I haven't made any posts in a while. I thought that all of my problems with my husband and his EA were behind me. We seemed to be doing so well. I truly believed that God had answered all of my prayers and that my husband and I were on the road to recovery. However, Satan had other plans in mind. I became complacent and assured and stopped praying, and that's when Satan stepped up his attack, not only on my husband - tempting him again with thoughts of the OW - but also on me, whispering in my ear that my husband will never love me like her because I'm too old, too heavy, and not pretty anymore. I just don't think that I can go through another 4 months of my husband's wavering back and forth. Please pray that God will once again step into my life and lead me and comfort me through this turmoil. It hurts so badly to think that my husband is staying with me only because it is the right thing to do. I want him to be here because he loves me. I will always struggle with the thought that I am only second best. Please pray for my husband, that God would speak to him and draw him back into a right relationship. Thank you for your prayers.

dear sister, I understand what you are going through, I really do. Please know I will pray for you and your husband. Satan tries so hard to destroy families, and you and I seem to be prime targets. This morning I will be at the altar pleading our cases before the Lord. You go do that too. From the very depths of your heart and with every fiber of your being, plead with God! God's word will not return void. Pray scripture over your husband. Here are a few I am praying:<P>Romans 5:9 "Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him."<P>Psalms 9:9 "The Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, A refuge in times of trouble." Pray the Lord will be a refuge for your husband in times of trouble, and that no other way will bring him relief or rest. Pray the Lord deliver your husband from the oppression of man so he will keep His precepts.<P>Acts 10:38 "how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him." Pray Jesus' annointing and power overcomes Satan in your husband's life, removing oppression from Satan. Take your husband and marriage back from Satan in Jesus' name.<P>The Blood of the Lamb Jesus Christ is stronger than sin and God is a God that delivers and keeps His promises. Keep your husband and marriage in front of God all the time, pray and pray and pray. <P>Dear Heavenly Father, I pray in Jesus' name that Your love and forgiveness will pour out on sb1. Father, You started a work of restoration in this marriage, please come back into this marriage and complete this work bringing all honor and glory to You. Lord, You are the mightiest counselor, our Savior and Redeemer. Turn sb1's husband back onto the path of righteousness. Let Your Truth be revealed to him in a mighty, overpowering way. Overcome Satan in this marriage, and cast him back into the lake of fire away from this family now and forever. Teach sb1 to Pray always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints (Eph 6:18). Give her Your gift of faith and the Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit I pray that You will intercede on sb1's behalf to the Father causing a miracle to happen in their lives. Thank You Lord for your divine intervention. Thank You Lord for filling sb1 with Your Holy Spirit. I praise Your Holy name, and pray all these things to You in the precious name of Jesus, AMEN.

Father in heaven, I lift this woman and her prayers up to you in the name of Jesus. Fill her with YOUR love, YOUR comfort and YOUR strength. Father, I pray that YOU will hear her sorrow and give her peace and wisdom to know that she IS loved not only by her husband, but more importantly by YOU Lord Jesus. I pray that her husband will also commit his heart to YOU and also to his wife completely Father. Lead and Guide them both according to YOUR will. Bless this family dear Lord and help the to grow together in YOUR love and YOUR strength. Give them both the power to defeat the enemy. In the name of Jesus I pray,<BR>Amen and Amen.<BR>
