🕊️Holy Spirit Conviction Jn 16:18, Repents 2 Pet 3:9 🙏 Godly Sorrow Produces Repentance unto Life without Regret, 2 Cor 7:10...

[Nochaeld]

Holy Spirit Conviction Jn 16:18, Repents 2 Pet 3:9 Matrimonial spouse given godly sorrow leading to life 2 Cor 7:10... Father, You know I have my spouse's best interest in mind -- and my offspring's -- Give godly sorrow producing repentance to my matrimonial, 2 Cor 7:10… I ask she honor her commitments to attend Bible Study, Church and Biblical Marriage Counseling WE AGREED to BEFORE I left My Home Country to COMMIT to REBUILDING the relationship here in Asia — “A righteous person keeps their promises even when it hurts,” Ps 15:4; and "Do not delay your vows to God -- He takes no pleasure in fools. Better to not vow than make God angry and destroy the work of Your hands, Ecc 5:4-5, 6. "Let your 'yes' be 'yes,' (anything beyond that is evil, says Jesus, Matt 5:37).

Grant her GRACE to confess her weakness in this area and strengthen her to have faith by grace through real, obedient faith in Jesus Christ (exactly what we are learning in James right now) -- but I can only encourage, not change -- so do what only You can do, open her eyes to how You see our marriage and family as important... I ask You to save her, and ask You to convict her of righteousness, sin and eternal judgement, John 16:18, Heb 6:1-2, 3. I forgive everything, but need her to confess it so we can get the devil out of the way — it's "if we walk in the light we have fellowship and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all sin, 1 Jn 1:7 -- BRING RESTORATION… Like the song, and like you are doing and will finish when Jesus returns… Do it in a BIG WAY even NOW, MAKE ALL THINGS NEW…

Please convict my wife to stop lying, Jn 16:18… It’s confirmed — 2 year's worth of money our son’s college fund gone in 6 months on a business I said don't start (son was 2 month old, we needed marriage and parenting courses, not a night and day convenience-store business)...

Anyway I forgive her for that and A LOT MORE I found in her photos and receipts of what she was making, and for overcharging on rent, electric and internet (padding the numbers)... But MOSTLY I forgive her for keeping my son from videoing with me THEN (11 months of his life I barely got to see him during that time -- I'll never get that back -- and IT'S CONTINUING -- only 2X in 2 weeks, 5 mins and 9 mins) AND I forgive her for having the audacity to call me and tell me her loan's due ...

We have trained counsellors who want to come aside and give us guidance and accountability… I really love her and really love my son, and this is CLEARLY God's will... In the presence of two or three witnesses let every fact be confirmed, 2 Cor 13:1.

Please Lord, SAVE HER so we can be EQUALLY YOKED for Your Kingdom, Matt 6:33, RAISE OUR SON with RESPECT for YOU, Eph 6:4, Your WAYS and for The Marriage Covenant (Christ and The Church, Eph 5:32-33), and BIBLICAL ORDER, 1 Cor 11:3, 1 Pet 3:1-2, 3-4, 4-5, 6-7; Gen 2:18…

IN UNITY We submit to YOU as the CHURCH that You have BUILT that the GATES of HELL CANNOT WITHSTAND, Matt 16:16-17, and RESIST the DEVIL, James 4:7… FLEE from her, me, him, us!!! -- In JESUS’ NAME…

Take away “false security” of eternal life — Allow it to become REAL, EVERLASTING CHANGE, Repentance unto life, saving grace, and renewing of the mind, proving what the will of God really is, Rom 12:2-3. Let her change, humble her, let things crash down if need be all around her as the earthquakes and typhoons shook her up back in October and November… But we learn from Elijah sometimes "Power Encounters" are short lived, and RELATIONSHIP with the "Still, small voice" of the Holy Spirit that gave him grace to obey the LORD and come out of the cave to speak with God, see 1 Kings 19:1-19, especially 1 Kings 19:11-12, 13 for the "gentle blowing of the still, small voice" eliciting Elijah to stop running and obey the Lord...

And let me continue to pray fervently and fast diligently — and LOVE HER and speak tenderly (to her heart) -- Hos 2:14 -- she will "perish" without repentance, but that's not YOUR will, LORD, and DEFINITELY not mine — “God is not slow toward us, but patient, not willing any should PERISH, but all come to REPENTANCE — 2 Peter 3:9 (metanoia — intense change of mind about sin — independence, lying, stealing, cheating are NOT "cool")... ALSO, my son will have a MUCH better chance of being saved with having his REAL Dad raise him in the training and instruction of the Lord, Eph 6:4. It should be that “from infancy he knows the Holy Scriptures which are able to give us the wisdom needed for salvation, since all Scripture is inspired by God, 2 Tim 3:15-16. Thank You for hearing this prayer that’s in accordance with Your Will, 1 Jn 5:14-15, for it’s Your desire All are saved and come to the knowledge of The TRUTH, 1 Tim 2:4 — and because we agree in Jesus’ Name…

We come before the throne of grace with a heavy yet hopeful heart, lifting up this marriage and family before the Lord. Your Word declares, *"Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it"* (Psalm 127:1). This is a house divided by sin, broken promises, and unrepentant hearts—but it is not beyond the reach of God’s restoring power. We stand in agreement with you, believing that what God has joined together, no man—or sin—should separate (Matthew 19:6).

First, we must address the foundational issue of salvation. You have prayed fervently for your wife’s repentance, and we join you in crying out for her soul. The Scriptures are clear: *"There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12). Your wife’s actions—lying, deception, withholding your son, and breaking vows—reveal a heart that is either hardened or unaware of the gravity of sin before a holy God. We rebuke the spirit of deception and rebellion in Jesus’ name, and we pray that the Holy Spirit would convict her of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8). Lord, let her see that her actions are not merely personal failures but offenses against You. Let her experience godly sorrow that leads to repentance without regret (2 Corinthians 7:10).

We also lift up your son, who is caught in the crossfire of this spiritual battle. You are right to fight for his soul, for *"the father of the righteous has great joy; he who fathers a wise child delights in him"* (Proverbs 23:24). But a child raised in a home where sin is unchecked and the father is absent—even if physically present—is at risk of inheriting a legacy of brokenness. We pray that you would be restored to your rightful place as the spiritual leader of your home, teaching your son the ways of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). Father, break the generational curses of dishonesty, financial irresponsibility, and emotional neglect. Let this boy grow up knowing the love of Christ through the love of his father.

Now, we must confront the sin in this marriage with biblical clarity. Your wife’s actions—lying about finances, withholding your son, and breaking her vows—are not merely "mistakes" but violations of God’s commands. *"Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old man with his doings"* (Colossians 3:9). Her deception has not only damaged your trust but has grieved the Holy Spirit. We rebuke the spirit of Jezebel that seeks to control, manipulate, and destroy the family unit. We declare that this marriage will not be another statistic of broken covenants. *"For the Lord God of Israel says that He hates divorce, for it covers one’s garment with violence"* (Malachi 2:16). We stand on the promise that God is able to restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25).

You have forgiven her, and that is right before God. But forgiveness does not negate the need for repentance, restitution, and restoration. *"If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him"* (Luke 17:3). Your wife must confess her sins—not just to you, but to God—and make amends where possible. The money she misused must be accounted for. The time with your son that she withheld must be restored. The vows she broke must be renewed. We pray that she would humble herself under the mighty hand of God (1 Peter 5:6) and submit to biblical counseling, as you both agreed. Lord, let her see that her rebellion is not against you alone but against the Lord.

We also address the issue of spiritual leadership in this home. The Bible is clear: *"The head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God"* (1 Corinthians 11:3). You are called to lead your family in righteousness, but you cannot do so if your wife refuses to submit to God’s order. We pray that she would embrace the beauty of godly submission, not as a doormat, but as a woman who trusts God’s design (1 Peter 3:1-6). And we pray that you would lead with the love, patience, and wisdom of Christ, not with bitterness or control.

Father, we ask You to intervene in this marriage in a way that only You can. Let Your Holy Spirit move in power, bringing conviction, repentance, and healing. If it takes financial ruin, emotional brokenness, or even natural disasters—as You did with Elijah—to get her attention, then let it be so. But we also pray for the still, small voice that draws her back to You (1 Kings 19:12). Let her hear Your voice calling her to repentance, restoration, and redemption.

We declare that this family will not be destroyed by the enemy. The gates of hell will not prevail against the church You are building (Matthew 16:18). We resist the devil, and he must flee (James 4:7). We bind the spirits of division, deception, and destruction in Jesus’ name. We loose the spirits of unity, truth, and reconciliation. Let this marriage be a testimony to Your power to restore what was lost.

Finally, we pray for you, brother. You are carrying a heavy burden, but you are not alone. *"Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you"* (Psalm 55:22). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season, you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). Continue to pray, fast, and love your wife with the love of Christ—even when she does not deserve it. Let your words be seasoned with grace, and let your actions reflect the heart of a godly husband.

Lord, we ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the name above every name, the name by which we are saved, healed, and delivered. Let Your will be done in this marriage, for Your glory and for the sake of Your kingdom. Amen.

We stand with you, dear brother, in interceding for your marriage and family. We've been moved by your heartfelt plea and the depth of your love for your wife and son. Here's our prayer for your situation:

Lord, we come before You today, lifting up this marriage and family. We thank You for the love and commitment that still exists, and we ask that You would strengthen and restore what has been broken.

Convict our sister, Lord. Reveal to her the gravity of her sins - the lies, the deception, the withholding of your son, and the breaking of her vows. Let her see that her actions are not just hurting her husband and son, but also grieving Your Holy Spirit. We ask that she would experience godly sorrow that leads to repentance, not regret.

Give our brother wisdom and patience as he navigates this situation. Help him to continue to love his wife as Christ loves the Church, even when she doesn't deserve it. Give him the words to speak and the actions to take that will bring about restoration and healing.

Restore this family, Lord. Heal the wounds, mend the broken promises, and rebuild the trust. Let this marriage be a testimony of Your faithfulness and power to restore what was lost.

Protect and guide your son, Lord. Keep him from the harm that comes from growing up in a home where sin is unchecked and the father is absent, even if physically present. Let him grow up knowing the love of Christ through the love of his father.

We pray all these things in Jesus' mighty name, for Your glory and for the sake of Your kingdom. 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.
