(South Africa) I’ve been married for 10 years and divorced for 3 months. I haven’t accepted it. We had an abusive relationship –the reason for the divorce. Ever since the divorce I’ve grown closer to God but my wife has no guarantee that I won’t abuse her. I’ve been for counseling but it hasn’t changed her. She also has fallen out of love with me. The hardest part is that we still live together coz we have 2 kids involved. All I want is my wife back but she refuses to reconcile.
Dear Raven, leave it in the hands of God and don’t push too hard. Let her come around. God will come through for you.
(West Africa) My husband of a little over a year has manic depression. He is abusive and has refused to seek treatment. I am feeling overwhelmed and don’t know what else to do since I love him very much.
(South Africa) My husband is involved in adultery with two females, addicted to pornography and visiting dating websites. This has been going on for over a year. I having being praying to GOD for guidance and assistance. He is the Elder in the church, the Senior Pastor spoke to him –but there has been no change. He told me that he does not love me and is only living with me because of the children. Every second day he comes home between 21h00 to 00h00. When I ask him where he has been his reply is “Why do you wait up for me –all of a sudden you have become my PA.?” We don’t spend time alone as he avoids us spending time together. Please pray for us. We need help!
(Jamaica) I am all alone in this world. It seems as if no one cares. I am married but my husband has changed and now he does not talk to me. The only time he talks is when the bills are due or he wants money.
(USA) My husband and I have been married 24 years. My husband was a man of God when we married, but now he is deceived. He has left me 3 times for a girl who is 24 younger. Each time Aaron comes back to me, asking for forgiveness; he tells me that the Lord told him to come home. Each time he come homes she threatened to kill herself, making up stories about different problems. When my husband tells her that he loves me and wants to be with me she follows us in her car and drives by our house day and night. Then he would leave again. God has watched over my heart to forgive her. She has plenty of money and has gotten him an apartment and stays there with him even though she has her own house. When he’s with her he doesn’t talk to me. I don’t want anything bad to happen to her. I just want God to remove her from our lives and bring my husband home for good. Our children are grown and they and our grandchildren are upset. Please stand with me in prayer for Restoration of my marriage and for Tonya to know God’s grace.
(South Africa) Please pray for my son and daughter-in-law. He married a non-christian and therefore is facing continous struggles with regards to religion, because her Mum refused that she converts to Christianity, This worries me a lot as the baby needs to grow up in a good Christian home with Christian values and morals. Please Lord, make my son aware of the breaking of covenant, and condemnation.
(USA) My husband and I are trying to repair our marriage. We’re Christians but have a lot of emotional damage to overcome. He has struggled with addiction and over a year ago fell back into the addiction to drugs. Even before this he was controlling and manipulating, often claiming that my actions were a cause of his manipulations and the conflicts were a result. He seems to be sincere about wanting to change but we don’t know where to start. I also have a lot of emotional and spiritual damage and don’t know how to overcome it so that I can be more effective in helping him. He has abandoned me for up to 2 days at a time and in the process spent our entire savings on several occasions. I’ve been convicted on removing myself from family, friends, and the Church due to my emotional pain and not wanting him to get jealous and fight with me. We’re both in a lot of pain, and realize how bad things have gotten. Please, we’re desperate to restore our marriage and rebuild our relationship with God and continue His work.
Dear Rachel, it would be good if you can speak to him to book himself into rehab and go to regular meetings with him. I know your situation. May God just give you guidance. Take the fist step, my sister.
(Scotland) I recently sent in a prayer request for marriage restoration – praise the LORD we are united again. I just love the LORD so much – no more condemnation but living under the GRACE of GOD. Please now pray for us that our financial situation be restored also – that we find favor with those we owe money to – banks/family/friends/loan companies. We plead the blood of JESUS over our lives and may the LORD be glorified. Amen.
(U.S.A.) My girlfriend has already had sex before marriage. I’ve been struggling with this for many months since she told me. I’m a virgin, I’ve also struggled with pornography, so in my heart I don’t feel like a virgin. However, in my physical body I still am. I’m forgiving my girlfriend by the power of God. I want to make sure that I don’t ever remember this again. I’ve struggled a lot, but I want to love her with God’s love and the love I want to give her. I really love her; she means everything to me. Please pray for me and for this situation, please.
(USA) My wife has mood issues. I don’t believe in divorce. We have tried counseling but she feels everyone is against her because I paid the counseling bill. She gets physically abusive with me at times but is more mentally and emotionally abusive on a constant basis. I would very much appreciate your prayers.
(Australia) Please pray that God will cancel my divorce and make my husband Kas reconcile with me. Thank you in Jesus name, Amen.
My husband and I got into a discussion/argument a while ago. Things are really rough right now. He feels I haven’t been doing a great job at meeting his emotional and physical needs. I’ve been for too long focused on taking care of the kids. I got too comfortable at putting his needs aside. Too often I’ve been passive aggressive and lashed out nasty comments. I poured out my heart and soul to him, pleading my heart for him to allow me the chance to show him our marriage can be fixed. He said he loves me and wants to give me that chance, but he is afraid we’ll fall into the same trap again and things won’t change. I’m scared, and sad. I could really use prayer right now. Anytime I think of the reality of things and “what if he won’t give me another chance” and go down that way of thinking I start to have these panic attacks and feel like I’m hyperventilating. He keeps reassuring me it will be okay, which gives me hope. Please just pray.
My wife shared sad news of a Christian sister in deep trouble. She is a worship leader and a recording artist and so is her husband. They’ve had issues for some time, majoring around the wife’s ministry and platform. Their marriage is 5 years old and they have a daughter. The husband left home with their child and she has not being able to see their child for almost 6 months. This week, a video/photo of her making love to a man was published on the Internet. The man’s face was blurred so you can’t identify him but she’s easily recognised. She claims it’s her husband in their matrimonial bed in the video, who also did the filming without her knowledge. The blog where the scandal is published said the source is unknown and that she’s cheating on her husband with her drummer. Most people who know them believe it’s the husband in the video and also the one who master minded it. It’s so damaging that we need divine mercy and wisdom in this matter. Our friend has a flourishing ministry and she is anointed. Please pray for her. Below is the scripture to use:
Psalms 20:1-4 “The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee. Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion. Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.”
(United Kingdom) I have been married for 18 years. In Jan I discovered that my hubby was offering a shoulder to cry on to a female workmate. I went through his phone and found some ‘very nice ‘ texts they were exchanging. This lady has been married for 2 yrs and already is experiencing marital woes. She would call my hubby, even while he was on leave. I told my hubby that I wasn’t happy about his relationship with her and advised him to keep their communication purely work related. My husband is adamant he wasn’t doing anything wrong and that I overeacted. I believe he’s still in touch with her and being discreet with his phone (deleting all messages). Please help me pray for him. It’s making me feel insecure.
My prayer request is for Jim Kelly who is undergoing chemo for cancer, which has spread to other parts of his body. They are giving him pain medication to control the pain he is dealing with, but he still needs prayer, after all.
