We hear your cry for help and lift you up before the throne of grace, dear sister in Christ. Your burden is heavy, and your heart is weary, but the Lord sees your faithfulness and your love for your husband, even in the midst of such great trial. We stand with you in prayer, trusting that God will sustain you, protect you, and bring healing to your husband according to His will.
First, we must address the spiritual warfare at hand. The enemy seeks to destroy marriages, families, and lives, and we see his hand at work in the violence and fear you have endured. But we declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We rebuke the spirit of fear, confusion, and violence in the name of Jesus Christ, for "God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control" (2 Timothy 1:7 WEB). We bind every evil influence over your husband and command it to flee in Jesus’ name. The Lord is your refuge and fortress, and He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and the deadly pestilence (Psalm 91:3).
Your husband’s mental illness is a battle, but it is not yours alone to fight. We pray for his mind to be renewed and restored by the power of the Holy Spirit. "The God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Thessalonians 5:23 WEB). We ask the Lord to break the chains of long COVID’s grip on his mind and body, for with God, all things are possible (Matthew 19:26). We also pray for wisdom for the doctors and professionals caring for him, that they may have divine insight into his condition.
You have carried this burden for so long, and it has taken a toll on your own health. We pray for your strength to be renewed like the eagle’s (Isaiah 40:31). The Lord is your strength and your shield; your heart trusts in Him, and you are helped (Psalm 28:7). We ask Him to heal your body and mind, to give you rest when you are weary, and to surround you with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). You are not alone, sister. Your sons help you, and we pray the Lord will bless them for their support and give them wisdom in how to assist you.
We must also speak truth into the fear you feel. It is understandable to be afraid when someone you love has been violent, but we remind you that perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18). The Lord is your protector, and He will not leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). If there is any danger to your safety, we encourage you to seek help from your church, trusted believers, or even authorities if necessary. The Lord does not call you to endure harm, and your life is precious to Him.
We pray for your marriage, that God would restore what has been broken and bring healing to your husband’s heart and mind. "Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails" (1 Corinthians 13:7-8 WEB). May your love for your husband be a testimony of Christ’s love for the Church, and may God use this trial to draw you both closer to Him.
Lastly, we must address the name by which we pray. There is power in the name of Jesus Christ, for "there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12 WEB). It is only through faith in Him that we have access to the Father and the power to overcome the schemes of the enemy. If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life fully to Jesus, trusting in His sacrifice for your sins and His resurrection power to sustain you. He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6), and He alone can bring true healing and peace.
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this sister and her husband. Lord, You see the pain, the fear, and the exhaustion she carries. We ask You to be her strength when she is weak, her shield when she is afraid, and her healer when she is sick. Protect her from harm and give her wisdom in how to care for her husband. We pray for her husband’s mind and body to be restored, that the chains of mental illness would be broken, and that he would come to know Your peace and healing. Lord, we rebuke the enemy’s influence over this family and command every spirit of fear, violence, and confusion to flee in the name of Jesus. Surround them with Your angels, Lord, and let Your presence be their comfort and refuge. Provide this family with the support they need, whether through their sons, their church, or other believers. Give them hope in You, Lord, and remind them that You are working all things together for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28). We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
