Dear Heavenly Father I ask you to please touch my husband Joshua’s heart, bring my husband home, and clear his mind of all negative thoughts. I thank you for all the beautiful memories and our daughter that we share. I pray this doesn’t effect her! God please breathe on my dead marriage so it can come back alive. Restore the love that my husband and I once shared! It’s your will for us to be reunited and for us to stand strong in our marriage. I thank you that it is your will. Change me to be the wife I need to be. I pray to be more patient, loving, and forgiving. Thank you so much Lord, in your sweet son Jesus name AMEN. I LOVE U.
Standing in agreement with You, Chasity- that Joshua will respond to God’s love for him and uphold his vows and become a godly husband and father. Praying this comes to fruition in the near future. Hang in there!
Justin from Nigeria…Dear Heavenly Father, I ask you please touch the family of my friend and the wife that they may learn to love each other sincerely and that You may restore them back and save their marriage in the name of Jesus Christ.
God bless you, Justin for caring so much about your friend’s marriage. We will be lifting them up in prayer and specifically praying that the enemy’s attacks do not overwhelm them- praying they cling to Christ and each other.
Please pray for my marriage. I feel that I am out of options with convincing my husband to try to make this work especially since we have kids. My heart is breaking. Please pray for reconciliation of my marriage.
Lord, please continue to strengthen as S as she continues to trust in You for the restoration of her marriage. Reassure her that You hear her and it is not all in vain. Help her to stay rooted in Your promises and to be the wife and mother she desires to be. Continue to draw her closer to You as she waits for her marriage to be what You designed it to be. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Can you pease pray that God removes all the obstacles out of my life that are keeping me from getting married? Even if they are obstacles that I created? Thank you for your prayers.
Father, may Your divine and perfect will be done in Cassandra’s life. Help her to trust You with the details of making her into the wife she needs to be at the time You have for her. Bless her to grow deeper in her relationship with You so that she can see how You are preparing her for marriage and making her even more into Your image. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Please pray for me and my husband (Lynn and Harry). We have been married 29 years, have 2 daughters, ages 11 and 13, and we recently lost my dad suddenly, May 30th to a freak accident. He was not only my dad and friend, but my husband’s very good friend as well.
We don’t have extended family nearby, both work, and my husband does not have any friends here, or Godly men. Finances are an issue also. Please pray that we turn to God, put him first, and that we learn to extend grace, be there for each other. Midlife, grieving, raising teens, and little support are all factors. I have tried so hard to create a surrogate extended family, even at church, but just don’t have the energy with work and my own family to keep maintaining it as if I had family nearby.
We need to be ourselves, and we both feel stuck and trapped. Also, where we live is isolating…no people around, no friends for our girls. A double/triple whammy. I pray to God to be our anchor, as He walks us though this storm. It is getting harder and harder to work and function. Thank you.
Father, I pray that Lynn and Harry will cling even more to You and each other as they grieve the loss of their dad and friend. May they be reassured of Your comfort and care for them by finding godly support from others. Bless them to form true connections with others that cause their faith to grow and build up the body of Christ. Continue to bless their marriage, children and home as they make You their priority. Give them victory in every area of their lives and make them good stewards over their finances. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Pray for Andy to come close to Jesus, to see his sin, and desire to follow him.
Lord, I join Demetra in praying for Andy to surrender his life and heart to You. May he truly live as a child of the Most High and proclaim to others -follow me as I follow Jesus. And Lord, please bless Demetra for caring so much about him. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
I ask that you would pray for my marriage. My husband and I got along so well before marriage. We have been married for 5 years now. I am asking that you would pay that my husband can be happy with me and not cheat and seek out other women. I pray that he would stop being on websites for singles and trying to secretly date them. These are things that I have found out. I pray that God would make me the wife my husband desires. I pray that would put love back into my heart because right now there is hurt I pray that he would build my self esteem back up to be the strong supportive wife that my husband needs. I ask for prayer that he guides our tongues and convicts us of wrong doings so that we seek him first then each other. Please pray for us.
Father, I pray for Tracy and her husband to experience more of Your love, grace, mercy and peace. Call them into deeper relationship with You so that they might know true love and peace. Help them to view each other as a blessing and only desire each other. May their words be encouraging and uplifting and they seek to serve one another. Help them to fight for their marriage and not each other. Bless and keep them so that their love might be a witness to all. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Good Morning, On July 4th, my husband of 27 years confessed that he was involved in an affair with a coworker in 2014, which lasted one year. Although this happened to him 3 years ago, it is new to me and I am at a crossroads. I have truly forgiven him, but I find that my feelings of love for him are dwindling. Divorce is not an option and I want to stay with him. I just need and want God to rekindle my love for my husband. He is a great man who made a mistake, but I am hurt. Thank you.
Lord, please continue to speak to Mrs. Zee and keep her heart soft towards her husband. Let her love for him grow so that she might be able to work through her pain and truly forgive him – thank You that she is willing to forgive and is fighting for her marriage. Give her husband the divine wisdom to support her through this process of grieving and rebuilding their marriage. Let him humble himself and continuously reassure her of his love. Help them to stay focused on You and Your love for them so that they are able to have the marriage they both desire and honor You. In Hesus’ name, Amen.
Please Jesus, Be by my side at the moment when I’m all alone in this life. I want your blessings for my marriage with Puneet. I need his family and father to be beside me. I need peace and harmony with him and a beautiful vacation with him on his birthday this year. Keep us blessed and married for years after years. Keep us blessed and disease free. And destruction free. Shabnam, Mumbai
Praying that your marriage to Puneet is blessed and favored by the Lord and that you enjoy your lives together as you honor the Lord. May your families support you and keep you encouraged. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
I am asking for prayer for my husband. I discovered back in Feb. that he’d been having a 2 year affair. He ended it and we’re still together but he has a lot of bitterness, resentment, etc. towards me from things years ago. We went through infertility (18 years ago) and I was very emotional and cried a lot during that time, and then God blessed us with our twins! He also told me another reason for his affair was he didn’t feel loved/appreciated by me. I apologized for making him feel this way and have tried to go out of my way to make him feel loved since finding this out.
He tells me that he loves me but is not in love with me. He says he wants our marriage to make it…but he has such anger towards me at times. He will hardly touch me and shows me very little affection. I love him with all my heart and soul. I ask for prayer for God to remove the bitterness he has towards me, and prayer for myself to stay strong through this ‘roller coaster’ of emotions, and for our children. God provided us with kids when the Dr’s said that I would never have them….so I know He can mend our marriage! I am trying so hard to keep my faith through all of this, but it’s so hard sometimes. Thank you so much!
Lord, let Stephanie’s husband know how much he is loved and cared for in spite of the mistakes that have been made and his affair. Give him the desire to only want to be with Stephanie and to fight for his marriage and family. May he be the man You have called him to be and truly live for You. May he and Stephanie worship You and honor You with their marriage. Let them put in the work to strengthen their bond and live out their love for one another. Bless them with more hope, joy and peace. May they remember the blessings and miracles of the past and continue to trust You for the restoration of their marriage. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Hi. My name is Patrick. My wife, Arlene, and I have been married for 23 yrs. Things have been rocky for the last few years. I’m challenged by Bipolar II disorder and an anxiety disorder. Consequently, life has been difficult for the both of us.
One such difficulty has been disagreements regarding her 3 children. When we were younger, it wasn’t such a problem. But as we and they aged and my difficulties with my illness increased, so did my mistakes and bad judgements.
Fast forward to today. After 2 hospitalizations in 5 years and increased marital and home stress (2 of her now adult children have moved in. Along with 3 of our grandchildren. Couple that with a 20 yr old granddaughter and her 2 children, all in a small 4 bedroom home with little to no financial help from my wife or stepchildren, one can see the problem.
Not to mention the fact that we have been sleeping apart for the majority of the past 2.5-3 yrs. Because of my illness and the stress of my homelife, I don’t always hear or understand my wife correctly. Which has been a major complaint as of late.
Now to the crux of my prayer request. I have asked for forgiveness from my wife for the past. I have recently entered therapy and am on a good med regiment. Things are looking good there. I am drawing closer to the things of the Lord, much as WE did when we were first married. But during some very tenuous and nasty discussions, I have on a couple of occasions mentioned leaving. Based on what The Bible says, I changed my mind and told her I wished to work things out. Again, things have been tense. I have a good support system of mental health professionals and friends. However, Arlene only (to my knowledge), has the support of her 5 children.
A week ago, Arlene said she didn’t want to be with me. To which I immediately secured an apartment. I did so because to a) give her what she asked for and b) because it would be good for my mental health. If I’m not good, how could I be good for my wife and family? Since then, she’s been extremely volital. Lashing out. Saying things like, “Don’t contact me or talk to me!” “We’re done!” Don’t pray to get back together!”, among others.
My prayer request is this: If you folks could agree with me in prayer that The Holy Spirit change her heart of stone into a heart of flesh and that Arlene would recognize His desire for marriage and reconciliation. Of course, according to His will for us as a married couple. I know that God and His Holy Spirit would never cross another”s will but this is my desire according to the Word of God. Thank you. Amen!!
Father, I pray that You will continue to give Patrick the desire to fight for his marriage and that Arlene’s heart will soften. Restore this marriage into something honorable and beautiful so that they might both feel secure in their love. May they cling to one another, making each other a priority after You. As they, by the power of the Holy Spirit gain order and control over their lives, home and finances – may they experience more peace and joy. May they grow in their fellowship with You and in turn, love and support one another. May their friends and family continue to support this marriage and intercede for them and not be an uinitentional or intentional burden on them. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
I need prayer for the restoration of my marriage. For the strongholds of Satan and another woman to be broken from my husband.
Amanda, praying that you are reassured of God at work in your marriage. May He put a hedge of protection around you and your husband and your husband always take the way of escape. May the love you share be impenetrable as the three of You form a tightly woven cord. Praying blessing of hope, love, peace and joy for your marriage. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Please pray for my husband who I believe is in a crisis. He is dealing with childhood issues, a mother with dementia and sibling issues. I also believe he is dealing with issues regarding himself personally, work and not feeling like he is where he wants to be at this point in his life. He left to live in an apartment last week saying he does not have it in him to work on our marriage at this time, he says he has felt disconnected from me for sometime even though I did not realize this. He said he hopes to get to the point that he wants to work on it but doesn’t have it in him at this time and that he needs to figure himself out first. Please pray his heart and mind get healthy because he is really struggling and pray for complete reconciliation. We have 3 children who want their family together as much as I do.
Father, please be with Kel as she continues to stand in the gap for her husband and marriage. May his heart, mind and will align with You and Your purposes. May he prioritize his life and not cast his marriage or 3 children to the side as a result of the enemy’s attacks. May he be given godly wisdom and see everything in its proper perspective and recognize how much he needs also by his side to support him with his mom, job and other issues. Replace his fear, doubt and confusion with love, joy, peace, wisdom and hope. Bless this family and allow them to have a powerful testimony from this experience. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
God, thank you for this broken marriage Lord. I really need your strength and your guidance right now so Lord please open up my ears so that I can hear you and open up my eyes so that I could see you in the midst of all of this. God I will be picking up a divorce packet today and filling it out. Lord, do you want me to file for divorce right away or would you like me to wait? Lord, please reveal to me what’s in my husband’s heart about this broken marriage and about our relationship and our future. Please Lord; thank you in Jesus name, amen.
Father, please continue to be with June and make Your presence known in her life. Help her to follow Your will and make a decision that honors You in regards to her marriage. Bless her to have peace in the midst of her doubts and fears. Let her be confident in her choice and be reassured of Your love for her no matter what. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
I ask for you to please pray for my marriage. I have been living in a different country for 2 years and due to depression and loneliness, I foolishly got carried away and had an emotional affair with another man from back home for 4 months. We engaged in very inappropriate communication and discussed plans of meeting up. I don’t know if it would have gotten that far but my husband found out about it regardless.
I regret speaking to this man so badly and convincing my husband to stay with me is becoming increasingly difficult. My husband means everything to me and I don’t want to lose him. I lost my mind for a few months. I don’t know what possessed me to do such a despicable thing. Please pray that my husband may soften his heart and forgive me. I honestly don’t know how I can go through life without him. Thank you in advance.
Father, please let Simone continue to persevere in seeking her husband’s forgiveness and not give up on their marriage working. Help her husband to see she is truly repetant and to extend mercy and grace towards her. Be with Simone as she continues to work through her feelings so that she does not succumb to loneliness or depression. Bless both of them to keep their hearts soft and tender towards one another so that bitterness does not set in. Let them give their pain and hurt over to you. Let them work together to strengthen their bond and communicate with each other, so that they both feel loved and appreciated. May they seek out experiences that bring them closer and live in harmony with each other. Bless them so that they can be witnesses to all of Your faithfulness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Thank you very much for your prayer Melodee! It means the world to me.
You’re extremely welcome- may you continue to be blessed!
