I ask for prayers I'm in pain now my wife left for another man last week and I still believe in God that He can change everything. So I ask brothers and sisters to pray for me and ask God to enlighten her heart to turn back and come home and let us mend our marriage together and give God our relationship to lead and guide us for the rest of our lives. Thank you
Scriptures to read over your wife:
Ezekiel 36:26 And I will give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from your flesh and give you a heart of flesh.

A Prayer for Unity in Marriage
Heavenly Father we come before you to thank you for all you have done and continue to do in our lives and marriage. We come before you today, God, asking for a stronger bond of unity in our marriage covenant. Father, we ask that you will give us the ability to be a united front for you letting nothing come between us. Help us, Father to identify and work through anything that is not pleasing to you so we can continually reach higher levels of unity in our marriage; spiritually, physically, and mentally. We are thankful and excited to see the work of your hand as we do our best to seek your face daily. We love you and thank you for all of these things. In Jesusβ name we pray. Amen! βMake every effort to keep yourselves united in the Spirit, binding yourselves together with peace.β (Ephesians 4:3)
Prayer for Forgiveness in Marriage
Heavenly Father, as we strive to continuously build a stronger marriage, help us to forgive one another for things that may hurt or offend us. Help us to walk in forgiveness and never lose sight of the fact that you have forgiven us. Help us to show your mercy and grace to our spouse each time they need it and not bring up past hurts or failures. Let us be an example of forgiveness to not only our spouse but to those around us so we can continue to show your love to all we meet. Help us to also forgive ourselves if we struggle with condemnation. Thank you for your life-giving words of truth that we may be redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. In Jesusβ name we pray. Amen! βIf we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.β (1 John 1:9)
A Prayer for Restoration of a Marriage in Trouble
Lord Jesus, nothing seems to be going right in our marriage. Lately, we argue over so many things. Or we walk out in anger or silence, too upset to deal with any issues. Sometimes we fuss about little problems that donβt really matter or hide things that really are important. But in Your eyes, Lord, everything matters. Pebbles grow to mountains when they pile up, day after day. When did it all start? Did we retreat into our own worlds? Become too busy to care? Did we stop listening to You and to each other?
Teach us how to communicate; to simply talk to each other again with courtesy and kindness. Show us again what love and respect look like, and what it means to honor and mutually submit to the other as a man and woman in love with You, Lord. Weβve forgotten all the basics. And we sense that if we donβt deal with even small problems now, weβll be facing a much greater roadblock later. Maybe weβve forgotten what love is really like. Or maybe we never really knew. Regardless, Lord, our marriage is in trouble. We need you. No matter how difficult the circumstances, we want to face them together with You on our side. Youβve told us we would experience troubles on this earth, but that You are the great Overcomer. With You, Lord, we can mend the tears and amend the errors. With You, we can build a successful marriage. In Jesus' name Amen.
A Spiritual Warfare Prayer for Relationship Restoration
Lord God, we can no longer remain stagnant in our marriage. Yet we canβt move forward, and we refuse to go backward. Our relationship feels broken like an old fashioned phonograph needle stuck on the same groove. So we are reaching out to You. Protect us from becoming another divorce statistic. In the name and through the blood of Jesus Christ, we resist our enemy who wants us to end this marriage. Lord, we ask You to rebuke the devour who is trying to rip apart the beautiful covenant began in us as a couple. We run to You, our Defender and Protector, our Refuge and Shelter in the time of trouble. We declare in the name of Jesus that our enemy, the devil, has no right to interfere in the sacred building of our relationship because You live in us and You are greater than the one who roams around looking for victims to destroy. In Jesus' name Amen.
PRAYERS FOR YOUR WIFE that you read over her....
A Prayer to Protect Her Joy
Thank you, Lord, for the gift of my wife. You are the giver of all good and perfect blessings, and Iβm amazed how You show Your love through her. Please help me to cherish such an amazing gift (James 1:17). Each day, circumstances and frustrations can easily steal the joy from ________. Please keep her from letting these challenges turn her focus from You, the author of her faith. Give her the joy that Jesus had as He accomplished the Fatherβs will on earth. May she consider each struggle as a reason to find hope in You (Hebrews 12:2-3; James 1:2-3). When she feels tired, Lord, renew her strength. Surround her with friends who love You and will bear her burdens. Give her reason to feel refreshed by their encouragement (Isaiah 40:31; Galatians 6:2; Philemon 1:7). May she know that the joy of the Lord is the source of her strength. Protect her from growing tired of doing what Youβve called her to do each day (Nehemiah 8:10; Galatians 6:9). In Jesus' name Amen.
Please Give Her a Growing Need for You
Lord, You supply all our needs according to Your riches in Christ. Iβm amazed that you care about us enough to meet our daily concerns and to notice every detail of our lives. Even the hairs of our heads are numbered because You take care of Your children (Philippians 4:19; Matthew 7:11, 10:30). I confess that I sometimes think of myself as being the one who takes care of _______. Forgive me for taking to myself what truly belongs to you. Her help comes from You. If she depends on me, I know Iβll disappoint her. But You never fail, and You make her like a garden that always has enough water. Youβre always faithful, always enough. Help her to know that You are all she needs (Psalm 121:2; Lamentations 3:22; Isaiah 58:11; John 14:8-9). If she is tempted to look for comfort in anything else, may she instead realize how the power of Your Holy Spirit allows her to overflow with hope and peace. Nothing on this earth compares to the greatness of knowing You (Romans 15:13; Philippians 3:8). In Jesus' name Amen.
A Prayer to Build Her Love
Father, You loved us firstβso much so that You sent Your Son to take our place. How incredible it is to think that while we were sinners, Christ died for us. Nothing we do could ever compare to the riches of Your grace (1 John 4:19; John 3:16; Romans 5:8; Ephesians 2:7). Help ________ to grow first in her love for You. May she be increasingly in awe of Your power, beauty, and grace. May she know more each day about the depth and width of Your love and respond with increasing love of her own (Psalm 27:4; Ephesians 3:18). Help her to love me through all my failures while I learn to love her as Christ loves the church. May we see each other as You see us, and may we enjoy fulfilling each otherβs desires in our marriage (Ephesians 5:25; 1 Corinthians 7:2-4). Please give her a growing love for others in all that she does. Show her how to be Christβs ambassador in the world and to be a woman defined by love so that others may glorify You. Because of that love, may she share the gospel with everyone (2 Corinthians 5:20; Matthew 5:16; 1 Thessalonians 2:8).
IMPORTANT: Whether you are seeking forgiveness for yourself or asking God to help you forgive someone else, prayer is the first place to start when seeking restoration and healing. Forgiving someone who has hurt you is never easy and we often end up causing ourselves more pain and heartache by carrying the bitterness of unforgiveness. The below prayers for forgiveness can help guide your thoughts and words towards peace and strength. It is a big step to seek out forgiveness and you have taken a bold step in faith! We all need forgiveness in life. It's much easier to show forgiveness to others when we recognize our own need first. Colossians 3:13 tells us to "forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you." May these short prayers help you as you seek forgiveness in a relationship or are struggling to forgive yourself.
A Prayer to Help You Forgive Others
Father, only you understand how much Iβve been hurt by this person. I donβt want to carry the pain for another second. I donβt want to be a bitter person. But I need your grace and the power of the cross to release my hurt and to forgive those whoβve hurt me. This is the turning point. First, I need to experience your forgiveness. You know all the ways Iβve hurt others, and Iβm so sorry for my sins. Jesus, thank you for dying for me. I accept your grace and forgiveness, and I need it daily. Today Iβm turning to you, and Iβm choosing to forgive the way you have forgiven me. Every time the memory comes back, Iβll forgive that person again until the pain is gone. Heal my heart with your grace. In Jesusβ name. Amen.

Prayer to God for Forgiveness of Sins

But prayer can be a means of reaching out to the Lord in true saving faith. If you pray these words in faith, Christ will save you. You can be sure of that.
Lord Jesus, for too long Iβve kept you out of my life. I know that I am a sinner and that I cannot save myself. No longer will I close the door when I hear you knocking. By faith I gratefully receive your gift of salvation. I am ready to trust you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for coming to earth. I believe you are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Thank you for bearing my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life. I believe your words are true. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, and be my Savior. Amen.
I know this is a lot to read and may be overwhelming, but God will help you when you Trust Him and are obedient in the waiting. Stay plugged in God's Word so you will begin restoration. Don't fight God's work...Let Him change your wife...You will not be able to do that only GOD CAN..... Stay faithful even in this darkness and pain you are feeling. God bless you....
