There is power in prayer (James 5:16)!

I believe in Jesus. I believe in prayer. I believe there is power in prayer. It’s the reason I keep coming back here to humbly request your prayers. Thank you for praying for me!

My wife left me in 2022. It was very painful for her to say to me, “I don’t love you”.

In our country, 80% of divorces are initiated by women. 90% if the woman has a college degree.

We should all pray that this nation will take marriage more seriously than it does. Please, everyone add that to your prayer life.

Let us all pray for the fathers, so many of them that have been debilitated by divorce courts by painful, often unfair, judicial decisions. Let us pray!

My wife left me. I did not leave her.

I still love her very much despite the things she has done to me. She has stabbed me in the back and hurt me deeply.

I bet I have prayed 100,000+ times (Luke 18:1ff), pleading with God for reconciliation.

So far, God has done nothing that I can see. Though, I trust that things have been done.

God has brought me back to ###. I had moved from ### to ### to start my new job and to set up our new home.

I had my sons with me. My wife and daughter were going overseas to visit family. My wife went to court and made it seem like I stole the boys. Since since, I was not there the judge ruled in her favor. I was 5k miles away.

So, my wife and a sister in Christ left ### and flew to ### and took my boys out of their classroom while I was teaching 15 yards away. I had intentionally chosen that school because of the close proximity to my boys.

I have not seen my children since.

Finally, in August 2024, God answered my prayer and took me back to ###. He gave me a job teaching school and coaching basketball.

I moved to ### with no house and no car. I was walking by faith and not by sight (2 Cor 5:7). I ended up living in a shelter for 4.5 months and in the back of my van for 28 nights.

The last year has been incredibly tough.

- Deep sadness and depression
- Loneliness
- I lost two jobs
- A job given to me, was given to another
- I almost died on 12/29 in -23 F

I could write a book about last year.

I am in such a situation that you would think that family members would be checking on me and saying, how are you doing? However, no one ever does.

I’ve been unemployed since June 16, but not one person from my family has asked me if I need any help or has sent me any money at all. My sister makes over ### as a ### and she could easily send money to me even for my birthday but nothing.

It’s so painful to me because if I had a brother sister and a summer situation, I’ll be checking on them from time to time and helping them financially speaking..

In the midst of my trials…

God has made provision for me and I’m so thankful to God. I am currently doing DoorDash, and it has blessed me tremendously. Without it, I do not know what I would do.

Dear friends in prayer warriors….

I asked you to pray for the following:

Marital reconciliation
- My wife has been horrible things to me, but I stand prepared to love her, like Christ of the church and forgive her.

Family reconciliation
- I miss my family deeply. I have missed so much of their young lives. It kills me to think of all the things that I’ve missed. I’ve always been a father that truly loved his kids.

A place to live
- on November 1, I will be homeless. I’ve been trying so hard to find a place to live. I’m confident that God will provide a place. Temperatures will soon be in the -30 to -40. I cannot live in the back of my van.

A Job
- I’m so thankful to God for DoorDash and the gig economy, but a regular more consistent job. I need a job that has benefits and sick days and a regular paycheck.

I have served God most of my adult life. I love God with all my heart. I’m so thankful for the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ, our Lord.

I am not a perfect man, but I have tried to live my life in such a way that brings glory honor to God. Every day, I wish I was perfect, but I know I never will be.

I read the psalms every month and sometimes more than once per month. I read the psalms the other day on my birthday; it’s the second time I’ve done that. I love the psalms.

I am 1000% confident that God is fully aware of my situation. I so wish he would pick me up and take me out of it. Or push a reset button on my life and let me start over. I’m so exhausted. I miss my wife insurance so badly.

God you spoke the world into existence
God you said let there be light
God you sent the big fish to get Jonah
God you raise the sun
God you sent your son

Please God help me. If not, God, please take me. Please send Elijah’s chariot to get me. I am so ready to go be with you.

 

[Articles]

We lift you up before the Father in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, knowing that He hears the cries of His children and is near to the brokenhearted. Your pain is deep—betrayal, abandonment, the loss of your wife and children, financial hardship, and the crushing weight of loneliness. Yet even in this valley, you cling to faith, and that is a testimony to God’s sustaining grace in your life. You are not forgotten by Him, though it may feel that way in this season. The psalmist cried out in similar despair, saying, *"How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?"* (Psalm 13:1, WEB). But David did not stay in that place—he chose to trust, declaring, *"But I have trusted in your loving kindness. My heart will rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, because he has been good to me"* (Psalm 13:5-6, WEB). We urge you to hold fast to this truth: God *is* good, even when His ways are beyond our understanding.

Your love for your wife, even after her betrayal, reflects the heart of Christ, who forgave even those who crucified Him. Jesus said, *"But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you"* (Matthew 5:44, WEB). You have done this faithfully, pleading for reconciliation, and we join you in praying for her heart to be softened. Yet we must also speak truth in love: reconciliation requires *two* willing hearts. You cannot force her repentance or restoration, but you can continue to surrender this to God, trusting that His will is perfect. *"The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (2 Peter 3:9, WEB). Pray for her salvation and transformation, but also pray for God to guard *your* heart from bitterness. Forgiveness does not mean what she did was acceptable—it means you release her to God’s justice and mercy, refusing to let her sins chain you to anger or despair.

The loss of your children is a grief no parent should bear. We weep with you over this injustice. The Scripture says, *"Don’t you know that you are a temple of God and that God’s Spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which is what you are"* (1 Corinthians 3:16-17, WEB). Your wife’s actions—and the unjust rulings of the courts—have torn apart what God intended to be unbroken. We pray for divine intervention in this situation. Ask God to open doors for you to reconnect with your sons, whether through legal avenues, the conviction of those involved, or supernatural breakthroughs. *"The king’s heart is in the Lord’s hand like the water streams. He turns it wherever he wants"* (Proverbs 21:1, WEB). Trust that God can turn even the hardest hearts and the most corrupt systems. In the meantime, pour out your grief to Him. He collects your tears in a bottle (Psalm 56:8) and will one day right every wrong.

Your family’s neglect cuts deeply, especially when you have shown such love and sacrifice. It is painful when those who should stand with you in trials turn away. But remember: *"Though my father and my mother have forsaken me, the Lord will take me up"* (Psalm 27:10, WEB). God is your Provider, even when humans fail. Your sister’s wealth cannot save her—only faith in Christ can. Pray for her soul, that she may see her need for God’s grace, just as you have. As for your needs, God has already shown Himself faithful through DoorDash and other provisions. He will not abandon you now. *"Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they?"* (Matthew 6:25-26, WEB). You are *infinitely* valuable to Him.

Your housing and employment struggles are real, and the approaching winter makes this urgency even greater. We pray for God to open doors for stable work and a safe place to live—*before* November 1. Ask Him for wisdom in your job search, for favor with potential employers, and for creativity in finding solutions. *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). Do not hesitate to reach out to local churches or Christian ministries for temporary help. God often works through His people. And if you must continue in the gig economy for now, pray over every delivery, asking God to multiply your efforts as He did the loaves and fishes.

We must address something with gentleness but clarity: your prayer, *"If not, God, please take me,"* reveals a weariness that we understand, but it also echoes the enemy’s lie that your life has no purpose in this suffering. Beloved, your pain is valid, but your life is *not* yours to end—it belongs to God. *"Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB). Elijah, in his despair, asked God to take his life (1 Kings 19:4), but God did not grant that request. Instead, He fed him, spoke to him in a whisper, and gave him a new mission. Your story is not over. God is still writing it, even in the chapters that feel like defeat.

You mentioned missing your wife’s insurance, but we gently remind you: your ultimate security is not in earthly provisions, but in Christ. *"Don’t lay up treasures for yourselves on the earth, where moth and rust consume, and where thieves break through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust consume, and where thieves don’t break through and steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also"* (Matthew 6:19-21, WEB). This does not mean you should not seek stability—it means your hope must be anchored in heaven, not in circumstances.

Finally, we exhort you: *keep praying*. Your persistence in prayer, even when answers tarry, is a testament to your faith. Jesus told the parable of the persistent widow to show that *"we ought always to pray, and not to give up"* (Luke 18:1, WEB). You have prayed 100,000 times—pray 100,000 more. But also *listen*. God may be speaking in ways you haven’t recognized. He may be preparing you for a ministry to others who suffer as you do. He may be refining you for a future you cannot yet see. *"For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory; while we don’t look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal"* (2 Corinthians 4:17-18, WEB).

**Our Prayer for You:**

Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother, who is weary, broken, and longing for Your intervention. Lord, You see his tears, his sleepless nights, and the depth of his love for his wife and children. You know the injustice he has suffered and the loneliness that gnaws at his soul. We ask You, in the name of Jesus, to move mightily in his situation.

First, we pray for his wife. Softening her heart, Lord. If she has hardened herself against You, convict her by Your Spirit. If she is deceived, open her eyes to the truth. If she is hurting, heal her. Bring her to repentance, not just for his sake, but for her own soul. *"Create in her a clean heart, O God. Renew a right spirit within her"* (Psalm 51:10, WEB). If reconciliation is Your will, make a way where there seems to be no way. But if it is not, grant him the grace to surrender this desire to You, trusting that Your plans for him are good.

Father, we plead for his children. Protect them, Lord. Draw them to Yourself. Break the chains of separation and bring them back into their father’s life in a way that glorifies You. Raise up advocates for him in the legal system. Expose every lie and corruption. *"Vindicate the weak and fatherless. Maintain the right of the poor and oppressed. Rescue the weak and needy. Deliver them out of the hand of the wicked"* (Psalm 82:3-4, WEB).

We pray for his family. Soften their hearts toward him. If they are blinded by pride or deception, remove the scales from their eyes. Let them see their need to support him, not just financially, but emotionally and spiritually. But even if they do not, Lord, be his Family. Surround him with brothers and sisters in Christ who will stand in the gap for him.

Provide for his every need, Lord. A home before November 1—a safe, warm place where he can rest. A job with benefits, stability, and dignity. Open doors no man can shut. *"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house, and test me now in this," says the Lord of Armies, "if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there will not be room enough for."* (Malachi 3:10, WEB). Father, we claim this promise over his life. Pour out Your blessing so abundantly that he cannot contain it.

Heal his heart, Lord. The depression, the loneliness, the exhaustion—meet him in these places. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). Fill him with Your peace that surpasses understanding. Remind him that his worth is not in his marriage, his job, or his family’s approval, but in Christ alone.

And finally, Lord, renew his strength. When he feels he cannot take another step, carry him. When he wants to give up, remind him of Your promises. *"But those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint"* (Isaiah 40:31, WEB). Give him a vision for the future, even if it looks different than he imagined. Use this season to draw him closer to You than ever before.

We rebuke the spirit of despair, loneliness, and hopelessness in Jesus’ name. We declare that our brother is *more than a conqueror* through Christ who loves him (Romans 8:37). No weapon formed against him will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). You, Lord, are his Defender, his Provider, his Healer, and his Redeemer.

We thank You in advance for the miracles You are about to perform in his life. May he look back on this season and see Your hand at work in ways he cannot yet imagine. Strengthen his faith. Surround him with Your presence. And let him know, beyond any doubt, that You have *not* forgotten him.

In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord, we pray. Amen.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[hostadmin]

We remain deeply grateful that you entrusted us with the weight of your heart in prayer, and we have continued to lift you, your marriage, your children, and your needs before the Lord with earnestness and faith. The raw honesty of your pain—the betrayal, the separation from your children, the loneliness, the financial struggles, and the longing for reconciliation—has moved us to pray with even greater urgency for God’s intervention in your life. You are not forgotten, and your suffering has not gone unnoticed by our Heavenly Father, who collects every tear you’ve shed in a bottle (Psalm 56:8).

We stand in awe of your perseverance through this storm. Living in your van, facing homelessness, battling depression, and yet still declaring your trust in God’s provision is a testament to your faith. Your willingness to forgive your wife, despite the deep wounds she has inflicted, reflects the heart of Christ, who forgave us while we were still sinners. We pray that God would strengthen you even more in this, that He would guard your heart against bitterness, and that He would soften your wife’s heart toward reconciliation. We ask the Lord to break any hardness in her spirit and to draw her back to Him—and to you—in a way only He can orchestrate. May He restore what the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25), not just in your marriage, but in your family, your finances, and your emotional well-being.

We have also been praying for your children, that God would protect their hearts and minds during this season of separation. We ask that He would open doors for you to be reunited with them, that He would give you favor in the eyes of those in authority, and that He would provide a way for you to be the father He has called you to be. Your love for them is evident, and we trust that God, who is the ultimate Father, will honor your faithfulness as their earthly father.

Your need for stable housing and employment weighs heavily on our hearts. We declare over you the promise in Philippians 4:19, that *our God will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in Christ Jesus.* We pray for divine connections, for doors to swing wide open for a job with benefits, and for a safe, warm place to live before November 1. We ask God to provide in such a way that there is no mistaking His hand in it, that your faith would be strengthened, and that others would see His goodness through your testimony.

Brother, we grieve with you over the silence of your family. It is heartbreaking to walk through such trials alone, but we want you to know that you are *not* alone. We are here, standing with you in the gap, and more importantly, Jesus is with you. He is closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24), and He feels your pain. We pray that God would surround you with His presence in such a tangible way that you sense His comfort even in the quietest moments. May He send people into your life who will reflect His love practically—whether through encouragement, financial help, or simply being present with you in this valley.

We are also lifted by your gratitude, even in suffering. Your acknowledgment of God’s provision through DoorDash and your trust in His timing are a beautiful example of worship in the wilderness. Like David, you have turned to the Psalms in your distress, and we pray that God would continue to speak to you through His Word, reminding you that He is your shelter, your provider, and your hope.

If God has moved in any of these areas—whether through a glimmer of hope in your marriage, a breakthrough with your children, a job opportunity, or a place to live—we would be overjoyed to hear your praise report. If the silence feels deafening and the burden still heavy, we urge you to post again. We are not done praying. We will continue to storm the gates of heaven on your behalf, believing that God is at work even when we cannot see it.

May the Lord bless you with His peace that surpasses understanding. May He renew your strength like the eagle’s (Isaiah 40:31) and fill you with the assurance that He is fighting for you, even now. We love you, brother, and we are honored to stand with you in this fight.

In Jesus’ mighty and compassionate name.
