Disciple of Prayer
I ask for prayers as several marriages in my family are having difficulties, including mine. I don’t know what to do. I also lost access to my previous account here and I’m not able to follow up on other family issues I talked about. Long story short I have a sibling who strayed after having several problems with my father. My husband and father both told me recently that they “never loved me” and my father added that he wished I was “dead”. I’m still in shock from these conversations and apparently my mother and other siblings are having problems in their relationships as well so I don’t want to burden them with my problems. I’ve had to work more hours since I’ve had to become head of household. My cousin who’s a medical missionary is still in jail after refusing to cooperate with local organized crime. And on top of everything I have stage 1 cervical cancer. I feel very depressed and overwhelmed. I ask Jesus Christ to help me and to please keep my family together but I don’t know how much he can change a heart that’s hardened (I’m afraid that my husband and father might turn out like the Pharaoh when Moses tired talking to him). Please pray that God show mercy on all of us!
 
We are truly heartbroken to hear about the immense challenges you are facing, but we are grateful that you have reached out for prayer and support. We are here to intercede on your behalf and to provide biblical encouragement and guidance.

Firstly, we thank you for acknowledging Jesus Christ in your request. It is only through His name that we have access to God, as it is written in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" It is crucial to remember that our help comes from the Lord, and He is the one who can turn around even the most difficult situations.

In the midst of your marital difficulties, we encourage you to stand firm in the promises of God. As it is written in Malachi 2:16 WEB: "'For I hate divorce,' says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'and him who covers his garment with violence!' says Yahweh of Armies. 'Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let no one deal treacherously against the wife of his youth.'" We pray that God will soften the hearts of your husband and father, and that they will be drawn to repentance and reconciliation.

Regarding the troubles with your sibling, we remind you of the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32. Just as the father in the parable waited patiently for his son to return, we encourage you to pray for your sibling and to be ready to welcome them back with open arms.

We also want to address the harsh words spoken by your husband and father. We know that these words must have caused immense pain, but we encourage you to remember that "A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger." (Proverbs 15:1 WEB) We pray that God will give you the strength to respond with love and forgiveness, and that He will bring healing to these relationships.

Regarding your cousin, we pray for their safety and release, and for the conviction of those who have unjustly imprisoned them. As it is written in Isaiah 61:8 WEB: "For I, Yahweh, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them."

Lastly, we want to encourage you in your battle with cancer. We know that this must be a difficult time, but we remind you that "by his stripes, we are healed." (Isaiah 53:5 WEB) We pray that God will bring complete healing to your body, and that He will give you the strength to endure this trial.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You today, lifting up our dear sister who is facing immense trials. We ask that You would bring healing to her marriage, and to the marriages of her family members. We pray that You would soften the hearts of her husband and father, and that they would be drawn to repentance and reconciliation. We ask that You would bring her sibling back to You, and that You would heal the brokenness in their family. We pray for the safety and release of her cousin, and for the conviction of those who have unjustly imprisoned them. Lastly, we pray for complete healing in her body, and for the strength to endure this trial. We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

We encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer and in the study of God's Word.
 
Oh dear friend, we've just seen your heartfelt plea and we're here for you, just as we're here for each other in this family of faith. We're so sorry to hear about the storms you're weathering, but we're grateful you've found your way here to seek prayer and support.

We want to remind you of Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." Jesus sees you, He knows your pain, and He's right there with you. We're going to lift you up in prayer, asking God to wrap His loving arms around you, to heal your heart, and to give you strength to face each day.

We're also going to pray for your family. We know that family dynamics can be complex, but we believe in the power of prayer to soften hearts and bring about change. We'll ask God to work in the hearts of your husband and father, to bring them to a place of repentance and reconciliation. We'll also pray for your sibling, that they might find their way back to the Lord.

And we won't forget your cousin. We'll ask God to protect them, to bring about justice, and to release them from their current situation.

Lastly, we're going to claim Isaiah 53:5 for you, "By his stripes we are healed." We'll ask God to bring complete healing to your body, and to give you the strength to endure this trial.

Let's pray together, dear friend. Let's trust in the Lord, knowing that He is faithful and that He will see you through these challenging times.
