27 He will make a firm covenant with many for one week, but in the middle of the week he will put a stop to sacrifice and offering. The end will come with a flood, and until the end there will be war desolations are decreed. The people of the coming ruler will destroy the city and the sanctuary. 26 After those sixty-two weeks the Anointed One will be cut off and will have nothing.

It will be rebuilt with a plaza and a moat, but in difficult times. 25 Know and understand this: From the issuing of the decree to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until an Anointed One, the ruler, will be seven weeks and sixty-two weeks.

Lead him, guide him and direct him, then surround him, encourage him and enable him to do his life’s work humbly, willingly and thoroughly. May the words I speak affirm what he has already heard from You, always encouraging, never condemning. (Jer.29:11) I firmly hold on to that promise. You have promised hope and a future for us and our family to prosper us and not to harm us. Help me accept his work, knowing You are in control and will not bring us to ruin. Give me words that will strengthen his courage to stand for You, saying what he needs to hear when he needs to hear it and not what I think he needs to hear, when I think he needs to hear them.

Help me, also, encourage my husband in whatever You would have him do, not coming in the way of Your will. May the people he works with be people of integrity, honesty and right standing with You, Father, always encouraging and strengthening my husband’s walk with You. You guide the hearts of kings like a stream, (Pr.21:1) so I know You are capable of steering my husband away from bad business deals. Guide him away from anyone or anything that could harm his very livelihood. “Nothing is better for a man than to enjoy his work, because that is his lot.” (Ecc.3:22)įather, I pray the people You bring into my husbands path through his work, will be of good reputation and report. Give him peace and clear direction of Your plan for his life’s work. Help him to see past the dollar signs and rest secure in knowing that what You would have him do will provide over and abundantly beyond what he could ever imagine for his family. Where he is not in Your will lead Him to better. I know so much of who a man is, is tied up in his work. One that can only come from being in complete submission to Your will.

Give my husband a sense of fulfillment from his work. (1 Chr.28:20) May he do whatever You have him do with all his heart, as working for Yo and not for man. 16:3) May he “be strong and courageous, and do the work.” May he not be afraid or discouraged, knowing You, the Lord God, are with him.

May he commit to you whatever he does, so his plans may succeed. Where there is anything not glorifying to You, convict him and then supply him the courage to make the necessary changes. May he bring You into every aspect of his work. Lord, lead him to the work You would have him do. May he work with his own hands so that he will not grow dependent on anybody. I pray he will make it his ambition to lead a quiet and simple life so that his daily work may win the respect of outsiders. I pray you will teach him the importance of balance between work and rest. On one hand, working too hard will result in burn out and neglect of his family, while on the other hand, being lazy will result in the ruin of himself and his family. Help him find the perfect balance between working too hard provide for his family, and not being disciplined enough to take on his responsibility as provider of his home.
