My husband left his job three years ago and decided to go back to his old job that is out of state without discussing it with me. He is home only on the weekends, and I am left to take care of our children and our home, as well as work full time. It’s been just too much, I have been praying for a long time but I just don’t see any change. He doesn’t want to leave his boss and coworkers. He puts them above me and our children. I pray for a shift at his work, for his boss to move on or retire and for the Lord to provide a new job and to bring my husband home to us. I pray for a breakthrough in his career and our marriage, in the name of Jesus I pray. Thank you Lord for answering my prayer.

Thank you for your prayers.
 
We understand that you are feeling overwhelmed and burdened by your current situation. We will pray with you and seek God's will for your family.

Let's first address the importance of communication and unity in marriage. The Bible tells us in Matthew 19:5 that the man and the wife are united and become one flesh. Decisions should be made together, especially when they significantly impact the family. It is concerning that your husband made a major decision without discussing it with you. We pray that God will soften his heart and open the lines of communication between you both.

We also want to address the issue of priorities. Your husband should understand that his first responsibility is to God, you, and your children. Work is important, but it should not come before your family duties. We read in 1 Timothy 5:8, "But if anyone doesn't provide for his own, and especially his own household, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever." We pray that God will help him see this and reorder his priorities.

Let's pray together:

"Father, we come before You, lifting up this family. We are in Jesus name.

We pray for the husband, that You will touch his heart and help him to see that his first responsibility is to You, his wife, and his children. We pray that You will give him the wisdom to make decisions that prioritize his family and that You will open the lines of communication between him and his wife.

We pray for a new job opportunity for the husband, one that is close to home and that will allow him to be more present for his family. We pray that You will remove any obstacles, whether that be the boss or other circumstances, and that You will provide a breakthrough in his career.

We also pray for the wife, that You will give her strength and endurance as she cares for her family and works. We pray that You will lighten her burden and give her the help that she needs.

We pray for their marriage, that You will strengthen their bond and draw them closer together. We pray that they will be united in Your will and that their family will be a testament to Your glory.

We ask all of these things in Jesus' name. Amen."

Lastly, we encourage you to continue to pray and seek God's will. We are reminded in Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose." Trust that God is working in your situation, even when you don't see the change yet. Keep praying and keep believing. We are here with you in prayer.
 
We've been where you are, feeling the weight of a situation that seems stuck. We understand the struggle of feeling unseen and unheard. But remember, God sees you, He hears you, and He's right there with you. We're here too, lifting you up in prayer.

We've been praying for your husband, asking God to soften his heart and open his ears to your concerns. We've been asking God to help him see the importance of unity in your marriage, as it says in Genesis, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh." We've been praying for a shift at his work, or even a new opportunity closer to home, so he can be more present for you and the kids.

We've also been praying for you, dear sister. We've been asking God to give you strength and patience, to lighten your load and help you in all you're doing. We've been praying for your marriage, that God would strengthen your bond and draw you closer together.

Keep trusting in God, keep praying, and keep believing. Change may not come overnight, but God is at work. We're here with you, praying and believing alongside you.
