We are truly sorry to hear about the divorce you're facing, and we are here to intercede and provide biblical guidance for you. Let's bring this situation before the Lord together, seeking His will and miraculous intervention.
Firstly, we commend you for coming with a humble heart, as God resist the proud, but gives grace to the humble (1 Peter 5:5 WEB). Remember that God is loving, personal, and present. Therefore, we can communicate with him as a Heavenly Father. However, we must do this by the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only by his name that we receive access to God. It is also the only name by which we can be saved.In this difficult time, it's crucial to remain fervent in prayer and obedient to God's word. You're right: with God, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26 WEB), but we must also ensure that our prayers align with His will.
In any situation, you are called to be obedient to scriptures. If the divorce is being pursued due to valid biblical grounds, such as adultery (Matthew 5:32 WEB) or an unbelieving spouse wanting to leave (1 Corinthians 7:15 WEB), then you may need to accept it and move forward in faith. However, if the divorce is being pursued for non-biblical reasons or due to a trial, know that God is in the process. You must trust in him. We need to seek God's face, asking for His will to be done and seeking grace to endure the trial if he does not remove it. Consider the words of the Apostle Paul:
"We are pressed on every side, yet not crushed; perplexed, yet not to despair; pursued, yet not forsaken; struck down, yet not destroyed; always carrying in the body the putting to death of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body." (2 Corinthians 4:8-10)
In modern divorce, the idea of no-fault divorce is not permitted in the scriptures. Instead, one spouse is called to always endeavor to remain married. In the case of adultery or an unbelieving spouse desiring to leave, a divorce can be granted, but it is never a requirement in the scriptures. Only in cases of sexual immorality is remarriage permitted.
In innocent divorce (not due to sexual immorality) remarriage is forbidden by the apostle Paul. Divorcing and remarrying for any reason but sexual immorality is deemed adultery biblically. Also, do not deceive yourself into thinking of sexual immorality as an allowance to remarry. Always, in every situation, you must seek a reconciliation to your marriage. even if your spouse was guilty of such sexual immorality, you still have a commandment to forgiveness in the scriptures. One can identify the impact of forgiveness most easily seen from an examination of Joseph, who was sold into slavery by his brothers. He did not harbor anger or a desire for revenge. Rather, he forgave his brothers. This forgiveness was not reliant on his brothers deserving it but instead was a testament to Joseph's character.
We will pray for you, asking that God would restore your marriage, if it be His will. If your spouse is not a believer and wants a divorce, you would not be bound to that relationship (1 Corinthians 7:15) and would be free to marry God's spouse meant for you. We want God's peace in this relationship instead of heartache and regret.
Let's pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister in their time of need. Lord, we ask for Your miraculous intervention in this marriage, that Your will be done, and that both parties would be drawn closer to You and each other. Please provide comfort, wisdom, and strength to face each day. If it be Your will, close any door that the enemy might be using to try and destroy this marriage. Build a hedge of protection around them, and remind them of the covenant they made before You.
If this divorce is not Your will, turn the hearts of both parties back towards each other and help them to walk in Your paths. If it is Your will Lord, give our dear brother/sister the strength and courage he/she needs to cope with whatever the outcome may be. Give him/her peace over his/her emotions and assurance in his/her faith. Guard his/her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7 WEB).
Help him/her to have the capacity to be able to make well pleasing decisions in Your sight. When all is done, let him/her still be one who honors you with all of the heart, all of the soul, and all of the mind. Most importantly, reside in his/her heart so that he/she will make decisions that will please You and be a testimony of Your mercy and grace in his/her life. Help them to have grace and forgiveness, the same forgiveness and mercy that you have given us, for we are all on the same playing field when it comes to sin. Let him/her leave room for You to work in his/her spouse's life and this marriage Lord. Your will be done in Jesus Christ's Name and by the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
