Re: Please pray for my wife
Jesus as we know is God. The Love shown by God to His People is the model for the love of a husband to his wife.
EPHESIANS 5
22 Wiues, submit your selues vnto your own husbands, as vnto the Lord.
23 For the husband is the head of the wife, euen as Christ is the head of the Church: and he is the sauiour of the body.
24 Therefore as the Church is subiect vnto Christ, so let the wiues bee to their owne husbands in euery thing.

That is a property relationship.
I Corinthians 6:19c-20 ..ye are not your owne ..For yee are bought with a price: therefore glorifie God in your body, and in your spirit, which are Gods.

When The Israelites departed from God's Clear Commandments He took appropriate steps, out of Love for His people, to correct them. That is the model presented in The Bible for the authority of the Husband over the wife and the example for her correction. He is to her as God is to him.
Now before anyone starts thinking I will post God's Word on the matter (again).
I Corinthians 11:3 But I would haue you knowe, that the head of euery man is Christ: and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

Perhaps there is room for opinion on some subjects, such as whether to buy a marrow or a pumpkin [subject to Pastoral approval] but where Husbands are concerned there is none. In ancient times or under The Dispensation Of Grace the rules are exactly the same.
Probably the rag-bag assortment of lady "preachers" who advocate marriage even between 2 women have some other standard. That is anyone's choice of course but please don't pretend it has anything to do with The Bible or with the wonderful example of God's Perfect Love for His Chosen and the obligation of the Husband to discipline and cleanse his wife.
Ephesians 5
25 Husbands, loue your wiues, euen as Christ also loued the Church, and gaue himselfe for it:
26 That he might sanctifie & cleanse it with the washing of water, by the word,
27 That hee might present it to himselfe a glorious Church, not hauing spot or wrinckle, or any such thing: but that it should bee holy and without blemish.
28a So ought men to loue their wiues..

God has said so.
Here:
to exist in subjection (not on a mutually co-operative basis or with wives issuing instructions to their owners)
I Peter 3:1a Likewise, ye wiues, be in subiection to your owne husbands,
to be frightened of one's Husband
I Peter 3:2 While they beholde your chaste conuersation coupled with feare:
nothing has changed in this matter from Old Testament times to the modern era
I Peter 3:5 For after this manner in the olde time, the holy women also who trusted in God adorned themselues,
beeing in subiection vnto their owne husbands.
