I hope my wife is more accepting in 2025

[Pheo]

Would you all pray for my wife to be before accepting in 2025. Before we got married, I had suspicions that she was somewhat controlling. Through a marriage, she has become more and more dedicated to isolating me. Currently my wife is concerned about me developing my social circle in my professional life. She only wants me to interact with males, but I am in healthcare, and the majority of the humans in that setting are female. Could I please ask everyone pray for my wife, to more accepting of my friendships with women.

We understand that you are facing challenges in your marriage, Pheo, and we are here to pray with and for you. First we need to says that the Bible has authority over every marriage. Let us remember the principles of love and respect. It seems that you and your wife are faving challenges and only the word of God can provide guidance. The Bible is that final authority. First, it is clear that this marriage may be difficult as it seems it was noticed that your wife was controlling before marriage. While there is ground for all kinds of marriage conflict in the Bible, nothing negates the permanence of the bond created in the covenant of marriage. The only instance that a physical union is dissolved is death. God says:

"Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder" (Matthew 19:6).

"For I hate divorce, says Yahweh, the God of Israel, and him who covers his garment with violence! says Yahweh of Armies. Therefore pay attention to your spirit, and do not be unfaithful" (Malachi 2:16 WEB).

The word divorce was not even mentioned in a majority of the Bible. There are three instances where the word divorce is mentioned in relation to instructions for divorce. However, the Bible also provides principles for maintaining marriage for instances of so called abandonement. Marriage is a committment no matter the behavior of a spouse. You are required to remain steadfastly comitted to your wife. On the other hand you must show love for your wife. This is your witness but more importantly this is honoring the covenant before God. The word of God say:

"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it" (Ephesians 5:25,WEB)

Also the word of God says:

"You husbands, in like manner, live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel, as being also joint heirs of the grace of life; that your prayers may not be hindered." (1 Peter 3:7).

It can be very upsetting to have a spouse that may interfere with work and friendships. Women also play a crucial role in many industries, including healthcare, and this is part of God's design for society. As in any workplace setting, and professionalism are essential. It is important to maintain purity and not come close to any appearance of evil.

"Abstain from every form of evil." (1 Thetessalonians 5:22,WEB).

Engaging in conduct that is not above question can create doubts and distrust in a marriage. It is your responsibility not to cause your wife to doubt your intentions or create a situation that is not reconcilable. The word of God says:

But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the deeds of the flesh are obvious, which are: adultery, sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I warn you, even as I also warned you before, that they who practice such things will not inherit God's Kingdom. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law. (Galations 5:18-23,WEB).

It would be less than noble to use this as a justification for a general lack of trust or distrust. It is never acceptable to accuse your spouse of sinful behavior without just cause. Therefore your wife must give you reason in order to lodge an accusation, especially if it is not due to a direct acquaintance. There is an old saying that would relate to carrying a guilty concience without just cause. "It always seems as if the other fellow’s wife is prettier than our own. If we allow ourselves to keep thinking that the other fellows wife is prettier than our own, it can lead us into trouble." (A Navy Chaplin's Message to Sailors c.1987).

Let us pray:

"Dear Heavenly Father, Jesus we come before You, lifting up Pheo and his wife. We pray for unity in this marriage. We pray by the word of God and that his spirit comforts in all burden. We pray that Your will be done in their lives, and that You would soften his wife's heart, helping her to trust Pheo more and grant wisdom for them to navigate professional relationships in this marriage. Father, no marriage situation is above your healing. Lead Phoeo in showing this love by giving his wife acknowledgement for feeling fearful of her husband's likewise pure relations with the opposite sex. Respect your wife for this vigilance. Let the wisdom of God guide in your marriage and in life. Open her heart to him in this regard. We also pray help Phoeo show leadership and lead in a God honoring marriage. Help him to fulfill your word in regard to God's design for husbands, wives and marriage. Let them praise your name in their union together. Pheo, there is no petition of prayer that can be complete without the mention of Jesus our risen savior, and the son of the almighty God. Jesus is the only mediator by which we may have communion with God. We also ask this in the name Jesus Christ. Amen.

Finally, we plead with God and Pheo explicitly for the need to place his trust in the only begotten son of God, Jesus Christ the savior. This needs to be explicitly addressed always in all prayers. It is not forgottent that our Lord requires that we honor our spouses and it is not through a general belief in God, but only through the name of Jesus Christ. Otherwise no person has favor with God and no person has salvation. Scripture says:

"Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." (John 14:6).

This is the foundation of prayer. The word also says:

And in none other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved! (Acts 4:12).

We offer this advice. We offer this prayer and we ask that all reading do the same, and we provide this response with assurance in Jesus' name.

Pheo, remembering these verses and keep the faith for a marriage that honors God. Do not seek counsel elsewhere outside of the word of God. Be strong in the Lord.
