{ 31 Days of Prayer for my Husband - Day 8 }

 

 

 

Day 8

 
Pray that your husband will work hard to provide for your family, to the best of his ability. Pray that the character qualities necessary for a successful career and ministry will be a growing part of his character—persistence, decisiveness, strength, an analytical mind, organizational skills, positive relationships with people, determination, etc. (Rom. 12:11; 1 Cor. 15:58 )

Romans 12:6

6Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly: if prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith;

1 Corinthians 15:58

58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in ^(B)the work of the Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord.

 

{ Happy Homemaker Monday - 10/07/2024 }

Good morning, welcome back :)

I hope you've all had a good weekend, and I wish you all a very blessed week ahead.  I don't have much to ramble on about today, so I thought it best to just say hello and get right on with our post. 

 

 

 

*** The weather in my neck of the woods*** 

Still staying in the 90s, and though I wish it was lower temperatures, I will take these over triple digits.  

 

Monday - Sunny, 90

Tuesday - Sunny, 92

Wednesday - Sunny, 93

Thursday - Mostly Sunny, 95

Friday - Mostly Sunny, 94

Saturday - Sunny, 97

 *** Things that make me happy ***

Books....reading, browsing, sitting at the library surrounded by them. 

I do have a Kindle and do read on it sometimes, but nothing beats a physical book for me.

 

 

*** Book I'm reading *** 

Finished both The Apothecary's Daughter by Julie Klassen and Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson. Also finished the second book in the Rae Carson Trilogy, so the second book after Walk on Earth a Stranger, and am well into the third and last.  Took this weekend off to catch up on my reading, and I can't tell you how much I love just sitting down on a quiet afternoon, with a hot cup of tea and reading a good book.

So, at the moment, I'm reading Into the Bright Unknown by Rae Carson.

Also, still in Joshua in the Bible.

 

 

*** What's on my tv today *** 

Vlogtober Videos on YouTube.

Christian Videos by some of my favorite prophets, on Rumble. 

 

 

*** On the breakfast plate *** 

Had a cup of coffee with 2% milk and a bowl of my fresh granola, that I prepared last night.   

 

 

*** On the lunch plate *** 

Not sure, I am not really very hungry today.  But, it will probably be a salad, a smoothie or a yogurt.     

 

 

*** On the dinner plate *** 

Baked Greek Yogurt Chicken, Basmati Rice, Zucchini in Tomato Sauce.

 

 

*** On the menu *** 

Will be starting the new meal plan on Wednesday, so as always, there are only meals until then.

*** What I am creating ***

Just working on the Granny Fall Blanket, and also did a few rows on the Nordic Winter Afghan, which I am trying really hard to finish as soon as possible.

 

*** No words needed (favorite photo or picture) *** 

I've been looking back on my blog, quite a lot this past week.  I love going back in time and reading my posts, seeing what we were doing.  I came across this gorgeous photo of my Yarn Along, when I was working on making my first Blooming Pillow ♥    

 

 

 

 

*** Devotional, Prayers, Bible Verses *** 

My prayers are still very much focused on the devastation from Hurricane Helene, but now also adding in Hurricane Milton which is on track to hit Florida again by Wednesday.  Please pray! 

{ 31 Days of Prayer for my Husband - Day 7 }

 

 

Day 7

Pray that your husband will safeguard his heart against inappropriate relationships with the opposite sex. Pray that his heart will be pure and undivided in his commitment to you. (Prov. 6:23-24, 26; Rom. 13:14)

Proverbs 6:23-24

23For he commandment is a lamp and the teaching is light;
And reproofs for discipline are the way of life
24To keep you from the evil woman,
From the smooth tongue of the adulteress.

Proverbs 6:26 (New American Standard Bible)

26For on account of a harlot one is reduced to a loaf of bread,
And an adulteress hunts for the precious life.

Romans 13:14 (New American Standard Bible)

14But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh in regard to its lusts.

 Day 6

 

Pray that your husband will love righteousness and hate wickedness, especially the evils of the culture. Pray that he will recognize and avoid wickedness in his own life, and if necessary, take a clear, strong stand against evil. (Prov. 27:12; John 17:15; 1 Cor. 10:12-13)

Proverbs 27:12 (New International Version)

12 The prudent see danger and take refuge,
but the simple keep going and suffer for it.

John 17:15 (New International Version)

15My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.

1 Corinthians 10:12-13 (New International Version)

12So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! 13No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

{ 31 Days of Prayer for my Husband - Day 5 }

 

 

 Day 5

 
Pray that your husband will be faithful to his wedding vows. Pray that he will have a desire to cultivate your relationship as a sign of his loyalty and commitment to you, and as a picture of Christ’s love for the Church. (Prov. 20:6; Gen. 2:24)

Proverbs 20

6Many a man proclaims his own loyalty,
But who can find a trustworthy man?

Genesis 2:24 (New American Standard Bible)

24 For this reason a man shall leave his father and his mother, and be joined to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.
