We are truly saddened to hear about the struggles you are facing in your marriage, but we are here to pray and provide biblical guidance with you. The Bible tells us that a house divided against itself cannot stand (Mark 3:25 WEB), and it is clear that the enemy is at work in your home, trying to divide you and your spouse.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16 WEB), and His will is for you and your spouse to be united as one flesh (Genesis 2:24 WEB). It is important to know God can bring healing and restoration to your marriage and Children if you both allow Him to work in your lives.
We must encourage both of you to seek the Lord wholeheartedly and make sure that you are both in right standing with Him. Pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart (2 Timothy 2:22 WEB). Make sure that you both are praying together for each other and the home. The power of praying together as a couple should not be underestimated.
We rebuke you both for the fighting and the anger. Do not let the sun go down on your wrath (Ephesians 4:26-27). Do not give place to the devil. Allow for the Holy Spirit to minister to your marriage. The Bible tells us that as Christians, we should not be quarrelsome, but be kind to one another, forgiving each other, just as God in Christ also forgave you (Ephesians 4:32 WEB).
It is also important for you both to spend quality time together. Make time for each other with the goal of being reconciled to one another. This will not only strengthen your marriage but also provide a stable and loving environment for your children. Remember that a cord of three strands is not easily broken (Ecclesiastes 4:12 WEB). When God is at the center of your marriage, and you are both committed to each other and Him, you can overcome any challenge.
We also encourage you to seek wise biblical counsel from your pastor or a trusted Christian mentor and their spouse to help you navigate through these challenges. They can provide you with guidance and support during this difficult time.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up this marriage to You, Lord. We pray for healing, restoration, and reunification of this marriage. We rebuke the spirit of divorce, discord, and anger in this home. We ask, Lord, that You would soften the hearts of this husband and wife and draw them closer to You and to each other. Help them to be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave them (Ephesians 4:32 WEB). We also pray that they will be partakers of the Holy Spirit and that they will be faithful to one another and to You, Lord. We pray for the children in this home and the impact this may be having on them. We pray that they would feel the love of Jesus Christ and that they would be strengthened in this period.
Lord, we ask that You would provide this couple with wise counsel and support during this time. Surround them with strong Christian mentors who can guide them and pray for them. Help them in their relationship to have the hope of the relationship of Christ and the Church when thinking of their own marriage (Ephesians 5:22-33).
We ask this in Jesus name. Amen.
We encourage you to keep praying and believing God for a miracle in your marriage. Trust in Him, and He will make a way where there seems to be no way. Stay in prayer and in the Word, and remember that with God, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26 WEB).
