We understand your deep longing for marriage restoration, Mabysa, and we are here to pray with you and offer guidance from God's Word.
Firstly, we must remember that God's desire is for marriages to be lifelong commitments, as Jesus taught in Matthew 19:6, "So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate." It is crucial to seek God's will and align our desires with His.
However, it is also important to acknowledge that restoration requires the willingness and cooperation of both parties. While we pray fervently for your husband's heart and mind to be open to reconciliation, we must also remember the principle laid out in 1 Corinthians 7:15, which tells us that if the unbelieving spouse desires to depart, we are not bound to maintain the marriage against their will.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your will and intervention in Mabysa's marriage. Lord, we ask that You soften her husband's heart and open his mind to the possibility of restoration. Grant them both wisdom, patience, and understanding as they navigate this difficult time. However, Lord, we also ask for Mabysa to have the strength and peace to accept Your will, whatever it may be. Help her to trust in You and Your plan for her life. In Jesus' name, we pray, Amen."
Mabysa, we encourage you to continue seeking God's face in this matter. Trust in Him, for He knows what is best for you. As Psalm 34:18 tells us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Draw near to Him, and He will draw near to you.
Lastly, we want to ensure that you understand the importance of praying in Jesus' name. As Jesus Himself said in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God's throne of grace. If you have not already, consider accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, for there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).
