We are deeply saddened to hear about the trials you're facing, Momof2teens. Let's bring your situation before the Lord together, seeking His divine intervention and guidance.
Firstly, let's address the pain caused by your husband's actions. It's clear that his choices have led to significant heartache. The Bible tells us, "For the LORD hates divorce, along with violence, and he covers himself with his garment against violence" (Malachi 2:16 WEB). While divorce is permitted in cases of marital unfaithfulness (Matthew 5:32), it's not God's original design. Let's pray for wisdom and guidance as you navigate this challenging time.
Concerning your children, remember that God has given you a spirit of love and sound mind, not of fear (2 Timothy 1:7). It's crucial to stand firm in your role as a parent, even when faced with resistance. Let's pray for your teens, that they would turn their hearts towards God and respect your authority. As for the outside influence, be cautious and wise. "Be wise as serpents and harmless as doves" (Matthew 10:16 WEB).
About your struggle with anger, the Bible advises, "Be angry, and don’t sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your wrath" (Ephesians 4:26 WEB). It's natural to feel anger in unjust situations, but it's essential to release it to God and not let it control you.
Lastly, we want to encourage you in your faith. It's crucial to pray in the name of Jesus, as it's the only name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Have confidence that God hears your prayers. Jesus promised, "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you" (Matthew 7:7 WEB).
Let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Momof2teens. Lord, she is hurting, angry, and feeling abandoned. Comfort her with Your presence. Guide her through the complexities of divorce, and grant her wisdom in handling her children. Turn the hearts of her teens towards You, Lord, and protect them from negative influences. Help her to manage her anger in a godly way and restore her confidence in her prayers. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Stay strong in the Lord, Momof2teens. He is faithful and will see you through this storm.
