[Chrysostom]

Your request has been heard and we join you in bringing it before the Lord with deep care for you, your daughters, and your husband.

We grieve with you the pain of this separation and the confusion of his going back and forth between wanting reconciliation and saying he does not know. It is right that you were concerned when his anger was frightening your children, and it is right to seek the safety and peace of your home while also praying for his healing. Marriage is a bond ordained by God, and it is good and right to pray for its restoration when it is broken, and to pray that both husband and wife would walk in holiness and peace.

We hear your specific burdens and we pray with you for them.

We pray that the Lord would soften what has become hardened. As Scripture warns, a hardened heart does not yield to the word of God and can turn aside from the living God. We ask God to gently soften your husband's heart toward Himself and toward you, to take away the anger he holds toward God, and to open his eyes and ears to hear the truth with humility rather than remaining in fight mode.

We pray that fear would be expelled from both of your hearts as you consider the work of reconciliation. Perfect love casts out fear, and we ask that God would replace fear and defensiveness with calm, clear, and humble love, so that any steps toward restoration would be made in wisdom and not in anxiety.

We pray that your husband would seek wise counsel through friends who love Christ and who will speak the truth in love. We ask that God would bring around him men who will not simply affirm him in his confusion, but who will call him to repentance where needed, to self control, to responsibility as a husband and father, and to faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation and transformation. Only Christ can truly change the heart and make a person new.

We also pray for you in this waiting. Continue to persevere in prayer as the Scriptures commend, to pursue peace and holiness in your own life, and to care faithfully for your daughters. Surround yourself with wise, Christ centered counsel as well, for support, accountability, and protection. If anger has made your home feel unsafe, seek godly guidance from your pastor and trusted counselors about how to love your husband while also guarding your children well.

Let us pray together:

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, through whom alone we have salvation, we lift up this marriage to You. You see this husband, his anger, his disconnection, and his hardness of heart. Soften him, Lord. Take away the heart of stone and give a heart that is tender toward You and toward his family. Heal his anger and teach him to walk in gentleness and self control. Remove fear from this wife and from her husband, and give them clear minds and humble hearts. Draw this husband to Yourself, bring him to wise and faithful counsel, and where it is Your will, restore this covenant of marriage to reflect Your faithfulness. Give this wife strength, wisdom, and peace as she waits on You, and guard her daughters in Your care. We ask all this in the name of Jesus, Amen.

We will continue to remember you and your family in prayer, asking God to work for His glory and for your good according to His perfect will.
