(USA) To who it may concern. Ye of little faith. It there anything too hard for God? Nothing is impossible with God. I just want to encourage anyone who feels that God cannot restore a marriage. The devil wants you to believe a lie. Do not be in agreement with him. The devil is the one who stole your marriage. Get in agreement with God and his word. First, forgive spouses who may have left. Then I hope you allow the Holy Spirit to heal you. In addition, there is a ministry called Rejoice Marriage Ministry that believes and knows God can and will restore a dead marriage according to the word of God and God’s timing. Whoever you are, please do not give up on God and his word. Get spiritual support and stay connected to a ministry that believes the word of God. God does not go against his word, therefore, God does heal hurting marriages even after a divorce and more. In Jesus name.
(USA) Rejoice Marriage Ministry, if I recall correctly no longer works with men. (I may be thinking of another, so I reserve the right to be wrong.) I do recall working with them, but nothing fruitful came out of it when my ex-wife left years ago.
So while it’s true they are out there. I can honestly say I didn’t find them to be of much help. Maybe others will, but my experience was not positive.
(USA) Well I guess I’m here to ask for prayers from you guys. I’m not married but engaged to be. Our relationship though is almost breaking down. He loves me and I love him but I guess we are not good communicators. He tears me up with his words sometimes and disrespects me by not respecting my culture. He doesn’t like my parents coz my parents are controlling though. And when I’m hurt then yes, sometimes I do say things that hurts him. I just don’t agree with him most of the time… even though what he thinks is not bad. Example… he would rather save up money for buying a car for us instead of flying to see me and tell my parents formally about the wedding. (Yes we have long distance relationship.) And he usually thinks that his decisions are right and best for our future even though it hurts me. Anyway, it’s so long of a story. But I don’t only love him… I believe he was God’s answer when I prayed for a spouse. Coz he does demonstrate the traits I prayed for… but just didnt know all this other stuff that comes with it lol. Anyway, I’m tired trying to make this work out. Please pray for us.
(IRELAND) My wife and I have been together 9 years, married for five. We have a 3 years old daughter who we both love dearly. We have had our ups and down but this year has been the worst. We separated for a brief period but through the grace of God worked things out.
For the last one month, we have had arguements almost everyday about nothing and everything. 10 days ago, she said she doesn’t love me anymore, doesn’t want to see me anymore. I tried to reason with her but when I saw am getting nowhere, packed my things and left. I have not seen her or my daughter since then and my calls go unanswered. In three days we are going to court to work out custody of our daughter and what have you.
To cut a long story short, she wants us to divorce but I want us to work on our marriage. I believe God will intercede and I hope to come back on this forum and say that God did help save my marriage. All I am asking from all of you is your prayers. Be blessed
(S.AFRICA) Thank you Kris you words are so true.
(NIGERIA) So many people are going through a lot in their marriage. The challenges are enormous and can be distracting. They sometimes overwhelm to the point that you are no longer in tune with God. We need to keep on believing God for his promises, he will restores according to his timing not ours. Stay blessed.
(USA) Tony, I understand fully where you are coming from. I know God can restore my marriage, but will He? How much control do we have? I’ve fasted, cried, prayed, knocked, sought, for over 2 years. I’ve lived in fear of falling off the tight rope of faith.
I’ve seen miracles during this time, so I know God sees me and hears me. He just has not brought my ex back. Is the ball in my court or in His? I am confused at times.
I used to think that if I knocked hard and long enough that LUKE 18:1 would happen. I had no peace. My ex was always on my mind.
You got to give the results over to God or you will drive yourself and everyone around you crazy. Also, be careful what you pray for because you might just get it. It is always better to pray “Thy will be done”.
(USA) Have you seen God revive a dead or dying marriage? Yes–Read the testimony below:

(USA) There seems to be a bit of confusion here between two states, one is Biblical and one is not. To be more specific, when we refer to “giving or marriage to God”, does not mean that God possess your body and overrides your free-will. There is NO Biblical precedence for this. As Christians, we frequently hurl Christian-eez without the process of thinking things through in conjunction to actual Biblical teachings. When one prays for their marriage, God will not take over the husband and wife and force them into a different pattern of behavior, against their will. God, through His word, has provided a blueprint for us to follow in conjunction to how we love one-another.
If I were to ask most Christians if they have studied the Song of Solomon and applied it to their lives; they will respond “no”. In fact, most have never read it. The churches are so infiltrated with psychology, myths, Victorianism, etc. it is no wonder that Christians have no idea what a truly Christian marriage is. The Biblical part, or second state, is this; we must apply God’s word. We must study the ENTIRE word of God in terms of understanding God’s blueprint for marital love – not just Ephesians chapter 5. We MUST emulate his teachings by choosing His ways, not ours. This applies to BOTH the WIFE and the HUSBAND. We must dump the ignorance of psychologists and embrace and implement God’s word. Remember this truth, God will not override your will; you must submit your will to God’s will.
