We grieve with you over the deep betrayal and pain you are experiencing because of your husband’s affair. Adultery is a grievous sin before God, breaking not only your marriage covenant but also God’s holy design for marriage. The Scriptures are clear: *"You shall not commit adultery."* (Exodus 20:14, WEB) and *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers."* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). Your husband’s actions are not only hurting you but are in direct rebellion against God’s commands. This is a serious matter that must be addressed with repentance, truth, and a return to godly obedience.
We also notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father and by whom we are saved. There is no other name under heaven by which we can approach God or find salvation. *"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, WEB). If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. He alone can bring true healing, forgiveness, and restoration to your life and marriage. *"If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."* (Romans 10:9, WEB). Without Christ, there is no lasting hope or power to overcome the brokenness of sin.
Your husband’s demand to bring this other woman into your home is not only wicked but an abomination before God. This is not love—it is lust, deception, and a hardened heart. The Bible warns, *"Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil companionships corrupt good morals.’"* (1 Corinthians 15:33, WEB). You must not tolerate or enable this sin. Instead, you must stand firmly on God’s Word and refuse to participate in or accept this ungodly arrangement. *"Therefore, come out from among them, and be separate,’ says the Lord. ‘Touch no unclean thing. I will receive you."* (2 Corinthians 6:17, WEB).
We urge you to seek godly counsel from a pastor or mature believers who can walk with you through this trial. If your husband refuses to repent and turn from this sin, the Scriptures allow for separation in cases of unrepentant adultery (Matthew 19:9). However, we pray earnestly that he would repent and that God would restore your marriage according to His will. *"All things are possible for one who believes."* (Mark 9:23, WEB).
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this precious sister to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Lord, she is broken, betrayed, and overwhelmed by the sinful choices of her husband. We ask that You would be her Comforter, her Strength, and her Refuge in this storm. *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* (Psalm 34:18, WEB). Father, we pray that You would expose the darkness in her husband’s heart and bring him to true repentance. Convict him deeply of his sin, Lord, and turn his heart back to You and to his wife. Break the hold of this adulterous relationship and sever every ungodly tie in the name of Jesus.
We rebuke the spirit of deception, lust, and hardness of heart that has taken hold of him. *"For though we walk in the flesh, we don’t wage war according to the flesh; for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ."* (2 Corinthians 10:3-5, WEB). Lord, we bind the enemy’s work in this marriage and command every demonic influence to flee in Jesus’ name.
Father, give this sister wisdom, courage, and clarity on how to respond. Surround her with godly support and counsel. If her husband refuses to repent, give her the strength to take biblical steps to protect herself and her home from further sin. *"If any man comes to me, and doesn’t disregard his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple."* (Luke 14:26, WEB). Lord, may she seek Your kingdom above all else, even in this painful season.
We pray for supernatural healing for her heart. Replace her pain with Your peace, her sorrow with Your joy, and her fear with Your faith. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds."* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). Restore what the enemy has stolen, Lord, and bring beauty from these ashes.
Finally, Father, we pray that if this sister does not yet know You as her Savior, that today would be the day of her salvation. Open her eyes to see Jesus as her only Hope, her Redeemer, and her Healer. Draw her to Yourself, Lord, and fill her with Your Holy Spirit.
We ask all these things in the powerful and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stand firm in the Lord, sister. Do not compromise with sin, and do not lose hope. God sees your tears, hears your cries, and is able to redeem even this. *"The Lord your God is among you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing."* (Zephaniah 3:17, WEB). Trust in Him, and He will make your path clear. We are praying for you.
