Kindness of God softens heart Rom 2:4, Angelic Help Gen 19:16, Holy Spirit Work, Jn 16:8, Grace to Embody Christ's Love, Biblical Advice Bears Fruit… Father, in Your kindness, soften my matrimonial love (we committed to each other before You in the presence of many witnesses as You remember), me, and our families to repentance, the purpose which the kindness of God is intended, Rom 2:4. Steer her heart (and all our hearts) as You do kings' hearts like channels of water. Help her to come home and be willing to meet together with our pastors like we've promised, put everything on the table, James 5:15-16.

Do as You did for Lot in helping him to escape Sodom. You helped him out of indecision by literally seizing him by angels, Gen 19:16... Do as You did for the fisherman who You chose to lead the disciples -- he was proud and boasted, said he was better than all the others, and then denied you repeatedly --- but You didn't give up on him. You gave a similar experience to his first call to be a fisher of men, and then reinstated him three times with gracious humility and even expanded his tent to shepherding others, showing us how to evangelize in early Acts, and how to be a pastor in 1st and 2nd Peter… Thank You for not giving up on Peter…

You mercifully and powerfully confronted Saul on the way to Damascus to persecute your brethren, Acts 9:1-31. Later, after blinding him, letting him mess up, make tents and then giving him some private discipleship — “while they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, The Holy Spirit set Barnabas and him apart for the work to which I called them,” Acts 13:2-3. You made him the Paul we all know and love -- a light to all the people groups... A name change signifies a change in calling and identity -- Thank You for not giving up on Paul…

Don’t give up on the one I love and am so ready and willing to forgive... I truly believe You are MORE willing than I… Grant me strength, endurance, patience, understanding and the right words at the right times, like apples of gold in settings of silver, Ps 12:11, and may it always be from a right heart, mind and motive: Love from a purified heart, a sincere faith and a good conscience, 1 Tim 1:15.

It was while they were ministering to the Lord and fasting -- please help me hunger and thirst for righteousness in these situation, and help others share this burden with me for her, me, our child, the entire situation and all that’s transpired, good, bad and ugly, to be turned for glory, praise and honor, Isa 58:6-14.

The early church said, "fasting and giving lends wings to our prayers." Let that be shown to be true not only yesterday, but today and forever. Please work powerfully within me, humbling my soul with fasting, sanctifying residual pockets of darkness with light, helping the word become flesh, as John says, to love The LORD and my neighbor with ALL my heart, soul, mind, will, emotions, physical strength and finances -- my thoughts, words, deeds, actions and especially my reactions -- let the word be engrafted, James 1:22-23.

Loose angels to assist her return before group this week, Gen 19:16, Heb 1:14... Place and use the love of Jesus in me to publicly demonstrate true love of the gospel, Gal 3:1. Let me model it and teach it to myself, her, every family member, those near and dear and those far off and beyond to extended family, friends especially any who might consider me an enemy -- let me be a living ambassador Your love to be known and read by all people groups, everywhere, 2 Cor 3:2, “What to say and how to say it,” John 12:49.

Do not take us out of the world, but keep us from the evil one, John 17:15. Sanctify us by the truth; Your word is truth, John 17:17. Let the Word of Christ be engrafted, James 1:22-23, that we may be effective doers. Keep her, them and us from evil people, 2 Thes 3:2, temptation, Matt 6:13, sin Zeph 3:13 and the evil one, Matt 6:13. Thank you for the angels in advance -- they're real and really do get sent ahead, Heb 13, and thank You in advance for the fact "You like to make their faces change," in Jesus' Name.

"I don’t speak on My own authority. The Father who sent Me has commanded me what to say and how to say it," John 12:49 [1]. May I speak truth the right way (in love, humility and kindness) at the right time (when one isn't tired or in the right place to receive it), Prov 25:11, Thank You and you all in Jesus' Name.

We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up this sacred matrimony before the Lord. Your words reveal a deep love and a fervent desire to see restoration, repentance, and God’s kindness at work in this marriage. We stand with you, believing that the Lord is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us (Ephesians 3:20).

The kindness of God is indeed intended to lead us to repentance, as Romans 2:4 declares: *"Or do you despise the riches of his goodness, forbearance, and patience, not knowing that the goodness of God leads you to repentance?"* We pray that this truth would take root in every heart involved—yours, your spouse’s, and your families. May the Holy Spirit convict, comfort, and draw each one to a place of humility and surrender before the Lord. The Lord steers the hearts of kings like channels of water (Proverbs 21:1), and we trust He will do the same here, guiding every heart toward His perfect will.

We are encouraged by your reliance on Scripture and your willingness to seek the Lord through fasting, prayer, and worship. The early church understood that fasting and prayer lend wings to our petitions, and we join you in this spiritual discipline, believing that the Lord will hear and answer. As Isaiah 58:6-9 reminds us, the fast God chooses is one that loosens the bonds of wickedness, undoes the straps of the yoke, and lets the oppressed go free. May this season of seeking the Lord break every chain and bring healing to this marriage.

We rebuke any spirit of division, hardness of heart, or unforgiveness that may be at work. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We declare that this marriage is under the protection of the blood of Jesus, and we stand against every scheme of the evil one. We pray for angelic assistance, as in Genesis 19:16, where the angels seized Lot and his family to lead them to safety. May the Lord dispatch His angels to minister to your spouse, drawing her back to the covenant you both made before God and witnesses. Hebrews 1:14 assures us that angels are ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation, and we believe they are at work even now.

We also lift up your own heart, asking the Lord to fill you with His peace, patience, and wisdom. The example of Peter, who denied Christ yet was restored and used mightily, reminds us that the Lord does not give up on His children. Like Peter, you may feel tested, but we pray that the Lord would reinstate you in strength and purpose, using this trial to refine your faith and deepen your reliance on Him. As you wait, may your words be like apples of gold in settings of silver (Proverbs 25:11), seasoned with grace and truth.

We must address the sacredness of marriage as defined in Scripture—a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, established by God for His glory (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). Any separation or division in marriage is not part of God’s design, and we pray for complete restoration and reconciliation in accordance with His will. If there has been any sin—whether unfaithfulness, bitterness, or hardness of heart—we pray for genuine repentance and forgiveness, as James 5:16 instructs: *"Confess your offenses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed."*

We also emphasize the importance of the name of Jesus in all our prayers. It is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6), and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, knowing that He intercedes for us at the right hand of the Father (Romans 8:34).

Father, we ask You to sanctify this marriage by Your truth. Your word is truth (John 17:17), and we pray that it would take root in both hearts, transforming minds and renewing spirits. May the Word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom (Colossians 3:16). We pray for unity, love, and a shared commitment to honor You in this covenant. Let the love of Christ compel you both to forgive, to serve, and to seek reconciliation with humility and grace.

We declare that no weapon formed against this marriage will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we stand in agreement with you for a testimony of Your faithfulness. May this trial be turned into a triumph for Your glory, and may your marriage become a beacon of hope to others who are struggling. We pray for wisdom for your pastors as they counsel and guide you, and we ask that the Lord would prepare hearts to receive His truth.

Lord, we thank You for Your unfailing love and Your promise to never leave nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). We trust You to complete the good work You have begun in this marriage (Philippians 1:6). May Your Holy Spirit continue to work powerfully, convicting, comforting, and drawing each heart closer to You. We pray for a hunger and thirst for righteousness (Matthew 5:6) that can only be satisfied in You. May this season of fasting and prayer bear fruit that remains, bringing glory to Your name.

We bless you with strength, endurance, and the assurance that the Lord is fighting for you. May you walk in the fullness of His love, and may your marriage be a living testimony of His grace and power. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Dear Friend,

May the Word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom (Colossians 3:16). Let the love of Christ compel you to forgive, to serve, and to seek reconciliation with humility and grace.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
