We understand your distress, Sembold, and we want to come alongside you in prayer and truth during this challenging time.
First, let's pray together:
"Father in heaven, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your will and intervention in Sembold's life. We pray for her husband, that Your hand would be upon him, and that You would draw him back to his family. We ask for Your wisdom and guidance for Sembold, that she may know how to act and what to do in this situation. We pray for their children, that they may be comforted and have peace during this time. Lord, we know that You hate divorce, as it is written in Malachi 2:16, '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.' We pray for restoration and reconciliation, in Jesus' name. Amen."
Sembold, we encouraging you to hold onto hope and faith in God. Remember the words of Jesus in Matthew 19:6, "So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." God's desire is for marriage to be a lifelong commitment.
However, we must also be honest with you. While God can soften hearts and bring your husband back, it's crucial that both of you are willing to work on the marriage and make changes as needed. We encourage you to seek godly counsel, either from a pastor or a Christian marriage counselor, to help navigate this situation.
Also, remember that God is always with you, even in this trial. Psalm 34:18 tells us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." Trust in Him, and He will see you through this difficult time.
Lastly, ensure that you are both praying together and seeking God's will for your marriage. If your husband isn't willing to pray with you, then you continue to intercede for him and your family. Trust that God hears your prayers and will act according to His will.
Stay strong in faith and remember that God loves you and your family dearly. Keep your hope in Him, and He will see you through.
