prayer for my marriage

Anonymous · Dec 7, 2024

I am coming here today so confused. My husband says he loves me but in a few days, even the same day, he treats me badly. He's verbally abusive, treats me as if I'm beneath him, and I should bow down, hush, and not say anything, just accept it. But I respond sometimes in anger, really, I lash out in pain because it hurts to love him so much and he treats me this way. I have helped him at his lowest, helped him rise above, then when I was at my lowest, he didn't help me. He talked badly about me, told me I was useless to him, called me every bad name he could. Called me names so much that I didn't know what to answer to. Talked about my dead parents to hurt me. Calls me crippled because I walk with bowlegs. We even had a house fire, and I helped get everything done to get our house fixed, and now it's almost done. Now he wants to put me out, told me he wanted to rebuild away from me. And this all because I asked for money from our house fire. He took most and did what he wanted to, and when they sent more, he doesn't think I deserve anything, and I was the one who lost it all, not him. And I have to deal with drunken behavior every day. I love him but I am drained!!!!!!!

We are truly saddened to hear about the pain and confusion you're experiencing in your marriage. Let's bring your situation before the Lord in prayer and seek His wisdom and guidance.

Firstly, it's crucial to address the abuse you're facing. The Bible tells us that a husband should love his wife just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (Ephesians 5:25 WEB). The behavior you're describing is not loving or Christ-like, and it is not acceptable. Verbal abuse and manipulation are serious issues that need to be addressed promptly.

Let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today, lifting up our sister in Christ who is hurting and confused in her marriage. Lord, You know the pain and suffering she is experiencing at the hands of her husband. We pray for Your intervention and protection over her. Give her the strength to stand up for herself and wisdom to know how to handle this situation.

Lord, we also pray for her husband. We pray that You will soften his heart and convict him of his actions. Help him to see the pain he is causing and lead him to true repentance. Change his heart, Lord, and make him a vessel of Your love and kindness, not cruelty and abuse.

Father, guide our sister. Show her the steps she needs to take. Give her discernment and courage to do what is right and honorable before You. Help her to find peace and comfort in You, regardless of her circumstances.

Finally, we pray that their marriage would be transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. There is no other name by which they we be saved. We pray this marriage will honor God by showing how a healthy respectful Christian husband and wife interact. As we pray, we know that He is able to work miracles and bring about redemption.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Now, let's address some biblical principles. The Bible tells us that submission is not silent compliance to sin or abuse (1 Peter 3:1-2 WEB). It is not God's will for you to be treated with disrespect and cruelty. While the Bible instructs wives to submit to their husbands, it also instructs husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church (Colossians 3:19 WEB).

We strongly encourage you to seek help from local church leaders, trusted Christian friends, godly parents or relatives, or a Christian counselor. You do not have to face this alone. Indicating a trusted and known loving pastor or mentor that has a solid reputation. It is important to seek refuge, counsel, and safety.

Lastly, remember that God loves you deeply and He wants what is best for you. Trust in Him and His timing. He is faithful, and He will see you through this storm.

We are praying for you, and we hope that you will continue to reach out and seek godly counsel and support. You are not alone.

We're here with you, dear friend, in this storm of confusion and pain. We've been hearing your heart's cry, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We're lifting you up in prayer, just as we are.

Firstly, we want to remind you of your worth in God's eyes. You are His beloved daughter, created in His image, and He loves you dearly. The way your husband is treating you is not a reflection of your worth or God's love for you. It's important to remember that you deserve to be treated with kindness, respect, and love - just as God loves you.

We're praying that God will give you the strength to stand up for yourself and seek help. We're not talking about fighting back or being disrespectful, but rather finding your voice and speaking the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15). We're also praying for your husband. We believe in the power of prayer to change hearts and situations. We're asking God to soften your husband's heart, to convict him of his actions, and to lead him to true repentance.

Please, please, reach out to trusted Christian friends, family, or a pastor. You don't have to face this alone. There are safe places and people who can provide you with counsel and support. Remember, God is with you in this, and He will never leave you or forsake you (Hebrews 13:5-6). Trust in Him, and trust in His timing.

We're here for you, and we'll continue to lift you up in prayer. You are loved, valued, and not alone.
