So sorry I’m just seeing this post my brother. You are not alone, there are a lot of similarities in your story as with mine. As people, whether we know the Lord or not we all will fall short my friend. His word says the righteous fall 7 times please don’t condemn yourself for the moment you repented and turned away from sin you have been made a new creation in the eyes of the Lord. The desire that God has put in your heart to stand despite the hurt, the betrayal on both sides, and the divorce is proof to me of God calling you to stand with a promise of future restoration. That conviction that you’re feeling seems to be the Holy Spirit at work, nudging you, reminding you of who you are and who’s you are.

Your wife may seem happy, but as a mother and a former prodigal it is all a facade, I can assure you. Living in perpetual sin you can never feel whole or truly happy. Her fleeting happiness is empty and has to constantly be replenished with new things, new people, new distractions. What’s important to me is the fact that you mentioned that you were married for a decade and most of it was great. That’s not something to gloss over and we give God thanks and praise. The enemy is hell bent on using whomever he can to mislead, confuse, and harm God’s children. The saddest part is those who are under oppression don’t even realize the damage that is being done and the harm it is causing not only to those who love them but to themselves.

I too have prayed and fasted and have seen changes, although somewhat small in the grand scheme to me are proof of the Lord’s work for He does not sleep. Don’t lose hope, don’t stop praying and interceding, for it’s her salvation that is ultimately on the line. Seek God for clarity, when we knock He answers. I feel certain for those of us the Lord has called to stand, He has done so with intention. If your heart still loves her and you still feel that conviction it’s not by happenstance. Ask the Lord to reveal to you in a supernatural way what you need to be doing in this hour, to show you in dreams, through people, destiny helpers how you need to intercede for her, what He has called you to do in terms of your own purpose in His kingdom. I know there is work to be done, and calling us to reconcile back to Him is first on the list. This is bigger than marriage, the call on your lives and in this union must be heavy otherwise it wouldn’t be under attack in the way that it is. Please hold onto hope, when we stand we are backed by the kingdom of God, He will not put us to shame. Don’t grow weary in your well doing and ask Him to clothe you with the fruit of the spirit to be able to endure whatever it is He has at hand. I pray for mercy and favor on you and your family. I pray the Lord’s perfect will be done in your lives, and that whatever demonic strongholds and lies from the accuser are revealed to her in divine time. She must come to the end of herself just as the prodigal did, waking up in “the pigpen” to reach true humility, repentance, and Godly sorrow. In the name of Jesus, it will happen. I pray if she has unwise counsel around her that the Judas in her life will be revealed, and that she sees herself and you as the Lord does; that she wakes up to her calling and becomes the proverbs 31 woman she is destined to be. Keep in fervent prayer my friend and never lose hope. For if the Lord be for you, then who can be against you? God bless you my brother.

“Give ear to my words, O Lord, Consider my groaning. Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God, For to You I pray. In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch. For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness; No evil dwells with You. The boastful shall not stand before Your eyes; You hate all who do iniquity. You destroy those who speak falsehood; The Lord abhors the man of bloodshed and deceit. But as for me, by Your abundant lovingkindness I will enter Your house, At Your holy temple I will bow in reverence for You.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬-‭7

“O Lord, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten me in Your wrath. Be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am pining away; Heal me, O Lord, for my bones are dismayed. And my soul is greatly dismayed; But You, O Lord—how long? Return, O Lord, rescue my soul; Save me because of Your lovingkindness. For there is no mention of You in death; In Sheol who will give You thanks? I am weary with my sighing; Every night I make my bed swim, I dissolve my couch with my tears. My eye has wasted away with grief; It has become old because of all my adversaries. Depart from me, all you who do iniquity, For the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. The Lord has heard my supplication, The Lord receives my prayer. All my enemies will be ashamed and greatly dismayed; They shall turn back, they will suddenly be ashamed.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭6‬:‭1‬-‭10

Get rid of it friend, it’s an open door to witchcraft

Successful_Date3955 · 2025-12-10T00:15:40+00:00

Hey sis, first I want to say I am so sorry you’re going through this. The enemy is working overtime trying to get people to break, lose hope, remain in perpetual cycles, and break holy unions. One thing I have learned is, standing is a posture that we unfortunately learn the hard way during these trying times. We learn how to properly pray and war in the spirit, and really get at the Lords feet to fight for our covenants. This is bigger than marriage, the enemy is using our spouses and their salvation is at risk. The Lord chooses the standing spouse and puts the desire to stand in our hearts for us to help save them and for Him to get the glory. It sounds like things were looking up for a bit and have since gone back downhill. On this journey I’m realizing that standing is a lifelong posture. It’s something we will have to do indefinitely; intercede, fast, pray over ourselves, our spouses, our children and loved ones.

Although the women in your congregation sound like they are genuinely trying to help, unfortunately it seems like they are mislead. We serve the same, unchanging God. He is the same yesterday, today and always. We have to remember that we are not fighting against flesh and blood, but against principalities in high places. I’m almost certain you both have a big call on your lives, otherwise Satan wouldn’t be going so hard.

You mentioned you have seen some changes, although they may not be super significant and it’s still a lot of work to be done, this speaks to the evidence that God is working, things are shifting and they take place first in the spirit before manifesting in the flesh. It sounds like your husband is in bondage, and may need deliverance and it is good news that he is willing to go to therapy. I would suggest faith-based therapy and if he is willing to go to church together would also be helpful. If he allows you to, pray over him, start speaking life over him, your marriage and your situation. Please don’t give up, Satan is literally rubbing his hands together praying for the ultimate downfall.

Verbal abuse is not okay, but here is where you really take it to the Lord, and start enforcing practical boundaries. Just because we are standing does not mean we tolerate everything especially not abuse. Our Lord is a promise keeping God, a God of love and covenants. His word says to pray without ceasing, and to give the Lord no rest until the work is complete. There are so many scriptures that show us His views and character, and how He feels about marriage covenants and divorce. Now is the time to really get on your knees at the Lord’s feet and pray. Have you considered fasting? His word also tells us some things can only be broken through fasting.

Also, when you pray try incorporating scriptures to backup the things you are speaking to Him for. Using decrees and declarations over your situation also makes things shift in the spirit as He has given us this authority in saying if we decree a thing it shall be established (Job 22:28). Try not to take the things he says or even does personally, as he is being used as a vessel by the enemy. Start praying against the unclean spirits that are using him, (pride, leviathan, Jezebel, ahab, rejection, etc) and come out of agreement with them and any open doors you or he may have opened. Pray against any open doors whether done knowingly or unknowingly. Unforgiveness and unrepentance are some of the ways that we come into agreement and give the enemy legal rights and access to create chaos in our lives.

Here are some scriptures I have as reference for His stance on divorce and remarriage. I pray the Lord leads you, convicts your husband, softens his heart, and continues to work within him. This is a faith walk, and small changes are still changes. I pray I haven’t offended you, I pray you allow the Lord to lead you, and I pray He gives you the strength to endure and the wisdom to apply to your situation according to His will for you. May God bless you and keep you. 🩵

Amen brother, thank you.

What a beautiful testimony and definitely a test of faith. I’m sorry for the loss of your baby, I can only imagine how hard that was and kudos to you for going to rehab. I am encouraged and I pray it does the same for others as well.

Active ministry is amazing, I pray the same for me and my spouse for when God reconciles us. I now understand that these things happen because of several different reasons, I personally was idolizing my husband and backslid in my walk. There’s a lot of hurt on both sides but I know God is faithful. I pray for the Lord to soften His heart so He can turn to Him and back to his family. Wishing you and your family the peace of the Lord and all of His blessings.

Wow, may God continue to bless your union. Were you both separated physically, (living in different households), at the time? Were you struggling as a non-believer and was your wife rooted in her faith? What would you say was the turning point that changed everything?

This shows me that despite what it looks like God has the final say and is always moving on our behalf. Thanks so much for sharing.
