Repents being own god Gen 3:1-15 🙇🏻Turns to God 🔜Acts 3:19 Renewal Tit 3:3-8 👁️👁 Opened by💡of God's 📖 2 Cor 4:4-6 New 💝 Ezek 36:26 Jn 3:3-7...

[Nochaeld]

Law of LORD acts as Tutor to Lead to Christ, Gal 3:24, for Conversion of Soul, Ps 19:7-11, New Heart, Ezek 36:26, Renewal by Mercy, Washing of Regeneration by Holy Spirit, Tit 3:5-6, Serpent's Lies Resisted, James 4:7, John 8:44, 1 Peter 5:8, Matt 16:17-18, Chooses God's Word, Gen 2:17, over lie of choosing right and wrong for herself, being her own god, Gen 3:4-5, Fear of God is to hate evil, Prov 8:13... Father, in Your Kindness, Lead the woman that bore my child, our families and ourselves where we need it to maximum Repentance, "the kindness of God is intended to lead us to repentance," Paul, Rom 2:4... You will none perish but all come to repentance, Peter, 2 Pet 3:9... You desire all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth, 1 Tim 2:4. "Eternal fire was prepared for the devil and his angels, Matt 25:41, not humans that were originally made to image God, Gen 1:27.

Let us be merciful, that we may receive mercy, Matt 5:7... We ask for grace to add fasting, Mk 4:29, which the early church said, "fasting and giving lends wings to prayer," (Tertullian, 155AD - 240AD). Help the one compassionate, honest and understanding family member witness to truth. Forgive this one the prayer for neglecting pastoral counsel and phone calls. We know that God causes all things to work all after the counsel of His will, Eph 1:11, not our will, and certainly not our timing. It's better to take refuge in God, than hope in princes, Ps 118:9. We trust You in the midst of trials, we trust in God -- God whose Word we praise, Ps 56:4... If king's hearts are as channels of water, Prov 21:1, how much more an individual that has chosen to feed on raisin cakes and needs repentance from serious sins, which Hosea's "deal with her" was based on repentance, see Hos 3:1-5. As this one is unwilling to reconcile, wants divorce, says we are done and though I've reached out, prayed and fasted, is still as unwilling to return a text in 3 months, much less return to me as most of Jerusalem was unwilling to gather under the wings of the Almighty or come to Jesus, over which He publicly wept, Matt 23:37.

Soften her heart and protect her from evil (also the youth, 2 Tim 3:15, and all of us, Eph 6:18-19, 1 Tim 2:1-4. We actually ask You God to save her), Matt 6:13. Let LIGHT SHINE that penetrates darkness, Jn 1:5, 1 Jn 1:5, 2 Cor 4:4, 2 Cor 4:6, to open their eyes, turning this one from the power of darkness to light, and power of satan to God, that they may partake of the inheritance along with all who are sanctified by faith in Jesus Christ, Acts 26:18, 1 Cor 1:30. Help her, them (and all of us) use our "Bible Apps" and understand what it says enough to let the Words You have caused to live inside become flesh in real life, Jn 1:12, James 1:22-23. Let "Jesus Christ's love be publicly portrayed," Gal 3:1, and model it to each and every family member, those most near and dear and beyond and blinded -- let us be living epistles known and read by all, 2 Cor 3:2. All Scripture is inspired by God Almighty and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right," 2 Tim 3:15-16. "Do not take us out of the world, but keep us from the evil one," John 17:15. "Sanctify us by the truth; Your word is truth," John 17:17. Thank you in The Name of Jesus, The One Mediator between God and Man, 1 Tim 2:5, in Jesus' Name.

"I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will remove your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh," Ezek 36:26.
“But this is the covenant I'll make... I'll put My law in their minds and write it on their hearts. I'll be their God; they'll be My people," Jer 31:33.
Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless one is born again," Jn3:3, "Do not be amazed that I said, ‘You must be born again,'" John 3:7.

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this situation with the earnestness it deserves. The pain of a broken marriage and the hardness of a heart that refuses reconciliation is a burden no one should bear alone. Yet we know that our God is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We stand in the gap, pleading for mercy, repentance, and restoration, not by our own strength, but by the power of Jesus Christ, who alone can soften hearts and redeem what is broken.

First, we must address the foundation of all hope: salvation through Jesus Christ. There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). The request you’ve shared speaks of repentance, renewal, and the battle against the lies of the enemy, but it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that these things become possible. If the one you love does not know Christ as Lord and Savior, our first and most urgent prayer must be for her soul. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). We pray that the eyes of her heart would be opened to the truth of the Gospel, that she would turn from the deception of being her own god, a lie as old as Eden (Genesis 3:4-5), and submit to the lordship of Christ.

The hardness of heart you describe is a spiritual battle, and we must not shy away from naming the forces at work. The enemy prowls like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8), and he delights in division, bitterness, and the destruction of marriages. We rebuke the spirit of rebellion, pride, and unforgiveness that has taken root in this situation. We declare that no weapon formed against this marriage shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we command every lie of the enemy to be broken in the name of Jesus. The one who has said, "We are done," is not speaking from the Spirit of God, for the Holy Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). We pray that the Spirit would convict her of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), leading her to repentance.

Marriage is a sacred covenant, instituted by God Himself, and it is meant to reflect the relationship between Christ and His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). The refusal to reconcile is not just a personal choice, it is a violation of God’s design. We must also examine our own hearts in this. Have we sought godly counsel? Have we humbled ourselves, even when it was painful? Have we truly surrendered this situation to God, trusting that His will is perfect, even when it doesn’t align with our desires? The Lord opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). We must be willing to repent of any bitterness, unforgiveness, or self-righteousness in our own hearts, for we cannot ask God to soften her heart if ours remains hardened.

We pray for a miracle of reconciliation, but we also pray for wisdom. If this marriage is to be restored, it must be restored on God’s terms, not through manipulation, coercion, or human effort alone, but through sincere repentance, forgiveness, and a shared commitment to Christ. If restoration is not God’s will, then we pray for the strength to accept His plan, even when it is painful. The Lord works all things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose (Romans 8:28). We must trust that His ways are higher than our ways (Isaiah 55:8-9).

We lift up the children in this situation, for they are the innocent ones caught in the crossfire. We pray that they would be shielded from bitterness, confusion, and the lies of the enemy. May they come to know Christ personally and find their identity in Him, not in the brokenness of their family. Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it (Proverbs 22:6). We ask that the Lord would raise up godly influences in their lives, mentors, pastors, or family members who can speak truth and love into their hearts.

We also pray for the family members who are seeking to be compassionate and truthful. May their witness be bold yet gracious, seasoned with salt (Colossians 4:6), so that they may know how to answer everyone. Let them not grow weary in doing good (Galatians 6:9), even when their efforts seem fruitless. We ask that the Lord would open doors for them to speak life and truth into this situation.

Finally, we pray for you, the one who has carried this burden. The weight of unanswered prayer, silence, and rejection is heavy, but the Lord sees your tears and collects them in His bottle (Psalm 56:8). Do not grow weary in praying and fasting, for the fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much (James 5:16). We encourage you to continue seeking godly counsel, immersing yourself in Scripture, and trusting that God is at work even when you cannot see it. The testing of your faith produces perseverance, and perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything (James 1:3-4).

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts broken over the state of this marriage and the hardness of heart that has taken root. We thank You that You are a God who hears the cries of Your people and who delights in showing mercy. We confess that apart from You, we can do nothing (John 15:5), and so we humble ourselves before You, asking for Your intervention.

Lord, we pray for the salvation of this woman. Open her eyes to the truth of the Gospel, that she may see her need for a Savior. Break the chains of deception that have led her to believe she can be her own god. Soften her heart, Lord, as only You can. Remove the heart of stone and give her a heart of flesh (Ezekiel 36:26). Let the kindness of God lead her to repentance (Romans 2:4), and may she turn to You with all her heart.

We rebuke the spirit of rebellion, pride, and unforgiveness that has taken hold in this situation. We declare that no weapon formed against this marriage shall prosper, and we command every lie of the enemy to be silenced in the name of Jesus. Father, we ask that You would bring conviction where there is sin, healing where there is brokenness, and restoration where there is division.

If it is Your will, Lord, we pray for the reconciliation of this marriage. Let both parties be willing to humble themselves, seek forgiveness, and commit to rebuilding what has been broken. Give them a shared vision for a marriage that honors You, rooted in love, respect, and mutual submission. But if restoration is not Your plan, we pray for the strength to accept Your will, even when it is painful. Help them to trust You with their future, knowing that You work all things together for good.

We pray for the children in this family. Protect their hearts from bitterness and confusion. Draw them to Yourself, Lord, and let them find their identity in Christ. Surround them with godly influences who can speak truth and love into their lives.

We lift up the family members who are seeking to be a witness in this situation. Give them wisdom, boldness, and grace as they navigate these difficult conversations. Let their words be seasoned with salt, and may their lives reflect the love of Christ.

And for the one who has carried this burden, we ask that You would be their strength and their shield. Comfort them in their sorrow, sustain them in their prayers, and fill them with hope for the future. Remind them that You are close to the brokenhearted and that You save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18).

Father, we ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the One who reconciles us to You and to one another. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified in this situation. We trust You, Lord, for You are faithful, and Your promises are true. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

We hear the weight of all you are carrying right now. You have prayed, fasted, wept over the silence, and held fast to hope. That kind of longing and perseverance matters deeply to God. It is also exhausting, and we are sorry you are walking through this painful season.

Right now the silence from her feels like a door slammed shut, and the ache of being unable to reach her is real. One of the hardest things about divorce is that it is very much like experiencing a death, the death of a marriage and so many hopes tied to it. That grief deserves space, and you deserve support as you navigate it. We would gently encourage you to find a trusted pastor or a wise friend outside the situation with whom you can talk openly and regularly; you cannot carry this alone, and you were never meant to.

While you continue to pray, we also want you to hear: her choices are not a verdict on your worth, and you are not responsible for a heart you cannot reach. Place her, your child, and your own weary heart into God's hands afresh, trusting that He sees what you cannot. It is not wrong to grieve what is broken; even the Lord grieves over stubborn wanderers. But do not let the weight of this make you forget His kindness toward you, too, even now.

Lord, in Your mercy, draw near to this man who is weary and heavy-laden. Cover the child caught in this fracture with Your steady protection and peace. For the woman he still loves, we ask You to do what only You can, soften what has hardened and bring godly sorrow where it is needed. Give this husband wisdom to know what is his to steward and what he must release to You. Sustain him. In Jesus' name.

[Spurgeon]

The cry of your soul reveals that you have seen the serpent’s lie for what it is, and that is no small mercy. To perceive the horror of being one’s own god, grasping after the knowledge of good and evil, is a discovery that flesh and blood cannot make. The stony heart of man would never mourn its own hardness unless a secret finger of divine grace had touched it. Yet your prayer betrays an agony that still needs the balm of a full and present salvation. You seek a new heart for another, and that is well, but do you yourself fully rest in the heart of flesh that Christ gives? The promise stands: “A new heart also will I give you.” That word is not for the deserving, but for the undone. It is God’s work, not man’s reformation. No surgeon can carve out the stone and implant living tissue; only the pierced hand of Jesus can do it. And He does it by shedding abroad the love of God in the heart, so that the sinner, seeing blood-bought pardon, finds the rock dissolved.

You speak of repentance, and rightly, but remember that there is a repentance that merely recoils from consequences and yet loves the sin. True repentance glorifies God because it loathes the evil itself and clings to holiness. Law and terrors may break the surface, but they cannot plow the deep. Only a sight of Christ crucified pricks the heart unto life. Has that been your own experience? Do not marvel that the one for whom you pray remains unmoved by your fasting and tears if the Spirit has not yet applied the cordial of Calvary’s love. The heart will never yield until it sees Jesus publicly portrayed as the bleeding Substitute. Your longings for her soul are right, but beware of a divided heart in your own pursuit. You cannot command the winds, but you can hoist the sail. Wait on God in prayer, but wait also in full surrender to His timing. He is not slack concerning His promise; the set time for mercy will come. Meanwhile, let your own heart be perfumed with the love of God, which makes every burden light. And if your heart is broken, take it to the Great Physician, He was anointed to heal the brokenhearted, and He has never yet refused a contrite case.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

You speak of repentance and the new heart that God alone can give. It is good that you pray for the mother of your child and for all your household, and that you do not cease to reach out with tears and fasting. But see that your sorrow is of the godly sort, not one that ends in despair or worldly vexation. For godly sorrow works repentance unto salvation, a repentance that brings no regret. When we grieve over sin and the blindness of those we love, that grief carries its own consolation and bears fruit if we do not faint.

Yet remember: you do not save her by your anguish, nor by multiplying words. The Lord has appointed many remedies for our wounds: alms, compunction, a contrite heart, and especially intercession that entreats the Mercy-seat. Pray, then, with all earnestness, but know that her salvation hangs not on your fasting alone, but on her own turning. John the Baptist did not beget children of stones by his tears; he pointed to the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world and called men to repentance. So you, too, must trust the One who desires all to be saved and is able to soften hearts of stone. He does not need your entreaties as though unwilling, but He uses them to make you partaker of His own love and to keep you from growing indifferent.

There is no second cross needed, no new sacrifice for her sins. Christ by one offering has perfected forever those who are being sanctified. The way is short: confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you shall be saved. That same word can bring her life if she will hear it. Your prayers and the witness of a compassionate family member are like voices in the wilderness; they prepare the way, but the laver of regeneration and the renewal of the Spirit are God’s own work.

Therefore, cast off every thought that would make you think her case beyond mercy. He who commanded the light to shine out of darkness can shine into her heart. Only do not make of your sorrow a worldly grief that mutters against God’s timing. He is kinder than you know; often He delays that we might become more fervent, and His wrath is but a shadow to drive us to the refuge of His wings. Keep praying, keep fasting as your strength allows, but above all fix your hope not on princes, not on your own striving, but on the God whose word you praise. Give thanks for the promised new heart, and wait for Him who is faithful.
