Asking prayer for my wife and I and our family. 5 years ago I was blinded by pride, anger, hurt feelings, disrespect and lack of intimacy emotionally, spiritually and physically. My only option I felt was to leave the marriage. I filed while being in the home, but God had other plans. Less than 2 months later, the Lord softened my heart suddenly and I began to see my relationship with Him and the love for my wife more clearly.
My wife was then the one running from our marriage, and fast forward to today, we are both still in the home and physically, emotionally and spiritually separated. She talks occasionally of me moving out, and I have reiterated that I cannot keep her from leaving but I am going to stay committed to keeping what we have of our family together. Please pray for us. Thank you.
Praying that neither of you leave and neither of you give up on the marriage, but truly come together to talk and determine what each of you can do to stay committed and reignite your passion. Praying that the two of you will take advantage of all resources available to you, be it counseling, a marriage ministry, couples’ retreats, date nights, etc. Praying that you both recognize you have a purpose for being together and don’t take that for granted.
Hey Scott..God its in control. I am in the same situation. We’re a young couple recently married, almost two year. Pride,
disrespect, lack of communication; I was blinded by all. I feel that I failed God of the responsibility he have me. I didn’t protect her enough with prayer. My wife left home two months ago and lives with a friend. She gave me so many warnings for me to work on myself. Scott, it’s never too late. Call on God to be your rescue. He will fix your marriage.
I pray for total restoration of love and commitment in my marriage. I pray that He will bring back the excitement and friendship we shared. I also pray that my husband will rededicate his life to the Lord.
Praying that your husband comes back to the Lord and lives the life God has intended for him. Also praying that as he grows in Christ – your marriage grows and flourishes.
Please pray for the Spirit’s transformative work in my life and healing of my 15 year marriage to my precious Christian wife. We have four young daughters together. The separation has been five months now. I have also been struggling to keep up with the legal support and living on my own. Asking for God’s miracles upon our lives and trust and love to be rebuilt. Thank you for your prayers!
Praying that the two of you are able to come together and work as one to overcome your issues and restore your marriage.
We have problems in our relationship. Beg almighty God to give us the light to see ourselves and each other as we really are. Help us to grow daily in self-knowledge and mutual love while at the same time developing our potential to love and be loved. Help us, to seek and root out every manifestation of selfishness, vanity, and childish self-seeking– those hidden enemies of love and maturity, Show us that by learning to love and being filled with love, we may complement and nurture each other as we share our lives together. Amen
Amen.
I think my marriage is falling apart. My husband and I don’t even talk much as if we’ve got nothing to say to each other. As for love making I just have no interest at all in that and I know it’s causing a problem but don’t know what to do about it. I just wish that things can go back to the way it use to be. I love my husband but at times I feel that it all gets a bit too much for me. Many times I told him that maybe we should separate and he did not want to he said e would get us counselling but to date nothing. Is our marriage as important to him as it is to me?
Praying that you are both bold enough to confront the issues in your marriage and talk through them and get counseling if need be. May neither of you let your marriage die, but do all you can to help it thrive and honor God.
After 27 years of marriage, we just need help as everything is just routine now that the kids are out of the house.
Praying that the two of you are honest with yourselves and each other and recognize the need to reignite your passion, have new experiences and continue to communicate on a meaningful level. May the two of you desire more than a good marriage that does not end in divorce, but a great marriage and put forth the effort to make it so.
My husband and myself have been married for nearly 15 years and we have 3 daughters 8,3 and 1. Our marriage is lacking relationship in a very fast rate. One of the reasons is my husband is really focused on himself only since I have known him and now it’s getting too much for me to tolerate. It feels like my children and I don’t matter. To the point my present and future don’t matter.
I have always compromised to maintain the peace and harmony in our home. I feel like I am loosing my personality and identity to accommodate my family’s needs. I have tried to discuss this with my husband in many occasions and he apologizes and make promises but he forgets it as soon as the conversation is finished.
I now have decided to separate myself while we’re living in same house for my well-being as well as for my children. I don’t want them to know what is going on between us because it might affect our older daughter. Please pray for us.
Praying that your husband is able to see the need for him to be a true husband and father as well as to truly support and love you. May you be able to be yourself under the guidance of the Holy Spirit and be the wife and mother you desire to be. Praying that the two of you are able to really connect so that your words are truly heard and acted upon in a way that strengthens your bond and marriage.
Hanna, I was that husband. I lost how important my wife was. I completely took her love for granted. She finally had enough and moved out saying there is no way she is coming back. It crushed me; it is the worst pain I have ever felt, but it also brought me to God and it opened my eyes to how much I love and need my wife she is my everything and I pushed her out the door. I pray that your husband can realize how much he needs you before the same thing happens to him, because he too will feel the same pain I am. Jesus, I pray that you can reach Hanna’s husband’s heart and show him how to be more open and emotionally there for his wife and family. Jesus, let him she her through your eyes so he knows how blessed he is. amen
I would like to know from God if the decision to divorce my husband is the right one, wrong one? And what should i really be considering.
Praying that you are able to hear/feel God’s guidance and have peace with whatever outcome you choose.
I haven’t been on here for months and months, but now I’m back with a prayer request: I have motor neuron disease (ALS), and probably have but a few months left in this life, before moving on into eternity with God. I am definitely looking forward to receiving my new body! God has been so good throughout all of the challenges of ALS, but those challenges keep coming, one after another. My body is extremely weak, and my sweet wife must take care of me and do everything for me, and I mean everything, because I can do almost nothing for myself anymore.
Our most recent challenge is that I have almost completely lost my ability to speak, and my wife has a very difficult time understanding my words. We’re trying to find new and effective ways to communicate with each other, but it has been really difficult for us. Our whole relationship has undergone a transformation as we have transitioned from husband & wife to patient & caregiver, and it hasn’t been so easy. Not being able to talk and have a conversation has made it ten times more difficult. We’re trusting in our Lord through it all, but we really need Him to give us a breakthrough in the area of communication right now. Thank you all for your prayers! And thank you, Steve & Cindy, for your ministry that helps so many! May the Lord bless you richly today and always.
Oh M, How our hearts are breaking with this news! You have helped so many on this web site, as well, as you have responded to and have prayed for so many here. Thank you for sharing this prayer request with us. We, and many others will be fervently praying for you. We will be praying for a breakthrough in communication, as well as asking God to heal in your body and your spirit. We pray for your wife and family too because she and they are going through so much as well, because of their love for you.
Words don’t seem adequate to express the prayer of our hearts for you (and for others who post on this Prayer Wall). Our love is with you and our prayers will be continually going up for you. Please know that God loves you despite all that is going on, and we love you too.
M, while Cindy has covered everything and there’s nothing really left to say, I just have to add my two cents…I did want you to know that you have blessed me tremendously and that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers as well. Thank you for your faithfulness!
We’ve had a difficult marriage for quite some time, but wanting to work on it. My husband & I are taking the Restoring the Foundations ministry this week. It is hard going. Please pray that our hearts will be open & soft to learn what the Lord is trying to teach us,
Henny.
Praying that the two of you will reap the benefits of persevering through this conference and as it blesses you, you’ll be able to one day bless another couple with your testimony.
“Dear Lord, please guide this special sister/brother during the trouble in their marriage. And their ears shall hear a word behind them saying, this is the way, walk here, when they turn to their right and when they turn to her left” (see Isa. 30:21).
Amen!
I need help praying for my wife; she moved out and is full of anger. Her heart is hardened and she will not let God in. Kristina is an amazing woman but she can’t hear God with the anger she has built up. Please help me soften my wife’s heart and help show her that our marriage is worth fighting for. Thank you so much.
Praying that Kristina will let go of her anger and let God into her heart so that she can deal with the root of her anger. Praying that her heart is filled with more love, peace and joy and that she focuses on the good, pure and lovely …recognizing that she has a marriage worth fighting for. Also praying that as the two of you fight for your marriage, you’re blessed by God in ways you never imagined.
Marriage with a spouse who deals with depression, anxiety, medical issues is very difficult. I try very hard to make my spouse happy but nothing seems to be good enough. My spouse finds things to criticize about what I do or say almost every day. Somedays I wonder why I continue to try. I love my spouse but the issues they deal with makes it difficult for me to live a positive and fulfilling life. It seems that they are trying to bring me down all the time. To make me feel bad because they do. We continue to seek help outside our marriage. Please pray for us.
Praying that you continue to persevere and see God at work in your wife’s heart and life – that no matter what you focus on the good. Praying that you set appropriate boundaries and do not become resentful, but continue to love your wife and that one day soon that unconditional love will be returned.
1. Pray for me to find my wife this year and marry her this year. Pray she comes into my life. 2. Pray that my mom gets better with COPD and heart. 3. Pray for my sister…Dorothy. 4. Pray for God to show me whether I need to stay at my job another year or not. Pray that he will also open up a door in preaching for me. Pray for financial blessings. 4. Pray God makes things better at my current work and restores friendships. Pray for peace in my life..I need it…
Praying that you continue on the path God has for you and that with each decision and blessing you receive you have peace and trust that God is ordering your steps.
Can you please, please, please put me and my wife Cynthia in prayer? I really need prayer over my marriage. It means so much to me. Thanks, Benjamin from Western Australia
Praying for you and Cynthia to have a marriage that honors God and fulfills both of you.
