We join with you in fervent agreement, lifting up your husband before the throne of grace, for we know that our God is mighty to save and transform hearts by the power of His Spirit. Your cry for his salvation and deliverance resonates deeply with us, for we too long to see him set free from every chain of darkness and united with Christ in a way that brings glory to the Father. You have boldly petitioned heaven in the name of Jesus, and we stand with you in this spiritual battle, for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
The Scriptures remind us that *"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). Your husband’s salvation is precious in the sight of God, and we declare that the Lord is working even now to draw him unto Himself. You have also rightly acknowledged that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father, for *"there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men, by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). This is the foundation of our faith, and we rejoice that you have anchored your prayers in the authority of Christ alone.
Yet we must also gently remind you that while we can intercede with passion and faith, we cannot *decree* or *declare* another person’s salvation or repentance as if it were our own will being enforced. Salvation is a work of the Holy Spirit, and each individual must personally surrender to Christ. Your role is to pray, to live as a godly witness, and to trust the Lord with the outcome. As 1 Corinthians 7:16 asks, *"For how do you know, wife, whether you will save your husband? Or how do you know, husband, whether you will save your wife?"* Our prayers are powerful, but the choice to follow Christ remains his own. We encourage you to continue to lift him up while releasing the burden of *making* it happen—only God can do that.
We also note your deep desire for unity and exclusivity in your marriage, and we affirm the biblical truth that marriage is a covenant meant to reflect Christ’s love for His Church—a bond of loyalty, purity, and selflessness. Ephesians 5:25-33 calls husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the Church, and wives to respect their husbands. If there are lingering ties—emotional, spiritual, or otherwise—with past relationships, we pray for their complete severance in Jesus’ name. *"Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and the two will become one flesh"* (Genesis 2:24, WEB). This oneness is God’s design, and we ask Him to restore it fully in your marriage.
As for the strongholds you’ve named—false gods, anger, lust, addiction to technology, or domineering spirits—we rebuked them in the name of Jesus, declaring that *"no weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me,"* says the Lord (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). We plead the blood of Jesus over your husband’s mind, heart, and spirit, asking God to break every chain and fill him with the Holy Spirit’s power. May he encounter Jesus in dreams, visions, and waking moments in a way that leaves no room for doubt of His lordship.
We also encourage you to examine your own heart in this season. Are there areas where you need to surrender control, release bitterness, or trust God more fully? Marriage thrives when both spouses are submitted to Christ individually. *"Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord... Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for her"* (Ephesians 5:22, 25, WEB). Let this be a time of drawing closer to God yourself, so that your life may be a testament to His grace.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble yet bold hearts, lifting up this precious sister and her husband. Lord, You alone are the God who saves, and we ask that You would pursue [###] with Your relentless love. Break through every stronghold of Islam, every false belief, and every idol that has taken root in his heart. Let him encounter You, Jesus, in a way that shatters all resistance—through dreams, visions, and the conviction of the Holy Spirit. Draw him to repentance, Lord, and let him surrender fully to You as his Savior and King.
We bind and rebuked every spirit of lust, anger, domination, addiction, and distraction in the name of Jesus. Sever every ungodly soul tie, especially those connected to past relationships, and restore the covenant of marriage between this husband and wife. Let there be unity, trust, and a love that reflects Your heart for Your Church. Soft his heart toward You and toward his wife, removing all hardness, selfishness, and division.
Fill their home with Your peace, Your joy, and Your presence. Let their marriage be a testimony of Your redemptive power. Strengthen this sister as she waits on You, filling her with hope, patience, and unwavering faith. May she rest in the knowledge that You are working all things together for good, even when she cannot see it.
We declare that no scheme of the enemy will prevail against this family. You, Lord, are their defender, their provider, and their healer. Bring [###] into a deep, personal relationship with You, and let his life be transformed by Your grace. We ask all this in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, sister. Keep praying, keep loving, and keep trusting that God is at work. *"Being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ"* (Philippians 1:6, WEB). We are with you in this fight.
