Restoration of Marriage

We grieve with you over the brokenness in your marriage, and we stand firmly on God’s Word to declare that what the enemy has stolen, the Lord can restore—if both hearts are surrendered to His will. Marriage is a sacred covenant before God, and He hates divorce (Malachi 2:16, WEB). Your husband’s actions are not only a betrayal of your vows but a rebellion against God’s design for marriage. The fact that the woman he is with claims to be a "minister" only deepens the deception, for no true servant of Christ would participate in or enable adultery. Such behavior is an abomination in the sight of the Lord (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, WEB), and those who call themselves by His name must walk in repentance and holiness.
We must first address the spiritual warfare at play here. The enemy seeks to destroy marriages, but we know that "the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4, WEB). This situation is not beyond God’s power to redeem, but redemption begins with repentance. Your husband—and this woman—must turn from their sin and return to the Lord. Pray earnestly that the Holy Spirit would convict them of their wrongdoing and lead them to genuine repentance. Pray also for yourself, that God would guard your heart from bitterness and fill you with His peace as you trust in Him.
We encourage you to examine your own heart as well. Have you forgiven your husband, even as you pray for restoration? Unforgiveness can become a stronghold that hinders God’s work. Jesus tells us, "But if you don’t forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses" (Matthew 6:15, WEB). Forgiveness does not mean excusing sin or trusting blindly, but it releases the offense to God, who is the righteous judge. It also frees *you* from the bondage of resentment.
As you pray for restoration, remember that God’s ways are higher than ours. His timing is perfect, and His will is good. He may be refining you through this trial, drawing you closer to Himself. Seek His face daily, and ask Him to reveal any areas in your life that need surrender. Cling to His promises, such as Jeremiah 32:27 (WEB): "Behold, I am Yahweh, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me?" and Joel 2:25 (WEB): "I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten."
If your husband remains unrepentant, you must also prepare your heart for the possibility that God’s plan may look different than you hope. While we pray fervently for restoration, we also acknowledge that God calls His people to holiness and does not require you to remain in a marriage where your spouse is unrepentantly living in adultery. Scripture permits separation in cases of sexual immorality (Matthew 19:9, WEB), though reconciliation should always be the first pursuit. Seek wise, biblical counsel from trusted believers or pastors who can guide you in godly wisdom.
Lastly, we notice that your request did not invoke the name of Jesus, and we must gently but firmly remind you that there is no other name by which we can approach the Father. Jesus Himself said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me" (John 14:6, WEB). It is only through the blood of Christ that we have access to God’s throne of grace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so now. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection for your salvation, and invite Him to reign in your heart. There is no greater foundation for your prayers—or your life—than a personal relationship with Him.

Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who is brokenhearted and weary from the betrayal in her marriage. Lord, You see her pain, and You collect every tear in Your bottle (Psalm 56:8). We ask that You would be her strength and her shield, her ever-present help in this time of trouble.
Father, we rebuke the spirit of adultery and deception that has infiltrated this marriage. We bind the enemy’s work and declare that no weapon formed against Your covenant will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Lord, expose the darkness and bring conviction to our sister’s husband and the woman he is with. Let them be confronted with the weight of their sin and the reality of Your holiness. Softens their hearts, Lord, and draw them to repentance. Remove any blinders the enemy has placed over their eyes, and let them see the destruction they are bringing upon themselves and others.
We pray for supernatural restoration, Father. If it is Your will, reunite this marriage in a way that brings glory to Your name. Heal the wounds, rebuild the trust, and renew the love between them. But above all, let Your will be done. Give our sister the wisdom to know how to proceed, whether in pursuing reconciliation or walking in obedience if her husband remains hardened. Surround her with godly counsel and support, and let her not be isolated in her pain.
Lord, we also pray for our sister’s heart. Guard her from bitterness, anger, or despair. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Let her find her identity and worth in You alone, knowing that she is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Strengthen her faith, and let her trust in You even when the path is unclear.
Father, we ask all these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and our Hope. Let Your kingdom come and Your will be done in this marriage, for Your glory alone. Amen.

We're here with you, sister, in this trial that's testing your faith and breaking your heart. We see the pain you're in, and we want you to know that God sees it too. He's right there with you, every step of the way.
As we continue to pray for restoration, let's not forget the power of unity in prayer. "Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven" (Matthew 18:19, ESV). Let's stand together in faith, believing for a miracle in your marriage.
We've been praying for your husband's heart to be softened, for the woman he's with to have conviction and turn away from her sin, and for you to be filled with peace and strength. We've been binding the spirit of adultery and deception, and we've been asking God to move mightily in this situation.
We also want to encourage you to keep forgiving, even if it's hard. Forgiveness isn't about excusing the sin, but releasing it to God. It's about trusting Him to make all things right. And remember, forgiveness doesn't mean you have to trust blindly. It means you're choosing to leave justice in God's hands.
Let's keep praying, believing, and trusting in God's goodness. He's working behind the scenes, even when we can't see it. And remember, He's got a plan, and it's a good one. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV).
Let's keep lifting this up to God together, in Jesus' name.
