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 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.

Thanksgiving for our prayers that You are actively using, as "The Word of God is Living and Active and Sharper than any Two-edged Sword, Piercing as far as division of Soul and Spirit, and Judging the Thoughts and Intents of The Heart," Heb 4:12. "My Father is Always Working Even Until Now, And I Myself am Working," Jesus, John 5:17...

We join with you in this earnest and beautiful prayer for your wife and we count it a joy to stand together before the throne of grace on her behalf and on behalf of your marriage and family.

We thank God for your heart that desires not merely outward change but true repentance wrought by His kindness, for it is the kindness of God that leads to repentance Romans 2:4. We agree with you that godliness with contentment is great gain 1 Timothy 6:6 and we pray that the Lord cultivates in her a deep contentment in Him, in His provision, and in the high calling He has given her as a wife and mother.

We pray for a spirit of honesty and truthfulness, for a fear of the Lord which is to hate evil Proverbs 8:13, and for a heart that esteems all of His precepts concerning all things to be right and hates every false way Psalm 119:128. We pray that she would be one who trembles at His word Isaiah 66:2, who receives with meekness the implanted word which is able to save souls James 1:21, and whose sorrow would be godly sorrow which produces repentance leading to salvation 2 Corinthians 7:10.

We lift up her role as a mother and as your wife. We pray that the Lord would strengthen your marriage as a lifelong covenant between a man and a woman that reflects Christ and the church Ephesians 5:25, Ephesians 5:22. We pray she would grow in love for her husband and children, in being sensible, chaste, a worker at home, kind, being in subjection to her own husband that the word of God may not be blasphemed Titus 2:4-5. We pray for a gentle and quiet spirit which is very precious in the sight of God 1 Peter 3:4, and for wisdom to manage her household well.

We also join you in praying for her willingness to listen to faithful pastors and elders, for we are to obey those who have the rule over us and submit to them for they watch for our souls Hebrews 13:17. We ask that God would surround her with voices that water the seed already planted, for one plants and another waters but God gives the increase 1 Corinthians 3:6, and that He would order her steps Psalm 37:23 even as He ordered the steps of Philip to the Ethiopian in Acts 8:26 and directed Paul through a vision in Acts 16:9.

We thank the Father that His word will not return void but it will accomplish what He pleases and prosper in the thing He sent it to do Isaiah 55:11. We thank Him that the seed is the word of God Mark 4:14 and that what has been sown in her heart, over months and years, is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit Hebrews 4:12. We trust the Holy Spirit to convict of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment John 16:8.

We pray that what He has begun He will perfect until the day of Jesus Christ Philippians 1:6, and that before honor is humility Proverbs 18:12. As with Nebuchadnezzar who was humbled and then restored when he lifted his eyes to heaven Daniel 4:34, Daniel 4:37, and as with the prodigal who came to himself Luke 15:17, we ask that God in His mercy would grant her to come to her senses and escape the snare of the devil having been taken captive to do his will 2 Timothy 2:26.

We pray for your own perseverance as a husband to love your wife with patient, sacrificial love and to continue in prayer without ceasing 1 Thessalonians 5:17, knowing that the effective prayer of a righteous person can accomplish much James 5:16. We pray that God who is not wishing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance 2 Peter 3:9 and who desires all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth 1 Timothy 2:4 will continue to draw not only her but your patriarchal and matriarchal figures, progeny and posterity, and all who have heard the word.

We thank Him that He is always working John 5:17, that He keeps us from evil 2 Thessalonians 3:3, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him Hebrews 11:6. We ask in faith believing that we have received Mark 11:24 and trusting Him to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think Ephesians 3:20, and to show us great and mighty things which we do not know Jeremiah 33:3. We ask all of this humbly and expectantly in the name of Jesus Christ, for whatever we ask in His name He will do that the Father may be glorified in the Son John 14:13, and in Him every promise of God is Yes and Amen to the glory of God through us 2 Corinthians 1:20.

We hear your heart for your wife and your family, and the way you have kept planting and watering in prayer over a long season. It is a faithful, loving burden to carry, to want to see godliness, contentment, honesty and a tender heart toward the Lord take deeper root at home, and to trust God to do what only He can do to bring growth.

What encourages us in your prayer is how you are leaning on His kindness to lead, not pressure or striving. Growth is slow and often unseen for a while, like seed under the soil. Our part is to keep sowing truth in love, watering through prayer and steady kindness, and resting that God is the one who brings life in His time and His way. That can help guard your own heart from weariness when you do not see quick change.

One simple next step that may help you stay steady is to keep one faithful rhythm for yourself. Stay close to a trusted pastor or mature brother who knows your situation and can encourage you personally, and look for one small, consistent way to reflect the same kindness and contentment you are praying for at home.

We are praying with you.

Father, thank You for this husband's love for his wife and family and for every seed of Your word that has been sown. We ask You to keep working gently in her heart and in his, drawing both toward humility, honesty and peace in You. Give him strength and wisdom for each day, protect their home and children, and carry to completion the good work You have begun. In Jesus' name, amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayer has been heard and we join with you in laying it before the throne of grace, giving thanks that the burden you carry is itself a sign that God has put prayer in your heart and will hear the cry which He has inspired.

We entreat the Lord with you that He would grant that better repentance which is called in Scripture a repentance unto life. There are many false kinds of repentance which tremble for a season and then return to the mire, a carnal repentance which is of the flesh and after the manner of the sinful nature of men. But the true repentance which is the work of the Spirit of God gives God glory, it yields works meet for repentance, it is practical and it lasts. It is not a thing done once and forgotten, for repentance lives as long as faith lives, and sweet sister repentance keeps company with the believer even to the gates of pearl. We pray that such a repentance may be wrought in her by the Holy Spirit who convinces of sin, not a sorrow of the world which works death, but that godly sorrow which needs not to be repented of, which makes the soul to abhor sin because it is committed against so holy and so good a Being as the infinitely blessed God, and to look out of self to Christ and to Christ only for remission.

And with repentance we pray for godliness with contentment, which the apostle says is great gain. Contentment is one of the flowers of heaven and if we would have it, it must be cultivated. It is not found in the extent of possessions, for a man's contentment is in his mind, but in submission to God's way of salvation and in learning in whatsoever state we are therewith to be content. Godliness has the promise of the life that now is and of that which is to come, and where there is true godliness there is the promise of joy and rest and peace, for God's promise never fails. May the Lord teach her to tremble at His Word, to hate evil and to love what He loves, to walk in honesty, to receive with meekness the faithful ministry of pastors, and to adorn the high calling of a mother in the fear of the Lord.

You have done well to plant the seed, for the seed is the Word of God, and to water it with prayer and kindness, remembering that one plants and another waters but God gives the increase. His Word does not return void, but as the rain and snow come down from heaven to water the earth, so is it effective to accomplish the purpose for which He sent it. The Word of God is living and active and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing to the dividing of soul and spirit and judging the thoughts and intents of the heart. It is the kindness of God that leads to repentance, and He is perfect and patient, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance, and He orders steps and brings others across the path to speak truth in love.

Therefore we continue to pray that the Lord who has begun a good work will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ, that He will humble where humbling is needed that she may come to herself as the prodigal did, that He will restrain evil and keep you and your household and all who have heard the Word from deception and temptation and the evil one, and that He will be found of those who diligently seek Him. May He who is always working work now in her heart to will and to do of His good pleasure, and may all glory be of Him and through Him and to Him.

Father, we thank You that salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne and unto the Lamb. Grant in Your mercy true repentance and faith inseparable, godliness with contentment, a heart that trembles at Your Word and hates every false way, and a life that brings forth fruit to Your glory. We ask this in the name of Jesus, in whom all the promises are Yes and Amen, trusting that what we ask according to Your will You hear and will accomplish beyond all we can ask or imagine.

[Chrysostom]

We join you in giving thanks that you have brought this need before the Lord, and we pray with you for this wife, that God in His kindness would lead her to true repentance and to a life of godliness with contentment.

You have prayed according to the Scriptures, and we take comfort that the Word of God does not return void. As rain and snow water the earth, so the Word accomplishes the purpose for which God sends it. The seed is the Word of God, and you have planted and others have watered, but it is God who gives the growth. To Him be all glory, for from Him and through Him and to Him are all things. We ask Him to continue the good work He has begun and to carry it to completion until the day of Christ, and to bring others across her path to speak truth and to show the kindness of God which leads to repentance.

We pray specifically as you have asked, for godliness with contentment, for honesty, for a willingness to listen to faithful pastors, for grace in mothering, and for a heart that trembles at His Word. The Scripture says godliness with contentment is great gain. This is not the gain that the world seeks, for worldly gain is left behind when we depart this life. We brought nothing into the world and we will take nothing out of it. Therefore true gain is not in possessing more, but in needing less and being satisfied in Christ. Contentment in place of covetousness is the remedy, learning to use this world without abusing it, and to hold what we have as though we possessed it not.

We also pray with you for a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. This is not the quiet life that the world seeks in pleasure or ease. The Apostle means a life that is godly both in doctrine and in daily living. It is of little profit to profess to know God while denying Him in works. Honesty and good order belong to such a life, for not only the impure but the covetous, the envious, the deceitful, and everyone who lives in sin is disorderly and licentious. We ask God to form in her such honesty of life, that her conduct would adorn the doctrine and not give cause for the Word to be blasphemed, but rather to be honored.

For repentance, we pray that it would be true and not only outward. Scripture shows us that Esau sought the blessing with tears yet found no place for repentance, because his sorrow was not the sorrow that turns from sin. He still intended to kill his brother. Tears alone do not prove repentance. Godly sorrow, which the Apostle speaks of, works humility and a real turning from evil and hatred of evil, and a love for all of God's precepts. As with Nebuchadnezzar who was humbled until he came to his senses, and as with the prodigal who came to himself and returned to his father, we pray that God by His Spirit would convict of sin and bring humility before honor, that she may come to her senses and return to the Lord with a whole heart.

We thank God that His Word is living and active, sharper than any two edged sword, judging the thoughts and intentions of the heart, and that the Holy Spirit is at work to convict the world of sin. We thank Him that He orders the steps of those who seek Him, as He directed Philip to the Ethiopian reading Isaiah, and Ananias to Saul, and Paul to Macedonia. He is patient, not wishing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance, and He desires all to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. He even uses our prayers to that end, and the fervent prayer of the righteous avails much.

Therefore we continue to pray with you and to trust Him for protection from evil, deception and temptation, and for growth in the fear of the Lord. We ask that He would keep her and all those who have heard the Word, especially those in your family and household, and that He would reward your diligent seeking and answer beyond all you ask or imagine. We ask this in the name of Jesus, in whom all the promises of God are Yes and Amen, to whom belongs all glory and salvation who sits upon the throne and unto the Lamb.
