I love that Stormie Omartian included fears in her book The Power of a Praying Wife (the book these posts are inspired by). I never thought to pray for my spouse's fears until I read this book. In the Bible it tells us that perfect love casts out fear. We must pray that God will perfect our spouse in God's love, so that tormenting fear finds no place in them. Ask the Lord to keep fear from ruling over your spouse. Pray that your spouse will acknowledge God and His unfailing love, whose presence casts out all fears.
