<BR>I need guidance and prayer. My husband is having doubts that are 7 year old daughter is his. We have been married for almost 3 years, and about a year ago he told me about his doubts. He has reason to doubt I was also involed with someone else sexual during the time I got pregnant, so there is a possablity that she is not his. I know I should have said something 7 years ago, but I felt she was his and wanted her to be his. So when he told me he had doubts I finally told the truth. He wants a dna test. He says he just has to know, and I am so affraid that if the dna test says she is not his I will lose him, and when ever I look at my daughter I get so upset with myself because all the pain I am causing, if she found out how would she feel toward me. My husband says he still loves me he just feels differnt toward me. He also said we would have probaly never got married if it were not for our child. I want to save our marriage and our family we were very happy at one time. <P>------------------<BR><BR>vanessa

Father, the evil one loves to cause dissension in our lives and how often we fall into the traps he sets for us. Father, I lift up Essence this morning, that you help her and her husband to see this as a spiritual battle desirng to tear away what they have built these past 7 years. <P>Father, hear her heart, help her to confess her guilt before you and to be freed, that this sin is washed away and she is whiter than snow before you. Go before them and bind them to you as a couple, let her husband be firm in his love for her no matter what the DNA testing results are. Let his mind dwell on the good parts of the last 7 years and see that their covenant is worth keeping.<P>Restore this marriage even greater than anything they could have done by themselves. Let their love grow in union with You. Give them a hunger for the things of You and surround them with a family of believers to support them during this trial. Above all Father, protect this child, let not her safety be ripped apart from her. The evil one stalks our children Father, as You have forewarned. Put an umbrella shield around her and let no enemy near her. IJN, Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for the opportunity to come before You on behalf of essence and her family. Thank You Lord for this young family and the desire in their hearts to please You. Lord, I pray that You will intervene in this marriage, causing both husband and wife to deeply commit to You, and to each other. Let them understand your word that says, "what God hath joined together, let no man put asunder". Lord, please hold essence tightly as she confesses her sins. Help her Lord to make decisions according to Your will. Let her husband's love for her grow ever stronger and deeper. Give essence Your wisdom Lord. I pray that the Holy Spirit envelops essence and her husband, guiding them through all decisions they make concerning this child. Thank You Lord for always being near and allowing us to call upon You whenever we are in need. Your deep love for us is awesome. Thank You Lord for restoring any damage done to this marriage by the enemy, and for protecting essence and her husband from attacks by the enemy. IJN AMEN

Father, I ask prayer for essence today, Lord. I pray that You will speak to her husband, this father's heart about his need to know about his daughter. What will it change but to cause conflicted feelings for an innocent child. No matter what the dna she is still his daughter and will he act differently. Does it really matter what dna is inside her? Will she suddenly be someone else. If satan has his way she might become that in this father's eyes. Will this really change their marriage? Lord, show him he has been happy and dwelling on the past will only creat problems where there were none. Lord touch this man that sometimes our curiosity is a temptation from the evil one. Show him that knowing will have a derisive effect not an enhancing effect on his child and this marriage. Thank you for the courage of essence to come forward with the truth. Lord, protect this marriage from the enemy. Provide a way for healing and restoration of this marriage in your name and by Your design. I Jesus name, Amen.
