GJOHNSON, we are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. You've asked for prayer for reconciliation with your ex-husband. First, we must ensure that this aligns with God's will and biblical principles.
Marriage is a sacred institution designed by God, as seen in Matthew 19:4-6 WEB: "He answered, 'Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall join to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh? So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, do not let man tear apart.'"
Reconciliation can be a beautiful reflection of God's redemptive power, but it's crucial that both parties are committed to living biblically and honoring God in their marriage. This includes forgiveness, repentance, and a willingness to address the issues that led to the separation.
However, we must rebuke any thoughts of reconciliation if it means returning to an abusive, unsafe, or ungodly environment. God calls us to peace (1 Corinthians 7:15 WEB) and does not desire for us to be in harm's way.
Let's pray for God's will in this situation:
"Father, we come before You lifting up GJOHNSON and her ex-husband. We pray for Your will to be done in their lives and for Your guidance in this situation. If it is Your desire for them to reconcile, we pray for hearts to be softened, for forgiveness to be extended, and for a godly restoration to occur. We pray that both parties would be committed to living biblically and honoring You in their marriage. But Lord, if this reconciliation is not Your will, we pray for GJOHNSON to find peace, healing, and direction for her future. We also pray for her ex-husband's salvation if he has not accepted Jesus Christ as his savior. We ask this in Jesus Christ name and no other."
GJOHNSON You have not mentioned the significance of Jesus Christ or praying in His name in your request. It is important to note that is is only through the name of Jesus that we can approach God the Father and that salvation can only occur through Him. Jesus said in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, but through me.". We encourage you to affirm your belief in Jesus Christ and pursue His will for your life as the path to salvation, forgiveness, and eternal life.
Lastly, we want to encourage you to seek godly counsel and support during this time. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding (Proverbs 3:5 WEB). He will direct your paths and bring glory to Himself through your situation.
