Please pray that God delivers my marriage from the enemy. I drove my wife away by neglect and selfishness but have since changed in many ways because of her leaving me. She has filed for divorce and it will be final July 12, 2014. Pray that God will intervene and change her heart. We’re both believers but she has closed the door on reconciliation and is currently in a relationship that makes her “happy.” I pray that God removes anyone that speaks or acts or interferes with our marriage in any way and that He would set our hearts back to one another and unto Him. I’m at the 11th hour and need a miracle.
I pray for healing. I need to understand I cannot change people and make them fall in love with God. Only he can do that. When I date non-Christians I feel happy, but not complete. I feel like I’m disappointing Jesus. Please pray that I will never let Jesus down and try to focus on him and not dating non-Christians.
My husband & I starting dating when I was 17. That was 19 yrs ago; we have been married just over 16 yrs. We have 3 children 13, 10, 8 years. He is the best thing that ever happened to me. He is the love of my life. We had an argument & it was misunderstood on both our parts. He left & is staying at his moms. That was 4 wks ago. I’m so heart broken & our kids are hurting. I need prayer for God to put my family back together.
I think I am having a problem of trusting people. I’m always distrusting my husband. We are having problems about it, and I am the one feeling the pains now. Please men of God, pray in his name, in giving Blessing peace.
Hi, I’ve been married for 11 years and have two kids. Two years ago my husband moved out, saying he doesn’t love me any more. When I asked if he has another person he denied it. But I think he does. Anyway, a couple of months ago he asked for the divorce. I asked him if that’s what he wants, giving him a chance to change the conversation, but he said yes, that’s what he wants. So I let go and decided to go through it because I don’t think he will change his mind. Deep down I feel that he still will but I’m not sure.
When he talks to me he wants to be friendly. He doesn’t want me to move more than one hour distance from his apartment. I have to say that he is present 100% in the life of the kids and does whatever I ask, that needs to be done. Sometimes I tell him what he didn’t do when we were together so he doesn’t think I’m to blame. I did that thinking that he would reevaluate the situation, but no luck. I’m not sure what to think about his behavior. Does he want to have his bachelor’s life? Although I’m trying to move on, I’m still confused. Please help. Thanks.
I am asking that my marriage be lifted up to God in prayer. My wife and I have not been intimate for some time. She has MS and I’m not sure if that has affected her desire, but I have not done my part in my marriage by viewing porn for most of my life and into my marriage. I am praying that God would restore my marriage. We both love God and are growing in his word. I can’t fix myself our my marriage. Only God can restore our marriage.
Pray that I may love my wife deeply, that my wife may truly love and respect me and that I will be faithful to her.
Could you kindly please pray for me that my marriage be restored? I am facing a serious marriage problem to an extent that we are now on temporary separation. My wife is now renting a flat together with my 2 daughters. I rebuke divorce and refuse the devil to destroy my marriage. I did not show her enough love and care lately and we were in many instances angry with each other until she decided that we needed a break. That’s when she left with my daughters on the 03/04/2014. I am currently home alone and feel so miserable and lonely but I KNOW THAT THE LORD WILL MAKE A WAY AND WILL NEVER GIVE UP IN TRUSTING THAT HE IS WORKING ON MY SITUATION.
God please help me and wife to restore our marriage. My wife has since moved out of the house and it’s 5 months now. I truly love her and wish we could sort out our differences and come back home to raise our 2 girls. I ask for other to humbly include Thabo and Dorcas in your prayers for God to restore our 8 year marriage.
Hello, I am married and not happy. Please pray for the strength of my marriage. I am 39 and my husband is 55 and we’ve been married for 4 years and been togther for 6 yrs and we’re now just beganning to have relations, due to the fact that I knew he was sick when I married him. So he had surgery due to the fact that he has diabetes and needed to get an implant placed because of the nerve damage in his penis. I supported my husband and know it seems as if he has forgotten that I also think the age diffrences is showing up in our marriage. He’s going to retire after 33 yrs and I feel a certain type of way about it. I know it seems kind of jealous and maybe I am. But he’s on a much diffrent level in life than I am. And also he has these friend who he’s been with for years and they’re retired too and are encouraging him to leave. But this is our life I thought. I’m confused.
I have only been married a little over a year. Three years ago we had a daughter, yet his cheating and drug/alcohol use led us to break up. We got back together, since, and I am not pregnant. He needs substances, either marijuana or alcohol just to get by. We stopped being intimate – at first it was because of me because I felt so unattached with him over his constant lying and being out all night. Then he suddenly didn’t even want intimacy himself.
He is living at a friends house, currently. Actually, I have no idea who or exactly where he is staying – he keeps so many secrets and what he does tell is lies. He still says he loves me and wants to make it work; but I have a feeling deep inside that it is over and he is only saying that because he is afraid to lose custody of the kids. He puts his “friends,” video games, and drugs before his family. I know in his heart he wants to be a good man, but he is too caught up in the world and was never taught as a kid to deal with problems. I don’t know if I would be lying to myself if I were to actually believe that he still loves me. And since I really doubt he is in love, I wonder if I should even try to help the marriage.
I feel like I have been doing all the work in this marriage and he is so selfish. I am doing everything by myself and trying my hardest to give him grace and be kind while so hurt. Please help and pray for I don’t know what to do or think. He is always out, doing who knows what. Soon we till have a baby and I don’t want my kids to be raised like this. I know I could never love another man as much as I love him, but he is draining our family and I don’t know what is best for us or him. I don’t know if I could ever help him, only he and God can do that. He needs all the prayers he can get to set his priorities straight and be honest and repentive. And I need prayer to do the right thing and be strong. Thanks.
Maybe from the beginning I didn’t choose the right guy as my husband. I didn’t really know his background, his character. I thought he was the man I was waiting for and I thougt we both have the same passion to serve God. But we have had so many troubles since we married and so many bad character flaws have shown up in us. But, thankfully, so many times too God helped us, and I do realized that God wants to mold me into something beautiful.
My husband is my sparing partner to do the Word of God, because I’m learning to live the word of God by loving him unconditionally. But I failed. He felt that I mistreated him, not respect him because my salary is higher than his. Yes, I admit it, I treated him badly. And now he wants to divorce me, and the worst is now he said that he left his faith in Jesus and he wants to find another truth. I can feel his bitterness. My family is very mad and also hurt by my husband and now and they are asking me to divorce him.
All I can do now is pray and ask God’s mercy to heal my husband and to heal my marriage. I love my husband and I miss his burning spirit of loving Jesus. Would you please pray with me? I am praying for God to touch my husband’s heart and there will be a reconciliation in my marriage.
I am an alcoholic. My wife of 14 years could not stand my alcohol abuse any longer and kicked me out, obviously with good reason (I see that now). I’m working on staying sober. She is irate and says there is no turning back from her decision of divorce, which has been completed. We have three small children.
Please pray for me, our marriage and our family. I’m working on cleaning up the mess created by my addiction; making myself a safe and sane person who can recommit in our marriage. Some days I’m so sad, angry, embarrassed, guilty, scared and devastated by the repercussions of my actions, it hurts to breath. I miss her, our children and home terribly.
Please pray that God can soften my wife’s heart, that I can continue on a path of sobriety, that my and our trials and difficulties can be overcome, and we can reunite our family in a mutually fulfilling, beneficial, safe and loving marriage and home.
I just found out my husband fathered two children in our marriage. He left me and is living with the mistress. I want to work it out with my husband and I pray that he will find his way back to me and honor his vows.
I love my husband more than any man I ever had the opportunity to be involved with, starting down all the way from elementary school through college. And believe me the numbers are starting low for a women of 42. I am praying that my husband is still attracted to me and that he is still in love with me. I know he loves me, but my worry is whether he still has passion for me. We used to never be able to keep our hands off each other; we kissed and hugged and held each other all the time, but that has dissipated. I have gained a little weight; I am a size 6. But what is a little shocking to me is that when we first met I was a size 12. He still feels in love with me and asked me to marry him. I know all this is the outward meaningless crap. So now I’m wondering what I have to offer him within the shell. I’m very intelligent; I have a great sense of humor. Believe me, I am full of faults, but he still fell in love with the good and the bad. And lately he has no interest in me at all. We used to have wonderful talks, amazing intimacy, but no longer. I’m so afraid. I love him so much.
My prayer is to find our way back. My love for him is so complete and pure. I just would like the man that used to look at me with a love that would melt your heart. He said and did the nicest things to and for me. And it never had to be anything extravagant; his words were absolutely extravagant on their own. I really am trying to lose the little weight that I have gained. But there is so much more to me then just that. My heart is breaking each day and not because I feel he is trying to leave me but because his love for me is not the same.
