I divorced my husband 2 years ago due to his drug abuse…I had to leave to protect our handicapped son & myself, but I’ve never stopped loving him. This year he became sober, gave his life to Christ, & is participating in 12 step recovery. I reached out to him recently & discovered he is in love with someone else. He briefly spoke of a possible reconciliation between us, but later said he’s confused & doesn’t know if we’re on the same life path anymore…my heart is breaking all over again! Please pray for reconciliation for our family & God’s will be done in our lives.
J, I will pray for you: Oh Father, Please hear the cry of J’s heart. I lift up her marriage to You. You are the Creator of all, the Creator of man and woman, marriage, and husband and wife. Marriage is Your creation and is by Your design. We can all clearly see that marriage is of great importance to You, as it is a theme that flows through Your Word from Genesis to Revelation. I know that it is Your heart that all struggling marriages be redeemed and restored. You are the Great Healer, fully able to heal any broken marriage in the blink of an eye. You are fully able to miraculously exchange our heart of stone for a heart of flesh, as you did for J’s husband earlier this year. And even though J and her husband are legally divorced, reversing that is no problem for You to accomplish as You work miraculously within their lives.
I ask You to intervene in a powerful way in the life of J’s husband, and also in J’s life. Capture their attention and draw it towards You. Captivate each of their hearts, that they each fall deeply in love with You. Come close to them so that they each know You intimately as their Father. And then bring Your healing hand upon their relationship and restore it in a powerful way that brings great glory to Your Name.
I ask these things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus! Amen!!!
My wife and I have been married for 13 years. We separated about 1 1/2 months ago (she moved). In Jan 2015, I had an affair, which was discovered in about May 2015. We went to weekly marriage counseling, which seemed to help a lot. There were struggles; we vowed to continue working through the issues. In Jan 2016, I made a very crucial mistake, and called the lady I had the affair with, really to see how her professional career had progressed, who at this point had moved to another state. My wife found out that the call was made, and instantly discontinued marriage counseling. Over the years I’ve made many mistakes.
In Jul 2016, I began individual counseling. Sept 2016, my wife moved out. Before she moved out, we went in for a pre-separation to shape how we’d conduct ourselves during this unspecified period of time. We agreed to continue to work on ourselves individually. Four days ago, my wife stated very resolutely, she wanted a divorce. This was a BOMBSHELL. I have been reeling since then. Contemplated suicide… I’ve been a complete mess since then. She hasn’t filed yet, but said it would be soon.
I pray God’s divine intervention in this matter… She signed a 6 month lease, so I thought she would allow more time to see the changes in my life and at some point we’d reconcile, and start working on full restoration. I would like you to join me in prayer that her heart and mind would be changed by God’s Spirit of love, forgiveness and reconciliation. Amen.
Russell, I will be praying for you!!!!! I too was an unfaithful spouse and can relate to much of what you are sharing. I also have been the spouse that was cheated on so I can also understand the feelings your wife is likely experiencing. Infidelity is so destructive and I see now how the devil uses temptation to try and destroy one of the greatest gifts God created…. marriage! I can say that prayer is what kept me from following through with suicidal thoughts, and prayer is what is helping me get up every day. I struggle with forgiving myself but know that God already has and I am beyond thankful for that blessing. Russell, I pray that you will continue to turn to the Lord for strength and wisdom as you and your wife move forward. I pray that God will speak to HER heart and give her strength and wisdom as well to find forgiveness in her heart. I pray that she will be able to understand that your recent contact was not in anyway a malicious act but rather you just reaching out to make sure this woman was okay. I pray that you both find peace and happiness and that God’s power will bring the two of you back together in marriage!
Continued prayer for Todd and Alex –marriage separation for 2 years. Pray for marriage and family restoration.
Please pray for our marriage. 7 years ago my husband had an affair but with the Grace of God our marriage was restored. I have recently come to find out that he is having an affair again. He tells me that he’s done, no longer loves me. We are still in the same house, he still sleeps in our bed but I feel all alone. He said he “is waiting for our kids, now 24 yrs old to get on their own place before we can file for divorce because we can’t just throw the kids out.
In the meantime, I’m still playing the roll of wife & mom. I’m in love with my husband of 26 years as of October 27 2016. I don’t want it to end :( Pray that my husband repents and walks with me and our Jesus, that his heart is with Jesus and that he hears his calling. I know with all my heart that Father God is working on our marriage. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. Your Sister in Christ, Pam
Pam, I will pray. Oh Father, Creator and Healer of all, come upon the brokenness of Pam’s marriage with Your great power of restoration. Intervene in the life of Pam’s husband, to gain his attention. Cause him to turn towards You in his life. Bring him to the point repentance in a way that causes him to repent of his ways. Show him the pain that he has caused in Pam’s life, in a way that brings him to his knees in a prayer seeking forgiveness. Calm his soul that he might hear Your Spirit… and speak Your truth into his life in such a way that he clearly hears and will choose to obey Your ways. Oh Father, bring calm and peace into Pam’s life… Let her feel Your arms wrapped around her… Draw her close to You. Give her strength to pray continuously for the healing of her husband and the restoration of their marriage. Help her to fall in love with you… that she might be able to release all of her pain to You. Oh Father… I ask for a miraculous restoration of their marriage in a way that brings immense glory to Your Great Name! I ask these things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus, Amen!!!
Please pray for my marriage. My husband seems to cleave more to his parents than to me like the Bible says he should, even after 13 years of marriage. This is affecting our marriage badly as I feel I always come second.
Hi, despite counseling from my church, my marriage is on the rocks. My husband is not involved with me or the kids. He doesn’t spend time with us but is quick to discipline them in anger, name call etc. He comes from work and his phone or the TV is a priority, not me or the kids. He puts in minimal effort. I too work and am very stressed. We live in another town so no family support; all we have is each other. I feel drained filling the role of mum and dad after a day of work, which leaves me frustrated and empty. Further issues, he has Psoriasis and doesn’t eat healthy or exercise to manage it properly. He smokes, is overweight and is addicted to sugary stuff–all of this aggravates psoriases. I have talked with him many times but no joy.
He has issues with woman as his mum dominated him and hit him a lot growing up so his nature is to rebel. He is part of the worship team in church but has no relationship with God, doesn’t read his Bible or spend time with God. Please pray for a heart change in him, for him to be actively involved with our girls and me, for his health and wisdom in his choices. I feel between my stressful job and empty home life. I have nothing to live for. I pray the prayers in the book “Power of a praying wife and mother” by Stormie Ormatian but I am feeling hopeless and drained. Thanks.
April 2015 my husband left me and my two girls. We have been married for 14 years. Last December I found out that he is involved with another woman. I am standing for restoration. Please pray for healing and restoration of my dead marriage.
Beate, I pray for you and your family!!! I pray that the Lord brings peace and acceptance into your hearts and that in His time, he will reveal to you the lessons he is providing. I pray that your children feel the amazing love and grace God has for us all and that each of you find comfort in knowing your hearts are protected and cared for by our Heavenly Father. I pray that your husband comes around and that God’s forgiveness will bring the two of you back together. Yet if that does not happen, I so sincerely pray that God holds your heart in his hands and provides peace and strength to you. Take care of yourself and know that you are not alone and we are here to pray for you anytime!
After reading most of the prayer requests and seeing that I am not alone in the challenges that our marriage is facing. I feel that writing my story is not necessary all I can do is ask for prayers since at the moment I cants even pray a “meaningful” prayer. My prayer request is that God reveals to me the things that I have contributed to my marriage falling apart the way that it has and repent and that I do what God requires of me to do as a wife despite all that is happening in my marriage! Thanks WP for the words of encouragement, there is a light at the end of the tunnel
SZ, I will pray for you: Oh Father… Creator of all… Creator of man and woman, marriage, husband and wife… and healer of all. We see Your love for marriage, as it is woven through Your Word from Genesis to Revelation… but we struggle in our fallenness to live out Your design for marriage. Bring Your touch upon SZ, as she has humbled herself before You. Draw her close to You so that she will know You as her Good, Good Father in a deeper way than ever before. Bring calm and stillness into her life that she can clearly hear Your Spirit. Let her hear Your Words clearly… as in a conversation with You. Answer her humble questions in a way that she knows You are very close… And You will answer every question that she asks of You. Give her a special taste of Your close intimacy in her life in a way that lights up her heart. And Father, capture the attention of SZ’s husband… cause him to turn towards You and notice that You are close. Bring into clear focus in his life the issues that need to be resolved. Cause him to notice the deep love that SZ has for him… let it touch his heart and cause him to irresistibly respond by drawing close to SZ… with a renewed love for her. Bring Your healing touch to their relationship as they both turn to face each other… and reach out to each other with love in action. May the restoration of their marriage by Your healing touch bring great glory to Your Name! I ask these things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus, Amen!!!
Mmmmhhh “M” thanks so much for your prayer, it has touched my heart and I know that God listens and answers prayers! You have made my day… may you be blessed
Sharon, Thank you, but may YOU be blessed! I was listening to Darlene Zschech sing “Good, Good Father” over and over for hours last night on YouTube… Just basking in the Goodness of our Father God. Rest quietly in His immense goodness and His Spirit will speak to you. :>)
Will you please pray for our family. My husband lost his job of 25 years. We are financially in need and in need for a job for my husband.
Jakkie, I pray that the Lord provides for you and your family as I know he will. I pray that he is able to bring trust into your hearts as you struggle with the uncertainties you are currently facing. I believe that with Him as your focus, that you and your family will be okay. I pray that a new job presents itself to your husband and that together you can get through anything!

I pray for my marriage to be restored. I pray my husbands hearts softens and he lets go of the anger
My wife and I are praying for a miracle – that God can soften both of our hearts and reconcile a marriage that has been torn apart. I discovered 14 months ago that she had been having a 2-year emotional affair with the youth pastor at our church and her heart had totally disconnected from me over the course of the past 5 to 6 years. I know I have not been perfect in our relationship and have my own issues that I am trying to address in counseling and with God, but I still love my wife even though she no longer loves me.
We are going to Christian marriage counseling and individual counseling to work out our problems, but are still stuck and unforgiving to one another. We live in the same home and have been married for 20-plus years with 3 amazing children, but I pray that God can do a miracle to bring us back together spiritually, emotionally and physically. The daily pain is destroying and devastating my heart no matter how much I pray to God and read my Bible. We have lost so much — our home, our church, our friends — and I fear that our marriage will never be mended and we are heading for divorce.
CJ, I will be praying for you: Oh Father, I lift up CJ and his wife to You for healing and the restoration of their marriage. We fall before You as the Creator of all… for You created man and woman, marriage, husband and wife… and You created CJ and his wife and brought them together in marriage. We trust in You… We believe fully in Your Healing Power… Your power to heal and restore any broken relationship in the blink of an eye. We come before you now. Bring miraculous healing to CJ and his wife.
Bring peace and joy and patience to CJ… calm his heart and cause him to cling to You in prayer. Draw him into a deeper relationship with You than he has ever known before. Bring clarity of thought to CJ’s wife… Intervene powerfully in her life and cause her to stop immediately and fall before You and repent of her involvement with another man. Bring Your Power upon her in a way that causes her to turn back to You in her life. We trust in You to capture her attention and redeem her from this situation. And we ask you to bring CJ and his wife back into a closer relationship again… bring healing and restoration to their lives and to their marriage in a way that shows Your infinite love for all to see and brings great Glory to Your Name. We ask these things in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus, Amen!!!
CJ, I am praying that God restores your marriage and mine. We are going through something very similar after 25 yrs. I pray that God will soften your wife’s heart that she may hear that still soft voice of the Lord. I pray that He takes the mistakes that have been made and turns them into miracles. I pray that the pain you’re going through will have a purpose and that you will come of this a better person. I pray that you focus on Him and His word, give it all to God. Meditate on His word day and night, so that you will be like a tree planted by the water. Your leaf will not wither, but you will bear fruit in every season without fail. God did not say some seasons but every season. Remember that when things are painful something good is on its way. I pray for strength in your daily struggle, In the Name of Jesus, AMEN.
I would like to request prayers for my marriage. My husband and I have been together 8 years, married 4 of those and have two children together. We’ve been separated since July of this year. I am dedicated to repairing my marriage, but am doing it alone. I would love prayers for my marriage to be reconciled.
L, I pray for you and for the incredible strength you have to put dedication into repairing your marriage. And while you feel alone… know that you are not! Our Heavenly Father is with you and will be your greatest advocate. He will work in you, and in your husbands’ heart, to bring forth His plan for your life. I pray for your continued strength and unwavering trust in your faith.
My husband has recently told me that he feels like he no longer loves me and can’t get that loving feeling back after a few months straight of intense fighting. We are now separated, and are supposed to divorce in April. I don’t want this divorce and need prayer for a marriage restoration, for God to soften and open his heart to him, and for his emotional wall to come down. I don’t want my child being a victim of divorce. I feel so hurt and distraught.
Asking for prayer for my marriage that God will make a way to restore it. After a big argument, my husband decided that he wants to separate and be done with me. After a month, he is now convinced that he needs a divorce from me. He thinks that we are not meant for each other anymore. Please pray that God will open up his eyes and soften his heart to keep our family and work things out. Pray that God will convict his heart every time he talks to other women online. Please pray for me, for strength and peace and joy while going through this.
