I have been emotionally abused by my husband since 2023. He accuses me of things I haven’t done. He has left me multiple times and comes back, saying he won’t do it again, but repeats the abuse. I have tried to be understanding because he has a trust issue with people. I have prayed and researched getting help for our marriage, and I have asked multiple times to go to Christian marriage counselling. He says he doesn’t need help.
I have asked God to open his eyes to the truth so he can know I am honest. I love him very much, but I don’t know what to do anymore. We don’t attend a church because of his trust issues, and I have no close family or friends. I am isolated and feel so alone. The pain is crushing me. Lord God, please hear my cry!

Dear Child of God, I stand with you in your prayers. Lord Jesus, I bring before You my sister, J and her marriage. Lord, I feel the pain behind her words. I pray that she will have strength to keep lifting up her marriage to You. Lord, I pray that You will minister into her husband’s life and reveal to him the root cause of his trust issues. I pray that he will have a revelation from You of the healing that You offer to him. I pray that all the outworking of his trust issues especially the emotional abuse will be brought into focus in his life and his eyes will be opened to the hurt that he is bringing into the marriage. We read in Your Word that we need to be rooted and grounded in You. Lord, will You uproot this trust issue and replace it with confidence. I pray that he will be completely healed of this and that he will be able to see the truth before him and not a distorted version of it. Strengthen his spirit within him that he can focus on You and Your love. I pray that J will experience Your Holy Spirit’s power working in her life to gently cleanse and restore her to Yourself. I pray that this marriage will begin to be rebuilt on the solid rock of Jesus and that there will be a hedge of protection around them. Lord, may J feel Your tangible presence around her and know that she is never alone as You stand beside her as the lover of her soul. You alone, Lord, know the crushing pain that J is in. Lord, I pray that the pain will be given to You and left at the foot of Your cross. May J experience release and freedom. As these two broken people reach out to each other in love I pray that Your Hand, Lord, will cover both of theirs. May they find the help and support that they so desperately need. Open the doors for them to a supportive church family who can minister love and healing into their lives. I pray in Jesus Mighty Name that He will be glorified. Amen.

Father, let love conquer, I pray. Keep her safe and bring peace to this relationship – both her husband and mine both get to know and receive Your forgiveness and love, amen.
