He takes his anger or just gets mad for the little things he calls me names and I never do anything right to him! He's always correcting me about everything!This is not what I thought marriage would be like! He sure wasn't like this when I married him! If I would have known! I stay because I been down this road before with him and I always go back thinking and hoping he would change! He keeps me away from friends and family I don't go nowhere without him because he's jealous we barely do anything fun or exciting it's just work and home he steady on the phone on the casino! I've told him I felt like killing myself he makes me want to because he knows I'll never leave my boys.

Dear Heavenly Father,

In the name of Jesus Christ, we come before you on behalf of Apthorn, who is facing immense challenges in her marriage. Lord, we lift up her husband to you, knowing that you are the God who can transform hearts and bring about change. We pray that you would touch his life and break the chains of insecurity, control, and abusive behavior that bind him. Your Word says in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5, "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ." We declare victory over the power of darkness that is influencing his actions and thoughts.

Father, we ask that you would open his eyes to the pain he is causing Apthorn and their children. Help him to see the destructive nature of his gambling addiction and the impact it has on their family. Your Word reminds us in James 1:5, "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." We pray that you would grant him wisdom and discernment to make the right choices and seek help for his addiction.

Lord, we also pray for Apthorn's emotional well-being and strength. We ask that you would surround her with your love and peace, giving her the courage to stand firm and seek the necessary support. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:6-7, "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." May she find comfort in knowing that you are with her every step of the way.

Father, we pray for restoration and healing in their marriage. We ask that you would soften their hearts towards one another and restore the love and respect that has been lost. Your Word teaches us in Ephesians 4:32, "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." May forgiveness and reconciliation be the foundation of their relationship.

Lastly, Lord, we pray for divine intervention and guidance. Show Apthorn the steps she needs to take for her own well-being and the well-being of her children. Provide her with a support system of friends and family who can offer encouragement and assistance. Your Word reminds us in Psalm 34:17, "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles." We trust in your faithfulness to answer prayers and bring about transformation.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Let Us Pray: God Thank You for loving me. Thank You for loving me Jesus. God, I ask You in Jesus' name to please bless me with everything I stand in need of, and everything You want me to have. Bless me to know You in truth and fall in love with You with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength. Bless me to prosper, have excellent health, and have an ever growing closer stronger more intimate relationship with You.

Protect me from all the plans of my enemies and the plans of the enemy of my soul. God all that I have asked of You, in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of the prayer, all those who love and care about me, pray Your best for me, and all those I love and care about. God please forever honor this prayer over each of our lives. God Thank You. Amen, so be it by faith.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.

I pray you see that God has shown you what you need to see. He is not going to change. I pray you have the strength to leave. I am so sorry about your spouse’s addiction. I fear he is using you. You would be better off by yourself. Do you want your boys to learn from his bad behavior. I hope you receive the resources you need to move on and enjoy life.
