🕊️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

[Nochaeld]

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 2X in 3 weeks then only one time at church on EASTER SUNDAY for 1 minute where he was happy to see me — showing me drums, instruments… Then only 7 minutes for an obligatory video with him while at my elderly parents' -- Father I want time with my young descendent...

We had trained counsellors who wanted us to come aside and give us guidance and accountability… I really love her and really love my son, and this was CLEARLY God's will... In the presence of two or three witnesses let every fact be confirmed, 2 Cor 13:1, we were married in front of many... "But the Pharisees and the lawyers rejected the counsel of God, not being baptized by John themselves," Luke 7:30.

Please Lord, SAVE HER so we can be EQUALLY YOKED for Your Kingdom, Matt 6:33, 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…

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 pain in your heart, Father, as you cry out for time with your son and for the salvation and repentance of your wife. Your love for them is evident, and we stand with you in this spiritual battle, knowing that the enemy seeks to destroy families and hinder the work of God. We rebuke the spirit of division, rebellion, and ungodly influence that has kept your son from you and has hardened your wife’s heart. In the name of Jesus, we command these strongholds to be broken, and we declare restoration and reconciliation according to Your will.

The Word of God is clear: *"A man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall be one flesh"* (Genesis 2:24). Marriage is a covenant, not just between a man and a woman, but before God, and it is meant to reflect the relationship between Christ and the Church (Ephesians 5:32-33). The rejection of godly counsel, the withholding of your son, and the disregard for biblical order in marriage are not aligned with Your design. We pray that the Holy Spirit would convict your wife of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), leading her to true repentance—a godly sorrow that produces life without regret (2 Corinthians 7:10).

You are right to long for your son to be raised in the training and instruction of the Lord (Ephesians 6:4). The Scriptures teach that children are a heritage from the Lord (Psalm 127:3), and fathers play a vital role in their spiritual upbringing. We pray that your wife would recognize the importance of your involvement in your son’s life and that she would submit to God’s order, as the Word says, *"Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord"* (Ephesians 5:22). This is not about control but about honoring the structure God has established for the flourishing of families.

We also lift you up, brother, that you would continue to walk in love, patience, and wisdom. Your desire to forgive and to speak tenderly to her heart (Hosea 2:14) is a reflection of Christ’s love, even in the midst of pain. Yet we also recognize that love does not mean enabling sin or compromising truth. If your wife continues in rebellion, the Word instructs us to *"not be unequally yoked with unbelievers"* (2 Corinthians 6:14). While we pray for her salvation and restoration, we must also prepare our hearts for the possibility that God’s will may unfold differently than we hope. Your priority must be to raise your son in the ways of the Lord, even if that means doing so apart from her for a season.

We join you in praying that the false security of eternal life without repentance would be shattered in her life. True salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone (Acts 4:12), and it produces a transformed life. We declare that the Holy Spirit would draw her to Himself, that her heart would be softened, and that she would turn from sin and toward Christ. If necessary, let her circumstances "crash down" so that she has no other option but to run to You, just as the prodigal son came to his senses in the pigpen (Luke 15:17-18). Yet we also pray for the still, small voice of God to speak to her heart, as He did with Elijah, leading her out of rebellion and into obedience (1 Kings 19:12-13).

Father, we ask that You would grant this brother wisdom in how to navigate this situation. Give him the strength to fast and pray fervently, to love unconditionally, and to stand firm on Your Word. We declare that the gates of hell will not prevail against the Church (Matthew 16:18), and we resist the devil’s schemes in this family’s life. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified in their restoration or in their separate paths, whatever brings You the most honor.

We pray for your son, that he would know the love of his earthly father and his Heavenly Father. May he grow in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man (Luke 2:52). Protect his heart from bitterness, confusion, or the lies of the enemy. Let him see Christ in you, and may he one day walk in the fullness of his calling.

Lord, we thank You that You are patient, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We trust in Your timing and Your perfect plan. Whether this marriage is restored or this family walks separate paths, we ask that You would be glorified and that Your Kingdom would advance. We agree in Jesus’ name that Your will be done, and we declare that no weapon formed against this family shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17).

In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

Dear friend, we echo your cry for time with your ### and for the salvation and repentance of your ###. We stand with you, believing that God's heart is for restoration and reconciliation. We pray that the spirit of division, rebellion, and ungodly influence would be broken, and that your family would be united under God's will.

We agree with the counselor's perspective, but we also want to emphasize the importance of setting boundaries. While we should always be ready to forgive and show love, we must also be willing to protect ourselves and our children from harmful influences. This doesn't mean giving up on your ###, but rather loving her in a way that allows her to see the consequences of her actions.

We pray that God would give you wisdom in how to navigate this situation. May He grant you the strength to stand firm in your convictions, while also showing love and patience. We declare that the gates of hell will not prevail against your family, and that God's will would be done in your lives.

We also pray for your ###, that he would grow in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. May he always know the love of his father and his Heavenly Father. We trust in God's timing and His perfect plan for your family.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
