Satin has got ahold on my husband. On Valentines Day h makes moves to stop the divorce and then today he tells me he's taking her to Nashville, Tn. This is to a business meeting that he and I have went to for years together. He knows our children and employees with be their. I pray for God to stop my husbands plans of taking her on this trip. I'm not being jealous its if you stop a divorce to work on the marriage why a trip with the ow. He even bougth her a car. He told our friend he was doing this so he wouldn't leave on bad terms. I pray for Gods strenght and wisdom on this one also. God works the miracles all the Glory to God. IJN.

Lord, the enemy is using the deception of this world to bring blindness to Brown's husband. In Jesus Name we ask that You would reveal Truth to him. Show him how this decision looks to You, his family and his wife. We ask that Your light would penetrate this satanic blindness so that there would be an end to pleasing those of this world. We know you hear us Lord because we are praying according to Your will. Give Brown great wisdom as she deals with yet another dart. Help her to give this totally to You and stand back and watch Your power. Father, we ask that You would trouble these plans and make an end to this ungodly relationship. IJN<P>Brown, use the spiritual armor! Especially the shield of faith which will quench these firey darts of the devil. We are praying for you.<P>------------------<BR>"Perfect love casts out fear" I John 4:18

I read neil Andeson daily, I to like you find it just happens most of the time to be on something I need. Tonight my husband came over he got angry with me and left, then he called and told me he had a lot of problems to work out before he could come back to me. I dont know a lot about his problems he doesnt tell me, the two I really know of are his girlfriend and he's back to drinking. I pray that my husband turns to God and God will direct him and save him. IJN Amen

Lord, you say that man makes his plans, but the outcome is up to you. So, Lord, I am asking that you direct the outcome of this marriage. I know that you hate divorce, infidelity, and blindness to your word.<P>Let your light shine so bright, oh Lord. Keep Brown's eyes focused on you. Bring her every support to help her keep her eyes on her. Lord, I also pray that you work double time on this marriage. Restore it, let it be to your Glory.<P>In the Name of Jesus.<BR>AMEN

Here is what I got in the mail today:<P>VERSE:<BR> "I hate divorce," says the LORD God of Israel... "So guard<BR>yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith."<BR> -- Malachi 2:16, New International Version<BR> <http://bible.gospelcom.net/bible?Malachi+2:16><P>THOUGHT:<BR> In a throw-away world, God wants us to know that he hates it<BR>when we throw away people. Let's call each other to God's<BR>standard, to God's holiness. Let's not let our spirits be<BR>corrupted by selfishness and resentment. Let's not break faith<BR>with God by treating those closest to us with contempt. And in a<BR>world where people get broken by divorce, let's go find them,<BR>include them, and bring them home to God's family for healing.<P>PRAYER:<BR> Almighty God, please make our words strong, our commitments<BR>lasting, and our lives faithful to the promises we make to you and<BR>to each other. Thank you for the great example of so many of your<BR>people who have had incredibly strong marriages. Bless me and my<BR>house with a legacy of faithfulness that lasts for generations to<BR>come. In addition, dear Father, please use me to bring home to you<BR>those who have been broken and battered in marriages that failed.<BR>In Jesus' name. Amen.<BR>

TNT,<P>Thats powerful! It also delivers a great deal of reponsibility for us to use what God has given us in our marriages(the process of recovery)to help others who are going through the same thing. Come to think of it that is exactly what MB is all about.<P>I have stayed away from the Infidelity forum pretty much because it is so negative but maybe I have to reconsider that. The Lord has blessed my relationship with my H and we are in recovery, I believe largely due to the people on the MB forum.<P>Think I need to pray about this one.<P>Thanks again, Taj<P>------------------<BR>"Perfect love casts out fear" I John 4:18

Taj, if staying away from the infidelity forum is helping you to keep focused on the Lord, then don't go there.<P>You, my friend, are a great inspiration and friend for many. Stay strong.<P>TNT

Oh, Brown, I am so very sorry. I wish with all my heart there was something I could say to make you feel better. The only thing I can think of right now is that God honors persevering faith..... We've got to persevere. I've been feeling really down trodden this week as well. We need to pray for each other today. <P>Dear Father in Heaven, Please be with Brown today, send the Holy Spirit to her to lift her up, comfort her, give her your peace that passes all understanding. Please dear Lord, take away Brown's pain, heal her broken heart. Reward her faithfulness to you, show her your Love dear God. She needs you so very much right now, I pray that you will wrap your arms around her and protect her heart from any more pain. Please use this situation that her husband is in with the OW to permanently break the tie that is binding him to this OW. Thank you Lord, for loving us, and caring for us. We praise your Holy Name. IJN, AMEN.

Good evening to all. My husband is back from his business trip. He stopped by to see me this afternoon had a nice visit of about an hour. He looked so sad, I asked him what was his on his mind, he said nothing he was ok. He sure didnt look it to me. I pray for God to heal him. Many blessings to you all. God Bless.

Must be a result of those prayers we've been praying to trouble his mind about his relationship with OW. Praise God, for He is almighty! Thank you Lord for working in Brown's husband's life. Thank you Lord for speaking to his heart. We praise Your holy name!!! IJN AMEN
