We join with you in this prayer and we thank God for your heart that desires His glory above all and His mercy and transforming work in the life of your still current wife and in all those who have heard the Word, especially in these last months, and in your family lines, your patriarchal and matriarchal figures, your progeny and posterity.
We agree that salvation belongs to the Lord, Jonah 2:9, Ps 3:8, and that salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, Rev 7:10. We give thanks that it is God who gives the growth, 1 Cor 3:6-7. We may plant and water, but only God makes the seed spring up and bear fruit, Mark 4:26-29, and the seed is the Word of God, Mark 4:14. We take comfort that Your Word will not return void but will accomplish that which You please and prosper in the thing You sent it to do, Isa 55:10-11, and that the Word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart, Heb 4:12.
We praise You for Your kindness that leads to repentance, Rom 2:4, and for Your perfect patience, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance, 2 Pet 3:9, for You desire all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth, 1 Tim 2:4. We thank You that You are always working, John 5:17, convicting the world concerning sin, and concerning righteousness, and concerning judgment through the Holy Spirit, John 16:8, and that godly sorrow works repentance to salvation, 2 Cor 7:10.
We lift up this marriage covenant before You, for we believe marriage is Your holy institution, a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, and what God has joined together, let no man separate, Mark 10:9, Gen 2:24. We strongly endorse Your design for marriage and we pray for restoration and healing where there has been breaking and wandering. Your Word says marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed undefiled, Heb 13:4, and that husbands and wives are to remain faithful to the covenant, Mal 2:16, 1 Cor 7:10-11. Where there has been hardness of heart, unfaithfulness, or departure, as with Hosea's wife whom You hedged in that she might return, Hos 2:6-7, or the prodigal who came to himself, Luke 15:17, we ask for that same humbling work that You did in Nebuchadnezzar, that he lifted his eyes to heaven and his understanding returned to him, Dan 4:34, Dan 4:37, for before honor is humility, Prov 18:12. We pray that any who are taken captive by the devil may come to their senses and escape his snare, having been taken captive to do his will, 2 Tim 2:26, and that they may receive the love of the truth that they may be saved, 2 Thes 2:10.
Father, we ask that You continue the good work You have begun and will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ, Phil 1:6. We ask that You order the steps of those who bear Your Word, Ps 37:23, just as You directed Philip to the Ethiopian reading Isaiah, Acts 8:26-31, and Ananias to Saul, Acts 9:10-11, and Paul and his companions through visions and hinderings, Acts 16:6-10, so bring faithful laborers across the path of this dear wife and across the paths of all who have heard, to water what has been planted, to speak truth in love, and to show the kindness that leads to repentance. Restrain evil, deception, lies, temptation and the evil one, and keep us all, our progeny, our families, our ministry partners and fellow servants of Christ and stewards of the mysteries of God, 1 Cor 4:1-2.
We thank You in advance, believing that whatever we ask in prayer, believing, we will receive, Mark 11:24, for You are a rewarder of those who diligently seek You, Heb 11:6, and the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much, James 5:16. Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your name give glory, for Your loving kindness and for Your truth's sake, Ps 115:1, for of You, and through You, and to You, are all things, to You be the glory forever, Rom 11:36. Call to You and You will answer and show us great and mighty things which we do not know, Jer 33:3, and You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, Eph 3:20.
We pray You would guard this husband's heart to remain faithful, patient, pure, and hopeful, not seeking to manipulate but to walk in love, to pray without ceasing, 1 Thes 5:17, and to entrust his wife and his marriage entirely to You, doing all in the name of the Lord Jesus, Col 3:17, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12, and whatever we ask in the name of Jesus, He will do that the Father may be glorified in the Son, John 14:13-14. All the promises of God in Him are Yes and Amen to the glory of God, 2 Cor 1:20.
Father, we give You thanks for all You are doing, seen and unseen, and we trust You to carry this work to completion for Your glory. We ask all this in the mighty and merciful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of God's creation, Rev 3:14.

Father, we thank You that Your Word does not return void, but like the rain and snow come down from heaven to water the earth and make it vivacious, so is the Word effective in fulfilling the purposes You have ordained for it to accomplish, Isa 55:10-11. Thank You the seed is the Word of God, and that seeds have been planted, Mark 4:14, Mark 4:26, Mark 4:27, Mark 4:28, Mark 4:29. From You and through You and back to You be all glory, Rom 11:36. Please continue working on this "still current wife's heart" by bringing fresh truth, restraining evil and carrying any work You've begun on to completion until the day of Christ, Phil 1:6. CONTINUE to bring others into her path to water seeds, speak truth and show the kindness of God, Rom 2:4, and across the paths of all who have heard the word from all time, especially the last several months, especially for our patriarchal and matriarchal figures, progeny and posterity. Since the steps of the righteous are ordered by You, Ps 37:23, as evidenced by the evangelist and the foreign official reading Isaiah 53 in Acts 8:26-31, the believer in Acts 9:10-11 who was told to go find the future Apostle to the Gentiles, and the Apostles directed to go help a certain man, Acts 16:6-10. You, being perfect AND patient, not willing any perish but rather that all come to repentance, 2 Pet 3:9, and desire all to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, even using prayer to that ends, 1 Tim 2:1-4.
