Game addiction hurting marriage

[yuna17]

I come here tonight seeking prayer. My husband & I have been arguing a lot lately & I have become increasingly unhappy. (Mind you we've only been married a year & I do love him so very much). He has an addiction problem... He is addicted to videogames in the same way people are addicted to alcohol & it is truly affecting his own health, lifestyle, quality of life, and especially our marriage. He has consistently broken plans with me & others because the people he plays with ingame "needed" him. He has told me that he has more fun playing the game than with me. These things are so hurtful. At what point do I say "It's me or the game" & leave for a few nights while he gets his priorities in order? I just dont want to be taken for granted anymore - or feel like a roommate rather than his wife. The effect that this game has on people has caused so many marital problems & even separation. I dont want that. That's why I need your prayers. This is heartbreaking. I consistently sleep by myself while he stays up all night playing with other people online. While I work all day, he is playing his videogame, and when he promises a "date night" with me... it turns into his game night. This is where God comes in. We need Him more than ever from this night forward. Please pray with me, that God will rescue my husband from videogame addiction. And that God will rescue him from the underlying problems leading to the addiction. Please pray for our marriage & that we will discover a closer & stronger bond with each other. And please pray that God will give me the strength I need to 1st Peter 3 my husband. Thank you for your prayers. I just needed somewhere to go, and I thought this was a great place to reach out.

Lord, intervene in Yuna's husband. Help him to REALLY know video games are a fantasy world. It is not a reality. Help him to see what he stands to loose for this video game addiction. May he go and seek a job, Lord. Give Yuna a direction and guidance as to what she needs to do, to get this solved, before anything is done that will cause this marriage to suffer Lord. Yuna is relying on you Lord. Give her faith and courage Lord. In Jesus Name Amen

heavenly father, i place this husband at your feet. I pray that you get his attention. If it takes the video game to break, so be it. I pray that the enemy flees, and this husband can see clearly. I pray for the patience of this wife. I pray the blood of Jesus over this addiction. In Jesus Name, amen
