Please pray for the restoration of my marriage to Kevin. My husband committed adultery and obtained a divorce to be with the adulteress Katy. He says their relationship is over now (I'm doubtful) and we are talking about reconciliation. He blames his adultery and the divorce on me and is extremely angry about everything. He is also drinking a lot, which started around the same time as the adultery. I am devastated and I feel like I'm fighting a battle with evil, and each time I gain ground, it comes back stronger. Please pray for us and our marriage to be restored.
Please, pray that my husband would be sheltered from temptations and evil, pray that he would turn back to God, pray that his heart would soften and he would forgive me for things I did wrong and restore his love and trust for me, pray that he would see his wrongs and start to treat me with love and respect, and pray that our marriage would be restored.
Pray that I would react to my husband with love & peace, pray that God would heal my heart, spirit, soul and mind, pray that God would give me strength & peace & wisdom, pray that I will be a better wife and be able to show that to my husband, pray for our reconciliation.
Also, please pray for the adulteress and any other women my husband has or is involved with. Pray that they would turn back to God and that they would not have any influence on or access to my husband.
Thank you

I can't imagine taking him back without
repentance on his part and you say there is none
You must safe guard yourself
His sin is His sin
Until he recognises this
you are going to be blamed for everything
Is that what you want?
he is not offering much.
Set stipulations, counseling, stopping drinking etc...
If he is willing to work with you
You have a chance
If not you have nothing more
than a hotel stay until the next blame scenario begins.
She probably dumped him
and he is not back because he values you
but you may be his only immeadiate option.
I know this is harsh and you are so tender
You must be wise to get what you want (a saved marriage)
and to not be hurt and treated as a doormat
Jesus
I ask for this woman to be strong
to set standards for her life
Let her not be a victim and vulnerable anymore
God her husband is emotionally abusive
and she has been hurt, betrayed and lied to
and to add insult to injury, this man
who claims to love her blames her for
his lies, infidelity and betrayal.
He is boastful without remorse
He has left her emotionally bankrupt
God this is not what you meant for her
and she does have a right to be free of this man
Yet she still loves him and her heart is pulled
Show her what to do without her emotions being pulled
If she is going to evoke change in this man
and give her marriage a chance
she must not let the door swing open
without effort on his part.
He must feel what he has lost and to get into
this nest of comfort again
he must change.
God open his heart to being saved
to going to church and to making changes.
If not give her the strength to shut the door
with the options out there
He is in your hands and we trust you with him
even when he is on the outside.
God, being loving is never the absence of standards and truth.
It does not mean she is a doormat to his mood swings
trying to be the perfect person
catering to him without confronting his issues.
Remove the temptations from him
Convict him of his sin...
Convict him of his need for a Savior
Convict him to repent
and hold this dear woman close...

Lord I pray and lift up this couple to you Jesus. They have had troubles and only have more to endure Lord. I pray that you take up Kevin Jesus, open up his eyes to his sin and let him give up all of his sin for your glory Lord. Let him see his wrong and repent. Let him beg for your forgiveness and look to his wife as his one and only mate. Let him see and know your forgiveness comes only through his confession of all of his wrong doings.
And Jesus guide our sister to your love. Let her see that she is beautiful and blamless in her husbands transgressions. Let her know that her husbands anger towards her is in itself evil and sinful and she deserves to be treated so much better. Remember sister your husband is supposed to love you as Jesus loved the church.
And Lord please work on Katy. Let her see that she needs you more than ever. Jesus you have worked in and used so many misguided women. Show her through your patience and perserverence that your love is the only love she needs or should desire.
Jesus I just pray you work in these three people! Guide them to your plan for them Jesus. Let Kevin love his wife as you intended her to be loved Jesus, Let our sister look to be loved and respected as you mean for her to be, and let Katy look to you Jesus and find the love she so desprately needs in you Lord. Save these hearts God from the devil's evil and destructive ways. Lead them to your Glory! In Jesus's name Amen!

I am sorry, but I cannot pray for your reconciliation with Kevin.
He hasn't even started dealing with the problems that destoyed you both.
Please stand on your two feet, and have some self respect.
Release him to the Lord, and move on with your life.
Be sure and forgive him for everything so that you can go free.
If he chooses to do his personal work and become someone that you would consider marrying, then we can pray for reconciliation.
Would you advise someone else to marry this man who is drinking, angry and blaming you for his adultery?
I don't think so.
Lord, I come to you in prayer for this dear friend of ours.
Please give her the strength and the courage to release Kevin to you and get on with her life.
I ask you to lead Kevin in the way you want him to go.
I bless them both with healing and wholeness.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
