We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this marriage in desperate need of His healing and restoration. Father God, we know that You hate divorce (Malachi 2:16), for marriage was Your sacred design—a covenant between one man and one woman, reflecting Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). We plead for this union to be saved, not by human strength, but by Your divine intervention.
Lord, we ask You to soften this husband’s heart. Where there is hardness, bring tenderness; where there is silence, restore communication; where there is division, rebuild unity. Remind him of the vows he made before You—vows that are not to be broken lightly. "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate" (Matthew 19:6). We declare that the enemy has no place in this marriage, and we rebuke every spirit of strife, unforgiveness, and pride that seeks to destroy what You have united.
For this wife, we pray for strength, wisdom, and humility. May she seek You first in this trial, trusting that You work all things for good (Romans 8:28). If there has been sin—whether in word, deed, or neglect—we ask for repentance and reconciliation. If bitterness or resentment has taken root, uproot it, Lord, and replace it with Your peace. "Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you" (Ephesians 4:32).
We also lift up any unconfessed sin that may be hindering this marriage. If there has been infidelity, emotional or physical, we pray for true repentance and restoration. If there has been neglect, selfishness, or idolatry—whether of work, hobbies, or other relationships—we ask for conviction and change. "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge" (Hebrews 13:4).
Lord, we know that without You, this marriage cannot be saved. But with You, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26). We ask for a supernatural outpouring of Your love, grace, and mercy over this couple. May they both seek Your face, surrender their wills, and choose to fight *for* their marriage rather than *against* each other. Surround them with godly counsel—pastors, mentors, or Christian counselors who can guide them back to Your truth.
We declare that this is not the end of their story. You are the God who restores, who makes all things new (Revelation 21:5). We stand in the gap for this marriage, believing that You can turn the heart of this husband, heal the wounds of this wife, and knit them back together in love. May their home once again be a place of joy, peace, and mutual respect—a testimony to Your redeeming power.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, we pray. Amen.
