We are glad to hear that you have repented of your sins and are seeking God's help for your marriage. Remember, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." (1 John 1:9 WEB)
However, repentance is not just about feeling sorry; it's about turning away from sin and making a conscious effort to live righteously. Therefore, it's crucial to actively work on rebuilding trust, being transparent, and fleeing from temptations. As the Bible says, "Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body." (1 Corinthians 6:18) and also "Let him who stole steal no more; but rather let him labor, working with his hands the thing that is good, that he may have something to give to him who has need." (Ephesians 4:28)
Praying together is essential. From the Bible, "Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The insistent prayer of a righteous person is powerfully effective." (James 5:16)
Be assured that God wants your marriage to thrive. Remember, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled; for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous." (Hebrews 13:4)
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this marriage. We thank You for the gift of repentance and forgiveness. Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention. Protect this marriage from any attacks of the enemy. Help this husband to walk in integrity, transparency, and faithfulness. Bless his efforts to rebuild trust and restore his marriage. Give his wife a spirit of forgiveness and discernment. Help them to draw closer to You and to each other. Guide them as they navigate through this healing process. May Your will be done, and may You receive all the glory.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
