I wasn't going to post this because I didn't want to sound like I was complaining but I really need your prayers. There is so much going on in my life and I've been taking everything to God in prayer. I'm starting to feel something about my situation that I really don't know how to explain. My husband left and is living in an adulterous relationship, my 10 yo son is suicidal because of this and he is really taking his anger out on his sibllings and myself. My husband is also wanting to take the kids to where he lives with this other woman. I don't think it's in the best interest of the kids that he does this with my son having those thoughts. My home is like a war zone with attitudes, anger, and disrespect for one another. My finances are hurting too.
There are so many request in all this, but the most important one is that God will help me to focus on Him and not my circumstances. I just want to let go and let Him work things out in His perfect will so He can be honored and glorified.

Our Father, blessed is Your Holy Name,
Please help ItsGodInMe to keep her focus on You despite the tumultuous events which surround her. Reassure her of Your Sovereignty and that Your Grace is truly sufficient. May Your Peace flood her being and her entire family and home. Lord, please take away her weariness and give her strength as she rests in You.
Confound the plans to bring the children to where this husband and the other woman are living. Speak wisdom and love to them that they will make decisions according to Your Will. Please bring order to these various situations for Your Glory. In the name of Jesus the Messiah I pray. Amen.

Father it is with faith that ItsGodInMe is trusting you to put all things right in her home. She realizes that is what comes first if anything is ever going to work out. Please hear her prayers and our as we join in asking that you walk into the center of this chaos and protect this family. Please do not let this husband compound things by removing the children from their home. Soften his heart so that he will have the best interest of the children in mind. Lift ItsGodInMe above this situation and give her the strength she needs to deal with all of this. Thank you Father for your goodness to those who believe.

ItsGodinMe - I so understand. I know from experience that where you are walking right now in your life is not an easy place to be. I wish I had answers for you or could magically make things the way they ought to be, but I can't. I do know that these things do pass, they are not easy to walk through at the time they are happening, but they will pass. One day you will be on the other side of all that is happening, just like Moses took the children of Isreal to the other side of the Red Sea. My children used to sing a song about that, it reminds me of my life, it says, only you can take me to the other side, only you can part that ocean wide, I'll hold onto your hand, following your command, walking through with you, to the other side. Remember he will take you to the other side of all your problems, have courage, wait on him. He'll see you safely through. God bless.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I lift up ItsGodinMe today, I understand all too well what she is going through and my heart just breaks for her and her children. They are suffering for the sins of another, but I pray for your protection and your guiding hand in their life and that all these conflicts would be quieted by your still small voice and you would bring them to the other side of these problems. In Jesus name, I pray, amen.

Dear sister, you have been in my prayers long before you posted this. I have followed your postings concerning your child and your marriage. I am amazed at how you faithfully pray for this other woman. Honestly, if I was walking in your shoes, I don't know if I could. You are a much better woman than I am. Please keep us posted.
Father, you know the concerns of this mother. Concerns for her family. Concerns for her husband, and even concerns for this woman. I lift up all of this to You. Please lead our sister in how she should go with this. It is Your will that she seeks. Thank you for holding them close to You. Your word says to bring all our cares to you. We leave it in Your hands. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen

CindySC, thank you so much for those encouraging words.
IwillseekHim, thank you for thinking of me in your prayers. I can honestly say that without God, I don't know where I would be in the mist of all this. He has kept grounded in situations I would normally have responded in a way that is not pleasing to God. I surprise myself sometimes! That how I know it's God and not me.

Lord God you see and know what she is going through. I ask that you would envelop her in your Holy Spirit. Comfort and uplift her Lord. Bring christian souls to pray with her and be there for her.
I ask that you would turn this all around for your honor and glory.
It is in Jesus name I pray. Amen.
I feel your pain. I've been similarly in your situation and it is very hard to deal with. Most of my life has been filled with trauma, heartache and pain. I'm currently in a situation where I feel very overwhelmed and weary most days.
May God bless you and keep you.

Thank you so much AH1...I will keep you in my prayers too.
My Lord my heart hurts when I see or read of others in pain sometimes wishing I can do something about it. Lord you are the Most High Almighty and You have all powers. For there is nothing you cannot do. Please my Lord, have mercy on those in pain, have mercy on those that are weary, have a special mercy on those that are brokenhearted. Lord please give us strength to get through our ordeals. Give us peace so that we are focused on You and not our issues. Give us wisdom to do what is right unto You. Father please hear our cries. Your word says You will never leave us nor will you forsake us. Please have mercy in Jesus name. Amen.

I too have been in your shoes, but fortunately I did not have any children with my ex-husband. I too had to learn to forgive and pray for that other woman. I have remarried and have two beautiful children from my current husband, thank God! Forgiveness is the key to peace and happiness in your life. God will take care of the rest. Just keep praising Him. You will find strength in the Lord.
Heavenly Father, I pray for this family. Let there be no division amongst them, but rather strong unity, peace, love and an abundance of Your joy and strength. I pray especially for ItsGodinme's 10 year old son. May Your guardian angels encamp all around him. Give him strength and allow him to become closer to his Mom so that they may comfort one another. Take away all his anger and hatred and replace it with your love. Father, this mother is not only consumed with the fact that her husband is gone, but she also is worried about her financial situation. I pray for Your provision in her life. I pray that all of their needs be met and through this trial, that she and her son will draw closer to You. In Jesus holy and mighty name amen

Father,
Thank you for ItsGodInMe, for her relationship with you and for her devotion to praying for others. Please work with each person involved here...each of the children, the husband, the other woman and especially ItsGodInMe. Father, please work this out in your perfect will so that you will be honored and glorified. Help our prayer partner to rest in you while you do the heavy lifting. We pray for ItsGodInMe and this whole situation in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

I strongly urge you to begin planning your strategy of defense IMMEDIATELY. Through prayer and fasting, seek out a Christian Family Counselor/Therapist who is accredited with at least a MA or PhD. Establish peace and a feeling of safety in your home while professionally documenting what this experience is doing to you and your kids. Be careful your husband doesn't already have a plan.
Father, I ask that you bear down a heavy weight of conviction upon this husband. Give him insight and clarity of thought in his mind. Show him what is missing and how he can have Your blessing in abundance; not through revenge or by hurting his wife and children, but by trusting in You. Give this mom a courage like never before, and send your protection to her side. Send your precious messengers to the children and especially to the little boy. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, please hearken Thy ear towards our sister. Your Word says we can come boldy to your throne of grace. Many of us stand in the gap as intercessor prayer warriors on her behalf. The enemy has an agenda. He is on a mission. He is set to tear this family apart. I partision You, Father to divinely intervene. Hear our prayers for this mother, for her children. We lift them up to You. Command Thy angels to encamp around this family. Protect them from any weapon formed against them. Bind the strongholds that the enemy is using against her husband. Bring him to a state of conviction in his heart. Show this man that his family needs to be united and as one. Deliver this man out of the hands of the adversary. Restore this family as a unit. I pray to You, believing that it is Your will for this family to reconcile. In the name of Jesus Christ, our deliverer and our redeemer, I pray.

Oh Father I pray this prayer with ItsGodInMe. Please turn this man's heart again to his family. Open his eyes to the distruction he is causing, the pain he causing his wife and children. Keep him from taking these children from the only security they have, a good Christian mother, their home. Do not let him accomplish this, Lord, please, I ask in Jesus name.

Dear God, please hear our prayers and move mightily in the hearts of this man and woman. Show them that You will not bless this and that he needs to be with his wife and children. Convict their hearts and open their eyes to the pain they are causing. Protect this wife and children. Keep the enemy out of this house. Place a band of angels around each one. I pray that You help them in such a divine way that they can see You intervening on their behalf. Protect this child's mind from any negative thought, from lies the enemy is attempting to use. In the name of Jesus, I pray. We are trusting in You, Lord. Amen

Lord I'm not sure what to think of what happened but I'm trusting that You are up to something. Please continue to protect my chldren and build a hedge of protection around them as the enemy desires to sift my family. Please continue to work out all our problems on the other side of the mountain. Please bless my home with love, respect, happiness, and life. Please shine light on my home and remove that dark cloud. Please loosen these strongholds that are on my family. Please give me strength and wisdom everyday to deal with my circumstances. Please let your will be done for my family. Please have mercy on my little ones and bring our circumstances to pass. Please Lord, in Jesus name. Amen.
