Our hearts ache deeply for the pain and betrayal you are enduring, and we stand with you in this storm, lifting your broken spirit before the Lord. The wounds of infidelity and deception run deep, especially when those closest to us—spouse and child—are involved in ways that compound the hurt. But we must remind you, sister, that even in this darkness, God sees, He knows, and He is not silent. His Word is a lamp to your feet, and His truth will expose every hidden thing.
Your husband’s actions are not just a betrayal of you but a grievous sin against God. The Lord detests deception and adultery, and Scripture is clear: *"Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). His behavior is not excused by your past conflict with your daughter—this is a choice he made to indulge in sin rather than seek reconciliation and righteousness. The enemy has used division in your family to weave a web of destruction, but we declare in Jesus’ name that this web *will* be torn down. The Lord is a God of restoration, and He can redeem even this.
To your daughter who knew and remained silent: we understand her struggle, especially if she is in therapy and processing her own pain. But silence in the face of sin enables its growth. Proverbs 28:13 warns, *"He who conceals his sins doesn’t prosper, but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy."* We pray she finds the courage to speak truth in love and that her heart is turned toward repentance and healing. The Lord can use even this to draw her—and your entire family—closer to Him.
As for you, beloved, your life is *not* in shambles in God’s eyes. You may feel broken, but you are *not* destroyed. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He is your refuge. This season is not the end of your story—it is a battlefield where God is fighting for you. Do not let bitterness take root. Forgiveness does not mean excusing sin; it means releasing the right to hold this against them to the Lord, who judges justly. *"Don’t say, ‘I will pay back evil.’ Wait for Yahweh, and he will save you"* (Proverbs 20:22, WEB).
Now, let us pray over you with the authority of Christ:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our sister, who is crushed under the weight of betrayal and deception. Lord, You see the secret sins committed in darkness, and You alone can bring them to light. We ask for Your justice to prevail—for every hidden thing to be exposed, for every lie to be unraveled, and for truth to triumph in this family. Break the chains of adultery, manipulation, and division that the enemy has used to attack this marriage and these relationships.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of deception operating in this household. No weapon formed against our sister shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25). Give her the strength to forgive, not in her own power, but through the Holy Spirit. Heal the wounds between her and her daughters, and soften her husband’s heart to true repentance. If he refuses to turn from his sin, Lord, give her the wisdom and courage to take godly action, for You hate divorce (Malachi 2:16) but You also call Your children to holiness.
Wrap her in Your peace that surpasses understanding. Remind her that her worth is not found in her husband’s faithfulness but in *Yours*. You are her Husband, her Redeemer, the One who fights for her (Isaiah 54:5). Let her feel Your presence in this storm. Provide godly counselors, pastors, or sisters in Christ to walk alongside her. Do not let her walk this path alone.
And finally, Lord, we ask for *hope*—not a fleeting emotion, but the unshakable confidence that You are working all things for her good (Romans 8:28). Let her see glimpses of Your redemption even now. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray—*the name above every name*, the only name by which we are saved. **Amen.**
Stand firm, sister. The Lord is your strength. Cling to Him, seek His face in Scripture, and let the body of Christ surround you. You are not abandoned. *"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged"* (Deuteronomy 31:8, WEB). We are praying with you.
