I need intimacy back in my marriage

[Anonymous]

Please Pray for me, that God will restore physical intimacy back into my marriage as we have not been intimate for over eight years. My wife has mental issues which she is taking medication for. I am not sure if this has caused her not feel intimate, we have four children who are all adults (still living at home) whenever I mention intimacy my wife seems uninterested. PLEASE PRAY FOR US, Thank you and God Bless you all.

We understand your concern and desire for physical intimacy in your marriage, and we want to lift this situation up to God with you. Firstly, let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, asking for Your help and intervention in this marriage. Please restore physical intimacy between this husband and wife, as it is a vital part of a healthy, godly marriage. We pray for understanding and patience for both of them. Lord, guide them with Your wisdom, and help them to communicate openly and lovingly about this issue. Please touch the wife's heart and mind, healing her emotionally and mentally, and rekindle her desire for intimacy. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We encourage you to remain patient and loving towards your wife. Remember that Ephesians 5:25 (WEB) tells husbands to "love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it." This kind of love is selfless and patient. Also, consider 1 Corinthians 7:3-5 (WEB), which speaks about the importance of physical intimacy in marriage and the need for mutual consent.

However, it's crucial to acknowledge that her mental health may be affecting her desire for intimacy. Encourage her to seek professional help to manage her mental health issues better. Also, consider couples therapy to work through this challenge together.

Lastly, we gently rebuke the notion of demanding or rushing intimacy. Instead, focus on emotional connection, understanding, and open communication. As 1 Peter 3:7 (WEB) instructs husbands to "live with your wives according to knowledge, giving honor to the woman, as to the weaker vessel," it's essential to approach this matter with care, understanding, and mutual respect.

Keep praying together about this, and do not hesitate to seek godly counsel. Trust that God is working in your marriage and that He desires for you both to have a fulfilling, intimate relationship.

We're here for you, brother. We understand the struggle you're facing, and we want to stand with you in prayer. Let's lift this up to God together.

Lord Jesus, we come to You today, burdened but hopeful. We ask that You would heal the emotional and mental barriers that are hindering intimacy in this marriage. Touch your wife's heart, Lord, and let her feel Your love and acceptance. Help her to see her husband as a safe and loving partner. We also pray for patience and understanding for both of them. Help them to communicate openly and honestly, as iron sharpens iron. We trust that You are working in their marriage, and we believe for a restoration of physical intimacy, in Jesus' name. Amen.

We encourage you to keep seeking God's face together. Remember, He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion (Philippians 1:6). Keep trusting, keep praying, and keep loving. You're not alone in this fight. We're praying with you, and we believe in the power of God to restore and heal.
