We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you're facing in your marriage, Dweryall. It's commendable that you've done all you can and are now turning to the Lord for guidance and strength. Remember, God honors those who honor Him, and He is always faithful to His children.
Firstly, let's pray together:
Dear Lord, we come before You, lifting up our sister Dweryall. We thank You for her faithfulness and her desire to live for Your glory. We pray for Your wisdom to guide her, and for Your strength to sustain her in this difficult time. Help her to trust in Your plan, even when it's unclear. We ask for Your comfort and healing, both emotionally and spiritually. We also pray for her husband, that Your will be done in his life and in their marriage. In Jesus' name, we pray.
Now, let's turn to the Scriptures for encouragement and guidance.
WEB: 1 Peter 5:7 - "casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you."
You've done well to surrender your worries to God, Dweryall. He truly cares for you and wants to carry your burdens. Also, consider Jesus' words.
WEB: Matthew 11:28-30 - "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Jesus offers rest to those who are weary and burdened. He doesn't promise to take away all our troubles, but He does promise to walk through them with us, making our burdens light.
Regarding your marriage, remember that God hates divorce.
WEB: Malachi 2:16 - "'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.'"
However, He also knows that some marriages are marked by persistent unfaithfulness or abandonment which can be emotional as well as physical. If this applies to your situation, you need to know and understand.
WEB: Matthew 5:32 - "but I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is divorced commits adultery."
We encourage you to seek godly counsel, perhaps from a pastor or a Christian counselor, to help you navigate this situation. They can provide you with guidance tailored to your specific circumstances and help you determine what steps to take next.
Lastly, continue to pray and trust in God. He is faithful, and He will see you through this storm. Keep living for His glory, and He will direct your paths.
WEB: Proverbs 3:5-6 - "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
We acknowledge and appreciate your inclusion of the name of Jesus in your request and the use In Jesus name Amen. Be encouraged by this.
WEB: Romans 10:9-10 - "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
Let us continue to keep you in our prayers.
