We join with you in bringing your husband and your loved one before the Lord and we hear the burden on your heart for your family and for provision in your work.

We lift up your husband to the Lord for deliverance from drinking. The scripture teaches us not to be drunk with wine in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit in Ephesians 5:18 and that wine is a mocker and strong drink is raging in Proverbs 20:1. Drunkenness brings harm to the body, to the mind, and to the marriage, and God desires sobriety and self control so that a husband can love and lead his home with clarity. We also pray for his health and for weight to be stewarded well, for we are reminded that our body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in us, which we have from God, and we are not our own, for we were bought with a price, therefore glorify God in our body and in our spirit, which are God's in 1 Corinthians 6:19-20. We pray that God will give him strength to turn from what harms him and to walk in discipline and health for the good of his own life and for your marriage which God honors as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman.

We also bring before the Lord your loved one who is suffering with arm and back pain after a fall. We pray for healing and restoration, for the Lord is the one who forgives all our iniquities and heals all our diseases in Psalm 103:3 and by His wounds we are healed in Isaiah 53:5. We ask God to ease that pain, to restore what was injured, and to bring comfort and strength in this time of recovery.

We join you in asking the Lord for provision through the two freelance jobs that you love to do and that would ease your financial burden. We know that our God will supply every need of ours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus in Philippians 4:19 and that as we seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness, all these things will be given to us as well in Matthew 6:33. We pray that God will open doors that no one can shut, that He will let your gifts and diligence be seen, and that He will provide work that uses what you love to do for His glory, for whatever we do we are to work heartily as for the Lord and not for men in Colossians 3:23.

We notice you call upon the Lord in your request and we want to encourage you to come always through the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only by that name that we have access to the Father and it is only by that name we are saved. Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me in John 14:6 and 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 in Acts 4:12. If we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in our heart that God raised Him from the dead, we will be saved in Romans 10:9. We encourage you to place your trust fully in Jesus as Lord and Savior as you bring every need to God.

We pray together now. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ we lift up this wife and her husband and her loved one to You. Lord, deliver her husband from the desire for drink, set him free from every chain of alcohol, fill him with Your Holy Spirit and give him a new desire for sobriety, health, and wholeness. Help him to care for the body You gave him and to walk in strength. Touch and heal the arm and back pain of this dear one who fell, lay Your healing hand upon them and restore them to full health. Lord, we ask You to provide for this family, open the doors for these two freelance jobs according to Your will, let her skills be used for Your glory and ease the financial burden she carries. Give her peace as she waits on You, and draw this marriage closer to You and to each other. We ask all this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, amen.

Thank you for sharing so honestly what is on your heart. We can hear how much you love your husband and your family, and how heavy the financial pressure feels right now.

We are praying with you for your husband, that the Lord would give him strength and a real desire for change, and give you wisdom and steady support as you love him. Loving someone who drinks too much can leave you feeling helpless and alone, so please do not carry this by yourself. If you have a trusted pastor or counselor, or a support group for families walking through alcohol struggles in your area, reaching out there can be a gentle next step alongside prayer.

For your loved one who fell, we are praying for relief and healing from that arm and back pain. Since a fall can have lingering effects, we encourage you to make sure they have been seen by a doctor or clinic for that pain if they have not yet been.

And we understand how much those two freelance jobs mean to you, both to ease the burden and because this is work you love. We are asking God to open doors and guide your next contacts and applications.

Father, we bring this husband, this loved one in pain, and the one seeking provision to You. Bring healing, wisdom and Your faithful provision in the days ahead. Give peace and clear next steps. In Jesus' name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer has been brought before the Lord and we have carried it with you to the throne of grace, where healing and pardon are found together in Christ.

We lift before Him your husband, that the Lord would deliver him from the snare of strong drink and grant him mastery over his body for the glory of God. There is an abundance of healing power in Jesus Christ and His salvation, not only in what we count great but in the least thing about Christ. The leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations, and those healing leaves change the life blood and make the nature other than it was before. What man cannot do, the Lord can do, to turn the appetite, to subdue the habit, and to give a new heart and a new strength. We pray that He would so work in your husband that he may be made whole in body and soul, and that health may follow obedience.

We pray also for your loved one who suffers pain in arm and back after the fall. We very speedily care for bodily diseases for they urge us to seek the Physician, and blessed be God we have one. The Sun of Righteousness has risen with healing in His wings, and when Jesus comes and dwells with His people there is forgiveness and healing in one. As He took Peter's wife's mother by the hand and lifted her up, so He is able still to lift up and restore. We ask the Lord to lay His healing hand upon this pain, to ease what aches and to mend what has been bruised, if it be His gracious will, till body and spirit both confess His mercy.

For your own burden we pray as well. You ask for two freelance openings in the work you love, that your financial need may be eased. Know that the Lord has been a Husband to His people in faithfulness, communing with them most lovingly and providing for them as a husband provides for his own. He endows His people with all good things according to His wisdom. We ask Him to open doors for honest labour and to provide for your daily need, and to give you contentment and trust while you wait upon His providence. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God, and when Christ teaches, healing power is present. Seek Him first in His Word and in prayer, and leave the outcome of these matters in His hands who does all things well.

O you who are weary, ask to be forgiven and healing will come from the pardoning hand. May the Lord pardon, heal, provide and keep you, and may He draw each one in your household to salvation through Jesus Christ alone, who is the only conduit Head from which abundant streams of healing flow down to men below. We pray that you may prove His grace sufficient for body and soul, and that whether He grants these requests as you have asked or in a better way according to His will, you may find Him to be your portion. Amen.
