I'm not sure what to do next.....
 
We hear the deep ache and weariness in your heart as you have carried this heavy suspicion for so many years in your marriage, and we join with you now to seek the Lord together in Jesus' name.

We know how painful it is to love your husband, to worship beside him every Sunday, to hear him swear to God that he is faithful, and yet to feel in your spirit that something hidden remains. God sees this burden you have carried and He cares deeply for you, for He is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit Psalm 34:18. We want you to know that your years of prayer have not been wasted, for the Lord hears and He will answer according to His perfect wisdom and timing.

Scripture is very clear about the sanctity of marriage. Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled, but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers Hebrews 13:4. You shall not commit adultery Exodus 20:14. If your husband has been unfaithful throughout your marriage while professing faith and going to church, that is grave sin before God, and to swear falsely by God's name adds to that sin, for you shall not take the name of Yahweh your God in vain Exodus 20:7. To believe that God will not expose sin is a deception, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known Luke 12:2, and no creature is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account Hebrews 4:13. Be sure your sin will find you out Numbers 32:23. Even if a husband can hide unfaithfulness from his wife and from his church for a time, he cannot hide it from the Lord, who sees in secret and who calls all to repentance.

At the same time we must speak with care about suspicion that has lived for years without clear confirmation. Suspicion alone can wear down love and trust, and we encourage you not to let it harden into bitterness or constant accusation, but to seek truth in love and in wisdom. We encourage you to seek godly counsel quickly, not to walk this road alone. Share this burden with a mature, Bible believing pastor or elder couple and with a wise Christian counselor who honors marriage. The Lord promises if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him James 1:5. Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight Proverbs 3:5-6.

What to do next we believe should be done in a biblical, orderly way. Continue to pray for truth to come to light and for your husband's heart to be convicted if he is in sin. In love, speak directly with him again, not in anger or endless questioning, but calmly sharing what you have observed and how it has wounded you, giving him opportunity to tell the truth Matthew 18:15. If he continues to deny and you still have reason for concern, involve your pastor or church leadership for help and accountability, for the church is given to help restore and to deal with hidden sin Matthew 18:16-17. Guard your own heart from sin in this trial, and do not seek to repay evil or to take matters into your own hands in ways that dishonor God. Husbands are commanded to love their wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it Ephesians 5:25, and to live with their wives with understanding 1 Peter 3:7. What therefore God has joined together, do not let man tear apart Matthew 19:6. God hates the breaking of the covenant of marriage, yet He does permit separation when sexual immorality has broken that covenant Matthew 19:9, so we do not encourage a hasty decision toward divorce, but we do encourage you to pursue truth, repentance, and if sin is confessed, to seek godly reconciliation and rebuilding through repentance, forgiveness, and counseling. If there is ongoing deception and unrepentance, you will need the covering and guidance of your church to determine right steps and to protect your heart and home.

We also want to gently address that your request spoke of praying to God and going to church, but did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. We come to the Father only through Jesus, for Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me John 14:6. There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved Acts 4:12. It is only by putting our faith in Jesus Christ, believing that He died for our sins and rose again, and confessing Him as Lord, that we have forgiveness and access to God Romans 10:9. We encourage you and your husband to examine whether your faith is truly in Christ alone, not merely in church attendance, for outward religion without a transformed heart cannot save and cannot keep a person from sin.

We pray together for you now.

Father in heaven, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, and we lift up this dear sister who has carried years of sorrow and suspicion in her marriage. Lord, You see every tear, You know every prayer she has prayed, and You know the truth that is hidden. We ask that You bring what is hidden into the light in Your perfect way and time, that truth may be known and that sin may be exposed so it can be repented of Luke 8:17. If her husband has committed adultery and has lied while taking Your name in vain, we pray that Your Holy Spirit would convict him deeply, that he would no longer harden his heart, but would confess and forsake his sin and find mercy Proverbs 28:13. Bring him to true repentance and to a genuine walk with Christ, not just outward church attendance. Lord, give this wife wisdom, discernment, peace, and strength. Guard her from fear, bitterness, and despair, and surround her with wise, biblical counsel and support. Heal the wounds in this marriage if it be Your will, or make clear the path You would have her walk, and let Your will be done. Restore trust where it has been broken, or give clarity where deception remains. We ask that You would be her refuge and strength, and that she would feel Your presence and know that You will never leave her nor forsake her. We pray all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, amen.

We encourage you to stay rooted in the Word daily, to keep praying without ceasing, and to take the next step of inviting a trusted pastor into this situation to walk with you both. God is faithful, He loves marriage, and He desires truth in the innermost being Psalm 51:6. We are standing with you, asking God to bring light, healing, and His perfect will to your home.
 
We have been sitting with your request and the weight you have carried for so long. To hold a deep suspicion for ### years, to keep praying, to sit beside your husband in church every Sunday while he insists he has been faithful, would leave anyone weary and unsure what to do next. It makes sense that you feel torn and tired.

Living with unanswered questions for that long wears on trust and on your own sense of peace. Trying to sort it out alone, going over the same thoughts and looking for proof, often keeps the hurt close without bringing clarity. You do not have to carry this by yourself.

One steady next step that helps many in this place is to bring one safe, wise person into the picture with you. That could be a trusted pastor or a mature Christian counselor you can meet with privately at first, someone who will listen without rushing you to a decision and help you think through what is wise, what is true, and what boundaries will protect your heart and your marriage. It can help to quietly write down what you have noticed and when, so you have a clearer picture to share when you talk, rather than holding it all in your mind.

We are praying for you for wisdom, for rest, and for truth to be handled with care.

Father, we lift ### to You. You see these ### years, the prayers she has prayed, and the confusion she feels today. Give her wisdom for each next step, surround her with trustworthy counsel, and guard her heart with Your peace. Lead her and her husband toward what is honest and healing. In Jesus' name, amen.
 
Lord Jesus please richly bless, protect and guide them. Please help them in accordance with your perfect will Father. Thank you and praise you. In your holy name I pray. Amen.
 
May God in Jesus' name answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God is so in love with you. Be Encouraged!

Heal Me Lord Jesus Spirit, Soul, And Body
 
I don't think he is cheating on you, I do have some verses that I know I needed to share!

Matthew 17:20 - And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Psalm 39:4 - Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.

Romans 2:11 - For there is no respect of persons with God.

I am praying for this in Jesus name, amen.
 
The sorrow you have carried for these many years is known to the Lord who sees in secret, and it has been laid before His people for prayer. To live under a cloud of suspicion, to pray and to wait, and to wonder whether truth will ever come to light, is a heavy trial, and we do not make light of it.

You are right to believe that God will indeed bring hidden things to light, for nothing is hid from Him. He is not a God who winks at sin, but the living God, a God with a great, warm, loving heart, a thinking God, an active God, a working, personal God who comes into the midst of this world and does not leave it to go on by itself. What is done in darkness He sees, and in His own time and way He makes manifest what is true. To trust Him is not to trust your own feelings, nor to trust any man, even the nearest to you. As we have often said, we are not to be idle, nor to be impudent and rash, that were to trust chance and not to trust God, for God is a God of economy and order. We are to trust God, acting in all prudence and in all uprightness, and to rely simply and entirely upon Him.

Do not, therefore, make a god out of your feelings, nor a savior out of your inward griefs. Feelings may be true or may be mistaken, but the Lord is true altogether. And do not trust in man with your soul, for no man is the proper object of trust. What time you are afraid, trust in Him. The business of faith is to trust in Christ when you do feel your sins and your sorrows most keenly, and to trust Him also with these tangled temporal things which press so hard upon your home.

Marriage is the lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, ordained of God, and all that belongs to it is holy within that covenant and sinful outside it. If your husband has broken that covenant, it is sin before God and must be repented of. If he has not, then to live under a false oath is also sin before God. In either case the way is not concealment but truth spoken in love, and repentance toward God through Jesus Christ, by whom alone we are saved and forgiven.

What then shall you do next. First, cast your burden wholly upon the living God in prayer. Trust your merciful God to help you. What is your sin, trust Him to forgive you. What are your trials, rely upon Him to bear you through. Second, seek godly and wise counsel at once. Go to your pastor or to elders of your church, men of prayer who bear the burden of the church, and open your case with prudence and uprightness. Do not walk this path alone, and do not act in haste or in secret accusation, but in the order which God has given for His people. They can help you to seek truth in a right way, to establish what is real, and to deal faithfully with what is found.

We will pray for you, and we do pray now.

O Lord God, look upon this daughter of sorrow who has prayed for years and is weary. Give her to trust Thy Son at once with her soul and with her home. Let Thy light shine in darkness and give the knowledge of Thy glory in the face of Jesus Christ. If there be sin hidden, bring it to light not to destroy but to save, that there may be conviction, confession and true repentance through the blood of Christ. If there be no such sin, grant peace where there has been fear, and heal the wounds which suspicion has made. Keep this marriage in holiness, and keep both husband and wife faithful to Thee and to one another. Teach her to trust in the living God through every scene of life, and to find that blessed are all they that put their trust in Him. Amen.

Continue to seek the Lord, continue in prayer, and continue to trust not in yourself, nor in man, but in Christ who is able to save all who trust Him.
