We hear the urgency and deep longing in your heart for your husband’s salvation and transformation, and we join you in crying out to the Lord on his behalf. Your passion for his deliverance is evident, and we stand with you in faith, knowing that nothing is impossible for our God. The Scriptures remind us in **Ezekiel 36:26**, *"I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you. I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh."* This is the work only the Lord can do, and we trust Him to move mightily in your husband’s life.
Your prayer is bold and specific, and we commend you for seeking the Lord with such fervency. However, we must gently remind you that while we can—and should—pray with authority and persistence, we must also surrender to God’s perfect timing and will. He alone knows the heart and the exact moment when your husband will be most receptive to His conviction. **2 Peter 3:9** assures us, *"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."*
We also notice that you have used placeholders (###) in place of your husband’s name. While we understand the desire for privacy, there is power in speaking his name before the Lord. If you feel led, we encourage you to pray for him by name in your personal prayers, claiming the authority we have in Christ over his life. The name of Jesus is the only name by which we are saved, and it is by His name alone that we can approach the throne of God with our petitions. **Acts 4:12** declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* Your faith in praying in Jesus’ name is foundational, and we rejoice that you are anchoring your requests in Him.
Now, let us address some of the specific strongholds you’ve mentioned in your prayer. First, we praise God that you are seeking his deliverance from the false teachings and spiritual bondage of Islam. The Bible is clear that there is only one true God, and He has revealed Himself through His Son, Jesus Christ. **1 Timothy 2:5** states, *"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus."* Any belief system that denies Christ as the Son of God and the only path to salvation is a deception from the enemy. We pray that the Lord will open your husband’s eyes to the truth of the Gospel, that he may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God. **Acts 26:18** reminds us of this very transformation, and we claim it over him now.
You’ve also mentioned the need for deliverance from lust, sexual sin, pornography, and perversion. These are serious strongholds that the enemy uses to ensnare many, but we serve a God who is greater. **1 Corinthians 6:18** commands, *"Flee sexual immorality! 'Every sin that a man does is outside the body,' but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body."* And **1 John 1:9** offers hope: *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."* We pray that the Lord will break every chain of sexual sin in your husband’s life and replace his desires with a hunger for righteousness. May he be washed clean by the blood of Jesus and filled with the Holy Spirit, who will empower him to walk in purity.
The issue of soul ties with his ex-wife and other women is another critical area. Soul ties are ungodly emotional or spiritual bonds that can linger even after a relationship has ended. **1 Corinthians 7:39** tells us that a wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives, and we pray that the Lord will sever any ungodly connections your husband may still have with his past. We ask that the Lord would restore his heart to you alone, his wife, and that he would be fully devoted to the covenant of marriage as God intended. **Genesis 2:24** says, *"Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh."* May your husband embrace this truth and cherish the sacred bond of marriage with you.
You’ve also mentioned his struggle with being on his mobile phone and social media excessively, as well as spirits of control, domination, and workaholism. These can be manifestations of deeper spiritual issues, such as idolatry (placing anything above God) or a lack of surrender to the Lordship of Christ. **Colossians 3:5** warns, *"Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry."* We pray that the Lord will convict your husband of any area where he has allowed these things to take precedence over his relationship with God and with you. May he find his satisfaction in Christ alone and be freed from the need to control or dominate, instead embracing the humility and servant-heartedness modeled by Jesus.
Finally, we want to encourage you to continue standing in faith, but also to examine your own heart in this season. Are there areas where you may need to forgive your husband or release bitterness? **Ephesians 4:31-32** instructs us, *"Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."* While you are praying for his transformation, ask the Lord to also refine you and prepare you to be the wife He has called you to be. A marriage thrives when both partners are surrendered to Christ and walking in obedience to His Word.
Now, let us pray together for your husband:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious sister’s husband to You. Lord, You are the God who sees and knows all things. You see the desperation in her heart, and You hear her cries for her husband’s salvation and deliverance. Father, we ask that You would move in his life in a way that is undeniable—a supernatural encounter with Jesus Christ that leaves him forever changed. Lord, appear to him in dreams and visions, just as You did for so many in the Bible. Let him see Your glory, Your holiness, and Your love in a way that shatters every stronghold and brings him to his knees in repentance.
We pray, Lord, that You would completely and permanently destroy every false Islamic god, idol, and teaching that has taken root in his heart and mind. Break the chains of deception and replace them with the truth of Your Word. Let him know beyond a shadow of a doubt that Jesus Christ is the only way, the only truth, and the only life. Fill him with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and let that Spirit convict him of all sin, righteousness, and judgment. Bring him to a place of sincere, heartfelt repentance, where he turns away from every wickedness and surrenders his life to You.
Father, we ask that You would sever every ungodly soul tie he has with his ex-wife and any other woman. Cut these ties by the power of the blood of Jesus and restore his heart to his wife alone. Let him be fully devoted to her, loving her as Christ loves the Church. Remove every trace of lust, sexual sin, pornography, and perversion from his life. Cleanse his mind, his heart, and his body, and give him a hatred for sin and a love for righteousness. Let him walk in purity and holiness, empowered by Your Spirit.
Lord, we also pray that You would break the spirits of control, domination, and workaholism in his life. Soften his heart and teach him to lead with love, humility, and gentleness. Deliver him from the distraction of his mobile phone and social media, and help him to prioritize his relationship with You and with his wife above all else. Let him be a man who seeks Your kingdom first, trusting that all these things will be added to him.
Father, we ask for miracles and wonders in his life—supernatural signs that leave no doubt of Your presence and power. Soften his heart, Lord, and draw him to Yourself. Let him experience the depth of Your love and the weight of Your glory. Make him the man You created him to be: a faithful, loyal, and committed husband who loves his wife as Christ loves the Church.
We also lift up this sister, Lord. Strengthen her faith and fill her with Your peace as she waits on You. Guard her heart from bitterness or despair, and let her trust in Your perfect timing. Equip her to be a godly wife, walking in love, patience, and wisdom. Let her life be a testimony of Your grace and faithfulness.
We declare all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Let Your will be done in this marriage, and let Your name be glorified. Amen.
