We join you, Dweryall, in lifting up your prayer for improved communication with your husband. We stand with you in the name of Jesus, who is the cornerstone of a strong and godly marriage.
Firstly, we commend you for bringing your concerns to God in prayer. It is through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father, as it is written in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"
In addressing your concern, we recall the wisdom of Ephesians 4:29 (WEB), "Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear." Open and honest communication is indeed crucial, and it should be conducted with kindness, understanding, and love, just as you've prayed.
We encourage both of you to be swift to hear and slow to speak, as advised in James 1:19 (WEB), "So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger; for the anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God." This will help in understanding each other better and rebuilding the foundation of trust and intimacy in your marriage.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up Dweryall and her husband. We ask, Lord, that You soften his heart and grant him the courage to speak openly with her. Guide his words to be kind and understanding, and help them to listen to each other with love and empathy. Remove any barriers that may be hindering their connection, and allow them to rebuild a strong foundation of trust and intimacy through honest conversation. We pray this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Continue to trust in the Lord, Dweryall, and remain steadfast in prayer. We believe that God, who has begun a good work in your marriage, will be faithful to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6, WEB). Stay encouraged, and may the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7, WEB).
