I know God is such a merciful and great God. He loves each and everyone of us and wants to see only the best for us. I ask that you join me in praying for the salvation of my marriage. Please let my husband forgive me and come back home to his family. We love him dearly and he is just struggling with some issues that make his path unclear. Please ask that God speaks to his heart so he is reassured that he is very important and that he is very loved. He doesn't need to be resentful and angry for things in his childhood that were out of his control. Please pray that God encourages only words of honesty out of his mouth and that he be protected from the friends who try and draw him closer to a unhealthy life. Bring him back home where he is loved and give him the strength to stand up for his family even though it is not a popular concept with his friends. Reassure him it is not a sign of weakness to be with the family you love, but it takes a great man to do what is right.

I wanted to thank everybody who has prayed for the salvation of my marriage. It appeared as though my husband's heart was softening a bit until he stayed to drink with his friends after work last night. He still blames me for the failure of our marriage of 13 years. It seems as though the enemy is hard at work to keep him apart from his family. Please continue to pray for my husband to forgive me and to give me a second chance.
I also ask Gods forgiveness for any sins that are blocking his blessings.

Precious Lord, I lift Sarita's husband up before Your mighty throne of mercy. Father, remove the blinders from his eyes. He is so deceived. He thinks that the way that he is living his life is right and harmless, but Father, we know that is not true. Father, it is my prayer that he runs from the darkness and seek Your divine light. I pray that he will change and be the husband that You have ordained him to be. Father, speak to her and let her know that You have her husband in the palms of Your life-changing hands. Grant her peace and serenity as the change in her husband takes place. I pray In Jesus' Name. Amen

Well I think I may have received the answer to my prayer. Although it is not the answer I wanted and it is so devestating. I finally determined why my husband doesn't want to come back. I just found out today he has girlfriend he has been seeing. She knows he is married, but still chooses to see him. The thing that makes this so difficult is that we have an 8 yr old son and he will be the one suffering the most. If this woman doesn't care that she is seeing a married man she will certainly not want to have my son around. I need prayer more than ever. I keep thinking that God is talking loud and clear to me by letting me find out about this other woman. While God doesn't want divorce he probably doesn't people to make a big fool out of me.

Lord we ask for Godly influences in this husbands life. Lord remove those that hinder him from doing what is right. We pray for your conviction upon this husband that he will see what he is doing to his family. Guide his steps lord and may he not rest until he follows you and your word. We pray for this wife lord that you bless her for the stand that she is taking for her marriage, give her comfort during this time. We ask that you remove all hurts and that they become a distant memory in their lives. Renew their marriage, return to them all that satan is trying to destory. Allow this husband to love his wife they way he should.

I just wanted to provide an update. It turns out the woman my husband is seeing is a married woman still living at home with her husband and children. I please ask God to speak to her heart so that she can restore her marriage with her own husband. Please pray with me. I don't wish anybody ill will I just pray for God's guidance so that she is led on the right path instead of the path of the enemy.
Please open my husband's eyes so that he may see the truth of the situation. In Jesus name I pray.

KJV Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. 31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.
KJV 1 Peter 4:7 ...Watch unto prayer. 8 And above all things have fervent charity among yourselves: for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
KJV Ephesians 5:1 Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; 2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
KJV 2 Timothy 2:22 ...Follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes. 24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient, 25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth; 26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
KJV Matthew 18:18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. 20 ...Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
KJV Ephesians 1:15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints, 16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers; 17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: 18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints, 19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power, 20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places, 21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come.
KJV Ephesians 6:10 ...Be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. 18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.
KJV Philippians 4:1 ...Stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved. 4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
KJV Matthew 6:5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. 7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. 9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
KJV Luke 11:5 And he said unto them, Which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight, and say unto him, Friend, lend me three loaves; 6 For a friend of mine in his journey is come to me, and I have nothing to set before him? 7 And he from within shall answer and say, Trouble me not: the door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed; I cannot rise and give thee. 8 I say unto you, Though he will not rise and give him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needeth. 9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 11 If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent? 12 Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion? 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
KJV 1 Kings 9:3 And the LORD said unto him, I have heard thy prayer and thy supplication, that thou hast made before me....
KJV Joel 2:19 Yea, the LORD will answer and say unto his people,.... 21 Fear not;...be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great things. 22 Be not afraid.... 25 ...I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. 26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
KJV Romans 5:1 ...Being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: 2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. 5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

I'm so lost and nothing has changed. I really thought things were improving and that there was some hope left, but the anger that husband feels keeps coming back to the surface and he refuses to give us another chance. We were getting along so well for the past couple of weeks so I felt like he was trying to work towards making things better, but he told me he doesn't want to come back. I'm so confused because my heart was really telling me it was going to be okay. I thought my prayers were finally being answered and that God was speaking to his heart to make things better. I just feel like the enemy has a stronger hold on him and no matter how hard I try the enemy seems to keep winning. I have been praying to God every single day and it seemed like every word I thought was from Him was telling me not to give up on my marriage and my family. Every word was telling me that everything was possible if I just believed and asked. I try to be a good person, but I really feel like it is the people doing all the bad things are getting God's favor. I have asked God to forgive me for whatever I did to that keeps my prayers from being answered. I ask for forgiveness over and over and I guess I just haven't earned his favor. Please pray for me and my marriage. Maybe if other people keep praying He has to answer. I know He can fix everything. He makes miracles happen everyday. Please God forgive me and help me be an example of Your Grace and Mercy. Please Dear God.

'I know He (God) can fix everything.'
I am sorry, dear, but that just isn't true.
Your husband has free will and God will not force him to choose you.
'I guess I just haven't earned his favor.'
I am sorry, dear, but that one isn't true either.
Your husband, (let's call him 'that rat'), may not care for you but GOD LOVES YOU.
GOD has always loved you and will continue to do so.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO EARN GOD'S FAVOR.
HE HAS ANSWERED your prayers, but he can't just zap it all back to the way you want it.
Please be comforted in God's love.
He adores you and hurts with you.
Keep telling him the truth and how you REALLY feel.
I truly believe that God has a wonderful plan for your life no matter what choice your husband makes!
Praying for you...
