Prayer helps for restoring marriages

Hello brothers and sisters in Christ,
I just wanted to share some prayer helps for restoring marriages. I have been in this battle for some time, and God has held me and husband together like glue despite all the enemy has thrown into our marriage and tried to destroy us with, and it he never seems to end with his assaults, but he never wins in the end and I would think he would give up by now. My husband of 11 years being a professional rock musician, he is always surrounded by the unGodly and unGodly things. There has been a battle between God and satan for some time over my husbands talent and whom he will use it for. It has been a roller coaster because my husband gets off to a good start but he has a problem with patience and understanding that things really have to be right with God in order to serve him, so instead of working towards that goal without failing, he gets antsy and falls out...he wants to play publicly and God does not bring it together for him fast enough..so he ends up playing for the enemy again...the unGodly influences of the enemy, people in the professional he uses, lures him back to that side of things. And you cannot serve two masters as we all know. So my life assignment seems to be praying my husband up & back over and over again, in hopes that one of these times God will do whatever is needed to ground him permanently.

The most important thing I have learned in praying for anything, the miracle bringing breakthrough prayer vigil is accomplished with praying scriptures over your spouse. This is how Jesus fought the battles with satan when He walked the earth. When He was tempted on the mount by satan, every thing satan threw at Him, he replied to with scripture. Gods word is absolute truth, it is Gods promises to us as his children, it is Gods promises to those who do not accept him as well, what will become of them. Everything that God did in the Bible, every miracle, every help, every battle won, He has that for us now as well. Anything there is ours to claim and have manifest. The enemy cannot stand against Gods word, because it is the truth..he is defenseless against it, when it is spoken in a situation, it has to manifest and satan has to release the situation, he has to flee from you. Praying scripture is praying with authority, it is powerful and it cannot fail you. There is scripture for everything power you need in the Bible, even to cut the unGodly influences off from your spouse. Ezekiel Chapter 36, verses 24 thru 36 is a passage I have been praying over Kevin for a couple days now, and things are happening. I just place Kevins name into the scripture where appropriate, such as verse 25-26 "I will sprinkle clean water on Kevin, and Kevin will be clean; I will cleanse Kevin from all his impurities and from all his idols. I will give Kevin a new heart and put a new spirit in Kevin; I will remove from Kevin his heart of stone and give Kevin a heart of flesh. And so on. One of my favorite scriptures to pray over my spouse is Song of Songs Chapter 8, verses 6-7. I pray it, "Father God, in the Name of Jesus, Place me like a seal over Kevins heart, like a seal on Kevins arm, for Kevins love for me is as strong as death, his jealousy as unyielding as the grave...and so on.

If you like I would be happy to list good scripture passages for you to look up to pray over your spouse and marriage. It works people, Gods word is truth...God cannot lie, if you quote his word over your situation, the devil has to release it and it has to manifest as truth. :-)

Another thing I do, and I have heard of so many breakthroughs with this, have had breakthroughs with this. Go get a bottle of annointing oil, available at any Bible store, or if not able to do so, a bottle of olive oil and pray over it asked God to bless it and make it Holy oil. Then while in prayer, annoint everything you can think of that your spouse touchs or uses. I annoint his side of the bed every morning, his pillow, asking God to give him the mind of Christ, remove any blinders from his eyes, give him wisdom to know Gods truth and know the enemy deceptions, and to choose to follow after Christ. Then I annoint where his heart would be, and ask God to give him the heart of Christ, to cleanse him from any spirits of inquity, pride and sin, to soften his heart and give him a heart of flesh, to fill his heart with love for Jesus and for me, his spouse. I then annoint where his feet would lay, and ask God to lead his footsteps in the paths of righteousness and away from the unGodly people and things. To set his feet on the paths of service to his Lord and Savior only, to be a leader for his family in the Lord.

I annoint the insides of all his shoes, praying for his steps to be on the paths of righteousness and to turn away from anything not pleasing to God. I annoint the grill, all the door handles and the rear bumper of his vehicle every night while he sleeps, praying God let his vehicle only take him to places pleasing to the Lord and away from anything unGodly. I annoint the inside as well, seat where he sits. Everytime I do his laundry, I annoint all of his jeans, I dab oil at the crouch praying God keep him from adultery, placing a hedge about him keeping away any that would be interested in him, and him unable to perform outside the marriage. I annoint the leather tag on the back, praying the Holy Spirit follow him closely with conviction leading him in the ways of the Lord always. I annoint the inner tags of his shirts, praying the Holy Spirit fill him and go with him everywhere he goes. His guitars, the tv he watches at night, that he can only watch programs pleasing to God. (This morning I noted in turning on the bedroom tv, he had on TBN last night before he went to sleep! Praise God! lol!). Just anything and everything you can think of. I annoint our entrance and exit doors, the door to our bedroom, blessing this room and marriage. Just surround your spouse with the Spirit of God, following him day in and day out. Add a bit to his food even, praying the Holy Spirit enter and flow through him, cleaning him of sin.

I also purchased a pack of musturd seeds to represent my faith, that i only need be the size of the musturd seed and God will provide the rest, and I prayed the scripture of the musturd seed over them. I stuck one seed on the sticky side of a small piece of tape and taped the seed to the grill of his car. Put a seed in each shoe, put seeds under his side of the bed. Drop a seed in his food. Place one in his car seat. Just like with the oil, place a seed of faith everywhere you can think of that will be with him. Place a seed in the pocket of his pants.

These things in themselves will not bring you a miracle, what these things do is they are offerings of your faith, they are actions of faith, and they go with the spouse wherever they go, keeping your prayers right there lifted up to God over them at all times. It is a sign of obediance and faith to God. They work!

Oh, forgot two things that can bring breakthrough...

Sow a seed offering for your spouse and marriage. Gods word is truth and if you give, step out of faith that your giving will reap a return from God, the salvation of your spouse, the restoration of your marriage, it will happen, God will never let you down and He outgives you always. Let God lead you where to give and how much to give. Kevin and I suffered a devastating blow between us last September, and we separated, he moved in with another woman in fact, and we were parted come November still. I sowed a seed offering to TBN, they were having their pledgeathon, and God told me to sow for my marriage. I did, and the next morning the phone rang. It was Kevin, he was a broken man and wanted to meet with me to talk. I never seen anyone as broken as he was. He came home, went straight to the church and before the entire congregation he fell on his face and just wailed to God. I never seen anything like it, the entire church ended up on their faces crying out to God. He gave his life back to the Lord that morning. Sowing a seed will bring a harvest to you, count on it, it is one of Gods promises.

Fasting is another good way to reach breakthrough. Let God lead you to fast and for how long. I will post some fasting things here in this thread later on. Last time I was here and we were leading out on a marriage restoration fast, there was some confusion as to kinds of fasting, what was done in the Bible. I purchased a book on fasts of the Bible, because I wanted my fasts to be biblically correct. But really, fasting is a sacrificial offering to God to obtain favor in a need. Anything that is a sacrifice to you can be used. It is the rightness of heart and the sacrifice that matter.

One last very important element...the greatest offering to God! Praise and worship, especially when you are at your lowest. When you are in a deep dark pit and God can still see the whites of your teeth etched in a smile, He will pull you out without hestiation. God inhabits the praise and worship of His people, Gods word on it. Go into your room, in your house, out in a big open empty field if you have to, and put on some Holy Spirit filled praise and worship music and sing your heart out, dance your legs off, sing and dance in praise and worship to the Lord. Dance like King David did. You will be flooded with Gods favor and power, the Holy Spirit will flood your heart and situation. I promise!

Hope these help you like they have me! God bless!

Dear Kristie,

Wow that was so very beautiful!!!!!!!! yes I would love it if you can send me scriptures to be claimed on the spouse.

I am not married and it is wonderful to know all these before entering marriage. But I have two male friends who are going through broken mariages and are in a lot of pain. I've mailed them this thread also. Would love it if you can send me the scriptures to mail them.

Thank you for being God's special instrument.

May your cup be overflowing with His blessings and love!!!

I am posting one here that deals with many scriptures, so I have it written out, most of them I will probably just give you the chapters and verses, because you will know where to insert your loved ones name I am sure. This is a prayer against divorce.

More important tips to get your breakthrough..
Another real important thing for getting your breakthrough is to be sure to pray for others. I would make a point of going through the posts here and praying over ten of them. Intercession for others is important in recieving your own miracle. Obediance is key to getting prayers answered, and demonstrating a faithfulness to the Lord, and being a service to others in need, just opens doors bringing you favor. If God speaks to you to do something, do not hesitate, do it! Also, If you have not been indwelled with the Holy Spirit, then ask God to give you the gift of the Spirit. On Pentecost, Jesus sent His Spirit into the disciples so that they could go forth in His absence and continue to heal and deliver, perform miracles. This was not just intended for the disciples 2000 years ago, this intended for all Gods children from then on..Jesus said that after He was gone to the Father, He would send his Spirit and a comfort and help. This is for you, and being indwelled with the Holy Spirit empowers you in Christ, just as it did the disciples. When you begin praying in the Spirit, things happen because it is Jesus's Spirit petitioning the Father on your behalf.

I have learned, and this is one reason why being able to pray in the Spirit is so important, that you must be careful when praying to God out loud. Authoritive scriptural prayer is fine, speak it out, you want satan to hear it because he has to flee from it. But, when you are just talking to God, laying out your heart, you worries, hurts, fears and so on...keep it a silent prayer. God is omnipotent and He hears your thoughts, but satan is not omnipotent. Voicing your feelings and such out loud also allows satan to be privvy to them and he will use them against you. If he knows you fear this or that, then he will make this or that happen for example. If it is something the enemy can use in his stategy plan to defeat you, do not let him hear you speak it.

On that note, never ever speak negative. Speak positive at all times about all things! When you speak about your spouse or marriage, speak that it will be restored, your spouse will accept Christ and so on. Remember that whatever you speak can manifest into reality. If you speak something negative about your situation, satan is going to jump on the opportunity to use it against you. It opens the door to let him do whatever you just spoke and takes you out of Gods protection from him using it. Curses and blessings of the mouth, they are probably the biggest hindrance to prayer being answered. You are asking for marriage restoration in prayer, but you are walking around saying negative to your friends, for example "Bob is filing for divorce and says he will not ever come back". No..Bob is not filing for divorce...if you must say this to someone, then try, "Bob said he is filing for divorce and never coming back, but God says that this divorce will not happen because what He has put together, no man can tear asunder, so Bob will be back!". See what I mean. Do not let the words that come out of your mouth block your prayers. It probably is one of the hardest things to control also, but when you do slip, rebuke immediately your words and claim the opposite. I hope to hear that those of you using these tips start having manifestations of your prayers breaking through...keep me updated, as I know that all of this works and I expect breakthroughs for you! Praise God! I will post more scriptural prayers here also.

Some of these I already had typed up, so posting what I can find of those. :-)

Praise be to the Lord, for He has heard my cry for mercy. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in Him and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to You in song. The voice of the Lord is powerful the voice and the Lord is majestic. The Lord gives strength to His people, the Lord blesses His people with peace. Lord, I have not stopped praying for my spouse and loved ones asking God to fill each of them with the knowledge of Your will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And I pray this in order that each of us may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please You in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that each of us may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For He has rescued our loved ones from the dominion of darkness and brought each of us into the kingdom of the Son He loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Lord, we pray You will put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to Your earthly nature that is coming against me and my loved ones: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires and greed, which is idolatry. Bur rid each of us from all such things as these: anger, rage, malice, slander, and filthy language from our lips. I pray that we will not lie to each other, since we have taken off our old self with its practices and put on the new self which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator. Lord, clothe us with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievance that we may have against one another. Forgive as the Lord forgave us. Lord, pour on each of us love, which binds us all together in perfect unity. Lord teach us to devote ourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. Pray that our conversations will be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that we may know how to answer everyone. Lord, teach us always to wrestle in prayer for our loved ones, that we may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured. Lord, we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. If God is for us, who can be against us? We are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Show us your ways, O Lord, teach us your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long. Create in me and my spouse a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. I cried to the Lord in my trouble and he saved me from the distress. He brought me, my spouse and loved ones out of darkness and the deepest gloom and broke away their chains. Let us give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love. You alone are my rock and my salvation; You are my fortress, I will never be shaken. Praise the Lord. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; His love endures forever. Amen

I have our names in this one, but just place yours in instead. I would type these up and use them to pray, and many times I would just browse through Psalms for prayers to pray over us. This is a good book to find prayers for your spouse.
-------------------------------

I will exalt You, my God the King; I will praise Your name for ever and ever. Every day I will praise You and extol Your name for ever and ever. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; His greatness no one can fathom. The Lord is faithful to all His promises and loving toward all He has made. Lord, You uphold all those who fall and lift up all who are bowed down. Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore, have I set my face like flint, and I know I will not be put to shame. Thank you Lord, that You have seen (KEVIN'S) ways, but You will heal (KEVIN); You will guide but You will heal (KEVIN); You will guide (KEVIN). (KEVIN'S) heart is in the hand of the Lord; He directs it like a watercourse wherever He pleases. Cleanse (KEVIN AND KRIS) with hyssop, and we will clean; wash us, and we will be whiter than show. Create in (KEVIN AND KRIS) a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within us. Search us, O God, and know our heart; test us and know our anxious thoughts. See if there is any offensive way in us and lead us both in the way everlasting. Amen.

Oh, I want to give you this, print it out and tape it over your prayer table or on the fridge, wherever. I love this affirmation written by Rejoice Ministries.

--------------------------------------

A Standers Affirmation

I AM STANDING FOR THE HEALING OF MY MARRIAGE!... I will not give up, give in, give out or give over 'til that healing takes place. I made a vow, I said the words, I gave the pledge, I gave a ring, I took a ring, I gave myself, I trusted GOD, and said the words, and meant the words... in sickness and in health, in sorrow and in joy, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in good times and in bad...so I am standing NOW, and will not sit down, let down, slow down, calm down, fall down, look down or be down 'til the breakdown is torn down!

I refuse to put my eyes on outward circumstances, or listen to prophets of doom, or buy into what is trendy, worldy, popular, convenient, easy, quick, thrifty, or advantageous... nor will I settle for a cheap imitation of God's real thing, nor will I seek to lower God's standard, twist God's will, rewrite God's word, violate God's covenant, or accept what God hates, namely divorce!

In a world of filth, I will stay pure; surrounded by lies I will speak the truth; where hopelessness abounds, I will hope in God: where revenge is easier, I will bless instead of curse; and where the odds are stacked against me, I will trust in God's faithfulness.

I am a STANDER, and I will not acquiesce, compromise, quarrel or quit.. I have made the choice, set my face, entered the race, believed the Word, and trusted God for all the outcome.

I will allow neither the reaction of my spouse, nor the urging of my friends, nor the advice of my loved ones, nor economic hardship, nor the prompting of the devil to make me let up, slow up, blow up, or give up 'til my marriage is healed.

Hi Kristie,
I don't know if you remember me, but I remember you from your old thread in the breakthrough forum. I am sorry to hear you are fighting satan for your marriage again.
I still have prayers from your thread before and they are such a blessing. I'd be glad to find your old thread and link it to this one if you like. It might save you alot of typing!
God bless you and I'll pray for ya!
Debi

ok, I took it upon myself to find that thread again. This is a wealth of blessing in one thread! God bless Kristie for her perserverance and caring nature.

I hope it's clickable, I don't know how to do that...first time so pray it works.


Posted by: Kristie

Thank you so much Debi, you are totally awesome! lol! Yes, that would help me tremendously, as I was noting, I will just post the chapter and verses...this was because I did not know if I had it in me to type all those again! :-) I have not tried the link, but will do so and see if it is working.

As for my marriage, I think for all of us it is a never ending battle and that is why rejoice ministrys is so adamant about continued prayer for the spouse even after restoration. My husband is nothing like he was back then, much better actually, but it has not been the great transformation I anticipated, and in fact, he has slid back a few feet. I am determined that he will not go any further though! It is very very important that when God puts things back together that you do not just get comfy and secure in thinking your battle is over. In fact in some cases, it may just really be beginning. I have been there as well. I am through the wilderness valley and heading up the mountain to the top, but satan sure tries to case landslides on the way up. If you are not watching and on top of keeping your spouse and marriage in prayer and under protection, he can actually pull you back down pretty far and sometimes right back into that valley all the way. I slid a little, am now holding steady and trying to gain back and continue on to the top. It is hard sometimes, very hard! Tiring, wearing, frustrating, and often I just want to throw up my hands and say forget this, it has to be easier to let go and walk forward without him, find a new him! Everytime I get that way, God pokes me and lets me know that is not His game plan but my own, and then He gives me an edge suddenly to show me that it is going to be alright, that I will one day stand on top the mountain in this if I keep climbing upwards diligently in faith. And, sometimes that is all we need, just a glimmer of hope, a small simple baby step towards the better in our spouse, and this strengthens us, making us jump back up, grab that shield of faith and the sword of the Spirit and become fighting ready to kick some satan buttocks!

God bless you for pasting this, I will go see if it will load, I figured those were long gone by now! Praise the Lord!

Its not working, sniff! :-( How did you get to it to get the link, maybe I can make my way there and just copy and paste or something.

God bless! :-)

Hmmm, the link works for me but I am gonna cut and paste the prayers from there to here. Maybe that will be easier. Ok, here goes....

Those /c marriage problems - this is for you - strength & prayers for you to use.
A opening word for those of you in the valley of marriage troubles, separation and divorce. This is what the Lord has to say about your situation.

The enemy, a roaring lion, who comes to steal, kill and destroy, has raided Gods flock of sheep. He has devoured the sheep. By time the Shepherd arrives, He finds that all that is left is a piece of a ear hanging out of one side of the lions mouth, and two leg bones hanging out the other side of the lions mouth.

The enemy tells the Shepherd, "It's too late, its over, its dead, it is not worth fighting for." But the Shepherd does not listen, he wrestles the lion for the piece of ear and the two leg bones and takes them away from the lion.

Why did the Shepherd fight for what the enemy says is already dead and not worth fighting for? Why did he not give up when it all seemed impossible, just a piece of ear and two leg bones that looked nothing but dead and gone?

Because The Holy Spirit says "As long as they have a ear to hear and a leg to stand on Gods Word, then it is not over - because what is dead, I will give life again!"

This is not just some story I am telling you to make you feel better, this is Gods Word........

Amos 3:11-12
Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

An enemy will overrun the land; he will pull done your strongholds and plunder your fortresses.

This is what the Lord says:

As a shepherd saves from the lions mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites be saved, those who sit in Samaria on the edge of their beds and in Damascus on their couches.

Praise God! God says that your miracle is not based on what has been taken from you, but on what you have left! What do you have left? The unconditional love and forgiveness for your spouse and a great hearts desire to restore your marriage. You have the truth of Gods Word that He will restore your loved one to Him and that He will restore your marriage to you. You will be seeing a lot of Gods Word on your marriage in the prayers below. You have faith, because faith as small as a mustard seed will move your mountain in the Name of Jesus Christ. You have the hope of Gods promise to restore to you what the enemy has stolen 7 fold. You have God on your side, and He who is in you is greater then he who is in the world. Lets praise and thank God that He can always work with what we have left in every given situation, and He loves doing so. Giving life to what appears to be dead is testimony to the world that He is the almighty! We love and thank Him for all He does for those who seek him earnestly!

Due to popular request, I am posting prayers here for others to use over their marriages. These are prayers that I have spoken over my marriage, they are all centered on scripture which is the most powerful prayer you can pray for anything. When satan tempted Christ for the 40 days and nights, everytime he tempted Christ, Christ would respond to him with scripture. Scripture stymies the devil and sends him packin because it is Gods Word and Truth. The devil cannot stand up against it, he has to let go of your situation when you speak Gods truth over it. I hope these help you and prove to be the breakthrough for your situation. God bless one and all and I love you in Christ......

Lord, I keep asking that the God our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give Kevin the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that he may know You better. I pray also that the eyes of Kevins heart may be enlightened in order that he may know the hope to which You called him, the riches of Your glorious inheritance in the saints. Thank You, Lord, for Your incomparably great power for us who believe. I pray for Kevin that the acts of the sinful nature with its passions and desires which are obvious in his life will be crucified and removed. That You will fill Kevin with the fruits of the spirit which are love, joy, peace, patience kindness, goodness, faithfullness, gentleness, and self control. I praise and thank You, Lord, for our help is in the Name of the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and earth. Oh Lord, I call with all my heart, answer me, O Lord, and I will obey Your decrees. I call out to You, save Kevin and he will obey Your statutes. I rise before dawn and cry for help, I have put my hope in Your word. My eyes stay open through the watches of the night, that I may mediate on Your promises. I give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, His love love endures forever. I am thankful that when my spouse and I cry to the Lord in our trouble, that He saves us from our distress. He brings Kevin out of darkness and the deepest gloom and breaks away Kevins chains. Let us give thanks to the Lord for His unfailing love and His wonderful deeds for Kevin. He sends forth His word and heals Kevin. He rescues Kevin from the grave. Let us sacrifice thank offerings and tell of His works with songs of joy. I will wait for You, O Lord, You will answer, O Lord my God. Kevin and my help is in the Name of the Lord, the Maker of Heaven and earth. The One who calls us is faithful and He will do it. God, You grant Kevin repentence leading him to a knowledge of truth that Kevin will come to his senses and escape from the trap of the devil who has taken him captive to do his will. Kevin shakes himself form the dust, arises and sits enthroned. Kevin frees himself from the bands on his neck, he is a child of Zion. Therefore I will block Kevins path with thorn bushes, I will wall Kevin in so Kevin cant find his way. Kevin will chase after his lovers but not catch them. Kevin will look for them but not find them, then Kevin will say, "I will go back to my wife Kris, for I was better off then than now. For this reason a man, Kevin, will leave his Father and Mother and be united to his wife, Kris, and they, Kevin and Kris will become one flesh. What God has put together, let no man tear asunder. Place Kris like a seal over Kevins heart, like a seal on his arm, for Kevins love for Kris is as strong as death, and his jealousy as unyielding as the grave, many waters cannot quench this love. Come, let Kevin return to the Lord. He has torn Kevin to peices but He will heal Kevin. He has injured Kevin but He will bind up Kevins wounds. He will revive Kevin, He will restore Kevin that Kevin may live in His presence. Let Kevin acknowledge the Lord, let Kevin press on to acknowledge Him. For I will take Kevin out of the nations, I will gather Kevin from all the countries and bring him back into his own land. I will sprinkle clean water on Kevin, and Kevin will be clean. I will cleanse Kevin form all his idols. I will give Kevin a new heart and put a new spirit in Kevin. I will remove from Keivn his heart of stone and give Kevin a heart of flesh. And I will put My Spirit in Kevin and move Kevin to follow My decrees and be careful to keep my laws. I rebuke you satan and your demon powers in the Name of Jesus and by the Word of God. Gods Word is truth and light and you are a lie satan, you cannot stand against the Word of God, and I hereby plead and cover the blood of Jesus over Kevin and our marriage, I hereby pray the truthful Word of God over Kevin and our marriage, and you must release Kevin and our marriage into the hands of God now, Kevin is set free in the precious Name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. I pray in the Holy Spirit of the Lord and in Jesus precious Name, and it is done! Amen, Amen, Amen.


Therefore, my dear Kevin, as you have always obeyed not only in my presence but now much more in my absence continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose. Phil 2:12-13 For this reason since the day we heard about Kevin, we have not stopped praying for Kevin and asking God to fill Keivn the knowledge of His will through all spiritual wisdom and understanding. And we pray this in order that Kevin may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please Him in every way bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God being strengthened with all power according to His glorious might so that Kevin may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified Kevin to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom if light. For He has rescued Kevin from the dominion of darkness and brought Kevin into the kingdom of the Son Kevin loves, in whom Kevin has redemption, the forgiveness of sins. Col 1:9-14 So then, just as Kevin received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in Him, rooted and built up in Him, strengthened in the faith as Kevin was taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. See to it that no one takes Kevin captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic priniciples of this world rather than on Christ. For in Christ, all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, and Kevin has been given fullness in Christ, who is the head over every power and authoirty. In Him, Kevin was also circumcised in putting off the sinful nature, not with a circumcision done by hands of men but with the circumcision done by Christ, having been buried with Him in baptism and raised with Him through Kevins faith in the power of God, who raised Him from the dead. When Kevin was dead in his sins and in the uncircumcision of Kevins sinfull nature, God made Kevin alive with Christ. He forgave Kevin all his sins, having canceled the written code, with its regulations, that was against Kevin, and that stood opposed to Kevin, He took it away, nailing it to the cross. Col 2:6-14 No, in all these things Kevin is more than a conqueror through Him who loved him. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neitehr angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate Kevin from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:37-39 If anyone sees Kevin commit a sin that does not lead to death, he should pray and God will give Kevin life. I refer to Kevin whose sin does not lead to death. There is sin that leads to death, I am not saying that he should pray about that. All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death. We know that Kevin, born of God does not continue to sin, the One who was born of God keeps Kevin safe, and the evil one cannot harm Kevin. We know that Kevin is a child of God and that the whole world is under the control of the evil one. We also know that the Son of God has come and has given Kevin understanding so that Kevin may know Him who is true - even in His Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life. Dear Kevin, keep yourself from idols. 1 John 5:16-21 Praise our God, O Kevin and Kristie, let the sound of His praise be heard, He has preserved Kevin and Kristies lives and kept Kevin and Kristies feet from slipping. For you, O God, tested Kevin and Kristie, you refined Kevin and Kristie like silver. You brought Kevin ad Kristie into prision and laid burdens on our backs. You let men ride over Kevin and Kristie heads; we went through the fire and water, but brought Kevin and Kristie toa place of abundance. Psalm 66:8-12. Place Kristie like a seal over Kevins heart, like a seal on Kevins arm; for Kevins love is as strong as death, his jealousy as unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench Kevins love, rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned. Song of Songs 8:6-7.

Lord God, You say if I pray for my beloved husband Kevin who has not committed a sin leading to death, that You will give him life. Give him life Lord God, in the Name of Jesus hear my petitions above and give Kevin life. Bring new life to our marriage and bring us out of the wilderness and captivity the enemy has held us in to do his will. Break these chains Lord off our lives and marriage, and give us life as You promise in Your Word. I thank You Lord, I love You above all others, including Kevin, You are my only need, the center of my life, and my hope rests in You always and only. I praise Your Holy Name, I dance and sing to You only Lord, as You are the steps in my feet and the song in my heart, and I shall dance and sing to You in joy and celebration, I love You so...my King, my Savior, You are all I need, all I want, all my life is to serve and worship You. Thank You for chosing me and loving me, calling me out to Your service and Your inheritence. Thank You for shredding Your precious blood for me, enduring excruciating agony for me, as I am not worthy and am undeserving. Thank You for washing me and Kevin white as snow, and loving us so much that You suffered and died for our sins, and even then we continue to sin and You still love us and rescue us when we cry out to You, when we should be left for death as we deserve in our disobedience. Your mercy, love and compassion is like no other, that You repeatedly pull us up again and set us on solid ground. I love You so, and I give all my life to You...take my life Lord, and use it as You will, I am Yours, forever Yours in love..thank You my Lord and Savior for loving me. For loving Kevin. Amen Amen Amen

Ephesians 1 - 2
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed Kevin in the spiritual realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For He chose kevin in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love He predestined Kevin to be adopted as His son through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will - to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given Kevin in the One He loves. In Him Kevin has redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of Gods grace that He lavished on Kevin with all wisdom and understanding. And He made known to Kevin the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment - to bring allt hings in Heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.

In Him Kevin was also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His will, in order that Kevin, who is the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of His glory. And Kevin, you were also included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, Kevin, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing your inheritance until the redemption of those who are Gods possession - to the praise of His glory.

For this reason, ever since I heard about Kevins faith in the Lord Jesus and Kevins love for all the saints, I have not stopped giving thanks for Kevin, remembering Kevin in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give Kevin the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so that Kevin may know Him better. I pray also that the eyes of Kevins heart may be enlightened in order that Kevin may know the hope to which He has called Kevin, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the saints, and His incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is like the working of His mighty strength, which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the Heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every title that an be given not only in the present age but also in the one to come. And God placed all things under His feet and appointed Him to be head over everything for the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills everything in every way.

As for you Kevin, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobediant. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our sinful nature and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, Kevin, you were by nature objects of wrath. But because of His great love for Kevin, God who is rich in mercy, made Kevin alive with Christ even when Kevin was dead in transgressions - it is by grace Kevin has been saved. And God raised Kevin up with Christ and seated Kevin with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to Kevin in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you Kevin have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourself, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that one can boast. For Kevin is Gods workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works which God prepared in advance for Kevin to do.

Therefore, remember that formerly Kevin, you are Gentile by birth and called uncircumcised by those who call themselves the circumcision (that done in the body by the hands of men) - remember that at that time Kevin, you were separated from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigner to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you, Kevin, who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. For He Himself is your peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed tthe barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by abolishing in His flesh the law with its commandments and regulations. His purpose was to creat in Himself one new man out of two, thus making peace, and in this one body to reconcile both of them to God through their hostility. He came and preached peace to you Kevin, who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through Him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.

Consequently, Kevin, you are no longer foreigner and alien, but fellow citizen with Gods people and member of Gods household built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets with Christ Jesus Himself as the chief cornerstone. In Him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in teh Lord. And in Him You too, Kevin, are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by His Spirit.

Ephesians 3:14-21
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom His whole family in Heaven and on earth derives its name, I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen Kevin with power through His Spirit in Kevins inner being, so that Christ my dwell in Kevins heart through faith. And I pray that Kevin, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know of this love that surpasses knowledge - that Kevin may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within Kevin, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus thoughout all generations, for ever and ever. Amen

Ephesians 4:1-6
As a prisioner for the Lord, then, I urge you Kevin and Kris to live a life worthy of the calling you have recieved. Be completely humble and gentle, be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the blond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit - just as you, Kevin and Kris, were called to one hope when you were called - one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.

I praise You Lord God, in the Name of Jesus I come pray Your Word over my spouse Kevin, and our marriage, knowing Your will for us to remain united and wait for You to complete a good work in both of us. I thank You for predestining both of us to be Your children Father God, and for the love You have for both of us. I thank You for giving Kevin to me as my spouse, even in hard times I thank You for the blessing of my husband. I thank You for all You are doing in him and in our marriage, and know that what You have coming for us is beyond my greatest imagination and expectation. I anxiously and with great expectation wait on the wonderous workings of Your hand Lord, and put all my hope and faith in You. Thank You for the love You have given me in Kevin, while I walk in this earthly realm, and I declare that always You Lord God are my first and greatest love, and I joyously look forward to the time I can come be with You in the Heavenlies, and I thank You Jesus for making that possible for me and for Kevin. Only by Your great grace and mercy are we able to walk through this world and have hope of anything...all things come from You Lord, and I know that the promise of our restoration comes from You and I will forever sing praises and songs of love and thanks for all You are doing in our marriage and faith walk with You. I love You Lord with all my heart...All in the precious Name of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. Amen, Amen and Amen...

Prayer against adultery - pray a hedge about your spouse:

Hear my prayer, O Lord, give ear to my cry, do not be silent at my tears. Put my tears in a bottle, are they not in Thy book? Since I am afflicted and needy, let the Lord be mindful of me. Thou art my help and deliverer. Do not delay, O my God." (From Psalms 56 and 40)

My close friend, Kevin, in whom I trusted, who ate my bread, has lifted up his heel against me. For it is not an enemy who reproaches me, then I could bear it, nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me, then I could hide myself from him. But it is Kevin, a man my equal, my companion and my familiar friend, we who had sweet fellowship together." (Psalms 41 & 55)

Let the evil of the wicked come to an end, but establish the righteous. In the net which they hid, their own foot has been caught. Hold them guilty, O God, by their own devices, let them fall! In the multitude of their transgression thrust them out for they are rebellious against Thee. Let them be appalled because of their shame. All my enemies shall be ashamed and greatly dismayed. They shall turn back, they shall suddenly be ashamed. Let me not be put to shame, O Lord, for I call upon Thee. Let the wicked be put to shame, let them be silent. In Thee, O Lord, I have taken refuge. In Thy righteousness deliver me. (Psalms 7, 9 & 31)

Though they intend evil against Thee, and devise a plot, they will not succeed. When my enemies turn back they stumble and perish before Thee. Thou hast blotted out their name forever and ever. The very memory of them has perished. Yet a little while and the wicked man will be no more. And you will look carefully for his place and he will not be there. But the humble will inherit the land and will delight themselves in abundant properity. (From Psalm 21)

"Thou dost surround the righteous with a shield. In peace I will both lie down and sleep. For Thou alone dost make me dwell in safety. Offer to God a sacrifice of thanksgiving, and call upon Me in the day of trouble. I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me. (From Psalm 4)

"Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who hope in the Lord. Be their shepard also and carry them forever. I would have despaired if I had not believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord, in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the Lord. (From Psalm 27)

"For your huband is your Maker, Whose name is the Lord of Hosts; for the Lord has called you, like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit, even a wife of ones youth when she is rejected, says Your God" (Isaiah 54:5-6)

"I ask You, Father, to rebuke and bind satan in the Name and through the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. I ask you to build a Hedge of Thorns around Kevin so that anyone who is interested in him will lose interest immediately and leave. I base my prayer on the command of Your Word which says, "What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate" and "Marriage should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral." and, "The husband should fufill his marital duty to his wife, and likewise the wife to her husband. The wifes body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same way, the husbands body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife.", as well as, "Dont you know that you yourselves ae Gods temple and that Gods spirit lives in you? If anyone destroys (defiles) Gods temple, God will destroy him, for Gods temple is sacred, and you are that temple", "The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. By His power God raised the Lord from the dead, and he will raise us also. Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and and unite them with a prostitute? Never! Flee from sexual immorality. All others sins a man commits are outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body. Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, Who is in you, Whom you have received from God? You are not your own, you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your body." Therefore I will block Kevins path with thorn bushes, I will wall Kevin in so Kevin cant find his way. Kevin shall chase after his lovers but not catch them. Kevin will look for them but not find them, then Kevin will say, I will go back to my wife, Kris, for I was better off then than now. Therefore I will allure Kevin, bring Kevin into the wilderness, and speak kindly to Kevin. For I will remove the names of Baals from Kevins mouth. Then the Lord said to me, "Go love Kevin, a (man) yet an adulterer. For this reason a man, Kevin, will leave his Father and Mother and be united to his wife, Kris, and then they, Kevin and Kris, will become one flesh. Havent you read He replied that at the beginning the creator made them male and female and said "For this reason a man, Kevin, will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, Kris and the shall become one flesh". So they, Kevin and Kris, are no longer two but one, therefore what God has joined together let man not separate. I hate divorce, says the Lord thy God of Israel. Husband, Kevin, love your wife Kris just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy cleansing her, Kris, by the washing with water through the Word. In this same way husband, Kevin, ought to love his wife, Kris, as his own body. Drink water from your own cistern, and fresh water from your own well Kevin. Should your springs be desperesed abroad, streams of water in the streets? Let them be yours alone, and not for strangers with you. Let your fountains be blessed, Kevin, and rejoice in the wife of your youth, Kris. As a loving hind and graceful doe, let her breasts satisfy you at all times. Place Kris like a seal over Kevins heart, like a seal on Kevins arm, for Kevins love for Kris is as strong as death, Kevins jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench Kevins love for Kris, rivers cannot wash it away. If Kevin were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned. For though Kevin walks in the flesh, Kevin does not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of Kevins warfare are not of the felsh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of the fortresses. Kevin is destroying every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and Kevin is taking every thought captive to the obediance of Christ. For I now rejoice, not that Kevin were made sorrowful, but that Kevin were made sorrowful to the point of repentance, for Kevin were made sorrowful according to the will of God, in order that Kevin might not suffer loss in anything through us. For the sorrow that is according to the will of God produces a repentance without regret, leading to salvation. but the sorrow of the world produces death. Lord God, Your Word says that if I see a man sin and it is not a sin that leads to death, that I should pray for him and if I pray for him, You will give him life. Father God, in the Name of Jesus and in the Blood of Jesus shed for Kevin and I on the cross of Calvary, that both Kevin and I accepted as a payment for our ransom, and asked Jesus to take our sins upon Himself so that we may have life, I come before You day and night unceasingly lying my prayer and petitions before You for Kevin's life. Bring him out of captivity Lord God, give him life in You, and restore him to his land. Your Word is Your promise to us that hope in You. Please Lord God, do not hide Your face from me, reach down and rescue us from the pit. Keep Your Word Father God, show us Your mighty hand in our marriage circumstance as I do not and will not focus on the circumstance itself, but will focus on You, keeping my eyes upon You Lord, knowing that You will turn our marriage circumstance around, that You, Lord God, will reverse the curse on our marriage! I love You Lord, I thank You with all my heart. You, Lord God, are my first love, my hope, my light in the darkness, my reason for living. For the only thing worth living for has been the blessing of being chosen by You Father God, to be a heir in Your Kingdom, to be called Your child, to know that I am spoken for by You. Preserve my life Lord God, preserve Kevins life, preserve what You have joined together and make it whole in You. I praise Your Holy Name. Lord life me up and set me on the solid rock and I will endlessly sing and dance my praises to You and I will proclaim Your mighty works all the days of my life! I love and thank you Father God..forever and ever, and I ask all in the precious Name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen

I claim mine and Kevins places in Christ as victorious with Him over all the enemies of our souls. I completely surrender Kevin and I, and our marriage, to You Heavenly Father, as a living sacrifice. I choose that we not be conformed to this world. I choose that Kevin and I be transformed by the renewing of our minds. I pray that You would show Kevin and I Your will and enable us to walk in all the fullness of Your will today. Blessed Holy Spirit, I pray that You would fill Kevin and I. Come into mine and Kevins lives, break down every idol and cast out every foe.

I am thankful that You have made a provision, so that today Kevin and I can lived filled with the Spirit of God with love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, meekness, faithfulness, and self control in our lives.

Heavenly Father, I pray that now and through this day You would strengthen and enlighten Kevin and I. Show Kevin and I the way satan is hindering, tempting, lying and distorting the truth in our lives. Enable Kevin and I to be the kind of persons that would please You. Enable Kevin and I to be aggressive in prayer and in trusting You. Enable Kevin and I to be aggressive mentally, to think about and practice Your Word, and to give You Your rightful place in our lives.

Again, I pray that You, blessed Holy Spirit, would bring all the work of the crucifixion, all the work of the resurrection, all the work of the glorification, and all the work of the Penecost into mine and Kevins life and marriage today. I surrender Kevin and I, and our marriage, to You. I refuse to be dscouraged, I refuse to be defeated. For You are the God of all hope. You have proven Your power by resurrecting Jesus Christ from the dead, and I claim in every way this victory over all the satanic forces in mine and Kevins life and marriage. I pray this all in the precious Name of the Lord Jesus Christ with thanksgiving. I love and honor and bless You every day of our lives Lord, You rescue us from the snare of Your enemy because of Your unfailing love for us, and we give all praise and glory to You! Amen, Amen, Amen

Psalms 88

O Lord, the God who saves me, day and night I cry out before you. May my prayer come before you, turn your ear to my cry.

For Kevins soul is full of trouble and Kevins life draws near the grave. Kevin is counted among those who go down to the pit. Kevin is like a man without strength. Kevin is set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care.

You have put Kevin in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths. Your wrath lies heavily upon Kevin, You have overwhelmed Kevin will all Your waves. You have taken from Kevin his closest friends and have made Kevin repulsive to them. Kevin is confined and cannot escape, Kevins eyes are dim with grief.

I call to You, O Lord, every day. I spread out my hands to You. Do You show Your wonders to the dead? Do those who are dead rise up and praise You? Is Your love declared in the grave, Your faithfulness in Destruction? Are You wonders known in the place of darkness, or Your righteous deeds in the land of oblivion?

But I cry out to You for help, O Lord; in the morning my prayer comes before You. Why O Lord, do You reject Kevin and hide Your face from him?

From Kevins youth he has been afflicted and close to death; Kevin has suffered Your terrors and is in despair. Your wrath has swept over Kevin, Your terrors have destroyed Kevin. All day long they surround Kevin like a flood; they have completely engulfed Kevin. You have taken Kevins companions and loved ones from him; the darkness is Kevins closest friend.

Father God, You have Kevin confined, and he cannot turn to the left nor the right. You have hedged him in with a mighty hedge of thorns, Kevin is covered by the shed Blood of Jesus Christ who paid the ransom through that Blood for Kevins soul in order to give Kevin life, a life to live and serve You in return. This is Your covenant with Kevin, Lord God; and Kevins covenant with You when he accepted the ransom You paid for his salvation. He is your child God, bought and sealed fby the Lord Jesus Christ on the Cross of Calvary, sealed forever. Confine Kevin, hedge him in, block all those that hinder Your work in Kevin, a good work that You promise to bring to completion. Remove all peoples and activitys from Kevins life that hinder the completion of the good work You are doing in him. For it is with these peoples and activitys that the enemy uses to entice and hold Kevin in captivity to do his will. Lord God, isolate Kevin, leave him standing alone in the wilderness that he would look all about and find none to help or support him in his sin, that he will feel the empty dark void about him that sin brings and that only You can fill in his life. Block the paths of the enemys advesarys he uses to support Kevin and hold him in the bondage of sin, block their path with thorn bushes, wall Kevin in so he cannot find them. Make Kevin repulsive to even them who dwell in sin. Render Kevin impotent to sin, cast Kevin down into the deepest of pits, in the darkest depths surrounded on all sides so that he cannot turn to the left or to the right, but he can only look up and cry out to You O Lord. Do this Lord God so that Kevin may be saved as You said that if a man commits sin that does not lead to death, we should pray for him, and if we pray, you will give him life. Kevin has dwelled in sin Lord God, he has sinned against You, he has turned his back upon You, he has rejected Your ways and paths for those of the world, but he has never denied You O Lord. Kevin is Your child, he knows he belongs to You, the enemy has just placed blinders upon his eyes and taken his mind and body captive to do his will. He has not sinned in a way that leads to death, and although he faces death in the hands of Your enemy Lord God, he is still physically alive and it is not too late. I pray Thee O my Lord God, snatch him from the hand of the enemy, take back what was stolen from You, bring Your lost sheep back to the flock. I pray for Kevin Lord God, give him life now! Remove and cast away all peoples and things of the enemy that bind Kevin and set Kevin free, give Kevin life. This is Your Word Lord God, Your promise and I know that You will never let Your Word return void. I lift Kevin up in Your Word, with the assurance that You will move upon him and rescue him and return him to life, one worthy of his position as a child of the Kingdom of God. I praise and I worship You Lord God, You only are worthy. You only are the hope upon which all of us, who have suffered attack by the enemy, place our lives and the lives of those the enemy has stolen from us. Father God, I know that You will return what the enemy has taken from us in such a way that goes beyond our highest expectations in our circumstance, and we praise You for it! We anxiously await the great testimony to Your miracle power. A miracle that will display itself to many that know our spouses and our situations, those who are bound in sin and held captive by the enemy by choice, those of such that will see this manifestation of Your hand and Your works, and it will turn them towards You Lord God. Glory Glory! How the angels will sing in Heaven as one lost soul coming to You Lord outweights 99 who do not need redemption. The Heavens will burst forth in song many times over the work You are about to do in my spouse and in our life and marriage that is going to turn the heads of so many towards You Lord God! Let all creatures honor You O God, let all creatures bow at Your Holy Name. Thank You for loving myself and Kevin, so much that You would give Your only begotten Son to die for us, so that we may live! To give us life! You will not let this return void Father God, I know this. The ransom was paid for Kevin, and it is sealed. I pray for him Father God, and You will give him life again in Jesus Christ! I love You as my first love now and always, and I will forever stay in obedience to You and follow all Your decrees and ways. I worship You and humble myself before You, I give my all to You Lord, and thank You for keeping me. Amen, Amen, Amen

Kathy,
It is only important if it is the house that your and spouse shared together and important because whenever the enemy comes in like a flood such as this, it is because someone or something opened a door to allow him to come in. You are under Gods wing of protection, so the enemy flooding in means that when he knocked someone answered the door for him. This could have even happened from unGodly movies, books or magazines in the house, even Harry Potter stuff if you have kids. Which was something important I should have added in with the annointing the house, clean it out first, all the unGodly junk, and it seems we all have some somewhere between us and kids. Clean and burn, then annoint. I am going to paste the annointing process taught to me a couple years ago. But if it is not the home you shared, say you separated and you moved in with your parents, that is not a problem. If it actually is the home you lived in together, say you lived with your parents or something, then use Holy water instead and just do it when no'one is around if able, or do what you can when everyone else is asleep. Below is what a lady who helped me a couple years ago sent to me, and you can do the same with holy water, just mix up some salt water and pray a blessing over it like the oil. This below is for if you are not able to go purchase annointing oil at a Bible store, which I prefer to do when I can.

Get a bottle of pure olive oil. I just have mine in a small old pill bottle and I have taken a cotton ball and put that in there so that you don't end up with oil all over the place because you only need a dab on the tip of your finger. Take the bottle in your hands, and say the following:

"IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, I NOW BLESS THIS OIL FOR THE PURPOSES OF GOD IN HIS WORK. IT IS HOLY."

Once you start cleaning your house don't stop for anything, keep on going.

Unplug the phone, and know that you will not be disturbed by anyone or anything.

Turn on the radio to praise music or put in a long praise tape to play. Make sure is not one you will have to stop what you are doing to flip it to other side. If you don't have this equipment capability, then don't do the tape. While it is playing, pray the following retaliation prayer:

"IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, I ASK FOR PROTECTION OVER MYSELF, MY FAMILY, POSSESSIONS, PETS, AND ALL THAT CONCERNS ME. I ASK FOR GUIDANCE FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT IN ALL THINGS THAT TAKE PLACE HERE THIS DAY."

Next, identify mentally where the greatest problem area is. Do the door way of the room last so there is an exit. Should it be in the master bedroom, then begin at the farthest part of the house as you will want to conclude in that room. Think of yourself as herding cattle into a narrowing chute. It's wide open where there is little activity, but is gradually narrowing as you work through the house to the worse place.

Starting at the farthest room from the strongest demonic activity, take the oil, put a very small amount on your finger tip, and continuing around ALL of the external openings of any kind, make the sign of the cross (not the X) at the top of the opening (getting something to stand on if needed), and on the sides. For example, at the front door, same as the Hebrews did on the first Passover night when they put the blood there. Do this for windows, doors, whatever opens to the outside. Before you start have the last room that you are going to do with a window or a door open so that if anything has to get out it can. When you go into the last room bless the door first so that nothing goes back on you. When you are finished ask for the Blood of the Lamb to be poured over the outside of your whole house and yard and to fill every nook and cranny and also to cover the ground under the house as well.

While making the cross with the oil, say the following:

"I COMMAND ALL EVIL TO LEAVE FROM THIS ROOM (CLOSET, PORCH, WHATEVER) AND NEVER TO RETURN. NO EVIL CAN ENTER THROUGH THIS PORTAL AGAIN. IT IS FORBIDDEN. I SEND ALL EVIL ENTITIES TO THE OUTER DARKNESS, AS IT IS WRITTEN, TO REMAIN
THERE UNTIL THEIR DAY OF JUDGMENT BY THE ALMIGHTY GOD."

While working your way through your home very carefully, continue to do these things very methodically. Don't leave anything out. Be very open and careful to listen to the Holy Spirit while doing this. If He points out something and says it should go, then don't even hesitate a moment, it should go. There may be no apparent reason, but trust HIM. I would always rather err on the side of God than evil.

As a word of caution, things may become a bit more difficult as you progress toward the worse problem area. You may become sleepy, or distracted by any number of things, or even confused. You have to remain focused while doing this. What is happening to you is demonic oppression. It may worsen the closer you get to the worse room, but stay focused it won't be anything that you can't handle in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Should you become aware of a specific demonic presence, deal with it immediately. Take authority over it, and command it to leave. Again, a word of caution. DO NOT stop once you have begun. You are angering the demonic forces in doing this. This is a very powerful thing that you are doing, and they know it, probably better than you do. They know you will win over them if you just don't quit. Their only real defense is to get you to quit.

Oh, and I will try to post more prayers here today sometime. The Lord was giving me some things in church yesterday, so wanted to share, but I really want to read the books the are coming from first.

God bless one and all! And He will! Praise God!

Hi Kristie,
I remember you from september, when I first joined the board. I had wondered what had happened, all I heard was that your marriage was restored. Your faith and courage are so inspiring. I noticed you talked about getting sleepy when praying. Many times during marriage vigils, I have been overwhelmed by sleep during prayer times. Also, whenever I dedicate myself to sitting and listening for God's voice, I get really tired. This has been going on for months, and I am just now realizing this is demonic opposition. Any suggestions to overcome?

Keisha,
If the enemy comes in during prayer and makes you sleepy, then change at that time to praise and worship. Pump up the volume so to speak. Put on some spirit filled praise and worship music and get up and dance and sing with the music just like King David did. God inhabits the praise and worship of His people. Praise and worship will not only drive the enemy clear away, it will bring victory! Praise and worship is probably more important then prayer even, because it focuses on God and not your circumstance. God knows your circumstance, God has it in hand already, so to just praise and worship brings you directly into His presense, takes you right to His throneroom, and this is where breakthroughs are claimed. King David was no dummy! :-)

Kathey,
Then do not worry about it, the fact that you do not get to cleanse and bless your home is not going to stop God from restoring your marriage. For those of us whose spouses are the ones who left the home, trust me, they took those demon influences with them and wherever the spouse settled in, so did the demons. Most of us have had to depend on just prayer and faith to move the mountain and did not have a situation where we could be annointing the things of our spouses...because they were gone out in the wilderness. Kimberlys situation is actually a fortunate one, having him there still and if she can get and stay focused and not let the enemy mess with her mind, she can win this fight without him ever being removed from their home. Most of us could not do it, I couldnt...God had to take him out from in front of me to get me focused. Now that I walked through that fire and recieved that refining, I could do it without a blink probably, but I had to go through that fire, and almost all of us do. That is why I have reassured Kimberly that this could happen and if it does, do not think for one second this was a defeat..it is just a game plan, a stategy of the Lords to get her focused and to the new level He is taking her to, and to also break the enemy off her spouse. Again the wilderness is absolutely no fun. Even if they are living with the other woman in the wilderness, like mine did, it was a nightmare...God truly makes that other woman a bitter gall in his stomach. You pray that scripture when the spouse is in adultery, and you will see it work! Definition of the wilderness: Gods woodshed that sits on the back 40, the very back of the back 40! There is no physical and spiritual beating like the wilderness. Your spouse is in the wilderness. When you came to the point of separation, that is what God was doing. If you gave your marriage to God, and it has ended up in this separation despite that, it has done so because of a lack of faith and trust that God could fix this, the inability to focus on God instead of your situation and the pain of your situation...this because the enemy does torment your mind...that is part of his game plan, he works on both of you. And this is what I am doing my best to get Kimberly, you and anyone else in this battle to do, close your mind off to the enemies lies, stay eye to eye with God, believe Him and His promises of victory...not what you see and hear.

If you can, sneak and annoint the outside of his vehicle maybe, but again do not think that it will hinder Gods hand in the situation if you cannot. Pray the thorned hedge around him, and a firey wall, ask God to place angels around that, all to barricade out the enemy and all things and people the enemy uses to influence him. Pray the blood of Jesus over him and your marriage. You will have victory, God does not say you will only have victory if you do this or that. I consider it works of faith, and doing works of faith helps boost your faith as well. But it is not the oil or the blessing itself that removes the enemy, it is the faith that it does...it is all about faith, you cannot please God without faith, you cannot win a war on the enemy without God. Just have faith that the victory in this is yours by the word of Gods promises, by the word of Gods will, because He said it, so you can bank it! Glory Halleujah! Praise God for the victory!

God bless you....

I promise that I will try to get time here to work up more scriptural prayers. God gave me one Sunday and I planned on posting by Monday, but have been otherwise detained..but the detainment has been of good cause, God just had other things He needed me to do first, that took priority. And the enemy threw in a attack that used up some time, but Glory Be, all will be fine. I do at the moment have one more request I need to attend to in service to God, so barring anything else God calls me to do, I will get the prayer He gave me Sunday typed up and posted. He is also telling me to clean my house! lol! Well...maybe it was not Him telling me that...but I am sure He is thinking about moving out as much as I am if it does not get done soon! :-)

God bless..

hi hope you are doing good. you said praying the thorned hedge around him. how do i do that. it is just a prayer or is it something in the bible. thank you again. today was a tad bit better. love you kathy

Actually, I am seriously under attack, the old boy is mad at me for trying to help all of you. Guess that is just okay, it is said that if he is coming at you it just means that you are accomplishing things. If he left you alone that would mean that you are no threat to him. I want to be a threat to him, and not just a threat, but a conqueror!

It is scriptural, the hedge of thorns, and I think, thought, it was contained within one of the prayers posted here already, but I would have to go look. Which I will do. I am not sure what is here and what is not, so I need to anyway because God has laid it on my heart to single the prayer helps out and post them separately so those here have easy access to exactly what they are praying over, such as the prayer against adultery.

I will try to do that here soon tonight so you can have that, I know you would feel more empowered with it, and that is important. :-)

God bless!

Hedge of Thorns Scripture:
Hosea 6

Therefore I will hedge up ______'s way with thorns, and I will build a wall against ______ so that he cannot find his paths. And ______ will pursue his lovers, but will not overtake them; and ______ will seek them, but will not find them. Then _______ will say, "I will go back to my wife. For it was better for me then than now!" Therefore I will allure _______, bring ________ into the wilderness, and speak kindly to _______. For I will remove the names of Baals from ________'s mouth. Then the Lord said to me, "Go again, love _________ yet an adulterer.

This is only a small section of the Prayer against adultery, but this is a great verse to pray daily around your spouse, and even after restoration, pray this every morning for protection around your spouse. I will post the entire pray against adultery, but will do so in a new thread labeled such so everyone who needs it will take note that it is there and it will not be lost to some because it is buried here in this thread. People come here in a panic requesting prayer for their situations and never move beyond their post, therefore mising a lot of things that would be a great help to them just because they are so focused in the panic on their urgent need of man to pray them out. Looking for man to save them, as if their prayers are not worthy enough to reach Heaven. We all do it! lol! Intercession is excellent and necessary, but often I feel like the real benefit that comes from intercession is the reward it reaps us when we do it for others, more then what it really brings the person you are praying for. Praying for one another in the midst of our own trials brings the miracle needed in our own, I truly believe that. It is another way of sacrifice..when you can lift someone else up when you are so weak, that is sacrificing yourself, making a offering to God. The ending of the scripture I posted yesterday, "and remember to pray for all the saints"...which means remember to pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ, for their needs, a key to God tending your need. :-) So, I will post it very noticibly so they may not miss it..let it scream out to them! lol!

Kristie,

I knew God led me here to this board for prayer and my situation for a reason. You are truly blessed through your hardship that your husband and you have endured by the Grace of God. I know that God led me here to seek you out and your advice on matters of my marriage as well to include your wisdom gained and the prayers of conviction that you share with us. I have gone and cut and paste your many prayers and have emailed them to myself at home. I know I will be busy "tweaking" them just slighty for my situation (names mainly). So many times I have been under attack just this last week as I have truly been fighting and turning my back on satan and his deception and have continued praying for my wifes deliverance and the restoration of our marriage. And now seeing your prayers here, has given me even more direction of prayer and for strength. Kristie, as I have said before, if you read my postings on my situation, I greatly welcome any other advice and prayer for myself and my wife in this situation.
