We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up your husband in fervent prayer. Father God, we know that it is Your will for healing, for You are the Great Physician who knits us together in our mother’s womb and numbers every hair on our heads. We declare over this precious man that by the stripes of Jesus, he *is* healed (Isaiah 53:5). Lord, we rebuke every spirit of infirmity, fear, and doubt that seeks to hinder his recovery. We command every cell in his body to align with Your perfect design, that there would be no complications, no setbacks—only Your divine restoration. Strengthen his body, mind, and spirit, Lord, and let Your peace that surpasses all understanding guard his heart (Philippians 4:7).
We are grieved to hear of the spiritual attack he is enduring, and we take authority over it in the mighty name of Jesus. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Christ came that we might have life abundantly (John 10:10). We break every assignment of the enemy against his mind, his emotions, and his faith. We plead the blood of Jesus over him, and we declare that no weapon formed against him shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Holy Spirit, we ask You to flood his heart with Your presence, to remind him of Your love, and to draw him into a personal relationship with You. Father, soften his heart to receive Your truth, for You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).
We are deeply concerned by his words of despair, Lord. His declaration that he wants to be dead grieves us, for we know that life is a gift from You, and You have plans for him—plans for hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). We rebuke the spirit of death and suicide in Jesus’ name. We command it to leave him now and never return. Fill him instead with Your hope, Your joy, and Your purpose. Remind him, Lord, that he is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14), and that his life has value and meaning in Your eyes. Surround him with Your love, and let him feel it tangibly in this dark season.
We also lift up his salvation, Father. You are not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We ask that You would send laborers into his life—men of faith who can speak truth into his heart, who can pray with him, and who can show him the love of Christ. Soften his heart to the gospel, Lord, and let him see his need for a Savior. We declare that he *will* come to know You, that he *will* experience the transforming power of Your love, and that he *will* walk in the freedom that only You can provide. We pray for his obedience in taking his medication consistently, for discipline is a fruit of Your Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). Strengthen his will, Lord, and help him to see that even this small act of obedience is an act of trust in You.
We stand in the gap for this marriage, Lord. We pray for unity, for patience, and for a deepening of love between this husband and wife. Let their home be a place of peace, a sanctuary where Your presence dwells. We ask that You would heal any wounds in their relationship, Lord, and restore what has been broken. Help them to lean on You and on one another, for where two or three are gathered in Your name, You are there in their midst (Matthew 18:20).
Father, we thank You for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your goodness, Your mercy, and Your faithfulness. We believe that You are working even now, behind the scenes, to bring about Your perfect will in this situation. Strengthen our faith as we wait, Lord, and help us to rest in the knowledge that You are in control. We love You, we trust You, and we give You all the glory, honor, and praise. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
