Every Wed. we pray and fast for one another for resolution to our marriages and our lives. Every Wed. we can check in and let our fellow prayer warriors know we have prayed for the group. Prayer does mighty things and group prayer is even better. "For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst." Matt 18:20.

I will be entering the prayer post on Sundays so everyone has an opportunity to check in and to add their own personal prayer request if they want to/need to. Then on Wed. we can check in, hit the "Post Reply" button, and enter "Amen".

I think it will be great to see how God works in our lives and heals our marriages and us. If you want to pray with us I will be more than happy to add your name to the list below.

The Power of a Praying Wife

Chapter Twenty-Three - His Walk

A man'�s walk is the way he journeys through life � his direction, his focus, the steps he takes. Every day he chooses a path. One path will take him forward. All others will take him back. The way he walks affects every aspect of his being � how he relates to other people, how he treats his family, how people view him, even how he looks. I�ve seen men who were unattractive by any standard change radically as they learned to walk with the Spirit of God. As His image became imprinted upon theirs, they developed a richness of soul, a glorious purity, and an inner confidence of knowing what direction they were going. This gave them a strength and a sense of purpose that is not only attractive and appealing, it�s magnetic.

The Bible reveals much about the kind of walk we should have. We are to walk with moral correctness because �no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly� (Psalm 84:11). We are to walk without fault because �whoever walks blamelessly will be saved� (Proverbs 28:18). We are to walk with godly advisors because �blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly� (Psalm 1:1). We are to walk in obedience because �blessed is every one who fears the Lord, who walks in His ways� (Psalm 128:1). We are to walk with people of wisdom because �he who walks with wise men will be wise� (Proverbs 13:20). We are to walk with integrity because �he who walks with integrity walks securely� (Proverbs 10:9). Most of all, we are to walk a path of holiness. �A highway shall be there, and a road, and it shall be called the Highway of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it, but it shall be for others. Whoever walks the road, although a fool, shall not go astray� (Isaiah 35:8). The best part about walking on the Highway of Holiness is that even if we end up doing something dumb, we still won�t get thrown off the path.
leads to life, and there are few who find it� (Matthew 7:14). Pray for you husband to find it. Pray that he is guided by God�s Holy Spirit. Pray that he stays on the path of having faith in God�s Word, a heart for obedience, and deep repentance for any actions he takes that are not God�s will for his life. Faith and obedience will get him on the Highway of Holiness; walking in the Spirit, and not in the flesh, will keep him there.

God desires that your husband�s every step be led by Him (Galatians 5:25), so He can walk with him and grow him into His image. A man who walks with God is very desirable indeed.

PRAYER

�O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; it is not in man who walks to direct his own steps� (Jeremiah 10:23). Therefore, Lord, I pray that You would direct my husband�s steps. Lead him in Your light, teach him Your ways, so he will walk in Your truth. I pray the he would have a deeper walk with You and an ever progressing hunger for Your Word. May Your presence be like a delicacy he never ceases to crave. Lead him on Your path and make him quick to confess when he strays from it. Reveal to him any hidden sin that would hinder him from walking rightly before You. May he experience deep repentance when he doesn�t live in obedience to Your laws. Create in him a clean heart and renew a steadfast spirit within him. Don�t cast him away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from him (Psalm 51:10, 11).

Lord, Your Word says that those who are in the flesh cannot please You (Romans 8:8). So I pray that You will enable (husband�s name) to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh and thereby keep himself �from the paths of the destroyer: (Psalm 17:4). As he walks in the Spirit, may he bear the fruit of the Spirit, which is love, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22, 23). Keep him on the Highway of Holiness so that the way he walks will be integrated into every part of his life. AMEN!

PRAYER REQUEST:

Please pray for me and my husband. I found out that he is planning on moving out of state. Not sure if it will actually happen or if it does, how soon. I sensed this was coming but am still a bit shocked after having it confirmed. I know the miles between us won't make a difference and it will actually be good to put those miles between him and the OW. I'm just still a bit numb and don't know what to think. Our 2 yr d-day anniv is approaching and I haven't even seen him in about 3 or 4 months now. I just need prayers for strenght to continue my stand and know for sure that this is where God wants me. Thank you!

Father, let this be the end of him and the ow, and let it be the beginning of a fresh start for hopeful and her husband.

Father, Hopeful has been faithful in standing firm. Please make it clear to her whether you would have her continue to wait for her husband, or if she is released . Please confirm it with the words of Jesus so she knows for sure, I ask in his name,

Shul

I just wanted you folks to know I've lifted you all up in prayer today.

I just would like to see some peace and a break through.

I'm grateful that this doesn't seem to bother our YD, as she is very well behaved, both at home and in school, and has glowing reports in Kindergarten. She has tested as tops in her class, over 100 points (in a 700 point scale) higher than any of her classmates during a recent reading assessment.

So I praise God for that today!

TB

Thank you for your prayers Shul. I really appreciate them.

I've always had a bit of trouble figuring out if God is really answering my prayers or if it's just me hearing what I want to hear. I'm sure many of you will understand. Everytime I start praying for any type of sign that I'm on the righ path, I start having dreams with my husband. They are not special occasions, but usually just normal daily activities with him. Going shopping, visiting family...just normal stuff. BUT, it always feels so real when I wake up. I feel as if I haven't lived 2 yrs without him and he's been by my side all along. It's so weird, but yet so nice. Am I just doing this all by myself? or could it be that God is answering my prayers that I should keep standing so I could once again live this way with my husband? I hate being in this state of confusion.

Thank you all for always praying for each other every Wednesday. I have you all in my prayers today!

May God bless you!

WHAT A WONDERFUL FORUM! I AM SO EXCITED TO BE HERE.
This is the first time I've been this excited about anythin in a VERY long time.
I believe in the power of prayer. I commit to praying for you guys here. I've found it helpful to pray for others in similar situations.

Please pray for me too. My situation is the Husband left 3 weeks after giving birth & moved in with girlfriend thread.

PLEASE pray for his repentance and that he and Cheryl (his g/f) break up and that he has a new love in his heart for the Lord and wishes to come back and actually work on our marriage.

I wish these things more than anything sometimes. I want our family back together in Christ. I want him to leave this life of sex, pride, and rock-n-roll. He is VERY talented. I wish he would use it for the Lord. Seriously.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR PRAYERS. I WILL BE PRAYING FOR YOU TOO! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />
