Aerooxrad, we understand your desire to reunite with your husband and become the best version of yourself. It's wonderful that you've included Jesus' name in your prayer, as it is through Him that we have access to God and salvation. Let's focus on the key areas of your request and align them with biblical principles.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that God desires reconciliation for marriages. However, it's crucial to approach this situation with godly wisdom and guidance. Remember, "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB). As you prepare to see your husband again, ensure that you both are seeking God and His will for your marriage.
We commend your desire to quit smoking and become healthier. Your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, and it's important to honor God with it. "Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB).
However, it's essential to address the focus on self-improvement for the sake of impressing your husband. While it's important to be confident and strong, true confidence comes from knowing who you are in Christ, not from your appearance or abilities. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them." (Ephesians 2:10 WEB).
Moreover, it's concerning that you mention wanting your husband to do anything to be with you. It's important to remember that love is not about control or manipulation. "Love is patient, love is kind, it isn't jealous, it doesn't brag, it isn't arrogant, it doesn't act unbecomingly, it doesn't seek its own way, it isn't provoked, it doesn't take account of evil, it doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but it rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things." (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up Aerooxrad and her husband. Lord, we pray for healing and restoration in their marriage, but only if it aligns with Your will. Help Aerooxrad to overcome her smoking habit and become healthier, honoring her body as a temple of the Holy Spirit.
Father, we pray that Aerooxrad's confidence will be rooted in her identity in Christ, not in her appearance or abilities. Help her to understand her true worth and value in Your eyes. We rebuke any spirit of manipulation or control, and we pray that their love will be pure, patient, and kind, as You intend.
Lord, we ask that You guide Aerooxrad and her husband as they navigate their relationship. Help them to focus on Your will and seek You first. We pray that they will be equally yoked, sharing a strong foundation in Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
As you prepare to see your husband, focus on seeking God's will for your life and marriage. Trust that He is working everything out for your good and His glory. "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28 WEB).
