We understand that you are going through a challenging time and seeking restoration in your marriage, your husband's salvation, and a change in his employment situation. Let's address these concerns together in prayer and through biblical principles.
Firstly, we must emphasize that God desires marriages to be strong and godly. As it is written in Ephesians 5:22-33 WEB, wives are to be subject to their own husbands, as to the Lord, and husbands are to love their wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it. This is a high calling for both husbands and wives, and it is only through the power of the Holy Spirit that we can live up to these standards. Let's pray for your husband to turn to God and for your marriage to be restored according to God's will.
Dear Lord, we come before You, lifting up this sister in Christ and her marriage. We pray for restoration and healing in their relationship. We ask that You soften her husband's heart and draw him to Yourself, granting him the gift of salvation. We pray that any barriers to their marital unity would be broken down and that their marriage would be a beacon of Your love and grace.
Concerning his employment, we must be mindful of the biblical principles of work and provision. As it is written in 2 Thessalonians 3:10 WEB, "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: 'If anyone is not willing to work, neither let him eat.'" Work is a blessing from God, and it is through honest work that we provide for ourselves and our families.
However, we understand your concern about the environment in which your husband is working. We pray that God would either change the environment of his current workplace or provide him with a new opportunity that is filled with godly influences. As it is written in Proverbs 16:3 WEB, "Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall be established."
We must also address that it is important to pray in the name of Jesus Christ. As it is written in John 14:6 WEB, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we can be saved.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your will to be done in this sister's life and in the life of her husband. We pray for his salvation, that he would turn to You and accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. We pray for their marriage, that it would be restored and strengthened according to Your will. We pray for his employment situation, that You would provide him with a job that is filled with godly influences and allows him to provide for his family. We ask all these things in Jesus' name. Amen.
