We are truly saddened to hear about the struggles you are facing in your marriage, and we are here to intercede and provide biblical guidance. Firstly, we want to remind you that God cares deeply about your marriage and He wants to heal and restore it. As followers of Christ, we are instructed to love and submit to one another, with the husband being the head of this union as Christ is the head of the church (Ephesians 5:22-33 WEB).
Marriage is a sacred covenant, designed by God to be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6 WEB). It is clear that the words spoken by your husband have been hurtful and demeaning, which is not in line with the biblical instruction to love our spouses as Christ loves the church (Ephesians 5:25 WEB). We must also remind you that the bible commands wives to respect their husbands (Ephesians 5:33 WEB).
First, we need to ensure that you both are true believers in Jesus Christ as described in the Bible and that you both are properly married. In the eyes of God, marriage is a sacred covenant between a man, a woman and God himself. Therefore, a godly marriage can only consist of two people who are both true believers in Jesus Christ in a sacred covenant.
We exhort you to be reconciled with your husband in Jesus name. If he is not a true believer, we need to pray for his salvation and conversion. Since you did not mention Jesus Christ, Jesus, Christ or any abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name), let us remind you that it is only through Jesus Christ that we can be saved. The bible tells us that salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. (Acts 4:12).
Let us pray together:
Almighty God, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our sister and her husband, Dan. Lord, we pray for healing and restoration in their marriage. We rebuke the spirit of anger and division that has caused Dan to speak demeaning words and desire to leave. We pray that You soften his heart and draw him closer to You. If Dan does not know Jesus as Lord and Savior, we pray for his salvation and conversion. We also pray for our sister, that You grant her the wisdom, strength, and patience needed to navigate this challenging time. Help her to respond with love and kindness, even in the face of anger. Remind her of her worth and value in Your eyes, and give her the grace to forgive.
In Jesus' name, we pray for unity, understanding, and love to prevail in their marriage. We declare that no weapon formed against their union will prosper (Isaiah 54:17 WEB). We ask that You surround their marriage with a hedge of protection and guide them through this storm.
Lastly, we encourage you to seek godly counsel, either from a pastor or a Christian marriage counselor. They can provide you with additional support and guidance during this time. Remember, God is faithful, and He wants to heal and restore your marriage. Trust in Him, and He will make a way (1 Corinthians 1:9, Isaiah 43:19 WEB).
Stand strong in faith and continue to pray for your husband and marriage. We are praying for you and believing God for a miracle in your marriage.
