How do I know if my boyfriend is God’s choice for me? We were to get married the year Hurricane Sandy hit so we rescheduled the wedding. Days before the second date, I got nervous about how I’d look in the dress so when Jeff saw that, the wedding was called off. After that, I became depressed and I stayed at my sister’s house for 3 months. While there, I begged Jeff to let me come back home. He said that if I come back, I can’t tell him we’re living in sin because we’re not married or ask him to come to church because he’s not a Christian and he doesn’t believe in religion. Also he told me not to drag my family into issues concerning us.
I went back home and got another job. The one I was working at had asked me to leave because I had become depressed and wasn’t able to do my job properly. I went back to Jeff and got another job. In August 2014, I got depressed again and unable to function well at work. I was asked to take off time from Dec. 2014 and just was allowed to come back to work on 1/29/15. I’m not sleeping at all, feel sad and hopeless. I love Jeff dearly. We’ve been living together for 6 years and in April 2015 it’ll be 9 years that I’ve known him. I’ve gone to a psychologist and psychiatrist but they don’t believe in God. I don’t want to live on pills to be in a good mood.
Please help me. What can I do? Is God mad at me? Please help me. I keep praying that Jeff will become a Christian so we can worship God together in church. I love him dearly. I’m praying that we can get married and live as husband and wife. Please pray for me. I need a miracle. Thanks so much.
Please pray for healing and restoration in our marriage of 4 years. My wife came back from a trip this fall and said that our marriage was a mistake and that it never should have happened. She feels like I’m not what she wants in a husband or spouse, as I’ve made many mistakes. She is believing lies from the devil as well her parents!
She has brought up divorce for 4 months, however, we’re attending marriage counseling together, but she doesn’t want to put the effort into our marriage to rebuild us and says it will be easier to just be friends. I believe that He can and will restore our marriage, but she’s lost spiritually and emotionally. Please pray that He would soften her heart with a spirit of hope and forgiveness as she’s so bitter and unforgiving. Please pray that we’ll continue to become the man and woman God calls us to be.
Help me to earn back the love of my wife …Help to heal me and save our 25 year marriage.
My fiancé and I have been together for 2 and half years. I love her with all my heart. I can’t imagine spending life without her. I’m a practicing Catholic Christian because of my study of the Sacred Scriptures and the Catholic Church is where I experience intimacy with Jesus. My fiancé is a Pentecostal Christian. She experiences intimacy with Jesus. She doesn’t like the formality of Catholic worship and sincerely believes that the Catholic Church has practices and teachings that are unbiblical.
For the past 2 and a half years, we’ve respected each others traditions. Every week I’d attend a Church of my fiancé’s choosing and I’d attend Mass. My fiancé also attended Mass with me many weekends. In January, my fiancé told me that in order for us to get married, I’ll have to leave the Catholic Church. I won’t be allowed to attend Mass, go to confession, do Eucharistic adoration, etc. I know this is something I cannot do (at least now) because of my deeply held convictions and my sincere desire to worship Jesus and the joy I experience when receiving him in the Eucharist. To leave Catholicism and abandon my faith for anything in this world -even something as special as the woman I pledged I would love forever – would be something I couldn’t live with.
To make things worse, a protestant minister told us we shouldn’t marry if we’re “unequally yoked.” We had a Catholic Priest encourage my fiancé to convert. And we had a pre-marital counselor tell us that the only way to be successful in marriage is to find a “common church.” I do have some hope after reading this blog. I’ve also read the Catholic Catechism, which says that different denominations is not an insurmountable obstacle to marriage. And the Bible clearly states that it’s okay to be married to unbelievers. But the recent bad advice we’ve received from pastors and counselors has impacted my fiancé’s thinking on this issue.
We’re in deep need of prayer. Can you pray the following for us during this difficult time: –That the Holy Spirit will fill our hearts and that unity will enter our relationship. –That we’ll be able to respect and encourage each other’s personal relationship with Jesus. –That the Lord will soften our hearts and open our minds to the possibility of living different faith traditions. — That we’ll focus on the commonalities in our faith – prayer, Sacred Scripture, worship music, service and love for others, and more. –That faith will unite us in a common purpose and that we won’t allow the devil to divide us. I offer these prayers in the name of Jesus and I thank all of you for keeping us in your prayers.
I know there are hundreds of requests! Satan is after the marriage covenant! Please pray for my husband Doug, he wants a divorce after a very short marriage. This is not Gods will. Pray God will soften his heart. Thank you!
My husband of 24 years walked out on me and our 8 children back in June of this past year. He is so angry, bitter, disrespectful to me and screams at the kids. He has put up huge walls and his heart is hard. Please pray for him and for our marriage to be restored. Pray we will experience Agape love yet again.
May you please help me pray for God to heal our marriage. I would like my husband to forgive me and I would like God to deliver us from strife and bitterness in our marriage. Thank you so much.
Please pray for my marriage. I have been married for the past 4 years and I have felt so empty for the entire time. Please pray for spiritual and emotional healing. I feel my marriage is lacking intimacy and passion. We don’t show much interest in each other in that aspect and it hurts. We hardly even kiss. Lord, please step in. I need you to fix us. Help Lord, I am hurting. Help both of us to understand each other and meet each others needs. Please save my marriage. Amen.
I’m at a place I have been off and on for years now. Bewildered, not sure what to do… my spouse has anger problems, which then started an onset of problems with me. The first 5 years there were no cross words, we were in tune with each other, had a closer relationship with God, were friends, partners, loved each other, never wanted to be apart, could talk to and with each other, valued each other’s opinions and perspective views. Then it seems we were under Spiritual attack and hit from very side in every other area of our lives… this has gone on for more than 7 years. It has not only affected me, but my child as well. It has changed who I am, the true character I was to the core of my being. My child now a young adult is, I feel, not the same person would of been without dealing also with the emotional abuse in our home.
Of course I cannot control him, I cannot control his high levels of frustration, financial pressures, physical aging, I cannot handle how he handles situations. I too handle situations not so good either… things have rub off on me. I’ve changed too. Just don’t know what to do, not in a financial position to leave.
Please pray for our family and marriage have been through a lot, still going through it. Want to get some help yet I don’t feel like there is anyone we can turn to as a couple or family that truly has the Spiritual walk and love of God in them, that can have the trust, respect or admiration of my husband.
Wish I could leave tonight, yet cannot, wish I could go somewhere for a few months, yet again cannot… too many responsibilities here to take care of.
Appreciate the Prayers and any Intercession <3 in the name of Jesus, through the Spirit of God our Father and Redeemer <3 God Bless those and protect any of those who choose to pray for us <3
Dear God, I want to take this opportunity to thank you for blessing me with a wonderful husband who is so caring and giving to our son and me, as well as his mother and brothers. Ever since I lost my job in October last year, he has been the sole provider in our home and I feel so helpless because I can see the load is taking a toll on him. I see how much he is struggling to provide for us, as well as his mother and brothers. I am afraid that this may affect our relationship. He has become distant lately.
Dear Lord, I ask that you give him strength to press on and never give up, give him the patience and faith to know that You are in control and that You are working miracles in the background. I know You will bless me with a better job. Please give us the strength to overcome these challenges together and never give up on each other. I know very soon the storm will be over and our season of bloom will arrive, but for now till then, help us to endure it together. Amen.
Please pray for our marriage and our family. God’s will be done and that our marriage will continue to grow and strengthen in HIS love and mercy. Let us keep our love anew and build upon the foundation God has given us.
My husband had not ever indicated he was thinking of leaving. On Jan 13 after spending time with his family he came home and packed up and left. No warning. I look back and I see where I failed. He just wants out. He is angry and has been harboring unforgiveness essentially for things I didn’t know I did.
I am actively pursuing better behavior through counseling, prayer, and I want to save my marriage. I’m asking everyone to pray for his heart condition. He won’t even talk to me. Less than 4 weeks ago we were intimate. I love him so much… I didn’t know he was unhappy.
My wife and I have been apart for last 4 months. We have 4 children. I’m a Christian but struggling with alcohol. Pray that we may work it out as I finish my 90 days in rehabilitation.
Please continue to pray for Anna and Brandon’s marriage. Their son, Nehemiah, just one month old, needs his parents.
Please pray for my son, Mark. He struggles daily with self harming and mutilation. Father God, I pray Mark will understand the importance of taking care of his body—the temple of the Holy Spirit—for the glory of God. Pray that he will practice self-control and that you will heal those places in him that desire to self harm. Rom. 12:1-2; 1 Cor. 6:19-20, 9:27. In Jesus name, amen
