Please stand with me as I pray for complete restoration of my marriage. I am standing on the word that says where two on earth agree on anything the Father will do what is asked. I am asking for divine intervention for my wife like he did with Hosea's wife I ask they he build a hedge of thorns around my wife and she will not be able to find happiness until she returns to the marriage. I also ask that through this hedge of thorns any lover she may have lose interest in her. I pray the blood of Jesus over my marriage, home, and family and that any stronghold satan has on my family be loosed now in Jesus name. I rebuke the demonic spirit of adultery that is attacking my marriage in Jesus name amen

714, welcome to Marriage Builders. I don't believe it is an accident that you are here and would encourage you to post your marriage problem on Surviving an Affair, if an affair, or on MB101 if not. Let the rest of us give you help.

Thanks for the welcome and I will keep this updated as soon as God moves on this situation

Yes, sir.
I have prayed to our Lord and Savior that this woman may turn from her sin, repent and return to her husband; as illustrated in the book of Hosea.

I really need prayers from all prayer warriors. My wife is supposed to come over Saturday to get some of her things and we are supposed to talk about things so please pray that God uses my tongue to speak to her heart and start the reconciliation process from that day forward. I really need all the prayers I can get on this matter so I am asking for each of you to please pray for me in this situation, thanks

704, I pray that you will avail yourself of the help offered on this forum and start taking action. I don't believe God led you here for no reason other than to get prayer support. This is like a dying cancer patient who goes to MD Anderson and instead of availing himself of their miraculous treatments, sits in the lobby and dies.

If your house is on fire, do you sit on the couch and pray or do you grab a water bucket?

You don't have to sit in the lobby and die. You don't have to sit there while the house burns down. Dr. Harley has a brilliant, God breathed program that might be able to save your marriage. Why not use it??

So you take it when I ask for prayers that I am doing nothing else? I have no idea how you could assume such a thing but if you don't want to pray for me then don't I asked and that is all I can do but please do not assume that I am just sitting here doing nothing besides askkng people to stand with me as the bible says to do in prayer. The bible says where two on earth are in agreement on anything The Lord will do what is being asked. So yes I asked people to stand with me in prayer and if that is not what I should be doing on this site then maybe I joined the wrong one

I don't see you availing yourself of the freely offered help on this forum. The forum has a superb plan - authored by Dr Harley - that has been very effective in saving marriages from affairs. I don't see you over on the forum trying to resolve your marriage problem.

Would you like some help with your marriage?

I have read and am trying to do whatever I can so I am not just sitting here doing nothing but I will be sure I try and find another site that will stand with me in prayer because it seems I have offended you by asking members on this site to do so with me and that was never my intention. I am just a firm believer in prayer and I thought the more prayers going up the better the chances are the blessings will start to come down because I am standing on Gods words when I ask for prayer. I am guessing because I haven't posted all over the site you had the assumption that I had not read the whole site but believe me I have read anything that I thought may help my marriage

704, no one is offended at all. But you can avail yourself of the fabulous program here. I don't think it is any accident you were sent to Marriage Builders. It is the best program I am aware of and I am convinced it was given to Dr. Harley in a prophecy from God. Many of us have saved our marriages using these methods. Do you want to do the same?

Of course I want to save my marriage covenant I made before God, that is the reason for the google search that lead me to this forum. As I said before I have read the plans A and B and have tried to apply them to my marriage but both are a little hard when there is no communication window at all and that is the reason I also need prayer to help with my situation as I am sure you are aware all situations are unique in some way. It is hard to put any plan into action without the divine intervention from God to help kick start the process

I am praying that you will use the wealth of resources at your disposal on the forum to which God has brought you. I believe God's divine intervention was to lead you to this forum to get help saving your marriage just like he did mine.

Now, you just have to pick up those tools that lie before you.

The forum that can help you with the task before you is the Surviving an Affair forum.

I just wanted to get on here and tell everyone that did pray for me thank you, my wife and I are now back together and actually have been back together for a month. This is why I asked for prayers because I have always believed in prayers working (this is called faith). I really do appreciate those that just prayed with me when I asked for it and want you all to know I have prayed for each one that has asked for it that I have read from here because if you didnt need prayers you wouldnt have asked and I feel it's the least I can do without telling you to go do this or do that before I pray for you. Thanks again for the prayers everyone and wanted you all to know your prayers have worked and she is home

Thanks for the update, 704. That is great news indeed! I pray that you will now use the resources here to SAVE your marriage. Getting back together is only the first step in a long process. If these steps are not taken, you will end up with a crippled state of the pre-affair marriage, which will be more vulnerable to an affair than it was before.

In the words of Dr. Bill Harley:
Originally Posted by Dr Bill Harley
"The plan I recommend for recovery after an affair is very specific. That's because I've found that even small deviations from that plan are usually disastrous. But when it's followed, it always works. The plan has two parts that must be implemented sequentially. The first part of the plan is for the unfaithful spouse to completely separate from the lover and eliminate the conditions that made the affair possible. The second part is for the couple to create a romantic relationship, using my Basic Concepts as a guide."

We will be here to help you when you are ready to work on recovery, friend.

I', glad to hear that she is back, Sir.

However, I caution you to take steps to ensure the affair is ended and future affairs are avoided.
This is best accomplished by following the recovery plan in Surviving an Affair by Dr. Willard Harley.

Not gonna start a new thread but will some of you pray with me for my marriage as well? I would greatly appreciate it.
I also believe in the power of prayer. God has always been there for me and our Lord and savior, Jesus Christ.

Dear God, and his beloved son Jesus Christ. Please forgive my adulterous ways and the sins I've committed against you, and your heavenly kingdom.

In the name of Jesus Christ, i command all that is evil and destructive to flee from me and my wife, flee from my marriage.
In Jesus's name. Amen.

Thank you

I will pray for you and your wife, but I am sorry to tell you, Jesus Christ's name does not work this way. It is not a magic word. Jesus Himself granted betrayed husbands and wives a right to divorce and they are not wrong to choose it.

Fortunately Jesus has permitted you to be brought to the best possible place to learn how to recover your marriage.
