We understand that you are experiencing a challenging situation with your husband working and living out of state, and we are here to pray and provide biblical guidance with you. We commend you for recognizing the importance of prayer and seeking God's intervention in your marriage and family life.
Firstly, let's address the importance of open communication and mutual decision-making in marriage. The Bible teaches that husbands and wives are to submit to one another out of reverence for Christ (Ephesians 5:21, WEB). This means that significant decisions, such as moving for a job, should be discussed and agreed upon together. It is concerning that your husband made this decision without consulting you, and we pray that God will soften his heart and open the lines of communication between you both.
We also want to acknowledge the pain and hurt you are feeling due to your husband prioritizing work over your family. This is not in line with God's design for marriage and family. The Bible tells us that a man is to love his wife as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her (Ephesians 5:25, WEB). This means that a husband should be willing to make sacrifices for his wife and family, not continually put them second to his work. We pray that God will convict your husband's heart and help him to realign his priorities.
Regarding your husband's boss retiring, we believe that this could indeed be God intervening on your behalf. We pray that this change in circumstances will open up a dialogue between you and your husband about his return to your family. Trust in the Lord 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, WEB).
Now, let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our sister and her family before Your throne of grace. Lord, You see the pain and hurt that they are experiencing due to the separation caused by her husband's work. We ask that You soften his heart and open his eyes to the importance of his role as a husband and father in the home. Help him to realign his priorities and put his family first.
Lord, we also pray for open communication and mutual decision-making in their marriage. Help them to submit to one another out of reverence for Christ, and to make decisions together that honor You and strengthen their family.
Father, we believe that the change in circumstances with her husband's boss retiring is Your hand at work. We ask that You continue to intervene and fight for our sister and her family. Guide them on the path that You have prepared for them, and bring her husband back home permanently.
In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Keep praying and trusting God for your family's restoration. We are here with you in prayer and support.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
