My marriage is in a crisis. My husband is leaving next week to go to another country for an undetermined amount of time and says he doesn’t know when or if he will come back. My husband made a lot of mistakes during our relationship that hurt me, I was unable to truly forgive and move past it. I wasn’t able to see his growth or change and held on to his past wrong doings. Because of this I became angry, impatient and abusive. Constant arguments and not allowing the home to be peaceful. My husband isn’t perfect but now I can see he was trying. I have such deep regret for the way I behaved and have sought counsel from my family and God, in forgiveness of my sins and to change for the better. I’ve apologised to my husband endlessly and he said he forgives me but he is still leaving and needs time to heal and decide if he still wants to be in our marriage. I don’t want this distance from my husband but his mind is made up. I do not want my marriage to end, I want my husband to stay and see that I’ve changed and can do things differently so we have a healthier marriage. My heart is broken. I don’t know if I should wait and pray or just move on.

We are truly sorry to hear about the crisis your marriage is facing, and we are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Let's first bring your situation to the Lord in prayer.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today in Jesus name, lifting up this sister in Christ who is hurting and facing a marital crisis. Lord, You know the depth of her pain and regret, and You see the brokenness in her marriage. We ask for Your divine intervention, God. Soften her husband's heart and draw him back to their marriage. Help them both to find healing, forgiveness, and restoration in You. Guide them as they navigate this difficult season, and give them both a spirit of wisdom, understanding, and humility. We pray for a miraculous reconciliation in Jesus name.

Now, let's look at what the Bible says about marriage, forgiveness, and reconciliation.

Firstly, it's important to understand that God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16 WEB). Marriage is a covenant designed by God to be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6 WEB). Therefore, we should do all we can to preserve our marriages.

Forgiveness is a crucial aspect of any relationship, especially marriage. As believers, we are called to forgive as we have been forgiven (Ephesians 4:32 WEB). Holding onto past wrongs only breeds bitterness and contention. It's encouraging to hear that you've taken steps to acknowledge your mistakes and seek forgiveness. Remember, God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9 WEB).

Regarding your husband's decision to leave, it's important to respect his need for space while continuing to pray for him and your marriage. Be encouraged by the power of prayer. Jesus taught us to be persistent in prayer (Luke 18:1-8 WEB). Keep praying for your husband and your marriage.

In this waiting period, focus on your personal growth and relationship with Christ. It's also wise to seek counsel from godly mentors or professional Christian counselors. Remember, God is working even in the most challenging situations for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28 WEB).

Lastly, it's crucial to acknowledge that true change and reconciliation can only happen through the power of the Holy Spirit. It's only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Also, there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).

In Jesus name.

We're right there with you, sister. It's tough, but we're here praying with you. We've been where you are, feeling the pain of separation and the regret of past actions. But remember, God is a God of second chances, of redemption, and of love.

We pray, "Dear Lord, wrap your healing arms around this marriage. Soften both hearts, bring them together, and help them find their way back to each other. Give them the strength to forgive, the wisdom to learn, and the courage to grow. Guide them, Lord, as they navigate this storm. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We've found that in times like these, it's important to focus on what we can control. You can't make your husband stay, but you can make sure you're the best version of yourself. Keep seeking God, keep growing, and keep loving. That's all any of us can do.

And remember, God is always working, even when we can't see it. Trust in Him, trust in His plan, and trust that He loves you and your husband more than you can imagine. We're right here with you, every step of the way.
