Hi Promise, I have prayed for you and your husband and I will continue to ask God to let His will be done in your marriage. You need to pray and listen to what God says. He will guide you.

Promise,

I will pray for restoration and for favor over your marriage. I pray your husband allows the Lord to examine his heart. Things can change and your marriage can be a living testimony. Are you and your husband a part of a Church? If you are can you seek counseling? My wife and I went through something similar, and we decided to go to our leaders of our Church, and ask for counseling. It really helps when you can be accountable and under a covering of the Church. Please hold on to your peace. Allow God to mold and shape your inner souls for his glory. I will stand in the gap for your marriage & family.

Thank you to all that responded and are praying for me and my husband.
I go to a church in the neigbourhood but my husband doesnt. he grew up in the church-in fact he was a drummer for most of his life. He does not want to attend church anymore. i am trying to get him to see the pastor for counselling-so far he is not responding.
I will stand in the gap and pray. it seems the more i pray the more he is against me.
i thank you all for your prayers.
god bless you all.

Promise, do not give up on prayer. I can testify to the power of prayer in your marriage. For some time, my husband & I have been going through some trials. Awhile back, he admitted to me that he was lusting after other women, while assuring me that he would never act on it. During all of this, he was treating me very poorly. Our relationship was really suffering, especially our spiritual relationship. Every day, in tears, I would pray to the Lord to touch my husband's heart & to bring about the changes necessary in me to heal our relationship. Some days all I could cry out was "Lord, help me!" Remember, it's all in God's time. I would get so desperate, thinking that God had forgotten about me. Then during one really bad episode, I asked my husband a question that I had always been terrified to ask him. After I had asked him, I wondered where I had gotten the guts to ask (it was God's time). It startled him & stuck with him. Since then, our relationship has been healing & God did touch my husband's heart. He treats me so much better & told me that he no longer lusts after other women. I'm the only woman that he has desire for.
Just don't give up. Sometimes healing may be delayed to allow other things to happen that need to happen. God's hand is truely in it. Never doubt that. Just lean on Him for comfort during this time.
