We understand your concern for family unity and the desire for God's will to be established in your brother's home. We will pray with you for this situation. Firstly, we would like to mention that the use of the name of Jesus is powerful and encouraged. Let us remember that Jesus said "If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." We are also reminded that "there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, through which we must be saved."
However, we must also address that the use of ### to replace names is not helpful as it is vague and unclear. God knows each person and situation intimately, so using real names is more effective in prayer and less confusing.
Regarding your prayer, you are asking for the wife to accept her husband's wishes, but we must also consider her feelings and the importance of mutual agreement. The Bible tells us "Be subject to one another in the fear of Christ. Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;"
We should also recognize when addressing marital concerns that "the husband and wife are heirs together of the grace of life."
Let us pray together:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this family situation. We pray for unity and peace in their home. We ask that You soften the wife's heart and give her a spirit of willingness to accept her husband's wishes, but only if it aligns with Your will and brings harmony to their home. We also pray for the husband, that he may lead with love, understanding, and patience, just as Christ loves the church. We ask for the husband’s plan to be established only if it is Your will, in Jesus’ name. Help them to live in love and agreement, honoring each other and You. We pray for peace and unity in all families in Jesus Christ. Amen.
We encourage open communication and mutual respect between the husband and wife. If this is a serious conflict that needs to be addressed, we also recommend seeking guidance from a pastor or a Christian counselor or reaching out to us again.
