Please pray for me to find inner peace in the midst

[ElaineMar]

Please pray for me to find inner peace in the midst of problems and challenges that I am currently facing in my life now. I ask God to keep faith;hope and believe in me because I realise that the battle that I am faced with is going to last longer than I had anticipated. In fact it seems the battle lines have just been drawn. I live with my husband in the same house but my mother in law who is many miles away is the one holding the remote control; controlling his every move and ensuring that there is no peace and harmony in our marriage; ensuring that he keeps behaving badly and remains an addict to his alcohol and cigarettes because he needs to be like his father. I am asking God to help me hold my head up high and never allow me to be sad and unhappy. Let depression never be my portion no matter what my husband's family throws my way. I want to rebuild my life and refocus my energies on other pisitive things that do not bring grief in my life. I had many plans for my life before I got married and my husband and his family have been stopping things from flowing freely into my life but it stops today and now. My life is not in their hands;I am taking it back from their grasp and releasing myself from their bondage;chords and evil manipulations. As for my husband I will continue to pray for him that his life is removed from his mother's hands and that it's placed under God's control. I will stop arguing;I will stop shouting;I will not nag;I will not say another word about his behaviour. I will keep quiet;keep my peace and retain my sanity. This battle is not mine. I am removing it from my shoulders;I am releasing it and giving it to God Almighty in heaven. I know God has a purpose for my life and I have to fulfill that purpose and do what He called me out to do in earth. I know that He doesn't want me to struggle and I will not be a slave to intentional sabotage in my life. I know that God will change my financial situation;He will give me the job promotion that I am asking for;He remove and cancel debt in my life so that I am not dependent on a man who is allowing his mother to destroy this marriage. I know that through God I have the power to rise out of these ashes and dawn into a new era of blessings;favour;grace;mercy;promotion;progress;prosperity and wealth in my life. I am a conquered and I will conquer in my life through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Failure will not be my portion. All those who want to destroy me are going to be shocked and they will be in such amazement that they will turn from their evil ways and follow the God that I serve. Lord please give me strength. In Jesus's name I pray. Amen

Holy God and loving Father, I consciously place my fears, worries, anxieties, and burdens in your hands. I know that I have so little power to change the outcome of these events and I trust that you will work what is pleasing to you, and best for me, out of these situations. Forgive me for my anxious thoughts and for letting my own worry become an idol that robs you of my full trust. Strengthen and empower me to trust you more by the power and presence of your Spirit. In Jesus' name I pray.

I am praying with you!   Never Give up your FAITH!  God is listening & will answer in his timing.  Amen

I’m sorry about your situation, Elaine. I can understand how challenging it must be to have to deal with your husband’s unhealthy attachment to his mother, and his addictions. I would suggest that you seek the help of a Christian counselor. Please know that I’ll be praying for you. May the Lord give you His strength and patience as you look to Him for guidance during this difficult time. Stay strong, okay?
