Hi to all,
I would like to ask for your help to please pray for my husband. Help me to pray for him.
We have a confrontation last Feb. 06. It started with the text message that I sent to him which I consider not offending but rather a reminder to him. I just texted him that "He knows our thoughts, He knows our desires, He knows our actions. We can run but we can not hide from God".
He asked me angrily what do I mean by that. I said well nothing its just a reminder. He said that next time you say something just make sure you know what you're saying and you understand what you're saying.
I told him that there is nothing wrong with my message. The reason why I am reminding him because I saw again several porno CDs/DVDs in his computer bag. But he furiosly said to me "that's personal, and that's none of your business".
I asked him is that your decision? You want to stay in your addiction? He said yes!
I really felt so bad and so sad. He'd rather stay in bondage than to be set free.
I prayed and said to the Lord, "please help my hsuband, save him and set him free from this bondage of sin that enslaves him for so long. Remove the fold on his eyes for him to see and let him see Your truth, Your light and Your love. Do not allow the enemy to ruin my husband's life, our marraige and our family. You have seen what the enemy did to him. Look at him, Lord. Look into his eyes and You will see how empty he is, how lonely he is and how lost he is. Have mercy Oh, Father. Please dear Lord save my husband.
You are our great God and King over all other gods who try to pose as the one and only. You died to give us freedom from sins and to give us eternal life. It is Your will that no one should perish but that all should come to repentance. It is You who said that. They are Your words. You are true to Your promises. You are not a man that You should lie. You will accomplish and fulfill Your promises to Your children.
I trust You, Lord. I completely entrust my husband in your holy hands. This I pray in Christ name, amen.
Thank you so much for listening and praying. please always included us in your prayers.
God bless you all.
Sis. Amor

13"Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14"If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it."
15"If you love Me, you will keep My commandments."

Sure i will pray for your Husband amor. As a man that struggles myself i have a pretty good idea what he is up against. Is is depressing indeed to be in love with an immoral lifestyle. I am not sure exactly where your man is spiritually speaking but i find one of the most powerfull weapons the Enemy has is his lies to us guys in that we can't break free and that reptenance + fidelity are unattractive.

Hey amor...there is another forum I would love to recommend to you that is specifically for spouses of sex/porn addicts.
http://www.partnersforpurity.com
Father, I ask that you will give my sister peace in your presence. I also ask you to give her wisdom in navigating the conflict that this issue has brought into her marriage. Fill her with your grace, understanding and most of all your presence. Show your kindness that brings repentance to her husband and open his eyes to how the enemy is working in his life. In Jesus' Name...

hi armor,
you had every right to ask , your husband , if we stop relating to one another in a marriage then how do we show love and caring,
i left papers out of how other wives were hurt my what thier husbands were doing, i found them in
this site, and they were women of doctors and high engineering,
it effected my husband he didn't realize this was hurting and seen a different light, the thing is when your husband gets to know you they only listen so far to what we say, but over all we are saying the same thing other women say, they just don't listen, they think it only us
i praise god now for how he has shown it hurts me, my husband now fights it, he still jokes once in a while but i let him know softly its not funny and it hurts and now he apologise immediately, he has come a long ways and i am so proud of him, its hard for them they are attacked everyday with sex,
my prayer for you , god please show armor's husband how he is hurting his wife, let a stranger appeal to him on the matter,
let armor love her husband and forgive him, let her know how hard it is for him, for he still does not see it as a sin, because its so accepted in today's world,
i know threw you god all things are possible , i love you lord with all my heart and know you are already working on this for armor is a child of the Royall blood of our family ,
armor, keep the faith know god loves you and i do too, there has been a big change in my husband and a lot of it was because i put my foot down, i was standing to loose everything to stop what was going on , and god turned it around, my husband came to terms with his addiction,
we are now thinking of moving to Florida and have all debt paid , so satan is a liar , so are his companions , get thee behind me satan and leave armor and her husband alone

Thank you love&hate.
I really appreciate your prayer so much. It's just that he is into his addiction for so long already. And I am clinging to the Lord to give me strength to face this battle. JESUS is my only hope.
Thank you.

thats great armor
everyday is a battle with satan and his spirits but the time has come for us to speak out openly about jesus and his word ,
the bible is a software for our lives and we need to set the example for Christ time is running out and you have to show people what is right no matter who it hurts, we come into this life naked and go out naked, so how you treat people inbetween is going with you
i know this from the exp of it
god is only concerned with how you showed your love and knowledge.
of him and his word
u stay in gods word and be strong in it
god will take care of you sis, he is bigger than anything we come up aganist,
he will also show your husband i have already been confirmed god is dealing with your husband , so keep up the prayers and fast sis , i know when i fast i see faster answered prayers

Hi NW,
Thank you for your prayers. I really appreciate your help and support by praying for us.
It is only in the Lord that I find comfort in this time of trial. There is nothing to hide with Him. I can tell everything to Him as I pour out the hurt and pain I am going through. He is my source of strength, peace and joy.
Though sometimes I asked, when this cycle of pain will stop. But, I always turn to His Word, the absolute truth for His comfort and assurance.
Yes, I agree and it's true; He will never leave us. Nothing is impossible with God. What a promise from our living and powerful God.
Right now, we are not doing well. We don't talk for almost 2 months. Even if I try to talk to him, he will shout back or he will not say anything. He is so arrogant. He is lusting so much. He is in his addiction and doesn't want to stop. His heart is very stubborn and rebelious. I don't understand how can he be so ungrateful before the living God. That is why, I always pray for God to open his eyes of understanding that he will see, know and feel how much God loved him so much.
I plead to God for my husband's salvation. It is the Holy Spirit that gives me the desire to prevail and continue praying for him. He impressed this in my heart the hunger for the salvation of my husband. To see Him to work in this situation is always an evidence that the Holy spirit is conveying to me the heartbeat of God.
Yes, it is only in Him that I completely entrust my husband's salvation.
It's been so nice to share this with you all.
You will also be in my prayer.
Always remember that "you are beautfiul". God is your Creator and you are the work of His hands. (Psalms 119:73)
In Christ love,
Amor

Amor, I am praying that God will pursue your husband by intersecting his path with those of strong Christian men, and anything else needed to get his attention.

Hi Truthseeker,
He doesn't go with us anymore. He doesn't go to church. What will I do with him? All he has to do was to wait for us to leave the house and then he will do his p&m session. I asked my brother to help me talk to him. But he said that we should settle this matter between me and my husband. I don't know where to go. Who should I trust in our church? I just pray, pray and pray.
It's an unending cycle. Everytime I will try to talk to him, it's either he will shout back or will not say anything. As if I am talking to a statute. I am trying to keep the sanity of my family, for my children.
He doesn't have the desire to restore our relationship. And it hurts so much.
I am begging, pleading for God to answer my prayers.
Sorry to disturb you. I just need to tell someone how I feel.
Anyways, this is a great week to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord.
Jesus is alive!
God bless.

Amor, please never be sorry for sharing your pain here--that's what we're here for. I wish I had some amazing answer for you, but only the Holy Spirit is able to give you discernment about whether there is a point at which you and the children would be better protected by separation.
Hugs,
TruthSeeker

Hi truthseeker,
Thank you for your prayers. Please continue to pray for my husband's salvation and for God's strength and guidance in my life.
I was praying the other day as I asked God to impress to my heart His will. Though I am considering separation as a way to end this suffering. But, I do not want to make a decision without His will. That is why, I asked God as I was praying to give me the eyes to see His will and wisdom to discern it. That He will give me His message as I read His word.
Yesterday, the title of my devotion is "a life-changing prayer" and today "praying in God's will" (Col. 1:1_14). Its just so amazing that our God is really a great God. Giving us our needs in perfect time. I just can not really comprehend the vastness of His wisdom. He is indeed so great! Can't express it in words, for words are not enough to descirbe fully His greatness and power. All I can say is "truly we are serving the true and living God". Awesome! Awesome He is!
That is why I am praying for God to rescue my husband from the bondage of his addiction, from the domain of darkness, and transfer him to the kingdom of God's beloved Son, in whom we have redemption and forgiveness of sins.
I just thank God that I discovered this forum, where I can share what's in my heart. I thank you, john and others for the encouragement and for your prayers.
All our trials will soon end, and that every believer will be found among those who come out of great tribulation.
"For there will be no crown without the cross, no testimony without the test."
We are victors and champions in Christ Jesus!
God bless,
Amor

Hi Everyone,
Please help me to pray for my husband. Tonight, our pastor and 2 of our brothers will visit my husband. This is to invite him for a dinner fellowship this coming Saturday.
Please pray that God through His Holy Spirit will lead and give wisdon to our pastor and the brethren as to how to invite my husband. In such a way that my husband will not feel that he is being cornered. But rather, God will give him the eyes to see this warm invitation as an extension of His love for him.
I just pray and commit it to the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Amor
