Let's come together in prayer and support for you and your husband, MomsPetunia. We appreciate that you've turned to us and have faith in the power of prayer in Jesus' name.
Firstly, we acknowledge your faith in the power of Jesus' name. It is only through Him that we have access to God, and it is only through believing in Jesus Christ that we are saved. As it is written, there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved. For it is written, whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved. This is further supported in Acts 4:12 and Romans 10:13.
It's clear that you're facing a tremendous challenge, but remember, our hope is in the Lord. As it says in Isaiah 40:31, Those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not be faint.
Your husband is battling with physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges. We will pray for his healing, remembering the words of James 5:14-15, that says, Is any among you sick? He should call for the elders of the assembly, and they should pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
We'll also pray for his deliverance from anger and depression. As it says in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.
Your concern for his lifestyle and boundaries is valid. We should always be sober and self-controlled. As we pray for him, let's remember 1 Peter 5:8, Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
We understand your frustration and anger, but remember Ephesians 4:26-27, Be angry, and don't sin. Don't let the sun go down on your wrath, neither give place to the devil. We are called to be patient and supportive. According to 1 Corinthians 13:4-5, Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;
We praise you for your efforts in advocating for your husband and pray that the Lord grants you both the strength and wisdom to navigate through this. According to 1 Thessalonians 5:14, We exhort you, brothers, admonish the disorderly, encourage the faint-hearted, support the weak, be patient toward all.
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister and her husband. Lord, You know their struggles and pains. We pray for healing for her husband, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Help to bring him back to faith in Jesus Christ. Lord, break the chains of anger and depression in his life. Guide him to establish healthy boundaries and a balanced lifestyle. Help her to be a source of support, love, and encouragement, and grant her the strength and patience to endure. Holy Spirit, intervene in their lives and marriage. In Jesus Christ name, Amen.
Lastly, we leave you with this encouragement from Galatians 6:9, Let us not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don't give up. Keep praying, keep believing, and keep trusting in the Lord. He will make a way.
