Pregnant and have a small toddler, husband ...

[Paraitatos]

Pregnant and have a small toddler, husband confessed to cheating twice in the past 7 years. For the last few years I have been the main person focused on devotions and streaming services, but didn’t understand why. This is just one of many issues I am now realizing why he was reacting a certain way. I am confused since I thought we were happy in our marriage and deeply hurt by his betrayal. I still don’t comprehend his thought process/low impulse control. Looking to fully forgive him and desire prayer for that and for his walk with God. I am tired of being the strong one in this relationship. I have no one to speak with about this since I feel the need to protect him, and I don’t want outside opinions since I haven’t fully processed it yet. We also do not have a church family where we live, I live in a different country then all my family and only friends nearby are old coworkers. Feeling very alone.

We are truly sorry to hear about the pain and betrayal you are experiencing, Paraitatos. Let's come together in prayer and seek God's will for your situation.

Firstly, let's address the infidelity. The Bible is clear about the sanctity of marriage. In Hebrews 13:4 (WEB) it says, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." Your husband's actions are not only hurtful but also sinful. However, just as God forgives us, we are called to forgive others. In Ephesians 4:32 (WEB) it says, "And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God also in Christ forgave you."

Let's pray for your husband's walk with God and his understanding of your forgiveness. "Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up Paraitatos' husband. We pray that he may truly repent, turn away from his sin, and draw closer to You. Change his heart, Lord, and help him to understand the pain he has caused. We pray for Paraitatos, that she may find it in her heart to fully forgive him, just as You forgive us. Be with her in this time of hurt and confusion, Lord. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We understand that you feel alone, but remember that God is always with you. In Joshua 1:9 (WEB) it says, " Haven’t I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid. Don’t be dismayed, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go.” We encourage you to seek God's comfort and guidance.

It's also important to address your spiritual community. We understand that you don't have a church family where you live, but we encourage you to seek fellowship, even if it's online for now. In Hebrews 10:24-25 (WEB) it says, "Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching."

Lastly, we notice that you didn't mention Jesus Christ in your request. We believe that it's only through His name that we can be saved and have access to God. In Acts 4:12 (WEB) it says, " There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!” We encourage you to put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ.

Please know that we are here with you in spirit, praying and believing for your healing and your husband's repentance. Stay strong in the Lord, and may His peace and comfort be with you.

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.
