We lift up your heartfelt concerns for your ### and her marriage, knowing that God’s Word speaks powerfully to the brokenness and sin at play here. The Lord sees the abuse, the manipulation, and the pain in this situation, and He calls us to pray for truth, repentance, and restoration—while also setting godly boundaries where necessary.
First, we grieve with you over the abuse your ### endures. Scripture is clear that a husband is to love his wife as Christ loved the church, sacrificially and without harshness (Ephesians 5:25–29). Instead, this man’s behavior reflects the destructive pride of narcissism, which the Bible warns against: *"Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall"* (Proverbs 16:18). Abuse—whether physical, emotional, or spiritual—is an affront to God’s design for marriage. We pray that the Lord would expose this man’s sin, bring him to repentance, and either transform his heart or remove your ### from harm’s way. If she is in danger, we urge her to seek safety through trusted Christian counselors, pastors, or organizations that can help her escape abuse. The Lord does not call women to endure ongoing harm in the name of submission (1 Peter 3:1–6 is about a *godly* husband, not an abusive one).
At the same time, we must address the hardness in your ### own heart. Narcissism in her—whether learned or inherent—is also sinful. Scripture warns, *"Do not be deceived: God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap"* (Galatians 6:7). Her manipulation and disregard for you and your parents are not only painful but dishonoring to the Lord. While we are called to love and pray for her, we must also recognize that enabling her sinful patterns does not help her. Jesus said, *"If your brother sins against you, rebuke him. If he repents, forgive him"* (Luke 17:3). This may mean setting firm, loving boundaries to protect your family from being used, while still leaving the door open for reconciliation if she humbles herself.
Here is our prayer for you all:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts for this ### and her marriage. Lord, You hate the violence and pride that have taken root in this home. We ask You to intervene—break the chains of narcissism and abuse in her husband’s life. Convict him of his sin, and if he refuses to repent, we pray You would make a way for our ### to escape safely. Soften her heart, Lord, that she may see her own sin and turn from manipulation and pride. Give her wisdom to seek help, whether through godly counsel, separation, or legal protection if needed.
Father, we also lift up this family who has been wounded by her actions. Grant them discernment to love her without enabling her sin. Show them how to set boundaries that reflect Your truth, not bitterness. Heal their hearts from the pain of being used and ignored. May they forgive as You have forgiven us, but also walk in wisdom.
Most of all, Lord, we pray for salvation and transformation. If our ### or her husband do not know You, draw them to the cross. Let them see their need for Jesus, who alone can break the power of sin. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Redeemer and Healer. Amen."*
Lastly, we encourage you to seek support for yourself and your parents. Carrying this burden alone can lead to resentment or exhaustion. A pastor or biblical counselor can help you navigate how to love your ### while guarding your own hearts. Remember, *"Cast all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you"* (1 Peter 5:7). The Lord sees your pain and will sustain you as you trust in Him.

We're here with you, sister, lifting up your sister and her marriage to our loving Father. We've been praying for truth, repentance, and healing in their relationship, just as the first reply mentioned. But we also want to encourage you to trust in God's unfailing love and wisdom, even in the face of such hurt and confusion.
We've been asking God to soften both their hearts, to help them see the pain and destruction their actions are causing. We're believing for a breakthrough, that He would convict them of their sins and draw them both to repentance and forgiveness. We're also praying for protection and wisdom for your sister, that she would recognize the danger she's in and seek safety and help from trusted Christian sources.
But we also want to remind you that God sees your pain too. It's okay to feel hurt and frustrated. It's okay to set boundaries to protect yourself and your parents. In fact, it's important. Jesus said, "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:31). Loving yourself means knowing when to step back and protect your own heart.
We're here for you, sister. We're praying for peace and strength for you and your family. We're believing for a miracle, that God would heal and restore not just your sister's marriage, but also the relationships within your family. We're trusting that God will use this situation to draw all of you closer to Him.
Remember, God is always with you. He sees your tears and hears your cries. Trust in Him, and let Him sustain you through this trial. As Psalm 147:3 reminds us, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."
