Pray for My Husband to Stop Cheating

by Brenda
(Melrose, ma usa)

Praying for my husband to stop cheating on me with his ex-girlfriend. Me & my husband have been married for 3 yrs. We have lived together for 16yrs and been together almost 17 yrs. I am asking God to remove the ex-girlfriend from my husbands heart and remove her from our marriage. I believe there is an unGodly hold on my husband. He even admits that he doesn't trust her and that I am a better woman than she is and says she is greedy, selfish and a liar. But he still sneaks to call her on the phone etc. She also is very persistent. This is her nature to stay connected to ex-boyfriends etc. He is not the first. My husband is a christian and is just doing the opposite of what a christian does. I believe he is drinking again. He says he has changed. He has been back and forth for the past year now. He even joined her church. She believes God sent him to her. She wants him to divorce me and marry her. She thinks this is God's plan. He says he doesn't want to keep hurting me. He says he still loves and is in love with me. He said he doesn't think he could stop seeing her. He was faithful to me for over 16 years. I think he is in a midlife crisis and the devil is messing with him. I do not want to divorce him but I am getting to the point where I had enough. I keep praying to God. My husband isn't the Godly man I know. He needs to repent to God and turn away. This woman is being used by Satan. I pray she repents and turns to God and walks away from my husband. I pray for God to physically remove her from his life. I also need prayer for my son. I am asking God to heal his mind, heart and emotions. I believe my family will be restored. I am not giving up. The devil loves to smokescreen situations. I believe my husband wants to do the right thing but sin has got a hold on him. Please pray for me and my family.

Prayer
by: Farlana

My brother told me that my husband is cheating on me. The same brother that introduced to the life that he is living now. We have been together for 17 years and have four beautiful children. He keeps denying that he is cheating, but he says things to see how I am going to react by bringing up things that happened in his family. He is very mean to me. I love him soooo much and I know that he loves me. It seems like the more I go to him about it the more he act like oh you can't tell me where to go. I feel like if I just keep my mouth closed and let Jesus bring fourth what he is producing it will be ok. I just can't seem to keep my mouth closed. He tells me over and over I am not leaving you or he will find proof and when you do it will really broke my heart to find out that it is not true. I just want to walk away, but I love him. He can be a sweet man for the the most part. In my heart I do believe something did happened even tho I did not see anything. I hear what people say. I know that God is able and he is getting ready to show himself strong.

@My Daughter is Cheating
by: Wanda

We are praying for your daughter and husband. As a mother, I can feel your hurt and disappointment. As a Christian mother I've asked myself what would I do and how would I feel if this were my child? And this is what I came up with: In all honesty, I think for a split second I would question whether or not I failed my child as a parent. So, if you've even thought that, the first thing I want to tell you is not to accept any lies from Satan! Whatever your daughter is doing is not because of anything you failed to do. It's her choice alone and God is going to use her mistake to refine her. Now, regarding what I would do; the first thing I would do is point my child to Jesus. Even though the child is a Christian, she obviously does not understand the covenant of marriage. This should be explained to her...the seriousness of the vow she took and how God despises divorce. Don't judge her but treat her with the love of God. I would also share scriptures with her or share this website with her. After that, I would pray daily for her and her husband. Because in the end, it is only God who has the power to turn our hearts. Be encouraged and continue to pray. GOD IS ABLE!

Praying for All of You!!!
by: Wanda

Michael and I are praying for all of you. We don't know you guys personally, but one thing I can tell you about infidelity because I have lived it is this: As much as you want your marriage to work, reconciliation is simply not possible with someone who is unwilling to repent. This is a biblical principle.

I suggest you read Life Lessons From A Former Adulteress. It will give you insight into this principle and a lot of other eye opening things you need to consider when you don't know what to do.

After I type this, I am going to create a special coupon for all of you to get a special discount on the eBook. If you use this coupon code for the remainder of January 2012, you'll get 30% off the eBook. I pray it helps you to move forward and make Godly decisions concerning your marriage.

The Coupon Code= Survive

My Daughter is Cheating
by: Anonymous

My daughter and her husband married November 20, 2010. They found out that they had conceived a honeymoon baby, both were extremely happy. Her husband was in the military. When my grandson was only eight weeks old, my daughter informs her husband that she doesn't love him anymore and wants out of the marriage. He was set to leave to go overseas with the military, which due to his devastation, he was sent back home. My daughter was raised a Christian, she will not admit to an affair and says that her husband is a good man. She is constantly talking about her "friend" which is a male. I feel in my heart that she is involved with this man. I have cried everyday and pray constantly that God will renew their love and her husband will be able to forgive her so that they can be a family again. I ask for prayer and guidance as a mother.

Thank you,
Desperate Momma

A Husband who has fallen
by: Anonymous

Ladies on behalf of all the men, I apologize for the men who has put you thru the pain. I found this website because I fell to sin. My wife and I have been married for almost three years. It happen once because of a stupid mistake, and then it was very close to happening again. I am so disappointed in myself for letting God down and my wife. My prayer is that God will empower the Men in the body of Christ with strength to look Sin/List in the face and say I rebuke you. Our sons and daughters should not suffer. Sisters of God this website has blessed and change my life because I dont EVER want my wife to feel this pain again. We have complete victory in Christ. This website has caused me to prayer to so many things. Thank you all....

Please pray for us.
by: Anonymous

My husband is currently overseas visiting his girlfriend, for the second time this year. I pray constantly for the two of them, that the Lord will open their hearts and eyes to His will and that they will come to recognize this sin for what it is. In some strange way they believe God brought them together (over the internet)!
My husband and I had a great marriage until this began, he has told me many times that there was nothing I did wrong or could have done differently, that we still have a good relationship, he loves me, he's just not in love with me.

In the beginning, exactly 12 months ago I began to sense a change in him but he said I was being silly and everything was fine, he still loved me. But l could see that he was different. I tried to handle it on my own with disastrous results. Then I handed it over to the Lord and the very first thing He said to me was that if I stay with my husband and not abandon my marriage, He would make a way to restore our relationship. Then at the end of May I found out - my beautiful, amazing husband was having an affair and was going overseas to visit her for 10 weeks. He came back, and announced he was going again but would be back for Christmas, because he knew I would be upset if he didn't!!

Everyone who knows us, him, our marriage is completely shocked and cannot believe what he is doing. I pray constantly for them both. He had a beautiful faith but he is so changed. Please pray for us. For him and her. Thank you.

Tried and Through
by: Anonymous

There comes a time when enough is enough.
We hold on to our marriage and get miss treated over and over and that is not from GOD.
I like most women on this blog have been cheated on over and over as a matter of fact over 35 times within an 11 year marriage.

I have cried, prayed, confronted, and believed this man would change I am tired and through. I am happy though because I can’t wait until the Lord blesses me with a husband who honors and respects me who is faithful and loyal because we do reap what we sow.

I am not perfect and I have made changes in myself I have forgiven and I already ready to move on.

My cheating husband
by: Anonymous

Well ladies, looks like I have had enough, my husband continues to cheat on me with different women, he spends very little time at home now, I just can not take it anymore, God only knows how much I have tried to save this marriage, all this man is doing is breaking me down and I can not let him do that. I have three children that need and depend on me. I will continue to pray for all the women who have dealt with this.

My husband has cheated on me severally with ladies he knew in the past. Now he has gone ahead to start a fresh relationship with a lady he works with in the same office who joins him in his car to work. They both keep calling and sending them selves text messages. Even up to the extent of calling at odd hours. I am not quitting the battle and I haven't stopped praying over the matter its hard on me but I know God has given me victory through Jesus Christ. its hard oh it sooooo really hard on me because I LOVE HIM DEEPLY. I haven't stopped crying since I found out. Please pray for me my strength is failing.

Betrayed
by: Anonymous

We seem to all be in the same predicament. I have been in a 8 year relationship with my fiancee and he has cheated numerous times with numerous people. I have prayed over and over again that he will change and when the change is coming on the devil seems to get a hold of him again. There is one particular woman that does not go away and I found out that he has been cheating with her. I love this man and although it may seem foolish I see where the devil takes over. I am praying and fasting and I am confident that with God's help we can get through this hurdle. I just need prayer because my heart ache and resentment will eventually destroy the both of us.

Hurting
by: Anonymous

My husband and I were remarried for over 15 years. Our first time around was 4 years until he cheated, had a child and he divorced me. After 3 years apart and divorced we remarried. This past July he reconnected with his brothers ex wife and her children. I opened my home to her and she and my husband took advantage. Shortly after, he claimed he wasn't happy and wanted out. She lives away but he has visited her shortly before filing for divorce. I believe he has visited her since then. He tells everyone he feels bad for how he did it but he just wanted out. We had problems like everyone else and not once did I think he would ever do this to me AGAIN. He has literally walked out of our life like it never mattered and seems to have no remorse. The girlfriend even pretended to be my friend and said she would pray for my marriage while carrying on with him. She has always been manipulative and a liar and claims to be a Christian. He has left me with everything and am losing it all. I do thank GOD for my family and my wonderful friends. He has even walked away from our 21 year old daughter that he use to be so close with but it just doesn't seem to matter. He has become ugly and all he cares about is that he doesn't want to see me get any support. I believe his ex sister in law has a hold on him and all she cares about is making sure she cashes in somehow. I am attending a divorce group and praying a lot but sometimes the pain gets so bad. It seems like he hates me and just wants to hurt me over and over again. I do believe that God will intervene and that eventually the hurt will lessen. I pray for all that are going through this because it truly hurts..GOD BLESS

To those who have cheating spouses
by: Anonymous

Hi All,

Let me be of some encouragement. Do not give up the fight. That is what the enemy wants you to do. He wears you down. Affairs are not something that GOD calls to happen...it is sin and the Bible tells us that GOD do not tempt us. Read James 1:13 "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts he any man." So this is strictly an attack by the enemy. Stand your ground. There is a prayer called the Hedge of Thorn prayer that you can pray every night...but in doing that prayer you yourself have to be completely living in the spirit as well. You can do a internet search and it is easily obtained there. I am praying for all of you and be of good cheer...you have already won your battle. I am a living testimony, if you do not give up nor in, you too can win yours. Be blessed in the LORD.

I NEED PRAYERS FOR MY FAMILY
by: Anonymous

I am also feeling for all of you women.i married in April this year and my husband is cheating with different women.We went to visit our pastor and the Holy Spirit revealed to him that my husband is to be very very careful with women because the devil wants to bring him down.there is a particular lady who is very persistence and wouldn't let my husband go.I know its only God who can put a stop to whatever is going on between her and my husband.sometimes,she even calls my husband after 1am and all my husband says is that i will call you back in the morning.all these do not bother me because i trust and believe in God that,He will put the devil to shame in His on time.In John 13 :13-14,and I will do whatever you ask in my name,so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.You may ask for anything in my name,and I will do it. also,Psalms 91:15 says;he will call upon me,and I will answer him;I will be with him in times of trouble,I will deliver him and honor him.

Let us not stop praying and believe that in God's own time,he will deliver our husbands from the hands of these mistresses that is the other women.

Father, you are our only hope. We pray that you console us and touch our hearts in times like this. We believe that you have already saved our husbands for us in the spirit but it is yet to manifest physically. We bless you and praise you in Jesus' Name we pray and with thanksgiving, Amen!

All we do is argue over this and it has become just about everyday, I pray to God that he would end this and also that she will also stop seeing my husband, I pray that the lord will help them both, PLEASE ladies pray for my family.

Am very confessed right now and the only thing i do now is pray for the salvation of his soul and God's mercy on me if i have done any wrong. Please can someone advise me on what to do?

FAITH HOPE LOVE
by: Anonymous

Stay strong ladies and believe that sometimes we go thru trials because the lord is trying to make us grow in his word..I know exactly how all of you feel I been thru this but I believe in the lord and have faith. God is good. He will never give you anything that your heart cannot handle. Sometimes we blamed ourselves for there failings but its not us its them that need help. Now and days there's a lot of broken homes, because women these days love to mess around with married men its there attraction or something but lets pray for this women that the lord may open there eyes and let them see the real truth because its women who are not believers who are lost in this world.

Lord, I come to you and ask that you reveal each and everyone who is hurting over a broken marriage that you showed them your faith and that you heal them in Jesus name, lord I ask for this men who constantly are attack by temptation I ask that your Holy Spirit may talk to their souls and they come into full repentance. Lord and I thank you for your grace and mercy. In Jesus name amen.

Prayer for my family
by: Anonymous

Hi Anonymous,
I too am going through similar issues. My husband and I have been married 22 years and he has cheated on me several times and has produced two children outside our marriage. You see, I could not have children, so we tried In Vitro and I lost the baby. We both took it hard and grew apart. He found solace in the arms of another woman. The second child came three years later. He was deployed to Iraq for 18 months and the girl got pregnant there. He and the first child's mother don't get along much because the child has always done better living with us. However, the second child's mother still wants him and in some ways, I think he likes it. I've told him that I do not like him talking to her about anything other than their daughter. However, she calls him for all sorts of advice that has nothing to do with their daughter, who is also living with us. Recently, I learned of a prayer call the Hedge of Thorns Prayer. GOD willing, this will work for you. It is: "Heavenly Father, I ask you to rebuke and bind Satan in the name and through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. I ask you to build a ?hedge of thorns? around my husband, so that anyone with wrong influences or intentions will lose interest in him and leave and that the scabs will fall from his eyes so he can see the beauty that you have placed in our marriage. I base this prayer on YOUR command in YOUR word, which states, ?What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.? Thank YOU for hearing and answering my prayer. I ask this and all blessing in the mighty glorious name of JESUS. Amen!

The Devil has already lost this battle!!!
by: Glo

As I sit here reading all these comments, they encourage me so much. You see I am also going through adultery in my marriage. It started last year in July 2010, finally in Dec. 2010, I made him confess to me the truth-he was and had been having an affair for six months. I forgave him and then in Jan 2011 he left to move in with her. He was gone for 3 months and returned to me by God's grace. During this time of my loneliness I went to church, dove into the word of God, prayed endlessly, rebuked Satan, declared victory. God gave me my vindication-she cheated on my husband, so he came back-I thought he was going to stop talking/seeing her. But after he came back on our anniversary in April up until this July 8; turns out he confessed he never stopped talking/seeing her. He says he can't that she's like his drug, the day he left we even talked to our pastor, he told me to just have a quiet spirit, and trust God. I know that their relationship will fail because it's not of God. How can someone expect something good out of something that is wrong? "She went on "myspace" and boastfully posted that "no one is gonna come between them". God is in control of my marriage not her. I refuse to let Satan destroy our marriage, I will not quit; that's too easy. Isaiah54:17 Your enemies will always be defeated because I am on your side. Just keeping trusting God-remember in Malachi 2:16 "For I hate divorce!" says the Lord, the God of Israel. Also pray that the Lord break all chains that have our husbands in bondage. Nothing is impossible with God.

Jesus can and will restore your marriage!
by: Anonymous

I feel for you; my heart goes out to you. I am going through the same thing! We have been married for 28 years and he has lived with her for almost a year now. I have been covering him in prayer daily. I believe and trust God will work it out in my marriage as well as in yours. All you have to do is keep praying, stay in the Word, give it to him and don't even think about them. God is working behind the scenes on your behalf. I'm starting to see results for the better and you will to if you keep your faith and trust in God.

Father, I ask you to heal her broken heart, her children's broken heart and to soften his heart towards his family. Father I ask you in Jesus' mighty name to open his eyes so he can see the hurt he is causing his wife, to open his ears to be receptive to your word and I ask that you convict him and bring him to repentance Lord. Deal with him night and day Lord, and bring him to the point that he will beg his wife to take him back. In Jesus Holy Name I pray, AMEN!!!!

God bless you and God has already forgiven him and he loves you.
by: Chris

I am so sorry for your pain. Sometimes it is tough being a human being,whether Christian or not. The difference is we have the Lord and are already forgiven and live under his grace. Stay directed above and I hope that your marriage works out and God bless you for your loving heart and soul. Women were very special to Jesus on earth and are vital to all real men. Make sure that your husband is not hooked on porn. Porn gets into a man's heads and into a lot of trouble. Chances are your husband was fulfilling some dimented idea of what happiness was and is and lost his focus on God. David made the same mistake and is in the direct earthly lineage of Christ. God never promised that life would be easy, but thank Jesus that we have the Holy Spirit to guide and sooth us. Get in a group and talk to and with other Godly women who have been hurt and make sure that he is not a sex addict hooked on Porn. The internet can be a great and Godly tool , but a curse to addicts. Can you imagine Samson or David with the internet. God loves David, because he was a Godly man and a great leader despite his flaws. God bless you and your family and all men need strong women as most of us are just the opposite. We are strong on the outside but have many weaknesses on the inside and trust me , I know. Thank God for GOD !

thank you for your words
by: Anonymous

I just want to share with you what I have gone through. It may help you to stay strong knowing that things do workout for those who trust in God. I know just what you are feeling. My husband is back now almost a yr. He was in an adulterous relationship with his oldest son's mother. They were never married but did have a son 24 yrs ago.
All I can say is God is faithful. I experienced so much pain because my husband is my best friend. One day he was gone, he had moved all his stuff when I was at work. We didn't have an argument or anything. I came home to a note that said he loved me but had to leave. Satan is very busy trying to destroy marriages. He knows that 2 in the Lord is stronger than 1. My husband is a christian and a recovering alcoholic/addict. He was sober for almost 17 yrs and had picked up drinking when all this started. I can't tell you how hopeless I felt but I just held on to God by strings. I contacted every prayer site I could find and asked people to pray for my marriage. God is not a liar. I also went through problems with my teenager.We are still going through with him. He wanted to kill himself etc. I had to hospitalize him while all this was happening and also I had to move back with my parents who didn;t want me to stay there. I paid them while I was there for 6 months. My automobile died and I felt so alone. I am telling you this because God is faithful. Pray for the holy spirit to convict your husband of his adultery. Pray for him and for the other person involved. I am still praying for God to remove those ill feelings towards the other woman because they are still there and I know God does not want me to hold any unforgiveness in my heart. This woman was always in the wings for 16 years planting seeds of discord. She says she is a christian. She told my husband God brought him to her. We have to stand on God's word. God doesn;t change his word for our convenience. That;s all I could do was cry out to him. The devil doesn?t stop but I know what God has put together nothing can tear it apart. The devil is still attacking my family through my son. I bind that spirit of hopelessness and suicide in the mighty name of Jesus. Please keep our family in prayer also. It seems like when I share about how God has put my family back together, then all you know what breaks loose. I know the devil is a liar and God will keep my family together and we will serve him and be happy and love each other. We war not against flesh and blood but against powers principalities and spiritual wickedness in high places. I started quoting scripture at the devil and also telling God what he said in his word. It helped to get it in my spirit. I will pray for you because I know too well what you are going through. God bless you and hold on to GOd's word because his word is truth and his grace is sufficient.

My prayers and my heart is with you
by: Anonymous

Dear Brenda,
Like you, I too am in a married relationship for so long...nearly 20 years. I believe my husband has been faithful all this while. 3 months ago, to be exact, he was attracted to a woman 20 yrs younger. I found out by accident but he said that he was calling off the relationship. He assured me that nothing had begun so I do not have anything to worry about....
I even prayed for her to be healed, to have the sense of right and wrong, to be happy and to be able to move on....
I prayed and some time went by before I found out that he was still in contact with her. The messages exchanged were flirty, filled with sexual innuendos and very suggestive of their apparent attraction to each other.
I broke down and cried to God for help....
Most recently they were planning to meet and when asked, he lied to me straight.....black and white evidence shared by an anonymous person proved otherwise...
I am devastated but believe in God's ultimate plan. Even as I write this, I get this strong feeling that he's meeting her tonight...maybe I'm paranoid but my gut has been right, so far.
I am going to keep on praying to God to show us the way and unbearable as it seems, we will find the strength to go on....the Devil certainly smokescreens plenty and my husband, like yours are ensnared in this web of lies, deceit.....
I have full faith in God to redeem all of us. I'm praying now for God's strength to forgive graciously and not be bitter......Amen.
I will remember to pray for both of you in my every prayer.....
