Please pray for healing for my wife and that our marriage will be saved and our family protected from divorce.
At the start of the year my wife told me she wanted to divorce me. She says “nothing has changed”. This morning she said “how can we fix you & me when I’m so incredibly broken? For the last 25 years I’ve just been a servant who cooks and cleans for you and serviced you in the bedroom. You spent 99% of your time at work and the rest in front of the computer instead of having a relationship with us.” She also said she’d read a lot of marriage books and none of them helped or changed how she felt. “I’ve changed myself so much I don’t even recognise myself. I’m not going to change any more and I’m certainly not going to change for you.”
Kate also feels that the things I have shared from the Word, marriage books and from what I’ve heard from God have been superficial. This made her resent me more. She dismisses the breakthrough period we had in October and November as “just a blip, perhaps a letting out of frustration.”
Our Christmas break has been mixed, with some moments that fill me with encouragement but much that challenges my feelings that we will overcome everything together. I have no doubt God can heal Kate and restore our marriage but I don’t know how much she is letting Him in.
Please pray for my hurt, wounded wife. Please pray for healing, recovery, understanding, forgiveness, soothing and an awareness of the presence of God, and his will and direction for her. Please pray that God will make me the man that He wants me to be, that Kate needs me to be, and that is attractive to her. Please pray for our friendship, relationship, marriage too, that it will become a strong, joyous partnership with a super-abundance of love.
Praying for Kate’s heart to be softened and that she lets God mold and shape her and she finds her identity in Him. Praying that she does not expect you to complete her, but finds the love she truly desires in Christ. Also praying that you do not give up hope and choose to see God at work in the small things. Even more, praying that you make her a priority and lavish love and acts of kindness without expecting anything in return. Once Kate is whole and recognizes the blessing of your marriage and that you never viewed her as a servant or did not mean to make her feel that way, I pray that the two of you enjoy reconnecting and making your marriage stronger than ever.
Thank you Melodee.
Please also pray that God will cut short the consequences of any wrong steps I take in my anxiety to heal our relationship. I have many questions but Kate just wants space. I have only just realised tonight from a comment she made about me being ‘relentless’ that it is not just me trying to talk things through with her that creates issues, but also my sharing of scriptures and excerpts from Christian articles and sermons.
Praying that you will let go enough so that she doesn’t feel overwhelmed and let God do the work that needs to be done in her heart. But also praying that you continue with your marriage enrichment studies for your own growth and well-being. Praising God that it isn’t over and that progress is being made. As long as she openly communicates and you respect what she has to say – things are looking up and it helps you to know exactly how to pray. Hang in there.
Please pray for our Heavenly Father to speak to my husband‘s heart and mind to change his mind about divorce and NOT to file divorce and instead focus on reconciliation and for him to focus on rekindling our marriage and be in love with each other all over again. Please pray for my husband (Marvin) to come home ASAP for us to start communicating and living under one roof again. Please pray for my husband’s affair to END with Sandy P. ASAP or with any other woman, to expose the truth what they’re doing is completely wrong and ungodly.
Please pray for our Heavenly Father, to soften Marvin’s heart towards me again. He’s been so bitter lately, he’s not the same person who stole my heart. He’s been so distant from me including both of our families. His friends have been a really bad influence on him. He’s sooo lost and been doing ungodly things.
I believe that You Lord will silence anyone who is attempting to come between us, telling my spouse that reconciliation is wrong. Satan has been working overtime by destroying our marriage. Please pray for him to turn around and start walking Gods path.
Please pray for Marvin’s job to be relocated to our hometown permanently and please no more traveling out of state from this moment on. He hasn’t been home for awhile and been traveling 99% of the time.
Please Heavenly Father, bring my husband home permanently ASAP, so we can focus on fixing our marriage & live together under one roof again.
Heavenly Father, you know what my heart desires for my marriage to be reconciled w/sooo much Love, happiness, joy, and Blessed with so many Healthy beautiful children together and for my husband and I to live together again ASAP. Thank you hearing and answering my prayers in advance. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen!
Praying that Marvin has a true encounter with God, that he has not hardened his heart and cannot feel the urging of the Holy Spirit. Also praying that he recognizes the error of his ways and seeks to live for God- removing himself from unhealthy relationships and situations. Praying that he desires to be with you and only you and that your marriage thrives and grows. Also praying that once your marriage is restored, the two of you are blessed with children.
I am praising God that you are still trusting Him and that your faith has not wavered.
Melodee, Thank you for your kindness words. Thank you for your prayers, and words of encouragement. I really appreciate it! GOD Bless you!
Please pray for reconciliation of my marriage. I recently confessed to my wife of 28 years about my infidelity, not once but twice. This has all but destroyed my marriage and family. My 2 adult children want nothing more to do with me. My wife wants a divorce and wants me out of the house. I have caused her way too much pain and hatred towards me. I am broken, my marriage is broken.
This is the darkest and most desolate point of my life. I have asked God to forgive me for being unfaithful and to help refocus my commitment to my wife. In confessing my sins in the hope of being reborn in Christ He will find mercy to grant me new love and devotion to my wife. I know with God’s strength and blessing I can be the husband and man my wife truly deserves. The power of prayer is powerful and hopefully with the grace of God restore my marriage.
Praying that you have truly surrendered to Christ so that you can be made whole and be the husband and father your family needs and desires. Praying that as you change and grow in faith, your wife and family’s hearts are open and forgiving and that your family is able to overcome. Nothing is impossible with God, keep trusting and believing in Him – it will make a difference.
Thank you Melodee for the kind words and prayer offerings. I have already started my transformation. It’s a feeling that I’m starting to experience & I can’t explain. Here’s an insight into my journey so far as I’ve asked for God’s mercy & forgiveness of my sins in hope’s of becoming a better person.
I know God’s love is unconditional & forgiving. I have welcomed God back into my life & committed to him that I will work to live my life as he has so intended it to be. I have a newfound awareness to be a better person & to treat people with the utmost importance. We don’t need to go through life looking for revenge when we’ve been wronged, although my wife thinks you do. We need to see & acknowledge no one is perfect & all of us are flawed. Everyone struggles with their own demons, their own trials & tribulations.
Unfortunately It’s almost impossible to overcome & work on your struggles alone. When you feel so alone wandering through life you are the most vulnerable. Satan will expose our vulnerability & with our freewill we will start to rationalize our immortality & likely will sin. Just because you are with someone doesn’t mean you aren’t still alone. Without God in your live you lose sight of what’s right & just. We become complacent & accept this as normal routine. We don’t realize God is always there for us. All we have to do is call on him. We all need to have faith in God and ask him for help and guidance. We also need to ask him for forgiveness.
One of the greatest attributes is being able to forgive someone. This seem impossible. “How can I forgive when I’ve been wronged?” It’s not just about you it’s about all of us healing as we forgive those who trespasses against us. It’s part of the Lord’s prayer. We have recited this prayer over & over in our lifetime. But how many times has it had any real meaning. No matter what we do God will always forgive us of our sins. I have asked him for forgiveness & penance for my sins in the hopes to be reborn in Christ. I have no idea what God has in store for me but I believe He has a grander plan. Thank you for all you do & may God bless you.
Your response truly blessed me. No matter what happens, it sounds as God has you right where He needs you. However, I’m believing things will work out and you and your wife will be one and walk in victory. Keep on keeping on!
Thank you Melodee! You are a true inspiration and give me much needed hope in my time of suffering.
Just to let you know, I received the Sacrament of Reconciliation tonight and confessed my sins to God. It was truly an unexpected experience. I’ve also committed to myself on January 1st to read the bible and take the 365 day challenge. It’s only the second day but I thirst for the next day of readings.
You are correct, no matter what happens God has already put me in a better place with the vision and guidance instilled upon me. I was misguided by satan for far too long. As long as I have God in my life I will not falter or fail ever again. I just hope and pray that my wife will find it in her heart to forgive me for my sins. I also hope and pray that she will be able to forgive and then be fortunate enough to enjoy in my rebirth in Christ. Unfortunately she believes in hanging onto the past and is seeking revenge as she thinks this is what she needs to do. The future is ours to take. God has breathed new life unto me to move forward and shed my old skin.
I will not and cannot be defined by my past any longer. It’s truly amazing once you accept God back into your life you are flushed with emotions and feelings of wellbeing and a true sense of purpose.
I truly believe that God has put you in my life so I have the hope and strength to rejoice in the fruits of his labor.
Thanks again Melodee you are a blessing from God.
Please pray for me. My parents are not agreeing with a marriage proposal which I like. I am in a relationship with him for more than 5 years. I can’t leave him or my family. I want both of them throughout my life. Please pray for a positive outcome and please tell your feedback. I am very stressed and also emotionally in a very bad place. And also please pray for him to get a good job.
Praying for peace of mind and heart for you since there are no easy solutions to your request and requires divine intervention from THE MOST HIGH. Praying and trusting God so that you see Him at work and know it is all working out for the best.
I need prayer over my marriage that God will restore our marriage; healing over my husband, and the our family will be protected from a divorce. Also, that we both would be delivered from our ways and to be covered by God’s blood. Please pray for the Lord to soften my husband’s heart and mind and to made him and I one again.
Praying with you for your marriage to be all that God wants it to be and that the two of you form a bond that is impenetrable.
I just recently found out my husband has been cheating on me me for several years. He broke down and told me and says he wants to stop doing what he is doing. He tells me he loves me and sees himself with me forever and very sorry what has happened. Although he has been seeing someone for the past two months and tells me he is going to break it off with her, I need to give him space to clean up his mess.
I need prayers to guide him in the right direction and that he does what he means. I need prayers for our marriage, relationship and friendship to be restored with my husband. We’ve talk for hours and days over this and he works out of town where this is all happening and he needs the guidance and strength to find his way back to me and make our marriage stronger than ever. I pray for his heart to heal and do right by us.
Praying with you for your husband to repent, walk away from this other relationship, truly accept responsibility for his actions and do what is necessary to repair your marriage as he finds way to be accountable. Praying that grace, mercy and forgiveness prevails and that trust is restored. Also praying that you feel supported and loved through this process and take the time needed to grieve and heal from this so that the two of you can move forward. Praying that the two of you will reconnect on an emotional, spiritual and physical level that will make your marriage stronger and stand the test of time.
we need prayer too, to grow closer to God. Also for my son’s business to prosper and for him to move into his own home and to able to be the husband for his wife and the head over all financial things. To be a great father and a true man of God. To hear his calling and to follow God always.
To continue to bless my Daughter on her job as well as her new home in which she will be moving into in April. For God to bring our family closer. For God to have my husband to follow his call. Everyone has been telling him that his calling is to be a preacher but my husband has been running for years from his calling.
Praying for you and your family to truly walk in faith, allow Jesus to be Lord over their lives so that all other things fall into the proper perspective and balance is achieved. Praying for more love, peace and joy in your marriages and family.
My marriage needs a miracle. Praise God, for he makes a way where there is no way. Please, pray for Eric and Sasha, and for our daughter Anna.
Praying for your marriage and family to thrive and experience the presence of God in new ways that leave you more fulfilled.
Prayer Request:
Please pray that the Lord provide His wisdom in our situation, I have recently found out that my husband has been having an affair. He is not showing any remorse for it but does not want to leave the marriage. We have been having a difficult marriage which tended to be emotionally abusive at times from his side and yet I find myself very conflicted. I want to leave him but I don’t want a divorce. Please pray that the Lord provides His wisdom in this situation so that godly choice are made by both of us.
Praying for divine wisdom for you and peace of mind and spirit do that you can clearly hear/see how God is leading you. Praying that your husband’s heart is softened and that he submits to the Holy Spirit so that he can repent and be a better man. Praying that you will know your worth and will not stay in abusive situation and seek the help, support from family/friends/your church and resources you need to fully thrive and live.
Please pray for my marriage, we need a miracle. My husband is very resentful and hateful towards me. We have three children and divorce is NOT an option. We need a breakthrough. I’m holding on and praying, but I feel so helpless.
Praying that you don’t give up and continue to cry out to God and seek Him. Praying for renewed strength so that you can hang on until you see the change and know God is at work.
Please continually pray for marriage. I need a miracle from God to restore and rebuild my marriage. My husband has left and is not willing to communicate with me. I need prayer for God to soften his heart, to have him return home to work on our marriage. I feel he is being pulled away by his family.
Please pray that someone is put in our path that can give wisdom, encouragement and teachings to restore our marriage and our love for each other. Remove anything or anybody that is an obstacle in path of reconciliation and instead replace it with good and positivity. We used to be very active in the church and I pray that we can get back into church together.

Please pray for our marriage. We have been married for 4 years and have a beautiful little 2 year old boy. My husband has been doing his PhD the past few years and I have been working full-time in order to support us financially until he finishes his studies.
Recently the idea of having a second child came up and my husband told me that he doesn’t want to have any more children (this was a huge shock to me as we had always talked about having at least 2 children). I let the issue rest as I put it down to the stress of his PhD, but since then he has opened up about other issues he has with our marriage. He has told me that he has built up resentment for me as I haven’t supported him during his studies, and feels we are no longer compatible. He also told me that I am not attractive to him and that he’s not ‘in love with me anymore’.
I have told him that however hurtful those things are to me, I will always forgive him because he is my husband who I am committed to and love. We’ve had some space for a couple of weeks but he told me his feelings haven’t changed. I need prayer for him to see God’s love for him and to remind him of the commitment we made to each other. I will stand by him no matter what, but am afraid it may be too late. Please pray for him to have the desire to work on healing this pain and resentment he’s feeling. May he know God’s everlasting love and forgiveness in his own life so that he may also be able to give that to me.
Praying for the two of you to openly and honestly communicate your concerns, but in a loving and kind manner so that you can work together. Praying that the two of you do not allow these feelings of resentment to grow, but tackle this obstacle. Ideally, the two of you need to be comfortable with your marriage and it’s longevity before you tackle adding more children to the family. No matter what happens – God will see you this and do much more so continue to trust Him for guidance and wisdom.
Please pray for reconciliation in my marriage and that God would soften my wife’s heart toward me. Pray that she might ask advice of her godly friends as opposed to those who don’t have a relationship with Christ. Also pray for our kids who are suffering through talk of divorce. May our marriage be restored and set an example of the power of the Lord to reconcile marriages in His name. Thank you.
Steve I pray for your Marriage tonight as I understand your situation and pray for God to heal and grow your love and your marriage.
Please pray for our marriage. We have a 9 month old baby and have been married for 2 years. It has become a tulmultous and hostile environment. I feel that my husband doesn’t listen to me or respect me. He does not validate my concerns or happiness. I was once a successful career woman. He tinkers away at an unfinished home and makes decisions without me. He has total control of the finances and will not discuss with me what is coming in or out but just puts limitations on what I can spend each month. Which that number continually declines. He has threatened to cut off my credit card knowing I have no job and no other source of income. I really have started contemplated leaving him as I find his behavior to be controlling. Any prayers for his behavior to change and to resolve our differences would be greatly appreciated.
Praying for the well- being of all of you and that the two of you can bond rather than drift apart over the changes the blessing of a little one brings into the household. Praying that the two of you will discuss your finances, be able to set a budget and agree on how to spend your income and that you both feel valued for your contributions to the household and well-being of the family. Praying that neither of you become too overwhelmed by the pressure, but find support from family and friends to help you through this while keeping your marriage in tact. However , if the situation is truly abusive and not the result of your husband feeling stressed and not properly coping with change- I’m praying for you and the baby to find a safe haven.
