Prayer for my Christian husband ### ### for God to soften his heart

Anonymous · Nov 2, 2024

My name is ###, my husband and I are having marriage problems. He moved in with his parents and got a job and I was supposed to join him. We have been arguing and he said he is done with our marriage. I have done everything trying to get him to talk to me but he is stubborn and he wears his heart on his sleeves. He has talked about filing divorce papers but this marriage can be saved and both of us being Christians I don't understand how he won't work on this. He has been married two other times and he was hurt, okay I understand this, but when left I just couldn't up and leave because I have custody of my 4-year-old grandson and plus I had to pack. He thinks I don't love him and I put my grandson before him. So instead of talking to me he is just done. He goes to church 4 hours away from here and I told my mother-in-law I just need to come up there to church that way he can't run and he will have to talk to me. All I do is cry, I miss him and love him so much. I don't want a divorce and I want to be with him. He really doesn't know what real love is and his mom told me he is just being stubborn and they tried talking to him but he just won't budge on this. He is in over $### in debt and I offered to help him. He just got a car the other day and it's already out of commission, the struts are bad on it. He is working two jobs and is paying child support and he is saving up for a place to live. I can help if he just talks to me. I am praying in Jesus Name for him and I keep asking God to soften his heart and to work on this marriage. I am asking everyone to please pray for our marriage and for God to open his eyes and soften his heart. There is no biblical reason for him to divorce me except he doesn't want to talk to me. All I do is cry. I love this man with all my heart and I know he loves me, you just can't fall out of love in two months. Our anniversary is November 11 and I have sent him 4 gifts and the only thing I want is my marriage and husband back.

We understand your pain, ###, and we're here to support and pray with you. We believe that God's heart is for marriage, and He has the power to soften hearts and bring restoration. Let's align our prayers with God's will and His Word.

Firstly, we commend you for your commitment to your marriage and for seeking the Lord in this situation. The Bible tells us, "Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate" (Matthew 19:6 WEB). Divorce should not be sought lightly, and we're glad to see your heart for reconciliation.

However, we must also address some concerns. It's important to remember that love is not just a feeling, but also a commitment and an action. While you express your love for ###, ensure that you're also showing him respect and consideration, just as you would want to receive (Ephesians 5:33 WEB).

Now, let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up ### and ###'s marriage to You. Lord, You know the pain and struggle they're going through. We ask, Lord, that You would soften ###'s heart, just as ### has been praying. Help him to see the value of their marriage and the love that You have for them both.

Lord, we ask that You would grant ### wisdom in his decisions, and that he would seek Your will above all else. We pray against any spirit of stubbornness or pride, and ask that You would replace it with humility and understanding.

We also pray for ###, Lord. Comfort her in her distress, and give her the wisdom to know how to act and what to say. Help her to show ### the love and respect that You intend for marriage.

Lord, we claim Your promise that "if two of you will agree on earth concerning anything that they will ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 18:19 WEB). We agree with ### in asking for her marriage to be restored, according to Your will.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

###, continue to stand firm in faith, trusting that God is working even when you can't see it. Keep showing love and respect to ###, and keep your heart open to God's leading. Remember, "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, and endures all things" (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 WEB). We're standing with you in prayer.

Kathy, we're here with you, feeling your pain and lifting your marriage up to the Lord. We believe in the power of prayer and the love of God that can soften hearts and bring healing. Here's what we're praying:

"Dear Lord, we come to You today, asking for Your intervention in ### and ###'s marriage. Lord, we know that You have a plan and a purpose for their union, and we ask that You would soften ###'s heart. Help him to see the love and commitment that ### has for him, and the value that You place on their marriage.

Lord, we ask for wisdom for both ### and ###. Help them to communicate effectively, to listen to each other, and to understand each other's perspectives. We pray that they would be guided by Your love and Your truth in all their interactions.

We also lift up ###'s grandchild in our prayers. Lord, we ask for Your protection and provision for this little one, and for Your wisdom for ### as she navigates this situation.

Lastly, Lord, we claim Your promise in Matthew 18:19-20, believing that if two of us agree on earth concerning anything we ask, it will be done for us by our Father in heaven. We agree with ### in asking for her marriage to be restored, according to Your will.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

###, keep trusting in God's love and His plan for your marriage. Keep loving ###, even when it's hard, and keep communicating your love and your needs to him. We're here with you, praying and believing for a miracle in your marriage."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
