of praying for a husband. By praying it helps me to trust God, to realize that he really is going to bring it to pass.
I want the first valentine I ever have to be my future husband. He will be the most special valentine ever, because he will be the only valentine I have ever had. Happy Valentine's Day!!!
