[Nochaeld]

Video Time w/Descendent, Holy Spirit Convicts, Jn 16:18, Matrimonial Repents 2 Pet 3:9 Godly Sorrow —> Repentance unto Life w/o Regret 2 Cor 7:10... Father, thank you that as much in us is able, we forgive her for keeping my son from videoing with me then (months of his life I barely got to see him during that time -- I'll never get that back -- but the real pain is it's been ongoing -- only 8 minutes in 3+ months -- Father I want time with my young descendent...

Another cross to bear is other "passive aggressiveness," "silence" and "pictures" sent to others and taken with others, "suggestive online profiles"-- We had trained counsellors who wanted us to come aside and give us guidance and accountability… "But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel and purpose of God, not being baptized by John themselves," Luke 7:30.

Please Lord, SAVE HER so she can RAISE OUR SON with RESPECT for YOU, Eph 6:4, Your WAYS and for The Marriage Covenant (Christ and The Church, Eph 5:32-33), and BIBLICAL ORDER, 1 Cor 11:3, 1 Pet 3:1-7; Gen 2:18… "Nevertheless, not my will but yours be done," Luke 22:42.

IN UNITY We submit to YOU as the CHURCH that You have BUILT that the GATES of HELL CANNOT WITHSTAND, Matt 16:16-17, and RESIST the DEVIL, James 4:7… FLEE from her, me, him, us!!! -- In JESUS’ NAME…

Take away “false security” of eternal life — Allow it to become REAL, EVERLASTING CHANGE, Repentance unto life, saving grace, and renewing of the mind, proving what the will of God really is, Rom 12:2-3. Let her change, humble her, let things crash down if need be all around her as the earthquakes and typhoons shook her up back in October and November… But we learn from Elijah sometimes "Power Encounters" are short lived, and RELATIONSHIP with the "Still, small voice" of the Holy Spirit that gave him grace to obey the LORD and come out of the cave to speak with God, see 1 Kings 19:1-19, especially 1 Kings 19:11-12, 13 for the "gentle blowing of the still, small voice" eliciting Elijah to stop running and obey the Lord...

And let me continue to pray fervently and fast diligently — and LOVE HER and speak tenderly (to her heart) -- Hos 2:14 -- she will "perish" without repentance, but that's not YOUR will, LORD, and DEFINITELY not mine — “God is not slow toward us, but patient, not willing any should PERISH, but all come to REPENTANCE — 2 Peter 3:9 (metanoia — intense change of mind about sin — independence, lying, stealing, cheating are NOT "cool")... Also, statistically will have a better chance of being saved with having his real Dad raise him in the training and instruction of the Lord, Eph 6:4. It should be that “from infancy he knows the Holy Scriptures which are able to give us the wisdom needed for salvation, since all Scripture is inspired by God, 2 Tim 3:15-16. Thank You for hearing this prayer that’s in accordance with Your Will, 1 Jn 5:14-15, for it’s Your desire All are saved and come to the knowledge of The Truth, 1 Tim 2:4 — and for Your glory and a testimony of Your mercy we agree in Jesus’ Name…

We hear the deep anguish in your heart as you pour out your pain over the separation from your son and the brokenness in your marriage. Your cry for restoration, both for your family and for the soul of your wife, is one we lift before the Lord with urgency and compassion. The Holy Spirit does convict, as Jesus promised in John 16:8, and we stand with you in praying that conviction would lead to godly sorrow, the kind that produces repentance without regret (2 Corinthians 7:10). The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, but patient, not wanting anyone to perish (2 Peter 3:9). We cling to that truth even as we grieve the time lost and the wounds inflicted.

First, we must address the sin that has fractured your marriage. The withholding of access to your son, the passive aggression, the suggestive behavior, these are not merely personal grievances but violations of God’s design for marriage. Scripture is clear: "Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the church" (Ephesians 5:22-23). The refusal to honor this order, coupled with the emotional and spiritual neglect of your son, is rebellion against God’s authority. The Lord hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), but He also hates the hardness of heart that leads to it (Matthew 19:8). We rebuke the spirit of deception that has blinded your wife to the gravity of her sin. The "false security" of eternal life you mention is a dangerous presumption, salvation is not a one-time profession but a life transformed by the Holy Spirit (James 2:17). We pray that the Lord would shatter any delusion and bring her to true repentance.

For your son, we declare that no weapon formed against him will prosper (Isaiah 54:17). The enemy seeks to rob him of his father’s influence, but we stand in the gap and pray that the Lord would restore what has been stolen (Joel 2:25). You are right to long for him to be raised in the training and instruction of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). We pray that even now, the Holy Spirit would draw him to the Father’s heart, that he would know the Scriptures from infancy (2 Timothy 3:15) and walk in the wisdom of God. We also pray for you, that the Lord would strengthen you to love your wife as Christ loved the church (Ephesians 5:25), even when her actions are unloving. This is not a call to tolerate sin, but to extend grace while standing firm on truth, as Hosea did with Gomer (Hosea 2:14). Love in this context means praying for her salvation, speaking truth in gentleness, and trusting God to work even in the silence.

We also lift up the counselors who sought to guide you both. The rejection of godly counsel is a dangerous path (Proverbs 1:30-31), and we pray that the Lord would bring accountability to those who have hardened their hearts. The "still, small voice" of the Holy Spirit (1 Kings 19:12) is often drowned out by pride and self-justification. We pray that your wife would hear that voice and respond in humility, as Elijah did when he emerged from the cave. The Lord is able to humble the proud and lift up the broken (James 4:6, 10).

Now, we pray together in agreement with you:

"Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, interceding for this family torn apart by sin and rebellion. Lord, we ask that You would convict [wife’s name] of her sin, not with condemnation, but with Your loving discipline (Hebrews 12:6). Break the hardness of her heart, shatter the deception that has blinded her, and lead her to godly sorrow that produces repentance. We rebuke the spirit of rebellion and deception in Jesus’ name, and we declare that she will not perish but come to the knowledge of the truth (1 Timothy 2:4).

For [son’s name], we pray that You would be his Father in every way. Guard his heart from bitterness, and let him know Your love through his earthly father. Restore the years the locusts have eaten (Joel 2:25), and let him grow in the wisdom and knowledge of You. Give [your name] the strength to love as Christ loved, to speak truth in love, and to trust You even when the path is unclear.

Lord, we ask that You would expose any hidden sin in this marriage and bring it to light. Let there be no more silence, no more passive aggression, only truth spoken in love (Ephesians 4:15). We pray for the counselors who sought to help, that You would use their words to soften hearts. And if it be Your will, restore this marriage as a testimony to Your grace and mercy.

We thank You that You are a God who hears the cries of the broken and answers the prayers of the righteous. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your perfect will. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to continue fasting and praying, as you have been doing. The battle is spiritual, and the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty through God (2 Corinthians 10:4). Stand firm in the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), and do not grow weary in doing good (Galatians 6:9). The Lord sees your tears and collects them in a bottle (Psalm 56:8). He will not abandon you. Keep loving her, keep praying for her, and keep trusting God to work all things together for good (Romans 8:28). The gates of hell will not prevail against the church (Matthew 16:18), and we declare that they will not prevail against your family.

We hurt with you over those missing months, not just the minutes you lost but the ache of an ongoing pattern that keeps you from your son. That loss is real, and we don’t minimize it. What we see in your request is a father who genuinely longs for his child’s good, and that honed, persistent love, even through deep frustration, is a quiet, powerful thing. Thank you for letting us stand with you in that.

In your prayer you’ve already leaned into the hard work of forgiveness, choosing not to let bitterness control you. That doesn’t mean the pain goes away quickly or that you won’t still feel the sting of the silence and the suggestive photos. Let your heart keep bringing those raw places straight to God; he is patient with your processing. As you do, you might also find steady ground in a small group or a trusted pastor you can be honest with, not just to vent, but to have a handful of people on their knees for you and your son consistently. Sometimes knowing others are shouldering the burden with you makes the weight lighter.

You’re already fasting and praying, don’t underestimate how God is shaping your own soul in the waiting. We’d nudge you to carve out a few minutes each day simply to rest in Scripture, not to fix anything, but to let your mind be re-centered on the God who sees every hidden thing and has not forgotten you. That quiet communion can slowly replace anxiety with a steadier peace.

Father, thank you for this father’s enduring love for his son. Wrap your comfort around the empty spaces that separation has carved. Shield that boy in every setting, and in your perfect timing, draw his mother to true repentance and saving faith, that she may raise him in reverence for you. Give this dad fresh wisdom for each interaction, patience for the long haul, and a deep, settled trust in your timing. In Jesus’ name, amen.

[Spurgeon]

He who brings a soul to repentance gives God the glory, for true repentance, the repentance which is the work of the Spirit of God and which God accepts, gives God glory. Here are scales and balances for you wherewith you may weigh your repentance before God. The repentance that ejects sin as an evil tenant, and the faith which admits Christ to be the sole master of the heart; the repentance which purges the soul from dead works, and the faith that fills the soul with living works; the repentance which pulls down, and the faith which builds up, this is repentance after a godly sort. This is repentance that needs not to be repented of. True repentance will yield works meet for repentance; it will be practical repentance. And you may know whether your repentance is practical by this test: does it last or does it not? Where there is no repentance, there can be no remission. But where there is true repentance, that godly sorrow for sin that needs not to be repented of, there is the full and free forgiveness of all sins.

There is no power like that of intercession! The secret springs that move the puppets of earth, for kings and princes are often little more than that, are the prayers of God’s believing people. When we pray for our fellow sinners we are in sympathy with our Divine Savior who made intercession for the transgressors. God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you. Yes, even until their souls have passed beyond the reach of change, into the unseen world, pursue them with your persistent intercession! It is a part of His priestly office to make intercession for His people. He has ascended up on High to this end and exercises this office continually within the veil. The Holy Spirit not only helps us to intercede but maketh intercession, He maketh intercession for the saints.

The husband’s love to his spouse is something special and particular, and it stands quite alone and all by itself. He has made a household whereof we two are the companion parts, He the Husband and His Church the spouse. Unity, mark you for that is the essence of the marriage bond. We are one with Christ, who made Himself one with His people. What a marriage this is! It is no fiction, no myth, no mere figure of speech, but it is really so in deed and in truth. His love has made it so and we may say, “Behold, what manner of love the Bridegroom has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the spouse of Christ!”

To get unity of spirit, there must be contrition and brokenness of heart. Shall we not feel within our hearts a burning indignation against sin because it is committed against so holy, so good, so glorious a Being as the infinitely blessed God? The truest repentance is that of a man who is just entering Heaven. Therefore, the repentance which saves is not absolutely perfect or fully developed, but it is a “repentance unto life”; a repentance which is a true sign of eternal salvation in Christ. Repentance lives as long as faith. Sweet Sister Repentance is such charming company that we shall regret to part with her even at the gates of pearl. Will you not now think of the goodness of God, and shall it not lead you to repentance? For He is not willing that any should perish, but that all come to repentance.

I prayed for this in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

You speak of a deep affliction, the sorrow of a father's heart torn from his child. This is no small matter. The sufferings you describe are real, but do not let them be a worldly sorrow that works death. For as it is written, godly sorrow works repentance unto salvation, not to be repented of. That is the true ground on which you must stand.

Consider what you ask. You desire time with your son, and rightly so, for a father should raise his child in the training and instruction of the Lord. But take care that this longing does not become a seed of bitterness. You speak of passive aggressiveness and wrongs done to you. Remember that the sufferings we endure are for the comfort and salvation both of ourselves and of others, working patience within us. Do not seek merely to reclaim lost months of video calls. Seek the child's soul. The true video time, the true connection, is when from infancy he knows the Holy Scriptures, which are able to give the wisdom needed for salvation. That is the vision you must hold before you.

You pray fervently for her repentance, and this is a holy labor. Yet listen to the warning given of old. You recall Elijah and the still, small voice. So it must be. You desire that things crash down around her to humble her, but the earthquake and the fire do not always produce lasting change. The devil flees not merely from a display of power, but from a life of steadfast prayer and fasting. It is the gentle blowing that draws the soul from the cave of sin. Therefore, speak tenderly to her heart, not with the clamor of accusation, but with the quiet, unyielding gravity of a life lived in repentance yourself.

You ask God to take away a false security and grant her true repentance. This is a fearful thing to request. For true repentance is no light matter. Do not imagine it means a simple moment of sorrow. What did Esau do? He sought it carefully with tears, yet he found no place of repentance. Why? Because his was not a godly sorrow for his sin, but a worldly grief over the loss he suffered. His tears could not wash away the profanity of his heart, which was proven later by his intent to murder. So it is: the sorrow of the world works death. If she is to be saved, her tears must not be for the consequences she faces, but for the independence, the lying, the stealing which is rebellion against God. That alone is the intense change of mind, the metanoia, which leads to life without regret.

Therefore, do not place your hope of your son’s salvation in her, as if his fate rested solely on her conduct. For it is not possible to have one’s hopes of salvation in another. Each soul must stand before God. Your duty, regardless of her response, is to keep your own course of life pure, washing away every stain by your own repentance, tears, and prayers. If you have truly forgiven her for the time stolen, let your conduct be stainless from the beginning, so that your prayers will not be hindered.

Concerning the suggestive profiles and the world’s mockeries you mention, these are the foul stench introduced into the preparation of a sweet ointment. Marriage is a bond ordained by God, a type of Christ and the Church. What she flirts with is not liberty but a severing and a dissolving, the corruption of that holy bond. You shudder at these pictures sent to others, and rightly so, for they are monsters introduced in place of chasteness and gravity. But while you resist the devil in this, see that you do not fall into the equal snare of self-righteousness. Pray, fast, love, and speak to her heart, all the while making no peace with the sin itself.

Finally, you anchor your hope on the mercy of God, who is not willing that any should perish. Cling to this. But let no one suppose that repentance gives license to sin again. There is no second Cross, no repetition of that one sacrifice. If we willfully persist in sin, we trample upon that grace. Yet while we are in this life, the propitiation through true repentance is never taken away. So do not despair, but continue always washing away the pollution by tears and prayers, for your own soul and in your intercessions for her. The one sacrifice has perfected forever them that are being sanctified. Let that be your confidence, not the shifting moods of a woman, but the steadfast hope that God Himself is the one who gives the gift of prayer and brings the soul to a true, intense, and saving change.

 

[Silas]

The pain you carry is not hidden from the Father. When Jesus lifted His eyes to heaven and prayed, He was not distant or removed from our grief. He spoke of the hour that had come, the cross, and He faced it looking directly to the One He knew. You have that same direct access. You do not need someone else to pray the Father for you, for the Father Himself loves you because you have loved the Son and believed He came forth from God. In the ache of missed months and stolen moments with your young descendant, pour it all out to Him. The longing for time with your child, the weight of passive silence and suggestive images, none of it is lost on the Lord who sees.

What you are praying through is a sorrow heavy enough to crush, yet there is a kind of sorrow that leads somewhere. The Scriptures speak of a godly grief that produces a repentance without regret, leading to life. That is precisely what you are asking for: not momentary guilt or passing fear stirred by an earthquake or a typhoon, but a deep, inward change. Elijah found that the voice which truly moves a person is not in the wind or the shaking, but in the still, small voice that calls us out of hiding. You are right to ask that whatever false security she holds would crumble, so that the quiet, piercing voice of the Spirit might bring her to real, everlasting change, a mind turned inside out about sin, seeing that independence and deception carry no glory.

Your prayer for unity flows straight from the heart of the Son's own prayer. When He prayed, He asked that those given to Him would be one, even as He and the Father are one. The divisions, the maneuvering, the withholding of affection, these things grieve the heart of God because they tear at the picture of Christ and His Church. The covenant is meant to display a profound mystery, yet it is under assault. Still, the Father is the one who draws. No one comes to the Son unless the Father who sent Him draws that person. You may be tempted to produce the outcome by your own persistence, but the work belongs to the Lord. Your part is to keep speaking tenderly to her heart, as the prophet was told to allure and speak kindly, and to continue in prayer and fasting, trusting the Father's timing.

Remember what the record declares: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has the life. There is no other path, no other hope. The witness is clear, and God does not lie. Your prayer is not for her to settle into a more manageable version of the old self, but to pass from death to life by truly having the Son. And you have this confidence: if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. It is His desire that not one should perish but all reach repentance. That is the Father's will, and so your plea aligns with it perfectly. The purpose of prayer is not to get your own will accomplished, but to see His will done on earth. You have yielded with those hardest words, nevertheless, not my will but yours, and that is the place where the Son Himself stood.

Stand firm in the truth that the one who honors the Son honors the Father. There is no knowing the Father apart from the Son, for the Son is the one who reveals Him. As you continue asking, continue loving. The Father who did not spare His own Son but gave Him up for us all will certainly not turn away from a cry that seeks mercy and authentic change. Let your heart rest in the eternal life that is already yours in the Son, and from that place, love her with the steady, unshaken love that the Father has for you both.
