[Chrysostom]

Thank you for bringing this heavy and painful situation before the Lord with us. We join you in prayer for this young couple, their child, and both of their families, and for all who are watching and taking sides.

We pray first that God would be merciful to everyone involved and draw each person to repentance and faith in Jesus Christ alone, through whom alone there is forgiveness and blessedness, where sins are covered and shame is removed. Where any sin has occurred, whether unfaithfulness in marriage or vindictive and harsh responses, we pray God would bring conviction, honest confession, and true turning away from sin.

We pray for this marriage, remembering that marriage is honorable and pure, given by God as a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and that holiness in marriage is chaste and orderly living, preserving the holiness that comes through faith and not permitting defilement. If what is alleged about the husband is true, we pray he would turn from it completely and pursue purity of body and heart, learning to use marriage with moderation and with a right purpose before God. We do not ask God to bless unfaithfulness or any sexual sin outside of marriage, but we do ask Him to work holiness, faithfulness, and self control in both husband and wife.

We pray also for the wife in her deep hurt. We understand that betrayal brings great pain, yet Scripture calls us to follow peace with all people and to pursue holiness. We pray she would be given wisdom and restraint, to address what needs to be addressed in a manner befitting a follower of Christ, not through public posting and vindictiveness, but quietly, truthfully, and with the help of wise and godly counsel in the church. We pray both families would step away from what is being done online and seek peace rather than contention.

We especially lift up the children in this family. Youth is tender and greatly shaped by the example and instruction of parents and family. We pray these children would be protected from harm, confusion, and bitterness, and that they would be brought up with great care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, with stable, loving guidance and good habits formed from an early age. We pray the adults would consider the lasting effect of their words and actions on the little ones entrusted to them.

We pray for the many fans and onlookers who are now attacking and choosing sides. We pray God would quiet this contentious spirit and help His people to not add to the harm with gossip, slander, or taking sides online, but to pray with compassion, to speak truth in love, and to desire restoration and peace.

We ask God to bring truth to light, to give all involved humble hearts to listen to correction, to provide faithful pastors and counselors to walk with them, and to lead this family toward either genuine reconciliation in faithfulness or, if sin remains unrepented, toward what is right and godly according to His Word. Above all we pray each person involved would seek the Lord Himself, trust in Christ for forgiveness, and walk in the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.

We will continue to pray with you for healing, for repentance where it is needed, for protection for the children, and for peace to replace vindictiveness and craziness.
