We understand your desire to pray for your ex-husband, ###. It's commendable that you wish to seek God's protection and guidance for him. Let's approach this in a biblical manner, remembering that God cares for both of you.
Firstly, we encourage you to pray in the name of Jesus Christ. As it's written in John 14:13-14 (WEB), "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It's through Jesus that our prayers are heard by God.
Now, let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ. We lift up ###'s ex-husband to You. Lord, we ask that You protect him from any harm and negative influences. Soften his heart, Lord, so that he may be open to Your will and guidance. Grant him the courage and strength to make right decisions that honor You. We also pray for ###, that You give her peace and healing from the past. Help her to forgive and trust in You for her future. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
While it's good to pray for your ex-husband, we must also remember the importance of forgiveness. Ephesians 4:31-32 (WEB) tells us, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you." Forgiving him will not only release you from bitterness but also open the door for your own healing.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue seeking God's will for your life. Psalm 143:10 (WEB) says, "Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. Your Spirit is good. Lead me in the land of uprightness." Trust that God has a plan for you, and He will guide you towards it as you seek Him.
