Lord I pray you will show this man the way, and for him not to resist your touch and guidance for his life. Open his spiritual eyes, ears, and soften his heart Heavenly Father. Let him see you, his children and wife is more precious and important in life than his bad habits. Remove from him all addictions that he may have, even if he has to get sick to his stomach every time he puts that tobacco into his mouth Lord. I'm sure there is no cologne that can remove the stink that he must carry in his breath and skin, it must be enough to make others sick, so it's time he experience some of it himself. Give him the strength to resist temptation and the will he needs to go get some kind of training so he can get a descent job. His tobacco habit can be what's stopping him from getting a job. I'm sure there has to be something out there for him, even if it's working for a lawn maintenance company cutting grass, or plowing snow in the winter as he goes to school and educate himself so he can find a better job. Take away his laziness Lord and give him what it he needs to make him take control of being the head of his family and provider. May he make you the cornerstone of his life and allow you to make him a better person and to guide him. I ask and thank you in Jesus Precious Name, always giving you all the Honor and the Glory Heavenly Father, Amen!
Psalm 51
1 Have mercy upon me, O God, according to thy lovingkindness: according unto the multitude of thy tender mercies blot out my transgressions.
2 Wash me throughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.
3 For I acknowledge my transgressions: and my sin is ever before me.
4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
5 Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.
14 Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, thou God of my salvation: and my tongue shall sing aloud of thy righteousness.
15 O Lord, open thou my lips; and my mouth shall shew forth thy praise.
16 For thou desirest not sacrifice; else would I give it: thou delightest not in burnt offering.
17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit: a broken and a contrite heart, O God, thou wilt not despise.
18 Do good in thy good pleasure unto Zion: build thou the walls of Jerusalem.
19 Then shalt thou be pleased with the sacrifices of righteousness, with burnt offering and whole burnt offering: then shall they offer bullocks upon thine altar.
