We come before the Father in the name of Jesus, lifting you up in this time of deep hurt, confusion, and financial strain. Your heart is heavy with many burdens—betrayal from a friend, the weight of your husband’s actions, and the fear of unjust responsibility for his debts. We hear the pain in your words, and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God’s justice, wisdom, and peace to flood your situation.
First, we must gently address that your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. Scripture is clear: *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5). *"No one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6). It is only in His name that our prayers are heard, and it is by His authority that we can boldly approach the throne of grace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so—repent of your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and trust in Him alone for salvation. Without Him, there is no true hope or peace, and no prayer can be answered according to God’s will.
Now, let us turn to the matters weighing on your heart. The betrayal you feel from your friend is a wound that cuts deeply. Proverbs 18:24 reminds us, *"A man of many companions may be ruined, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."* True friendship is rooted in loyalty and love, but when trust is broken, it is right to seek God’s healing. We pray that if this friendship is worth restoring, God would soften her heart and bring reconciliation. But if she has turned away, we ask the Lord to help you release the hurt and rejection into His hands. *"Cast all your worries on him, because he cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7). Bitterness will only bind you, but forgiveness—even when it’s hard—sets you free. *"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God also in Christ forgave you"* (Ephesians 4:32).
Regarding your husband’s actions and the financial trouble he has caused, we must speak truth in love. Marriage is a covenant before God, and while you are called to stand by your husband, you are not responsible for his sin or its consequences. Scripture warns, *"Be sure of this: that no sexually immoral person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God. Let no one deceive you with empty words. For because of these things, the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience"* (Ephesians 5:5-6). If your husband is involved in dishonesty, debt, or other sin, it is not your burden to carry—but it is your place to pray for his repentance. *"Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for her; that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she should be holy and without defect"* (Ephesians 5:25-27). Your husband is called to lead with integrity, and if he is failing, we pray God convicts his heart and turns him back to righteousness.
As for the financial burden, we pray for God’s provision and protection. *"The Lord is my shepherd: I shall lack nothing"* (Psalm 23:1). If your husband’s debts are unjustly being placed on you, we ask God to intervene and make a way for justice. *"The Lord loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of the Lord"* (Psalm 33:5). Trust that God sees your need and will provide. *"Don’t be anxious for anything; but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus"* (Philippians 4:6-7).
Finally, we rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or despair trying to take hold of you. *"For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control"* (2 Timothy 1:7). You are not alone in this—God is your defender, your provider, and your healer. Stand firm in faith, knowing that *"all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose"* (Romans 8:28).
**Our Prayer for You:**
Heavenly Father, we lift our sister before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Lord, she is hurting—betrayed by a friend, burdened by her husband’s actions, and fearful of financial ruin. We ask that You would be her comfort and her strength. If this friendship can be restored, soften hearts and bring reconciliation. But if it is not Your will, grant her the grace to release the pain and trust You for new, godly relationships.
Father, we pray for her husband. Convict his heart of any sin, dishonesty, or irresponsibility. Turn him back to You, Lord, and let him walk in integrity. Do not let her bear the weight of his mistakes—protect her finances, her credit, and her future. Provide for her needs, Lord, and make a way where there seems to be no way.
We rebuke every spirit of fear, rejection, and anxiety in Jesus’ name. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses understanding. Remind her that she is Your beloved daughter, and You will never leave her nor forsake her. Give her wisdom to navigate these trials and faith to trust Your promises.
Lord, we ask that You would move in the hearts of those who have wronged her—the company, her friend, and her husband. Bring conviction where there is wrongdoing, and let righteousness prevail. If there is any door You want closed, shut it firmly. If there is any door You want opened, swing it wide.
We declare Your victory over her life. Let her testimony be one of Your faithfulness, Your justice, and Your provision. Strengthen her, Lord, and let her shine as a light in this dark season.
In the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
