Praying for My Husband's Sexuality
Key Scriptures: 1 Corinthians 7:4, 1 Corinthians 7:5, Proverbs 5:15-19
The Power of Scripture
1. Read 1 Corinthians 7:4. This scripture is not licence for a man to take what he wants when he wants it. Sexual closeness is something a husband and wife give to each other when the other needs it, no matter what else they feel like doing at that moment. Write out what this verse means to you and how it applies to your marriage.
2. Read 1 Corinthians 7:5. Write down the reasons Paul gives for abstinence in marriage then pray that you and your husband will be in agreement about this important issue.
3. Read Proverbs 5:15-19. Write out a prayer for your husband and your marriage based on this scripture.
4. What counsel does Jesus give us in Matthew 18:9, and what call to prayer is implied in this verse?
The Power of Application
5. List any concerns or frustration you feel concerning your sexual relationship with your your husband. Consider ways you may have neglected the relationship, then resolve by God's grace to do better.
6. Do you feel that you are sexually attractive to your husband? Is he sexually attractive to you? What could you do to make yourselves more attractive to each other? Sometimes giving more attention to your appearance, a change of attitude, being positive and encouraging instead of judgmental and critical can make all the difference. Releasing anger, resolving long standing conflicts, hurt and unforgiveness are necessary. Write out a prayer asking God to show you what may be unattractive to your husband and what you can do today that would be pleasing to him. Ask God to help you both be sexually attractive and attracted to each other.

The Power of Prayer
Ask God to help you do whatever needs to be done to have a satisfying sexual relationship with your husband. Pray for your husband to learn more of God's will about how he is supposed to treat you. Ask the lord to make this most intimate aspect of your relationship all He intended for it to be.
