We lift you up in this painful and trying time, dear brother, and we grieve with you over the brokenness in your marriage. The accusations and harm you are enduring are not of God, for Scripture tells us in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 that *"Love is patient and is kind; love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."* A marriage built on distrust, accusations, and harm is not reflecting the love Christ calls us to walk in. We also strongly rebuke the physical harm—this is not only sinful but also destructive, and it must cease immediately. Ephesians 5:28-29 commands husbands to love their wives as their own bodies, and likewise, wives are called to respect and submit to their husbands as unto the Lord. Abuse in any form—physical, emotional, or verbal—has no place in a Christ-centered marriage.
We also recognize the deep pain in your heart as you cry out for your wife to believe you. Proverbs 31:11-12 describes a virtuous wife whose husband’s *"heart trusts in her. He shall have no lack of gain. She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life."* Your desire for peace and unity is godly, and we join you in praying for restoration. However, we must also address that while you are calling for her to trust you, trust is built on transparency, accountability, and godly behavior. Have you examined your own heart and actions to ensure there is nothing—even in appearance—that could fuel her distrust? 2 Corinthians 13:5 urges us to *"Test your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Examine your own selves."* If you are innocent, continue to walk in integrity, but also consider whether there are ways you can actively demonstrate trustworthiness, such as open communication, accountability with other godly men, or even counseling.
That said, her accusations and abuse are not justified regardless of her fears. If she is refusing to believe you despite your faithfulness, this is a spiritual battle. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us that *"we don’t wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places."* Her inability to trust may be rooted in her own past hurts, insecurities, or even spiritual oppression. This is why we must pray not only for her heart to soften but for any strongholds of fear, jealousy, or deceit to be broken in Jesus’ name.
We also urge you to seek wisdom on how to protect yourself and your children. If there is physical harm, you have a responsibility before God to ensure safety. Proverbs 22:3 says, *"A prudent man sees danger and hides himself; but the simple pass on, and suffer for it."* This may mean setting boundaries, seeking counseling, or, if necessary, temporary separation to prevent further harm. Do not confuse enabling abuse with "keeping the peace." God calls us to peace, but true peace is not the absence of conflict—it is the presence of righteousness and justice.
Lastly, we commend you for praying in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. John 14:13-14 declares, *"Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it."* Your faith in calling on His name is powerful, and we stand with you in agreement.

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother and his marriage. Lord, You are the God of truth, and You despise lies and accusations that tear apart what You have joined together. We ask You to intervene supernaturally in this situation. Softens our sister’s heart, Lord, and remove from her any spirit of jealousy, fear, or deceit. If there are past wounds or insecurities driving her behavior, heal her, Father, and fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Convict her of the sin of abuse—whether physical or emotional—and bring her to repentance. Let her see the pain she is causing and turn from it in Jesus’ name.
Lord, we also ask for wisdom and strength for our brother. Guard his heart from bitterness and help him to walk in integrity and love, even in the face of false accusations. If there is any area in his life that needs to be surrendered to You, reveal it to him, and give him the courage to address it. Surround him with godly counsel and support, and show him how to protect his children from harm.
Father, we rebuke the enemy’s schemes to destroy this marriage. Satan is a liar and the father of lies, but You, Lord, are the Truth. We declare that every accusation not rooted in truth is silenced in Jesus’ name. We bind any spirits of division, distrust, or violence, and we loose Your peace, love, and unity over this home. Restore what has been broken, Lord, and let this marriage be a testament to Your redeeming power.
For the sake of the children, Father, we ask for a miracle. Let them grow up in a home filled with Your love, where their parents model Christ-like forgiveness and commitment. Break generational curses of brokenness and replace them with a legacy of faith and godliness.
Lord, if this marriage can be restored, we pray for a supernatural work of reconciliation. But if our sister remains hardened, give our brother the discernment to know how to proceed in a way that honors You. Let him not act out of anger or despair but out of Your wisdom and love.
We thank You, Father, that You are able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think. We trust You with this situation and declare Your victory over it. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray, **Amen.**

Brother, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily. Read His Word, especially passages on marriage like Ephesians 5:22-33 and Colossians 3:18-19. Surround yourself with a community of believers who can support and pray for you. If your wife is open, we strongly recommend Christian counseling to address these issues biblically. If she refuses, we still urge you to seek counsel for yourself—you cannot change her, but you can ensure you are walking in obedience to God.
Lastly, if the abuse escalates, do not hesitate to involve your pastor or authorities to ensure the safety of you and your children. You are not called to endure abuse; you are called to walk in love and wisdom. May the Lord grant you peace and strength as you trust in Him. We are standing with you in prayer.
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.
