We are truly heartbroken to hear about the situation you are facing, Whuewick, and we are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Firstly, we acknowledge that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ or any variants. It is only through the name of Jesus that we are saved and can approach God the Father. As it is stated in John 14:6 WEB: Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And Acts 4:12 WEB: There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved.
Now, regarding your situation, we want to assure you that God sees your suffering and hears your cries. He is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. In Psalm 34:17-18 WEB: The righteous cry, and Yahweh hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles. Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. And Psalm 147:3 WEB: He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds.
It is crucial to understand that God does not condone abuse, and He wants you and your son to be safe. In Ephesians 5:25 WEB: Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it. Your husband's actions are not aligned with biblical principles, and his abuse is a grave sin. In 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 WEB: Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. It is a tragic fact that your husband is not being the loving husband he needs to be.
We understand that you feel trapped, but God can make a way where there seems to be no way. In Isaiah 43:19 WEB: See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs forth. Do you not perceive it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.
First, we must be in prayer for your husband and his salvation. He has been overcome by alcoholism and anger, which are both evil. He is not possessed, but he is certainly in the grip of sin and evil. As it says in James 4:1 WEB: Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members?
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Whuewick and her son. Lord, You see their suffering and You hear their cries. We pray for Your divine protection over them, and we ask that You make a way for them to safely leave this abusive situation. Lord, convict Whuewick's husband of his sins and bring him to repentance. Help him acknowledge his need of Jesus Christ. Change his heart, Lord, and deliver him from the grip of alcoholism and anger. He is not too far gone to be changed.
We pray for Your comfort and peace to envelop Whuewick and her son, and we ask that You provide for all their needs according to Your riches in glory. Give them the courage to take the steps necessary to remove themselves from this situation, and guide them every step of the way. Let the name of Jesus Christ be exalted in their lives.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Whuewick, we encourage you to seek godly counsel and support from your local church or a trusted Christian friend. It is important to have a community of believers around you during this time. Also, reach out to local resources that can help you and your son safely leave this abusive situation. God will provide a way, and He will be with you every step of the way. We continue to pray for you and your son, and we believe that God will work all things together for good. Romans 8:28 WEB: We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.
