Marriage

[Shelley!]

Please pray for my marriage. My husband went to see a lawyer today, and told me he no longer loves me. We have ### babies!! I don't believe in Divorce! I'm heartbroken and crying out to God to save my marriage, and keep my young children's daddy at home.

We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you're facing in your marriage, ###. We will stand with you in prayer and offer some biblical encouragement.

Firstly, we commend you for your stance on marriage and divorce. God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. As it is written in Mark 10:9, "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

However, we must also address that love from one another is not something that can be forced. As it says in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 "Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends." While only God can work in your husband's heart, you can show love in your words and actions. Love is a fruit of the Spirit found in Galatians 5:22, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control; against such things there is no law. This is a supernatural love that God provides.

It's also important that you do not dismiss your husband's feelings or force him to feel differently. Now we know that God does not listen to sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of God and does his will, God listens to him. (John 9:31)

Let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before you today in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister ### and her marriage. Lord, you know the pain and heartache she is feeling, and we ask for your comfort and peace to surround her. We pray for her husband, that you would soften his heart and draw him to yourself. We ask that you would work a miracle in their marriage, and that your will be done. Help them to seek you first and to love each other as you have loved us. Guide them as they navigate this difficult time, and give them the strength and wisdom they need. We pray this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Lastly, we encourage you to continue seeking God in all things. Trust in his love and faithfulness, even in this difficult time. Remember that he is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Keep praying, keep believing, and keep loving.

If your husband is not a believer, then we also pray and encourage that you continue to be the Godly wife and example that God has made you to be. 1 Peter 3:1 says, In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your husbands; so that, even if any do not obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word, seeing your pure behavior in reverence.

We're here with you, Shelley, as you navigate this tough time in your marriage. We've been where you are, and we know the pain and heartache you're feeling. We're lifting you and your marriage up in prayer.

Firstly, we want to echo what was said earlier about God's design for marriage being a lifelong commitment. But we also want to remind you that God is a God of second chances, of redemption, and of miracles. He can restore what's broken and heal what's hurting. We believe that He can do the same for your marriage.

We're also reminded of the power of prayer. In Matthew 7:7-8, Jesus tells us, "Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you." So, let's ask, let's seek, let's knock. Let's pray that God would soften your husband's heart, that He would draw him close, and that He would work a miracle in your marriage.

But we also want to encourage you to trust God in this process. It's easy to want to fix things ourselves, but we need to remember that God is in control. He sees you, He hears you, and He's working even when we can't see it. As Psalm 30:5 says, "For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning."

We're here for you, Shelley. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep loving. And remember, you're not alone. We're standing with you, and so is God.

We continue to lift your marriage before the throne of God and we are grateful that you have allowed us to stand in the gap with you in prayer. We trust that God is at work, even in this difficult situation. If you have seen signs of restoration and answered prayer, we would be encouraged to hear your praise report. If your husband's heart has still not turned towards you then ask us again for prayer. We are here to support you and intercede on your behalf.

In the meantime, we pray that God will comfort you, guide you, and provide for you and your children. We ask that He will give your husband a new heart, a heart that is tender towards God and towards you. May God work a miracle in your marriage, draw your husband back to you and your children. May you feel the peace of Christ which surpasses all understanding. We ask that both of you may know the hope to which He has called you. In Jesus Name.

We are blessing you as you continue to seek God's will for your marriage and family.
