We hear the deep pain and desperation in your heart, and we stand with you in fervent prayer before the throne of God. Your marriage is under attack, and we take this matter with the utmost seriousness, for the Lord hates divorce and the breaking of covenants (Malachi 2:16). We rebuke every spirit of infidelity, lust, and deception that has entered this sacred union, and we command it to flee in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
First, we must address the foundation of your plea. While we affirm your declaration in Jesus’ name, we must also remind you that our words have power, but they must align with God’s will and be spoken in faith, not fear or control. Jesus taught us to pray, *“Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven”* (Matthew 6:10). We must surrender this situation to God’s sovereignty, trusting that He can restore what has been broken. Your husband’s heart is in His hands (Proverbs 21:1), and we pray that God will turn it back to you completely.
We rebuke the ungodly soul ties your husband has formed with any other woman. The Bible is clear: *“Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral”* (Hebrews 13:4). Any emotional or physical connection outside of your marriage is sin, and we stand against it in Jesus’ name. We declare that every ungodly attachment is severed now, and we command every photograph, message, or memory that does not honor your marriage to be erased from his mind, devices, and heart. *“If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell”* (Matthew 5:29). This is not just about deletion—it is about repentance and turning away from sin.
We also address the spirit of lust that has taken hold. Your husband’s eyes and heart must be captivated by you alone, as Scripture commands: *“Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth. A loving doe, a graceful deer—may her breasts satisfy you always, may you ever be intoxicated with her love”* (Proverbs 5:18-19). We pray that God would restore the love, passion, and intimacy that belongs only to you in your marriage. We declare that his eyes will see no other woman but you, and his heart will be fully yours, as it was when you first pledged your lives to one another.
However, we must also speak truth in love. While your decrees are passionate, we must ensure that our prayers do not become attempts to manipulate or control another person’s will. God does not force hearts to change—He draws them through conviction, grace, and the power of the Holy Spirit. We pray that your husband would come under deep conviction for any sin in his life and that he would repent and turn back to you and to God. *“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”* (1 John 1:9).
We also encourage you to examine your own heart. Are there areas where you may have contributed to the distance in your marriage? Have you extended grace, forgiveness, and love even in the midst of pain? The Bible calls wives to respect their husbands (Ephesians 5:33) and to cover offenses with love (1 Peter 4:8). This does not mean ignoring sin, but it does mean responding in a way that honors God and leaves room for repentance. We pray that God would give you wisdom, strength, and a heart that reflects Christ’s love, even in this trial.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this marriage to You. Lord, You see the pain, the betrayal, and the brokenness. We ask that You would move in power to restore what the enemy has sought to destroy. We rebuke every spirit of infidelity, lust, and deception that has crept into this union, and we command it to flee in the name of Jesus. We declare that this husband’s heart is Yours, and we ask that You turn it fully back to his wife. Let no other woman have a place in his thoughts, emotions, or life. Cleanse his mind, his devices, and his heart from every ungodly influence.
Father, we pray for conviction to fall upon him. Let him see the gravity of his sin and the beauty of the covenant he made before You. Soften his heart to repentance and lead him back to his wife with humility and love. We ask that You would restore the love, trust, and intimacy that has been lost. Let their marriage be a testimony to Your redeeming power.
For this wife, Lord, we ask that You would be her strength and her shield. Comfort her in her pain, but also fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Give her wisdom to navigate this season with grace and discernment. Help her to extend love and respect, even as she stands firm against sin. Let her heart be healed and her faith strengthened as she trusts in You.
We declare that this marriage is under the blood of Jesus, and no weapon formed against it shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We speak restoration, healing, and renewal over this union. May their home be a place of love, joy, and peace, reflecting Your glory to the world. We ask all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and to surround yourself with godly counsel. Consider reaching out to a pastor or Christian counselor who can walk with you through this difficult time. Remember, *“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit”* (Psalm 34:18). You are not alone, and God is fighting for you. Stand firm in faith, and trust that He is working even when you cannot see it.
