another bad choice

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Please, could anyone pray for me, I don't have the gift of prayer, I have a gift of making bad choices for myself.

After having one husband who was a heavy gambler, I marry another who is a hopeless alcoholic (he lied about this, and has now stopped drinking altogether). But he is constantly angry, Why is he so angry? It's like he is resentful of me for making him stop drinking. Now I think him drinking is better than this constant verbal and emotional abuse.

I am so ashamed, my parents don't know or my friends as I keep it to myself but I cannot put up anymore with his anger. I thought I had learnt my lesson well.

Please pray so that Lord will give me strength to leave and face my own fears or that I stay and help him. I would really like to go on my own, but somehow I am gutless.

Thank you.

First of all making bad decisions is not a gift...it is natural, we all do it. God's wisdom is what keeps us from making so many more.

Another thing, there is no such thing as "hopeless"...take that word out of your vocabulary. Life and death are in the power of the tongue, so please try not to speak too many negative things into your life.

God, I pray that You intervene in this woman's life. Heal and restore her marriage. God, I ask that you give her and her husband peace. Father I pray that you give her wisdom, and courage in dealing with her husband. I ask Lord that You reveal to her the path for her life that You want her to take. I pray a hedge of protection around her home in Jesus' name. I pray Lord that You draw this couple together through Your divine love. Cement their hearts together, bring Your divine love into this relationship. Help them both to grow in Your Word. I pray all this and believe that You will answer in Jesus mighty name!! AMEN!

Lord Jesus I ask that You send the Holy Spirit onto KoKo and her husband to convict and to guide them both into a close relationship with You. Father heal thier spirits and remove any influences Satan has over thier marriage that they may be one in You. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.

You must realize alcoholism is a disease and stopping to drink is the first step but not the only step. You cannot make someone drink or not to drink. These choices have to come from your husband and there is nothing you can do about what he chooses to do. Get help for yourself and pray he does the same. There is no shame in loving someone your
family does not approve of. (I lost the man I love because I listened to my family instead of following my heart). We all make mistakes but it's what we learn from these mistakes that counts. Satan seems to enjoy destroying lives but we must not let him. I pray God will send you and your husband a miracle to have a stronger relationship.

lord i pray for this relationship , i pray against satan and the anger he is bringing in this home to hinder it. i pray for healing and restoration, and im claiming it in yur name. lord i pray against the doubts being placed in her head, and lord take away her feeling of being a victim, let her know that she is not responsible for the pain she feels and bring peace into her heart.

koko i also wanted to say to you that god hears all prayers, dont worry about if the way you are praying is wrong, singing a song to god is a form of prayer. just keep praying and god will give you the words.
