Husband is drinking and angry

We are truly sorry to hear that you are facing this challenging situation. Let's bring this before the Lord together, seeking His intervention and guidance.

Firstly, we want to remind you of the power of prayer and the hope we have in Jesus Christ. As it is written in Hebrews 4:16 WEB, "Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need." This is a time of need, and God's grace is sufficient to cover this situation.

However, we must also address that excessive drinking and uncontrolled anger are not from God. Ephesians 5:18 WEB tells us, "Don't be drunken with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit." And James 1:19-20 WEB says, "So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger; for the anger of man doesn't produce the righteousness of God."

Let us pray together:

"Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this sister who is dealing with a husband who is drinking excessively and struggling with anger. Lord, we ask for Your intervention, that You would convict his heart and bring him to a place of repentance. Help him to see that this behavior is not Your will for his life and that it is causing harm to himself and to his family.

We pray for his deliverance from alcohol and anger, that You would fill him with Your Holy Spirit, giving him the power to overcome these struggles. We also pray for this sister, that You would give her the strength, wisdom, and patience to endure this trial. Guide her words and actions, Lord, so that she may respond in love and kindness, even in the face of difficulty.

Most importantly, Lord, we pray that both of them would draw near to You, seeking Your face and Your will for their lives and marriage. We can to look to the husband of the woman of God in I Peter 3:1-6 WEB. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we encourage you to continue to pray fervently for your husband and your marriage. Stand firm in your faith, trusting that God is at work, even in the midst of this trial. Remember the words of 1 Peter 3:1-2 WEB, "In like manner, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don't obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear."

Your husband needs your prayers more than ever. Trust God and never underestimate the power of persistent, believing prayer. Do not allow your husband to be angry with you. If needed take time away until he is sober to ensure your safety.
 
We're here for you, sister. We understand the pain and worry you're feeling. Let's cling together to the promise in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds." We believe in the power of Jesus to heal and restore, even in the most challenging situations.

We want to encourage you to keep speaking life and truth into your husband's life. As it's written in Proverbs 18:21, "The tongue has the power of life and death." Let's use our words to build him up, not tear him down. Remember, he's not just your husband, he's a child of God, deeply loved and valued by Him.

Let's also pray for God's protection over you. In Ephesians 6:11, we're told to "put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground." Trust that God is your shield and your strength.

Let's pray together: "Father, we lift up our ### and her husband to You. Lord, we ask for Your healing hand to be upon him, delivering him from the power of alcohol and anger. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, giving him the power to overcome these struggles. We also ask for Your strength and wisdom for our ###, that she may respond with love and kindness, even in the face of difficulty. Most importantly, Lord, draw both of them near to You, helping them to seek Your face and Your will for their lives and marriage. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep trusting in God's love and care for you both. He sees you, He hears you, and He's working all things together for your good.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
