I thought of writing a testimony here about how God worked miracles in my marriage after my husband’s sex addiction, involving online sex chatting and an affair. My husband repented and turned wholehearted away from his sin. Although I felt deeply hurt, I was able to forgive. We worked very hard on our marriage and I did everything imaginable to satisfy him in every way, especially in giving him as much sex as he desired which we both have enjoyed.
Now, after almost two years I thought that our marriage was stronger than ever and I felt so much joy. But last night my heart was shattered in a million pieces again as my husband, out of the blue, told me that he wasn’t attracted to me anymore and ever since some weeks has not felt any love towards me. The main reason, he told me, is that I have put on weight (although I am not overweight) and that we are so different in so many ways (he is more outgoing looking for adventure all the time and me more of an introvert).
I was in total shock after he said he had been considering leaving me. At the same time he praised me for giving him the best time of his life going on travels and adventures with him. So obviously I’m very puzzled. We couldn’t sleep all night and my feelings have taken me in every direction. I am so afraid and deeply hurt. Please pray for our marriage to survive and that God will send another miracle and make my husband love and treasure me! We have been married 27 years and have four grown up children. Thank you for a wonderful site, which has been such a help and encouragement for us!
Oh Father, Come close to Hilde in this difficult time… Let her feel Your arms of love wrapped around her, holding her close and safe. Calm her spirit and give her Your peace, in abundant measure. Give her Your Words, to speak Your Truth calmly to her husband in a way that it touches his heart. Capture his attention and turn him back towards Hilde as the love of his life. Renew and restore his desire to be with her from this day forward. Give him the desire to turn away from all temptations that distract him from Hilde. Give him eyes to see her beauty in a new way that overwhelms him and brings excitement to his eyes as he thinks of Hilde. We know that You are the Creator of all, and You can most certainly heal and restore any struggling relationship and it is Your desire to heal and restore the marriage relationship of Hilde and her husband. Bring Your miraculous Hand of Healing upon them now, we ask… in the name of our Precious Lord and Savior Jesus, Amen!!!
God, I come to you in my most darkest time to ask that you please intercede in my marriage. I ask forgiveness from you Lord for not having had included you in our relationship before. I ask that you please help my husband find you so that he may find himself and also find the love that he once had for me. Please help him open his heart to you and learn to forgive. I ask that you please give me patience so I can cope with our current situation. I am confident in you Lord that you will help us. Amen.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Praying along with you that the both of you will find yourselves growing more in love with the Lord on a daily basis, live out your faith, be confident in your redemption and allow His love to lead, guide and sustain you as well as keep your marriage thriving.
Please pray for my marriage. We are both Christian’s but my wife has left me for someone else. She insists she is not living in sin and is okay with God. This coming from someone who went to bible college. Unless God intervenes I’ll be divorced in 40 days. I’m more concerned about her spiritual condition than anything. Please pray that she would come back to the truth and God would restore our marriage.
Praying for your wife to recognize that she is not honoring God with her choices and that this new relationship is sinful. Praying against her having a reprobate mind and that she allows the Holy Spirit to lead and guide her to the truth and resubmit to the Lord. Also praying for your well-being and your marriage to be given a second chance to thrive and honor God.
Hello! Please pray for my boyfriend and I to have that commitment in our relationship together and for us to get married very soon, because I want to do things the right way. Please pray that what ever blockages that are trying to come between us to be removed immediately. Thank You very much for your prayers!
Praying that your boyfriend and you will have a relationship that honors God and that you both will remain faithful to the path He has for you. May you both take an honest assessment of your relationship and let the Holy Spirit confirm that the two of you are ready for marriage, moving towards marriage or are better off as friends – however the Holy Spirit leads you, may you overcome the challenges in fulfilling God’s will.
Please God soften my husband’s heart. May he be faithful and in love again with me. May he not hide things he shouldn’t or treat me degradingly. I’m tired of it. May we grow through these trials and grow closer. Please, amen
Joining you in praying for your marriage to be revived and restored; that you both make God the focus of your lives and in doing so you love for each other grows and sustains you. Praying that you are able to forgive your husband and work with him to get your marriage back on track and to the place where you both feel secure and love. May you see God’s hand at work in your lives and in your marriage.
Dear friends, In early January this year my wife told me she wanted a divorce. I have posted several prayer requests here throughout the year as times grew tougher.
I am so happy to testify that God has worked a miracle in our situation. On Saturday just over a week ago my wife reconciled with me. She told me she had surrendered to God. There is still a long way to go. My wife still can’t say she loves me, but there is lots of affection, cuddling, hand holding, smiles, etc and everything is a million times more positive and certain. Praise be to God!
Please be encouraged if you are in the same situation. It’s always too soon to give up. As long as you don’t give up, you give God the chance to keep working on the situation. Keep going to God, keep praying. Be your best self. God loves you and He personally loves your marriage, specifically. He has been part of it from the beginning and wants healing & reconciliation for you and your spouse as much as you do. More even!
Thank you to all the kind people here, named and unnamed, who prayed for us. Thank you so much. It was particularly encouraging to see a post in response to my requests. And thank you and praise and all glory to our God.
Andrew, Thank you SO much for sharing this with us. In this ministry we pray for and with each other, cry with each other, and rejoice with each other. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of all of these aspects of brotherhood and sisterhood in Christ. We pray with you that as you keep looking to Christ for wisdom and healing–doing that, which He directs you to do, your wife will fall more and more in love with you and you with her. God bless!
Praise God for His supernatural intervention
Please pray for my marriage; we are having trust issues. My husband lies a lot to me and even our children, it is so normal to him. When I spoke about it he says that I don’t trust him because he failed to give me enough money to run the home. He doesn’t open up about finances and we are not one in that area. He can spend lavishly one moment; the next he says he has no money. I feel he distrusts me when it comes to money (we work in our company so I earn a salary just as he does). He is the main provider for our home because my money is mainly tied up in paying for a loan I took to clear a debt that we had.
I feel so stuck, discouraged I don’t know what to do. I can’t even articulate a prayer. I need prayer.
Praying that you allow the Holy Spirit to continue to cry out to God on your behalf and feel His presence as you continue to seek God. Also praying for opportunities that allow you and your husband to honestly discuss his responsibility as a husband and father as well as your finances. Praying that these opportunities and conversations help you both to fee secure in your relationship/be able to trust each other and allow you to be on the same page in regards to your finances.
Please pray for me and my husband. We are both hurting each other in different ways and we can’t seem to let go of the past and he is about to move out. It is 13 years and we have a beautiful 8 yr old but I want him to understand that together we can do this, but he feels like he needs to leave and end this marriage. Please pray that he changes his way of thinking. Thank you, AMEN.
Father, please soften Kaitlyn and her husband’s hearts towards one another- allow them to pattern their love for one another after Your love and treat the other with kindness and respect. Let their thoughts towards one another be good, their words loving and kind and give them the ability to serve one another by putting the other’s desires above their own. Help them to recognize they are one and are better together than apart – let them fight for their marriage through prayer, frequent conversation, worshiping you together, spending time together, loving caresses/hugs/kisses, and small tokens of appreciation. Bless them to see the beauty of their marriage and family and not give up, but persevere. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
My wife of 7 years divorced me 4 months ago. Miraculously, after much prayer, she is back with me again. We have started dating and she moved back into our home. I’m asking for continued prayers that God will continue to strengthen our relationship and that we will have a healthy reconciliation.
Praising and thanking God for the wonderful blessing of your marriage being restored and the work the two of you are putting in. Praying that you both will continue to allow God to lead and guide you and that your marriage will continue to grow and thrive and bless you as you honor God with your love.
Please pray for the marriage of Paul and Carol Galloway from Ireland. I hope this is not too personal but I need to share my burdens and would appreciate prayer support concerning them. I trust your integrity to handle this with wisdom.
Pray that we love, respect and treat each other as God teaches us to do so as husband and wife and that we enjoy and experience His gift of heterosexual and sexual fulfilment together as He intended. Pray we practice 1Cor.7, v1to5. Pray also as lead about the following matters also. We believe that the heterosexual and sexual relationship, nature and needs of human beings is not sinful, carnal, worldly or Satanic as its part of our non sinful humanity.
Jesus through His incarnation was fully man and human which means He would have had a heterosexual nature and sexuality. I know He never sinned or even gratified this in a non sinful way as through marriage. I believe that some teaching which I consider to simply be kill joy, legalistic and religious has put many Believers into bondage concerning this and even destroyed the marriage of some. Its our conviction that sex in any position is ok and not sin and that oral sex is also ok and not sin. In fact I don’t think that anal sex in marriage is sin but can also say that this does not concern my wife and I as its not something we are interested in.
However we enjoy oral and practice all these by mutual consent. If I did not practice oral with my wife I would feel defrauded and so would she especially as this is the only way I can cause her to orgasm. However, due to some scruples and weak faith I have been a bit tormented over all this as I read some things Christians think about these matters and who feel oral sex is sin or even part of Sodomy even between heterosexual married persons.
Why would God want to defraud my wife and I of the sex we enjoy in marriage and make us miserable? Please pray that God teaches us truth which will set us free in these matters and that we get set free from all tormenting, condemning negative thoughts about this as well as all doubts and scruples. This has all been depressing and makes me feel that God’s against our sexual fulfilment. We want to be free to enjoy oral sex and all sex with each other in our marriage and to be fully convinced in our own minds about these things. Pray God delivers us from these torments and that we live in peace within ourselves with them and as you feel lead to in these matters. Thank you.
Joining you in praying that God’s word and truth negate all false teachings and that the two of you enjoy a healthy, active sex life that only involves the two of you. Others can comment on what is right or wrong as far as sex in marriage goes, but I will say that sex is truly only for married people (one woman and one man), so as long as the two of you agree on what keeps your marriage bed pure and undefiled and the Holy Spirit does not convict you and you have peace …keep doing it. The goal of the enemy is for people to have as much sex as possible when they’re not married or outside of their marriage, but limit sex within marriage. Sex is beautiful and bonds a married couple on so many levels – do not let the world or others take that from you.
To Fellow Christians, Please pray for my wife Judy that she will see the light of Jesus in our marriage and work a miracle for an everlasting life together.
I need everyone’s prayers. My love for this woman is boundless as I love her without condition. She is very ashamed for herself and has not lived with me in our beautiful new home we bought. I am not perfect but I am a good honest and loving father and husband. I dearly wish to walk with her the remainder of my life.
Please pray for us. Thank you and God Bless.
Praying that the two of you will overcome whatever barrier/obstacle/hindrance that is keeping the two of you apart. Praying for Judy to fully submit to God and that her heart is softened towards you. Praying that you continue to live her sacrificially as you are called to do and that in due time your love is restored, flourishing and your marriage is taken to new heights.
Please help me pray for my family and marriage. My husband has been having a relationship with another woman and wants to leave me. We have been through so much pain. The fights gets worse every time. Please pray for restoration and healing for my family and marriage. In Jesus name, amen.
Praying against the relationship your husband is trying to cultivate with this other woman and that this woman will desire to be in a relationship with a man that is not married. Praying that they both repent and completely live for Christ. In addition, praying that as your husband submits to Christ his love for you grows, the needless arguing ends and that the two of you fight for your marriage and not each other. Praying that your children continue to feel the love and support of both of you and that your marriage and family remains in tact with very few scars. But you recognize your scars as signs of victory and rest assured that you persevered because of God’s love for all of you.
Please pray for me and my husband to fulfill God’s plan for our marriage. Right now we are separated and he’s angry and wanting a divorce. I am calm but confused whether I should agree or wait for God to heal this marriage. He’s been abusive, refuses marriage counseling, never admits to any mistakes, and acts like a bully. Right now he’s angry because I have set up limits and will not take his abusive behavior. Not sure what is God’s plan…
Praying that you remain calm and allow God to lead and guide you remembering that while you are called to forgive, it is not God’s will for you to be abused. Praying that your husband will deal with his issues and get the help he needs so that if God is leading you to stay married. You can do marriage God’s way–a marriage in which you both experience love, security and grow in Christ.
Dear Lakshmi, This is not a counselling session but a prayer request blog but I want to applaud you for the move you have made. Marriage is meant for enjoyment and not endurance. Pray for him, that the he should allow the Holy Spirit through the Word of God to teach him of his purpose. He wants you to feel guilty for your move; do not back off. Pray always and also in the Spirit for your continuous spiritual freedom. Blessings!
Wife and I are on the brink of divorce. I have been selfish in our relationship, even though I didn’t realize that I was. Please pray to soften my wife’s heart and for God to give us both the strength to keep working on our marriage
Praying that you and your wife will fully surrender to God during this time and let Him lead and guide you. Praying that you will make the necessary changes and that your wife will recognize the change in you. Also praying that God remains the focus of your marriage and that your love for each other grows stronger by the day.
My husband is a secret drug taker and it’s completely ruined him. He’s lost all sense of reality and is increasingly paranoid about me – accusing me all the time. And because of the lies he believes about me he wants to kick me out. I’m hanging onto God and trusting but it’s getting worse. I desperately need truth to reign and for him to be healed and our marriage saved
Praying for your husband to admit his addiction to drugs and get the help he needs so that the two of you are able to have a marriage. May you continue to trust God and love your husband, but keep yourself out of harm’s way. Praying that as your husband recovers from his addiction and finds healing/wholeness in Christ the two of you work together to get your marriage back on track.
