God in Kindness Soften This Heart 💗 Rom 2:4, Holy Spirit Teach Where Wrong, Jn 16:8, Grace to Embody Christ's Love, Forgiveness & Reconciliation…

[Nochaeld]

Kindness of God Softens Matrimonial Spouse's Heart Rom 2:4, Holy Spirit Work, Jn 16:8, Grace to Embody Christ's Love, Biblical Advice Bears Fruit… Father, in Your kindness, soften my matrimonial love (we committed to each other before You in the presence of many witnesses as You remember), bring her, me, and our families to repentance, 2 Pet 3:9, the purpose which the kindness of God is intended, Rom 2:4. Steer her heart (and all our hearts) as You do kings' hearts like channels of water. Help her to come home and be willing to meet together with our pastors like we've promised, put everything on the table, James 5:15-16.

Do as You did for Lot in helping him to escape Sodom. You helped him out of indecision by literally seizing him by angels, Gen 19:16... Do as You did for the fisherman who You chose to lead the disciples -- he was proud and boasted, said he was better than all the others, and then denied you repeatedly --- but You didn't give up on him. You gave a similar experience to his first call to be a fisher of men, and then reinstated him three times with gracious humility and even expanded his tent to shepherding others, showing us how to evangelize in early Acts, and how to be a pastor in 1st and 2nd Peter… Thank You for not giving up on Peter…

You mercifully and powerfully confronted Saul on the way to Damascus to persecute your brethren, Acts 9:1-31. Later, after blinding him, letting him mess up, make tents and then giving him some private discipleship — “while they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, The Holy Spirit set Barnabas and him apart for the work to which I called them,” Acts 13:2-3. You made him the Paul we all know and love -- a light to all the people groups... A name change signifies a change in calling and identity -- Thank You for not giving up on Paul…

Don’t give up on the one I love and am so ready and willing to forgive... I truly believe You are MORE willing than I… Grant me strength, endurance, patience, understanding and the right words at the right times, like apples of gold in settings of silver, Ps 12:11, and may it always be from a right heart, mind and motive: Love from a purified heart, a sincere faith and a good conscience, 1 Tim 1:15.

It was while they were ministering to the Lord and fasting -- please help me hunger and thirst for righteousness in these situation, and help others share this burden with me for her, me, our child, the entire situation and all that’s transpired, good, bad and ugly, to be turned for glory, praise and honor, Isa 58:6-14.

The early church said, "fasting and giving lends wings to our prayers." Let that be shown to be true not only yesterday, but today and forever. Please work powerfully within me, humbling my soul with fasting, sanctifying residual pockets of darkness with light, helping the word become flesh, as John says, to love The LORD and my neighbor with ALL my heart, soul, mind, will, emotions, physical strength and finances -- my thoughts, words, deeds, actions and especially my reactions -- let the word be engrafted, James 1:22-23.

Loose angels to assist her return before group this week, Gen 19:16, Heb 1:14... Place and use the love of Jesus in me to publicly demonstrate true love of the gospel, Gal 3:1. Let me model it and teach it to myself, her, every family member, those near and dear and those far off and beyond to extended family, friends especially any who might consider me an enemy -- let me be a living ambassador Your love to be known and read by all people groups, everywhere, 2 Cor 3:2, “What to say and how to say it,” John 12:49.

Do not take us out of the world, but keep us from the evil one, John 17:15. Sanctify us by the truth; Your word is truth, John 17:17. Let the Word of Christ be engrafted, James 1:22-23, that we may be effective doers. Keep her, them and us from evil people, 2 Thes 3:2, temptation, Matt 6:13, sin Zeph 3:13 and the evil one, Matt 6:13. Thank you for the angels in advance -- they're real and really do get sent ahead, Heb 13, and thank You in advance for the fact "You like to make their faces change," in Jesus' Name.

"I don’t speak on My own authority. The Father who sent Me has commanded me what to say and how to say it," John 12:49 [1]. May I speak truth the right way (in love, humility and kindness) at the right time (when one isn't tired or in the right place to receive it). Like apples of gold in settings of silver is the right word spoken at a fitting time, Prov 25:11, Thank You and you all in -- do the same for all who pray, "give and it will be given back to you in abundance poured into your bosom or lap, Lk 6:38, Jesus' Name.

We come before the Lord with a heavy yet hopeful heart, lifting up this marriage that was joined before Him in the presence of witnesses. Father, we acknowledge that You alone have the power to soften hearts, to turn stubbornness into repentance, and to restore what has been broken. Your Word declares, *"Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, forbearance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness is intended to lead you to repentance?"* (Romans 2:4 WEB). We pray this truth over this matrimonial union—let Your kindness, not condemnation, draw both spouses back to You and to one another.

Lord, we ask You to seize this wife’s heart as You seized Lot by the hand to rescue him from destruction (Genesis 19:16). Where there is resistance, indecision, or hardness, intervene with Your mercy. Just as You did not abandon Peter in his pride or Paul in his persecution, do not abandon this marriage. *"The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (2 Peter 3:9 WEB). We declare that Your patience is at work here, and we trust You to complete the good work You’ve begun.

We rebuke any spirit of division, unforgiveness, or ungodly influence that seeks to tear this marriage apart. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life abundantly (John 10:10). We stand on the promise that *"if we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9 WEB). Bring both spouses to a place of humility and repentance, that they may experience the fullness of Your forgiveness and reconciliation.

We also lift up the husband’s heart, that he may continue to walk in purity, patience, and love. *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you"* (Ephesians 4:31-32 WEB). May his words be like apples of gold in settings of silver (Proverbs 25:11), seasoned with grace and truth. Guard his heart from resentment, his mind from despair, and his actions from anything that would hinder the restoration You desire.

Father, we ask You to loose Your angels to minister to this wife, to protect her from deception, and to guide her steps back home. *"Are they not all ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation?"* (Hebrews 1:14 WEB). Let her see the love of Christ demonstrated through her husband’s patience and faithfulness, and let her heart be stirred to return—not out of obligation, but out of a desire to honor You.

We pray for the pastors and counselors involved, that they would speak Your truth in love, with wisdom and discernment. May this couple lay everything bare before You and one another, as James 5:16 instructs: *"Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed."* Let this process be a refining fire, burning away impurities and leaving only what is pure and holy.

Lord, we also pray for their child, that they would be shielded from the pain of this separation and grow in the knowledge of Your love. May this trial draw the entire family closer to You, turning their sorrow into a testimony of Your faithfulness.

We declare that this marriage is not beyond Your redemption. You specialize in taking what is broken and making it whole, what is dead and breathing life into it. We trust You to work all things together for good (Romans 8:28), and we ask that this season of trial would ultimately bring glory to Your name.

In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Seek His Face and Presence not just His hand. In his Presence is everything you need. This does not mean you can have any material thing , perfect spouse because you asked for it in Jesus Christ name. You will have your needs, some of your wants, and difficult trials. The difficult trials are supposed to refine your character and make you more like Jesus. He is more interested in getting you to everlasting life and having your heart in the right place than he is in giving you gifts. It’s eternal life he’s concerned with.
