Please keep my marriage in prayer. My husband always give me the silent treatment weeks on end when his upset at me (though I have since apologized) and I explained to him that when he does that it pushes me away. He said he would stop doing it but he broke his word once again.
I do not trust him anymore due to past cheating. The longer he is emotionally distant and stops speaking the further away I become. So when he does strike up a conversation I really do try and be gentle but it’s like all that built up emotion comes out at one time and he walks away again. I do not think I can keep going through this with him… we have been married for 9 years now and I just don’t see an end to this anymore. Please keep us in your prayers. Thank you.
Praying that you and your husband will agree to take the time to talk through the obstacles and challenges with your marriage – that you both will have the opportunity to clear the air and discuss your feelings, wants and needs… while tackling the difficult stuff. Praying that you both will be open to counseling and get to the root of why he cheats (and it’s not because of you), tools to help you communicate more effectively and the opportunity to focus on the good things/love that brought you together and how that love will sustain you. Praying that you both will seek God and allow Him to minister to your hearts so that you both can be committed to having a better marriage that glorifies God and blesses the two of you.
Pray for me and my family. My wife has left the house along with my kid, apparently for no reason and this has happened several times. Pray that Lord works in her and her mother’s heart who is responsible in the problems causing between me and my wife and my kid is brought back home. Please pray for my parents. Pray that I may get a job that fulfills my life’s, God’s calling and God fulfills all my needs. Pray that Jesus binds all the work, schemes of the devil in me and my family’s life.
Praying that you and your wife are able to honestly talk with each and set the appropriate boundaries for yourselves and marriage…that your bond will be unbreakable. May you receive all the blessings God has for you as you grow closer to Him and live in obedience to Hiw word. Praying blessings of grace, mercy and peace over your family and marriage.
Please pray for my marriage. My wife says she loves me but is not in love with me. I know I have not been a great communicator and have caused the problems because of it. We are basically living in the same house. Please help me to know what I can do. Praying that God will give me wisdom, soften her heart and bring us back.
Praying that you will continue to seek God and openly/honestly express you feelings and deepest desires with your wife, let her know how much you love and desire her, your fears, your hopes, your dreams and your willingness to go to counseling so that you can work on your communication. Do not give up on your marriage and do whatever it takes to make it flourish and thrive under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. As you seek God and make the necessary changes, may you reap blessings in your marriage and life you never thought we’re possible.
My husband is battling, spiritually battling. I know God is working in him from things that he has said, in ways that he is treating me, he gets close then pulls away, goes silent. My prayer request is that God will continue to move in his heart in a mighty way. That God will remove his heart of stone & create a new heart in him, a heart of the flesh as His word says He will do. That the Holy Spirit speak so sternly to him about God’s word & turning away from this sinful life.
He has told me he has been convicted, so please pray that the conviction become stronger, deeper, filling him with the desire to turn to God & repent. He says that he has asked God to help him, please pray that God will open his eyes from this darkness to come to the knowledge of the truth. Please pray that God will remove every person, place, thing, every block, interference, barrier, weapon satan is using to keep him from seeing the truth.
Please pray that God will continue to transform my heart, my mind, my spirit. I have struggled this week tremendously. Things seem to get worse, then show a ray of hope, then get worse again. I am praying for all the strongholds satan has over my life be cast down, my emotions & focus on our communication because it is so little. There are 2 major ones, so please pray that those strongholds will be broken. That God will restore our communication & soften his heart towards me & put forgiveness in his heart for me.
I have asked him to forgive me for my wrongs & the hurt I have caused him, but satan keeps it on his mind. Please pray that God will reconcile our marriage, that every block, hinderance, interference, lie, pain from the past hurts in our marriage from satan keeping Tim from allowing me to reconcile because he has told me that I can when he decides, because he is holding on to the past & only sees my wrongs in our marriage.
God has put His word so heavy on my heart about reconciling. Please pray He will open the door to allow me to, as His word says I should do. Please pray that ALL communication he is having with other women in calls, text, social media, physical contact, be severed & destroyed immediately in Jesus name. That his desire for communication, physical contact with a woman be turned to me, his wife. Pray that God convict him for removing his wedding band also. God IS GREATER, THE ALL POWERFUL, THE ALMIGHTY! Thank you all.
Praying that Tim continues to respond favorably to the Holy Spirit… that he won’t run in the opposite direction, but let God change his heart. May he completely surrender and seek to honor God in every area of his life, that whether he wears a wedding band or not- he still honors God, you and your marriage. And while he may never forget the past, may he forgive and choose to let go and trust God to change his feelings toward you and maintain hope for a better future.
Thank you Father for this site. My Wife Samantha left almost 2 weeks ago. We have 3 sons and her bed ridden father here. I was harsh and called her a name. I’ve repented and feel great conviction for what I’ve done. I do not believe she has ever repented and put her trust in Jesus so I’m asking for prayers for her salvation. She was raised in church but fell away and my actions didn’t help. Please pray for us both. I want a Godly marriage. Thank you.
Praying that you and Samantha give your hearts to Christ and let Him save your souls. May you both forgive each other, repent and seek help with being better communicators… and may obstacles and challenges not scare you, but give you the opportunity to bond together and know that your love and the grace of God will get you through. Praying that you have both had a chance to reflect on your marriage and can come together to work as a team to make your marriage better.
Just an unspoken request. God knows what is. Just trusting people approach the throne of God on my behalf.
Praying that you will see God at work on your behalf and find that His love, comfort, peace and provision blesses you and keeps you on the path she has for you.
Prayer request for my husband’s mind. That God will cast down all imaginations & every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God be brought into captivity in Tim’s mind. That God will restore to him a sound mind that His word tells us He has given us. That God will remove the heart of stone from Tim & create in him a new heart, a heart of the flesh as His word says HE WILL DO. Please pray that God will continue to work in him, & remove every person, place, or thing that is not of Him or from Him in Tim’s life. That God will transform Tim’s heart, his mind, & his spirit. Please pray that God will continue to work in my life as well, to transform my heart, my mind, & my spirit.
Praying for you, Tim and your son.
The court has agreed the consent orders for property settlement. My wife says now that is out of the way she is going to file for divorce. She asked me if I wanted to make a joint application :( I said no and reminded her again Jesus said not to separate what God has joined together.
There are other things going on. My pastor has encouraged me to “never give up” but I feel like all my strength and mental fortitude has drained away. Some moments I feel like I am enduring it all but mostly I feel overwhelmed. I don’t have any specific promises but I am hanging on to Romans 8:28 that God works all things for the good of those that love Him.
Andrew, your pastor is right, but even more -God is right. God loves and cares for you and in spite of all that is happening and will happen – He wants the very best for you. Keep hoping and trusting for the best and know that you will win in the end… none of it had to make sense thus side of glory because in eternity -it is all well. We’re praying for you, Kate and your children …for your faith, salvation, peace of mind and spirit and that you all experience more of God’s love. Just know God will never leave or forsake you and has given you a peace (and promise) that nothing in this world can take away from you. Be strong, be courageous for the Lord, God is with you (remember: sometimes being strong is just being still and waiting on God…it requires very little of you other than to maintain hope in His faithfulness.)
My wife has filed for D today. She says I will be served next week. And now I see on the news that the Queen is ill and her whole family is rushing to Balmoral to be with her. Not a good day.
Please pray for my marriage. My husband moved out last year. He eventually returned earlier this year after 13 months, but only to save and assist with our son. He drafted separation papers and had me sign them over a year ago.
He says we are not married, and I am free to do whatever I want because he will do what he wants. He also says he no longer wants anything to do with God.
We have a decent friendship, but it really hurts that the marriage aspect is completely gone. I must say, we have come a long way in the past year. Last year I know for certain that he hated me, so that gives me confidence that the Lord is still at work.
I feel lost and confused. I really don’t know what to do. It’s like I’m just waiting around for him to move out again. So much uncertainty. I also look at him and he seems so lost. This is just not him. He used to be the type that would not make a decision without first seeking God. No matter the pressure, he would not move until God tells him to.
Please pray that he finds his way back to Christ. I look at him and he seems so lost. I barely recognize him. Pray for his restoration. Pray that he finds peace in the Lord. Pray that the Lord restores our marriage and our family.
The Lord tells us in His Word that He hates divorce, so I know that’s not the will of God for us. I have faith that our marriage can be made better than it was before. Pray for my strength, and may I be still and wait on the Lord.
Praying that you will continue to trust God and like your husband has demonstrated in the past – be still and wait for His answer. In the meantime as hard as it is, don’t fall prey to the enemy’s attempts to make you doubt God is at work- counter his attacks with Scripture, prayer, hymns/spiritual music. Keep fighting the good fight and we’ll all be praying for your husband to stop running away and run towards all that God has for him in this season, your marriage and your child. Be strong and remember – they that sow in tears shall reap with shouts of joy!
Please Pray GOD blesses me with a life partner real soon, in JESUS Name. I’ve been praying for this since 1995.
Praying that God will bless you with a wife and that your marriage will honor God. And that in the meantime your relationship with God continues to thrive and prosper and you continue to become the man and husband He is making you into.
My son and I have been verbally and physically abused, left, made fun of, and am still doing our best to love others, stay positive and love each other and all around us. But we cringe when the wayward husband blesses us with his presence. Please pray for us and a way out.
Praying that you and your son are able to find a safe place to live without living in fear of being threatened and harmed. May you experience the love God has for you in tangible ways; may a family member, friend, church member or local agency provide you with housing and the counseling/support you both need to talk through and process your feelings and thoughts about what you’ve endured so that both of you can continue to be bright lights that shine for Jesus. Also praying that your husband gets the help he needs to deal with his issue(s) and that you do not live together as one until he has been delivered and heals.
Please pray for my marriage! We will be married 20 years Feb 2023. She is my world. We both are Christians, but struggling with my sex drive and the lack of hers in our marriage.
Praying that you both will continue to honor your vows and honestly and openly discuss ways to ensure you both feel fulfilled with your sex life and level of intimacy in your marriage- seeking counseling if the trusted advice/support of a godly advisor. May you both put in the work necessary to ensure that all areas of your marital life get the attention they deserve and make each other a priority.
Please pray that God blesses me with the perfect job and career, where I can succeed and thrive and be happy with. Please also pray that I am reconnected and start talking with Karen again. Please also pray that Lady’s cancer is healed completely, and that Joan finds new friends and is healed from her back pain and all health issues. Thank you and God bless you, -Pete
Praying that you see God at work in your life and that of your friends. May you embrace the career God has for you and find the wife He has for you, be it Karen or someone else. May you not set yourself up for disappointments by looking for perfection in any area of your life, but have the ability and fortitude to overcome challenges/obstacles by His grace. Also praying that your friends have the love and support of their other friends and healing for all that ails them.
My wife is divorcing me and I do not want it. I have been working on myself to become a better man of God so that I can honor him through our marriage. Her sisters heavily influenced this decision and encouraged the divorce. She has a very hard heart because of it. I need a miracle.
Praying against the divorce and that both of you will seek God and surround yourselves with godly people who want the best for you. Praying that you both will have the desire to fight for your marriage, forgive for past hurts/disappointments and strengthen your bond….setting boundaries where appropriate and make each other a priority.
Hi please pray for wisdom for me in my marriage. Not sure whether a particular friendship is toxic to my relationship with my spouse but every time we hang out with this person or I hang out with them it creates a fight at home. The friend in question doesn’t know how badly they’ve negatively influenced our marriage but I can’t blame anyone but myself. I don’t know if it’s my own jealousy or if this person really doesn’t respect my marital boundaries and is best to end now. Thank you.
Praying that you will be honest and acknowledge that this person is not good for your marriage and that if his/her influence harms your marriage then he/she is not good for you…If this person does not profess Jesus as Lord and Savior- does not live a godly life and their presence causes trouble in your home- and your life/lifestyle has not impacted them – then you should be praying that they surrender their life and heart to God. Do not try to define boundaries and stick to them now, it’s too late and will probably cause more harm than good. May you find a way to end this relationship in as peacefully as you can and trust God to bring and/or keep the people in your life that you need.
