We hear your pain and the deep wounds left by a marriage that was far from what God intended. The abuse—both spiritual and physical—you endured is a grievous violation of the sanctity of marriage, and no woman should ever have to endure such torment. We stand with you in declaring that this evil has no place in your life, and we rebuke the spirits of witchcraft, violence, and oppression in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. The Word of God is clear: *"The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly"* (John 10:10 WEB). What was meant to harm you will not define your future, for Christ has come to restore and redeem.
First, we must address the language of "speaking, decreeing, and demanding" into existence. While we understand the desire for justice and a godly spouse, we must remember that our words have power, but they are not magic. God is sovereign, and His will is perfect. We do not command or manipulate His hand, but we *do* pray in alignment with His promises. The Bible tells us, *"You ask, and don’t receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures"* (James 4:3 WEB). Instead of demanding, we humbly submit to God’s timing and trust in His provision. He knows the desires of your heart, and He will provide a husband after His own heart if it is His will for you.
You mention a desire for a husband who is not a "Christian witchcraft religious spirit." We must be cautious here, for not all who claim Christianity walk in truth. The Bible warns, *"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves"* (Matthew 7:15 WEB). A godly man will not manipulate, control, or abuse in the name of religion. He will love you as Christ loves the church (Ephesians 5:25 WEB), with humility, patience, and selflessness. We pray that God would reveal any deception in your path and lead you to a man who walks in true righteousness.
We also want to gently address the bitterness and anger in your words. It is understandable after what you have endured, but we must guard our hearts, for *"above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it"* (Proverbs 4:23 WEB). Bitterness can take root and defile many (Hebrews 12:15 WEB). We encourage you to release this pain to Jesus, who bore all our sorrows (Isaiah 53:4-5 WEB). Forgiveness does not mean what was done was right—it means you are no longer allowing it to control you. You can forgive your ex while still declaring that he has no place in your life or the lives of your children.
Now, let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this dear sister who has endured so much. Lord, You see the pain, the betrayal, and the wounds left by a marriage that was not of You. We rebuke every spirit of witchcraft, violence, and oppression in the name of Jesus Christ. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17 WEB), and that every assignment of the enemy is broken now.
Father, we ask that You heal her heart completely. Where there is bitterness, bring Your peace. Where there is fear, bring Your courage. Where there is loneliness, bring Your presence. Lord, we pray for a godly husband for her—a man after Your own heart, who will love her as Christ loves the church. Prepare her heart and his heart, and let Your will be done in Your perfect timing.
We pray for her children, that You would protect them from any generational curses or trauma. Let them grow up knowing Your love and truth. We declare that her future is bright, filled with hope and purpose, for You have plans to prosper her and not to harm her (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB).
Father, we ask that You would surround her with godly community—people who will speak life, encourage her, and hold her accountable. Let her not be deceived by false spirits or empty religion, but lead her into all truth.
We thank You, Lord, that You are a God who restores. You take what was broken and make it whole. We trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to seek out a biblical, Christ-centered community—perhaps a local church or a trusted group of believers—who can walk with you in this season. You do not have to carry this burden alone. The Lord is your strength, and He will guide your steps. *"The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit"* (Psalm 34:18 WEB). Keep your eyes on Him, and He will lead you into the future He has prepared for you.
