I stumbled across this prayer the day that my husband left for across the country. He allowed me to pray it over him before I left. I have prayed this prayer multiple timesn desperation. I feel this prayer is so amazing it needs to be shared I do not know where I found this prayer, so if this is your writing please comment with the link. My husband is living in bondage and sin, with a confused adulterer. I pray for both of their hearts to realize that what they are doing is destructive and only causing harm. I pray for the adulterous women to find hope in Jesus. I pray that she would turn away from a married man. Dear Lord save them from themselves.
ok... here is the prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for leading [spouses name] and I to acknowledge our offense and feel our guilt. I thank You that we can seek Your face in our affliction and distress; and that we seek and require You earnestly. (Hosea 5:15) Thank You that the purpose for which You [allowed us to be torn] apart was to [show us our need for You] and return to You so You would heal us and bind up our wounds. I thank You that You are [even] now reviving and restoring us so we may live in your presence forever. (Hosea 6:1-2) Thank You for saving us from our distress when we call out in [times of] trouble. Thank You Father for sending Your Word and for healing our Marriage and rescuing us from destruction. Thank You for Your unfailing love and for Your wonderful deeds. (Psalm 107:19-21) And thank You Lord for your kindness, tolerance, and patience with us – and for the time You give us to turn from our sin. (Romans 2:4) And that we listen to You and will live in security with confident trust and without fear of harm or evil. (Proverbs 1:33)
I rejoice [in You] Lord and give You glory, praise and honor, that [spouses name] and I love each other and will live together in harmony with sympathy, compassion and humility – and that we inherit blessings because we do not return evil for evil or insult for insult, but [we] respond with blessings instead. (1 Peter 3:8) [Thank You that we can] live by [Your] Spirit [that teaches us] not to gratify the desires of our sinful nature. (Galatians 5:16]
I thank you Lord that [spouses name] lives with me in considerate understanding and respect for my role as his wife so his prayers will not be hindered. (1 Peter 3:7) I praise You that everything we have been through has not quenched his love for me [neither has it quenched my love for him] – and neither have floods or rivers washed it away. (Song of Solomon 8:7) [Thank You Father for honoring and answering my prayer of faith] that he does not feel harsh, bitter or resentful toward me because he loves me as his own body and as Christ loves the Church. (Ephesians 5:28} I thank You that our life is blessed with the rewards of fidelity and that [spouses name] rejoices in me as the wife of his youth. (Proverbs 5:17-18) and that he longs to kiss me [with the kisses of his mouth] because my love delights him. (Song of Solomon 1:2) – and that I will always satisfy him; that he is forever captivated by my love. (Proverbs 5:19}
I praise Your holy Name because I belong to my husband and his desire is for me. (Song of Solomon 7:10) [I thank You] that You bless me Lord by surrounding me with favor as with a shield and [that You] give me favor in [spouses name] eyes above every other woman on earth. (Psalm 5:12) I praise You Lord that I am his wife forever by the Marriage vows we made before You in righteousness, justice, unfailing love and compassion. (Hosea 2:19) [I thank You] that You have made us ONE in flesh and spirit – and that You are a Witness to our Marriage Covenant; [a Witness] that I am his companion and wife. I thank You that he will not break faith with me as his partner and the wife of his youth and that You will receive his offerings with pleasure. May he also guard himself and his spirit by not breaking faith with You because You hate divorce and You hate it when a man covers himself with such violence. (Malachi 2:13-16)
Thank You Lord, that [spouses name] never forgets your teachings and that he keeps Your commands in his heart, and that Your Word is [alive and] working in our Marriage [and that] he will not be deceived by the persuasive words of the adulteress who would lead him astray – [neither will he] be seduced by her smooth talk. (Proverbs 7:21)
[I praise You for the] wisdom [that] enters his heart – and [that] Knowledge is pleasant to his soul. I thank You that discretion protects him, and that understanding guards him. (Proverbs 2:10-11) I thank You Lord, and give you all the honor and the glory and the praise that the gates of hell [cannot] prevail against us or our Marriage because we are Your Church. Jesus said the powers of hell could not conquer us. (Matthew 16:18)
[Heavenly Father, I thank You that] we will inherit a double portion in our Marriage as You repay and restore [the years that] the locusts [have eaten] – that they were sent among us to destroy. (Joel 2:25) And I praise You for giving us Your Words and Wisdom, and that our Marriage will overcome all adversaries because the enemy cannot contradict or resist them. (Luke 21:15) [I praise You] for giving us everlasting joy and a double portion instead of shame – and that instead of disgrace we will rejoice in our inheritance. (Isaiah 61:7)
I praise You Lord, that [spouses name] will once again acknowledge [and confess] You [as his Lord and Savior] and that You won’t let anyone take him out of your hands – even if You take away his prosperity and expose him and put an end to all of his celebrations because he forgot You. I thank You Lord for alluring him back by leading him into the desert and speaking tenderly to him while he is there. I thank You for restoring what was lost and for transforming our valley of trouble into a gateway of hope. I give You all the praise and honor and glory because he will return to me and give himself to me as he once did and he will call me his wife and be happy with me as before. I thank You that he will forget all about [any potential] lovers and that their names will never again be spoken. (Hosea 2:8-17) I thank You Father for blocking his path with thorns and walling him in so that he cannot find his way. If he chases after [another] lover he will not catch her, and if he looks for [another], he will not find her. [Precious Father] I thank You that he [is coming] back to me because he knows his life is better with me. (Hosea 2:6-7)
Thank You Lord that Jesus redeemed me from the curse of the law by being made a curse for me. (Galatians 3:13) Therefore, I refuse the curse of the law in Deuteronomy 28:30 and remind You of the Blood of Jesus and the Word of my testimony is that my husband [spouses name] will lay only with me. (Revelations 12:11) And I thank You that [spouses name] and I are reconciled to You through Jesus by His blood shed on the cross – and that we are reconciled back to each other despite anything we’ve done to each other in the past. We are [forgiven and] presented holy before You without blemish and free from accusation through His death. (Colossians 1:20-22)
I give You [all] praise and honor that no weapon formed against our Marriage has prospered, and that You are [now] proving every voice raised against our reconciliation wrong. This is my heritage as Your child and it is Your vindication for me. (Isaiah 54:17) I praise You Lord, that your grace is sufficient for me as I stand for the restoration of my Marriage – that Your power is made perfect in my weakness and that the power of Christ is in me. (2 Corinthians 12:9) I am strong and courageous, not afraid or discouraged because your power is greater than the power of satan and all who do his work. (2 Chronicles 32:7)
I am so thankful that You are watching to make certain that Your Word is fulfilled and that You are performing it in our Marriage. (Jeremiah 1:12) I praise and thank You Lord for keeping forever the promise You have made concerning me and my home – and for doing as you promised so that Your Name will be great forever.
O Sovereign LORD, YOU are God! Your words are trustworthy and You have promised these good things to me. You have said that You will build a home for me and that it pleases You to bless my Marriage so it will continue before You forever. You have spoken and with Your blessing, my home and Marriage will be established with blessings forever. (II Samuel 7:25-29)
I Bless Your Precious Name Lord. Thank You. In Jesus’ Name. . .
AMEN
