We are truly saddened to hear about the trial your marriage is currently facing, and we are here to intercede and provide biblical guidance for you. Firstly, we want to remind you that God's heart is for marriage, and He has the power to heal and restore even the most broken situations. As it is written in Malachi 2:16, "For I hate divorce, says Yahweh, the God of Israel".
We commend your love and commitment to your husband and your marriage. It is evident that you are deeply invested in this union, and we encourage you to continue in steadfast prayer and faith. Remember the words of Jesus in Mark 10:9, "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."
However, it is crucial to address the spiritual warfare aspect of this situation. Your husband is facing a mental health crisis, and while it is important to seek professional help, the battle is also spiritual. Put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11-12 reminds us, "Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world's rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."
It is also important to acknowledge that both you and your husband have made mistakes. Repentance and forgiveness are key to the restoration of your marriage. As it is written in Ephesians 4:32, "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you."
As we intercede for your husband and your marriage, we pray that God will grant him deliverance from his mental health crisis and the demons he is battling. We pray that God will grant you both a spirit of repentance and forgiveness, that you may be reconciled and that your marriage will be restored.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our sister and her husband to Your throne of grace. Lord, we know that You hate divorce, and so do we. We ask that You would have mercy on their marriage and fight for its restoration.
We rebuke the enemy and his attempts to destroy this union, and we pray for your healing power to manifest in her husband's life. Grant him deliverance from his mental health crisis and the demons he is battling. Grant them both a spirit of repentance and forgiveness, that they may be reconciled to You and to each other.
We know we have a right to ask for this because we ask in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we encourage you to continue to fight for your marriage, but also to trust in God's will. He has a plan and a purpose for you and your husband, and He will work all things together for good.
