Chrysostom
Beloved of All
Thank you for sharing your heart with us and for beginning with thanksgiving. We join you in thanking the Lord for waking you to see another day that He has made, and for His mercies that are new every morning.
We are praying with you for healing, for peace, and for understanding in your home, and we are lifting up your husband to the Lord in his incarceration since yesterday. Times like this are heavy and painful, and Scripture reminds us that following Christ does not always bring immediate ease in this life, yet Christ Himself is our true peace and our hope in trial. We pray that God will guard your husband, bring him to repentance and to faith where he needs it, and draw him to salvation through Jesus Christ alone, for there is no other name by which we are saved.
We also thank God for your marriage, and we encourage you to hold fast to it as God designed it, a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, bound so long as both shall live. This is the chief strength of a household, when a man and his wife agree together in the Lord. In that agreement there is good order and love, and what builds up a home more than love and peace lived out faithfully. As you walk through this separation, continue to show the gentleness, meekness and quiet faithfulness that honors God. The husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the Church, and the Church is subject to Christ, so a wife's willing respect and steadfast love, offered as unto the Lord, becomes a powerful testimony. Do not withdraw from your husband in heart or in duty, but remain faithful, pray for him, visit him as you are able, speak truth with grace, and let your life show the hope you have in Christ.
We are praying that God will give you His peace that passes understanding, that He will bring healing where there is hurt, and that He will keep your entire family in His care. We join you also in praying for families and nations around the world, that many would turn to Christ and walk in His ways.
May the Lord, who is the Savior of the body, keep you and your husband and all your loved ones, strengthen your love for one another, and establish your home in good order, peace and love. We ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Beloved of All
Thank you for sharing your heart and for the thankfulness you have expressed for each new day God gives. The Lord hears that gratitude, and He hears your cry for healing, peace and understanding for yourself, for your husband, for your family and for the world around you.
Scripture shows that God deeply desires to give you peace. He proclaims peace to those who are far off and to those who are near, and with that peace He brings healing and restoration. That peace is not found by searching in other places, it is found in Jesus Christ alone. He Himself is our peace. Through His death on the cross He broke down the wall that separated us from God and made a way for us to be forgiven and reconciled. For those who persist in rebellion against Him there is no real peace, their hearts remain like a troubled sea, but to all who will come to Him He extends a peace treaty, forgiveness for sin and a new heart.
When you turn to Jesus and trust Him alone for salvation, the war with God ends. You have peace with God, and then God gives you the peace of God to keep your heart and mind. That peace passes all understanding. It guards you even when circumstances are painful and uncertain. In the New Testament grace always comes before peace, because you cannot know the settled peace of God until you have first received His grace.
I know this is a heavy and painful time with your husband being incarcerated. God designed marriage as a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, where husband and wife belong to one another in love and faithfulness, showing kindness and honor to each other. The Lord's instruction is to remain faithful to that covenant, to not depart lightly, but to seek reconciliation and to pursue peace in the home. God has called us to peace. If your husband is willing to remain in the marriage, remain faithful and pray for him. Your steady walk with Christ, your soft answer and your quiet trust can be a powerful witness. Scripture asks, how do you know whether your faithful life may be the means God uses to bring your husband to salvation as he sees Christ in you.
In this difficult season, ask God for the wisdom that comes from above, because that wisdom is peaceable. It first brings peace within your own heart, calming inner turmoil, and then it helps you to make peace with others. Those who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness, and Jesus said the peacemakers are blessed and called children of God. Seek peace and pursue it, even while you wait, and let God form that fruit in you.
I am praying for you and with you.
Father, thank You for this dear sister and for her thankful heart for each day You create. I ask You to pour out Your grace upon her and then Your peace that guards heart and mind. Grant her healing in body and soul, and give her understanding through Your wisdom. I lift up her husband to You in his confinement. Protect him, work in his heart, bring him to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ if he does not yet know You, and bring peace and restoration to their marriage according to Your will. Comfort and strengthen their family, and let Your healing and peace extend to many others and to nations around the world who need You. Draw each one who is far off to come near through Jesus, that they may know forgiveness and the deep, beautiful peace that only You can give. In Jesus name, Amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer and we have been lifting up your thanksgiving for the new day the Lord has created and your requests before the Father.
We have continued to pray for your healing and for the peace and understanding you asked for, claiming Philippians 4:7 that the peace of God which passes all understanding will guard your heart and mind through Christ Jesus, and Psalm 147:3 that He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. We have also been standing in agreement for your husband who was incarcerated just yesterday, that the Lord would protect him, draw near to him, bring him comfort and strength and guide him through this difficult time. We continue to lift up your entire family and the nations around the world as you asked, asking the Lord to pour out His healing and mercy upon all.
If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know so we may rejoice with you. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek Him through His Son, Jesus Christ.
We pray that the Lord will fill you with His peace, grant you complete healing, watch over your husband and keep your family in His care, and let His will be done in the nations. We ask all these things in Jesus name, Amen.
