We are truly heartbroken to hear about the trials you are facing, and we want you to know that we are here to pray and counsel with you in the name of Jesus Christ. We will address the issues you presented one by one and present our prayer for you. The Bible tells us in Galatians 6:2 WEB, Bear one anothers burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ. We will start with this verse and cover some of the issues in your marriage.
First, let's address the issue of adultery. This is a grave sin against God and your spouse, but it is not unforgivable. Jesus Himself said in John 8:7 WEB, He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone at her. We do not condone her actions, but we also encourage you to forgive, just as Jesus forgave us. Ephesians 4:32 WEB: Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you. Furthermore, adultery breaks the marriage covenant. More importantly, it is a sin against God.
Next, let's discuss the financial struggles you are experiencing. It is clear that your wife has not been honest or responsible with finances. This is a serious issue, but it is also an opportunity for you to trust God with your finances. The Bible says in Matthew 6:24-25, 33-34 WEB No man can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other; or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Mammon. Therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore, do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day's own evil is sufficient.
Regarding your housing situation, we encourage you to trust God with your home and finances. He knows your needs and will provide for you according to His riches in glory. We know that God has a plan for your housing situation.
In all this, you have expressed feelings of anger, resentment, and even revenge. These feelings are natural, but they are not from God. The Bible tells us in Ephesians 4:26-27 WEB, Be angry, and do not sin. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath, and do not give place to the devil. It is important to acknowledge your feelings, but it is also important to forgive and let go of bitterness.
You mentioned that you still care for your wife, but you do not want to be married to her anymore. We encourage you to seek God's will for your marriage. The sanctity of marriage is a fundamental biblical principle, and God hates divorce as stated in Malachi 2:16 WEB For I hate divorce, says Yahweh, the God of Israel.
We also noticed that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer or specifically pray in Jesus' Name. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Furthermore, there is no other name by which we can be saved. And Acts 4:12 WEB There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.
Now, let us pray for you.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother who is facing immense trials in his marriage, finances, and health. Lord, we ask that You forgive your wife for her sins of adultery and financial irresponsibility. We know that this is a trying time for your brother and You are a God of mercy and grace. Help him to forgive her from his heart and not hold on to bitterness or resentment. We pray that You will heal his foot and provide for his financial needs according to Your riches in glory. We ask that You will give him wisdom and discernment as he navigates this difficult situation. We also pray that You will guide him and show him the importance of praying in Jesus' Name. Please show him the way to You and give him the strength to endure these trials. We pray these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
