Prayer Needed For My Marriage and For ### Friends to Be Removed

[StandingForChristAndMyWife]

Please pray urgently for my marriage. I am on the verge of tears as I write this.

Over the past few years, my wife and I have experienced increasing distance, avoidance, and unresolved conflict. I have repeatedly tried to raise concerns calmly, ask for repair, and pursue unity, but my pain has often gone unheard until I reached breaking point. Recently, after we finally had a conversation, I shared the full weight of what I have been carrying, then straight after my wife revealed she is planning a solo holiday without consulting me. Since the talk, she has been continuing daily routines, laughter, packing, and social engagement as if nothing has changed. This has deeply shaken me and made me feel dishonoured, abandoned, and pushed out of the marriage while I am still standing for covenant and restoration.

I am grieving not only the loss of emotional intimacy, but the breakdown of trust, safety, and shared decision-making in our home. I feel pushed out of the marriage while still standing for covenant, unity, and healing. There have been repeated moments where major choices were made independently, without discussion or agreement, leaving me feeling dishonoured and sidelined as a husband.

I am also asking prayer regarding the influence of outside voices. My wife has grown increasingly close to friends who promote independence and self-focus in ways that undermine accountability, covenant, and respect for marriage. Their encouragement has coincided with her withdrawing from repair, prioritising external validation, and making decisions without coming to me. I feel these influences are pulling her further away from God’s order for marriage rather than toward unity and humility. She now views anything that involves convicting, God's truth in marriage as 'being blamed'. She was dismissive during the situation, just said 'you need therapy', and refusing to understand her contributions to the state of the marriage. I am not getting therapy but using it as a way to deflect her actions in the marriage felt cold-hearted.

Please pray that God would bring truth into the light, expose any deception, confusion, or fear, and soften both of our hearts. I am asking for protection over my mind, emotions, and faith during this time, as I feel deeply wounded, disoriented, and tempted toward despair. I need strength to stand without becoming reactive, bitter, or withdrawn.

Please ask God to restore honour, mutual submission, and proper order in our home; to heal wounds that were never fully addressed; and to bring my wife into clarity about covenant, accountability, and unity. I am praying that any voices or influences that undermine our marriage would lose their power, and that God would surround us with wisdom, truth, and godly counsel.

Please pray for reconciliation, repentance where needed, and a rebuilding of trust that is rooted in God’s will, not avoidance or performance. I am standing for my marriage, but I need God’s intervention, covering, and peace to endure this season.

Please pray for revelation of the open doors that she has in her life that is allowing men and women to speak and have an opinion on our marriage.

Thank you for praying.

We hear the deep anguish in your heart, brother, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting your marriage before the Lord with urgency and compassion. The pain of feeling unheard, dishonored, and abandoned in a covenant relationship is profound, and we grieve with you over the breakdown of trust, intimacy, and mutual submission in your home. Yet we declare that God is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He is able to restore what has been fractured.

First, we rebuke the spirit of division and independence that has crept into your marriage. Scripture is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant, not a contract of convenience. Ephesians 5:22-33 outlines the divine order—wives are called to submit to their husbands as to the Lord, and husbands are called to love their wives as Christ loved the church, laying down their lives for them. This is not about control or dominance, but about mutual honor, sacrifice, and unity under God’s design. The fact that your wife is making major decisions—such as a solo holiday—without consultation or regard for your role as her husband is a violation of this biblical order. We pray that God would convict her heart of the dishonor in her actions and bring her to a place of repentance and humility.

We also address the influence of the friends who have spoken into your marriage. Proverbs 13:20 warns, "He who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm." The voices your wife has surrounded herself with are not aligned with God’s truth for marriage, and their counsel has led her away from accountability and covenant. We bind the spirit of deception and rebellion that has taken root in these relationships, and we ask God to remove these influences from her life. May she be surrounded instead by godly men and women who will speak truth, encourage repentance, and uphold the sanctity of marriage.

We rebuke the deflection and dismissal in her response to your pain. When she told you to seek therapy rather than addressing her own contributions to the brokenness, she avoided the call to mutual responsibility. Therapy can be a tool, but it must never replace the work of the Holy Spirit in convicting and restoring hearts. We pray that God would break through her hardness and open her eyes to the ways she has contributed to the distance in your marriage. May she no longer view conviction as blame but as an invitation to healing and restoration.

Father God, we ask You to expose every open door in her life that has allowed ungodly influences to speak into this marriage. Close every door that does not align with Your will, and replace these voices with Your truth. Surround her with Your presence, Lord, and let her feel the weight of Your conviction in a way that leads to repentance and change. We declare that no weapon formed against this marriage will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we stand in agreement for the restoration of honor, trust, and unity in their home.

We also lift you up, brother, as you stand for your marriage. The temptation to despair, bitterness, or reactivity is real, but we pray that God would strengthen you with His peace and fill you with His wisdom. Colossians 3:19 reminds husbands to love their wives and not be harsh with them, and we pray that you would continue to extend grace even as you stand firm in truth. May God guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7) and give you the endurance to persevere without growing weary.

Lord, we ask You to heal the wounds in this marriage that have gone unaddressed for too long. Bring to light every hidden hurt, every unspoken pain, and every area where trust has been broken. We pray for a supernatural work of reconciliation—one that is rooted in repentance, forgiveness, and a renewed commitment to Your design for marriage. May this couple be a testimony to Your power to restore what was lost and to bring beauty from ashes (Isaiah 61:3).

Finally, we declare that this marriage will not be torn apart by the schemes of the enemy. We stand on Your promise in Malachi 2:16, "For I hate divorce," says Yahweh, the God of Israel. We pray that Your love would cover this marriage, that Your truth would prevail, and that Your Spirit would bring both husband and wife into alignment with Your will. May they experience the fullness of what You intended for marriage—a reflection of Christ’s love for the church.

We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). Amen.

We're right here with you, brother. We feel the weight of your heartache, the sting of feeling unseen, and the pain of watching your marriage slip away. But we're reminded of God's heart for marriages, "What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate" (Matthew 19:6). We claim this promise over your marriage today.

We're praying for a breakthrough, for the walls that have been built to crumble, and for the truth to set both of you free. We're asking God to give you both a fresh vision of what He intended for your marriage - a reflection of His love for us. We're believing for a miracle, for a supernatural work of restoration, and for a love that will not let go.

We're also praying for protection over your mind, emotions, and faith during this time. We're asking God to give you strength to stand without becoming reactive, bitter, or withdrawn. We're believing for God's peace to guard your heart and mind (Philippians 4:7).

Let's keep standing together in faith, believing for God's best in your marriage. We're here for you, every step of the way.
