We are truly saddened to hear about the challenges you're facing in your marriage, especially the pain caused by your husband's adultery. We will stand with you in prayer and speak God's truth into this situation.
Firstly, let's remember what God says about marriage and adultery. In Hebrews 13:4 (WEB), it's written, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." Adultery is a severe sin, but God offers forgiveness and restoration when there is genuine repentance.
We commend you for your commitment to your marriage and your desire to avoid divorce. As it is said in Malachi 2:16 (WEB), " 'For I hate divorce,' says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'and him who covers his garment with violence!' says Yahweh of Armies. 'Therefore take heed to your spirit, that you don't deal treacherously.'"
However, it's crucial to address your husband's continued adultery and denial. In Matthew 18:15-17 (WEB), Jesus teaches us how to handle sin within the church, including confronting the sinner and seeking repentance. It's time to confront your husband lovingly but firmly about his actions, possibly with the support of your church or Christian community.
Let us pray for you:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister who is hurting and in desperate need of Your intervention. Lord, we ask that You convict her husband of his sins and bring him to true repentance. Break the chains of adultery and lies, and bring healing and restoration to their marriage. Strengthen our sister with Your power, peace, and joy. Help her to stand firm in her faith and to do what is right and pleasing to You. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, remember the power of forgiveness, as Jesus taught in Matthew 6:14-15 (WEB), "For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you don't forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses." Keep trusting God, and He will guide you through this difficult time.
