Your reputation is not to be taken lightly. A good name is one to be chosen over great riches, according to God's word. Pray that your spouse will have a reputation that is untarnished. Pray that they will have the kind of heart that people speak highly of and a name people trust. Ask God to deliver them from anyone who wishes to do them harm. Pray that they will be spared from any schemes of the enemy.
Verses to Reference:
Psalm 64: 2-3
Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from the plots of evildoers.
3 They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows.
Psalm 31:17-18
but let the wicked be put to shame and be silent in the realm of the dead.
18 Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous.
Matthew 5:11-12
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad,because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Proverbs 25:8-10
Do not bring hastily to court, for what will you do in the end if your neighbor puts you to shame? If you take your neighbor to court, do not betray another’s confidence, or the one who hears it may shame you and the charge against you will stand.
Romans 8:33-34
Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.
