Testimony

My wife of 18 years has been in prayer for some time hoping that I would wake up and change. I was not aware of the depth of her concern. I was saved years ago but only started going to church last year...a 'deal' I made with God if he would let her biopsy come out negative. The Holy Spirit has been growing in me which I think triggers the enemy to step up his game. My wife has decided to move out because she can't take it. The whole experience has been a spiritual awakening that I believe will point me so much closer to God. And I believe at this point that the only way that she will come back is when I have become much more like Christ and am glowing like an ember. And I can't proceed with "getting her back" as a motive. This is definitely a spiritual attack.

Satan, I rebuke you in Jesus name and command you to take your hands off my marriage and my relationship.

Jesus was crucified, buried and in 3 days was gloriously resurrected. All things are possible with God, the only true power that has ever existed.

I ask you and pray to you Lord Jesus to loose into me and my wife the spirit of love, unity, and joy according to your word. Amen.

Friends and brothers in Christ, I ask all of you with all my soul, please pray for the restoration of my marriage. Our marriage will forever stand as a testament to the Glory of God and a cornerstone for many, many brothers and sisters to follow. If Paul could be saved then our marriage can and will be restored.

My husband lefted me about a year ago because he claims he wasn't happy with me no more and wanted a divorce. I couldn;t understand why, because he stayed away from home with the type of job he had more than he was home. I asked him countlessly to come off the road for our marriage sake and he would tell me soon and soon it would be longer trips on the road until he finally decideded that he no longer wanted a marriage with me. This of coarse devistated me to the point that it affected my health my life took a turn I lost my home furniture and car depending solely on others for my care. well God raised up people to help me get throught it. We were married 11 yrs both serving the Lord and in ministry. I just could believe this was happening to us who were considerd by most of those who knew us as strong christians with great faith and knowlege of the word of God . I realize now after a year that the enemey as done this he is attacking many christian marriages. We who know God's word have to take a stand and realize this and pray more fast more because the devil knows that we are weak in our flesh.
I have been praying for a whole year about my marriage and my life.My relaltionship with God is stronger than it ever has been I believe God allowed me to go thru this as atest of my faith in Him. After a whole year of no communication no support I have not recieved any divorce papers but an e-mail from my husband whom I have had no knowledge of his whereabouts or whom he was living has sent me an e-mail stating that he wants me to pray about our marriage getting back together when ib truth I never stopped.

I know God is working it all out we just have to trust him. I am a witness and a testimony of what prayer can do. Please continue to pray for God's will and his direction for my marriage and life. There is still a lot that has to be over come. Thank you
in advance.

In Care OF Christ

Thank you Jim. AFter I posted this plea for Grace, I was directed by the Holy Spirit to immediately go out and get a particular book on restoring Christian marriages. I tore into this book and absorbed most of it. That evening I paced my driveway and spoke out loud to Jesus, asking for him to make me new and telling him that I wanted to follow his lead from here on out. I have never been so sincere about anything in my 45 years. The next morning, I sat down at the kitchen table to read my Bible, hoping to be able to see my wife as she came into the kitchen for coffee. I knew this would be one of the last days before she moved out. I was reading Philippians 6:10 - 18 Armor of God when I just started making a drawing of a figure wearing the spiritual items described there:helmet of Salvation, sheild of Faith, sword of Spirit, etc. Once I finished that I went back and read the passage again. I then wimpered for a second then some giberish came out of my mouth. I didn't understand it but it felt OK. And I've been asking Jesus for a miracle so I let it happen again. This time it was louder, faster, and higher in pitch and longer in duration. The 3rd time and after, I don't have a major recollection of what was going on except that there was hooping like sounds and my arms were flailing all around. Then my wife and daughter arrived. They had been asleep. My wife freaked. Shew got her stuff and left. My daughter seemed to understand what happened. I immediately felt calm and not overly concerned that my wife was leaving (demon of abandonment had left) instead I prayed for her safety of which she didn't want to hear as she went out the door. I can honestly say that many things changed in me. One interesting thing is that now I like to have a lot of lights on. I used to like like it dim and got nasty when someone turned on a light when I was in a dimly lit area. There's so much I could say right now but even though I thought I was saved 25 years ago, I now know that I never made a decision to really give my life over to Jesus. But now I have and with complete sincerity. I beleive God healed me Thurdsay morning and becuase his solutions are immaculate, he did this in front of my wife and daughter. Praise God! Men, if you were here, I would shake you with the strength Jesus has given me and tell you to come to Jesus with everything you got. I thank you Jim for your prayers and know in your heart that they were answered. My wife has a lot of pain and that will take time. I have been giving sacraficial love every moment I can by giving her all the monetary and physical support I can (moving furniture,etc), in obediance to my Savoir, Jesus Christ. Only God can restore our marriage. He has done a great work in restoring me. I have faith that he is not done with me and my heart is steadfastly longing for the day that I can seek God side by side with my wife. For now, we will do it apart, which will still provide some togetherness. Last night I did thank her for making a sacrifice for me. She is hurting so much that she can't see what awesome thing she has done and I can sense that she has the urge to think that I am making it all up. In addition, I can sense that she's angry that I didn't do it years ago. And she's angry that I'm being healed right now while she's still hurting. But I did get to tell her which is good. I wasn't sure if I should but now I feel better telling her. The wife cannot sustain a spiritual life for 2 people. Especially if the man has demons in him. I've had these demons for some time and I can't think of anyway I would have gone to Jesus like I did without losing my wife. No way. I had to be this devistated to cry out and put my will, my ego, up as the only thing of perceived worth to submit to Jesus. Again, I could go on. Any men out there going through this, let's talk. Put on the Armor of God and get back to God. One other note. I go to a Baptist church. They have no experience with demons coming out of people. But it was real and it was a mircale. A Christmas miracle. Praise God. Thank you for having the web resource where I could go and make a powerful statement in preparation for my showdown with the enemy. I am victoriuos. I am the Lord's servant. I am my wife's servant and my daughter's servant. I will do whatever Jesus desires. I am finding peace. I want my wife back but in a new way. I got to get ready for church. Love all of you. Brad
