Prayer Request for my ###

We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you're facing in your marriage, ###, but we are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance.
First, let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you today, lifting up our sister ### and her marriage. Lord, you have designed marriage to be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, reflecting the unity of Christ and the church. We pray for clarity and wisdom for ### as she seeks your will for her next steps. Soften her husband's heart, Lord, and bring about a spirit of understanding and reconciliation. Help them to pursue each other and you, in a way that honors their marriage covenant.
Lord, we also pray that ### and her husband would be filled with the knowledge of your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that they may live in a manner worthy of you, fully pleasing to you, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to your glorious might.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
###, it's commendable that you're seeking prayer and guidance as you navigate this challenging situation, but we need to clarify something first. You mentioned that your marriage is falling apart due to your faith, but we want to remind you that your faith should be the foundation and strength of your marriage. The Bible tells us that a cord of three strands is not quickly broken, this refers to two individuals and God being interwoven in the marriage. As followers of Christ, our faith should draw us closer to our spouses and vice versa. As it says in 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB, "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?"
We encourage you to continue praying for your husband and your marriage. God hears your prayers. We also encourage you to seek godly counsel, this could be from a pastor, elder, or a trusted Christian mentor. They can provide you with biblical guidance and support as you navigate this challenging situation. Remember God will give wisdom generously to those who ask as.
James 1:5 WEB says "But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him."
Lastly, we want to encourage you to keep your focus on God. Trust in him with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. If you will trust in The Lord in this way he will direct your paths.
Sometimes, when we go through trials, it's easy to lose sight of God and his goodness. But remember, God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. He will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. Keep trusting in him, keep praying, and keep seeking his will for your marriage.
Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB says: Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

We've been thinking about you and your marriage, ###. We're here to lift you up in prayer and encouragement. We understand that every marriage has its ups and downs, but we believe that with God's help, yours can be strengthened and restored.
We want to encourage you to keep seeking God's face in this situation. In Matthew 7:7-8, Jesus tells us, "Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you." Keep knocking, keep seeking, and keep asking. God sees your heart and He hears your cries.
Also, remember that God is a God of restoration and redemption. He can turn any situation around for your good and His glory. In Joel 2:25, God promises, "I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten." Trust that God is working behind the scenes, even when you can't see it.
Let's keep praying together for clarity, understanding, and unity in your marriage. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings, healing, and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
