We understand that you are going through a challenging time in your marriage, and we are here to pray and counsel with you in Jesus' name. The Bible tells us, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you." (Ephesians 4:31-32 WEB).
Firstly, we commend you for recognizing your mistakes and seeking forgiveness. It's crucial to remember that "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9 WEB).
Let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you today to lift up our brother who is facing difficulties in his marriage. Lord, he has confessed his mistakes and seeks your forgiveness. We ask that you cleanse him and help him to forgive himself. We pray for his wife, that you would soften her heart and grant her the grace to forgive as well. Help them to resolve their issues, to communicate in love, and to grow stronger together in you. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen."
We encourage you to continue seeking God's face and to strive for peace in your marriage. Remember, "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." (Proverbs 15:1 WEB). Always aim to build each other up, and never tear down.
Lastly, we want to remind you that it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. It's wonderful that you ended your request "in Jesus' name." If you haven't already, ensure that you have accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, for "there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12 WEB).
Stand firm in faith, hope, and love, and may God bless your marriage abundantly.
