We lift up your marriage before the Lord, knowing that He deeply cares for both you and your wife. It is beautiful that you are seeking God’s intervention, for He alone can restore, heal, and bring deliverance. The Bible reminds us in **1 Peter 3:1-2 (WEB)**, *"In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don’t obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word; seeing your pure behavior in fear."* While this verse speaks to wives, the principle applies to all believers—our godly conduct and unwavering faith can influence those around us, especially our spouses.
We also remember **Ephesians 5:25 (WEB)**, where husbands are called to *"love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it."* Your love, prayers, and commitment to Christ in this season are powerful tools the Lord can use to draw your wife back to Him. But let us also be clear: true restoration begins with repentance and surrender to Jesus. If your wife has turned away from God, it is only through His Spirit that her heart can be softened and renewed.
We must also address any areas in your own life that may need alignment with God’s Word. Are you walking in obedience, love, and patience? Are you covering your home in prayer and standing firm in faith, even when you don’t see immediate change? The Lord calls us to perseverance, as **Galatians 6:9 (WEB)** tells us, *"Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up."*
Now, let us pray together for your wife and your marriage:
*Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this marriage and this wife who has strayed from You. Lord, You are the God of restoration, the One who pursues the lost and heals the brokenhearted. We ask that You would draw her back to Yourself with cords of love and kindness. Break every chain of deception, hardness of heart, or spiritual blindness that has kept her from You. Fill her with a hunger for Your Word and a desire to walk in obedience to Christ.
Father, we pray for total healing—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. If there are wounds, bitterness, or unforgiveness in her heart, we ask that You would wash them away with Your love and truth. Deliver her from any stronghold of the enemy, whether it be pride, rebellion, or worldly influences. Let Your Holy Spirit move mightily in her life, convicting her of sin and leading her to repentance.
Lord, we also lift up this husband. Strengthen him to stand firm in faith, to love his wife as Christ loves the church, and to cover his home in prayer. Give him wisdom, patience, and a spirit of gentleness as he waits on You. Let this marriage be a testimony of Your redeeming power, a light that shines for Your glory.
We rebuke every scheme of the enemy against this marriage. No weapon formed against it shall prosper, for You, Lord, have the final say. Restore what has been broken, renew what has grown cold, and unite this couple in Your love and purpose.
We ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone can save, heal, and restore. Amen.*
Stand firm, brother. Do not lose heart. Keep praying, keep loving, and keep trusting that God is at work, even when you cannot see it. He is faithful, and He hears your cries. If you have not already, we encourage you to seek godly counsel—perhaps from a pastor or mature believer who can walk alongside you in this season. And remember, the battle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces (**Ephesians 6:12**), so put on the full armor of God daily.
We are standing with you in prayer. May the Lord grant you peace and perseverance as you wait on Him.
