Please Pray for Parent's Marriage

Recommended Posts

My dad left the house tonight once again. I was doing my homework when I heard the door slam and minutes later my mom comes inside my room crying like crazy saying my dad left us once again. I don't know what to do, I am honestly tired of all the troubles that have come my way during these past few years. I feel so exhausted, I mean I was barely trying to recover from the past problems my parents have had because they caused a great impact to my emotional reactions. I was already in college and only needed about a semester or two to earn my bachelor's and now I feel as if I can't continue studying with this happening. I don't know what to tell my mother about the problems, it's so hard being the only daughter and the only one left in the household. I've never been married and in the past I was able to stay strong and trusting in God, but now I feel so weak and tired. I try to block out what is going on as if I don't want to accept it. My dad texted me after he left saying that my mother and him continue to argue and seem to not understand one another, he said there's no use of living that way. Why would he do such a thing to his family though? That is no reason to abandon his household, it takes two to make a marriage work. It seems as if every time my mother begins to try to get closer to God and begins to talk to others of salvation this happens. Please help me pray for my parents, keep my family, me , and my house in your prayers because I don't know what is going to happen anymore.

Thank you & may God bless you.

Dear Abigail,
Let me tell you I know exactly how you feel. I went though this with my parents when I was about your age. When there is no peace in the family it's one of the most awful things that can happen to us. My parents turned from being a loving couple that never said a rude word to each other =for many many years to two people who kept fighting and arguing constantly. They stopped "understanding" each other. My dad too kept running out and when he threatened with divorce once more I thought "I don't care. Let them divorce as long as this horrible arguing will stop". In the end they did not divorce and are living together still.
But let me encourage you not to feel desperate or take any responsibility for their actions. Like you said, it takes two to make it work and it takes two to argue. I feel like your dad did not abandon his family, he just got out of the situation that he simply could not handle. It might seem like adults can handle anything if they try, but in reality there are so many situations that are way above our heads and the only thing that can help us is from God alone. So please don't blame your dad or your mom (and most important yourself) for whatever has happened.
Even though the situation with your mom and dad seems like out of control, but trust me, even though we don't see, feel or understand it God IS in control and He IS keeping His Hand right on it! I am telling this from my own experience! And this alone gave me huge inner peace and rest and also gave me strength to stand in faith for change.
What I would suggest to do is to daily speak God's peace and joy to flood into your home, your household, into your parents' hearts and minds. If it looks like a fight is about to break out, what I do is get into my prayer room by myself and start releasing the Angels of God to minister Peace into the situation, I pray for the Spirit of Peace and Spirit of Joy to come in, I pray for God's Grace to envelope everyone in my household and guess what - NO FIGHT or arguing happens (I do that in the situation with our kids, because they sometimes push us beyond limits :-)
For yourself to get rid of the pain caused to you I would strongly suggest to cry out to the Lord to simply take this pain away. I have done this and trust me, it WORKS every time. Just keep crying out to Him to take away this pain completely - to heal the wounds. I've done this numerous times and it never fails. I am not talking about days or weeks, I am talking hours. It's like one minute you feel like every cell in your body hurts like crazy and the next minute - it's GONE. All you feel is peace and no pain at all. The first time it happened I was stunned! I was like "What has just happened?! How is this even possible?!" Praise God! It does work. Just don't stop asking till it's gone. If these lying feelings of pain try to come back, just start crying out again. Praise God, they will leave! God is so awesome and He loves you so dearly, He adores you and both your parents. He will never leave you, He is with you through everything and as soon as we cry out to Him, He always responds. God is so awesome, I don't even have words to express.
Sorry this is long. I am praying for you and your family! I decree that no weapon formed against you or your household shall prosper, in Jesus' Name! I release the Angels of God to minister peace and restoration to your heart, mind and emotions as well as your mom and dad. Whatever the devil is trying to steal and destroy, I call redeemed by the Blood of Jesus, restored and made whole, in Jesus' Name! I pray for God's divine protection like a a wall of fire all around Abigail's family and a canopy of fire above them. I decree that God hides them under His wings and pinions and that they are safe and enjoying peace and loving family relationship, fully inaccessible to any evil, in Jesus' Name! I give all the praise and all the Glory to God, our Heavenly Father, Graceful and Merciful to all of us at all times! Amen and Amen!

Thank you so much for the birthday prayer. I know it has been awhile since, but I hadn't logged on in so long because I became so busy with school school school and I still am but I'm happy because I have been getting many classes out of the way and my grades have been high thanks to the Lord. I also passed my driving test recently and received my license. I have been keeping everyone on this website in my prayers every time the Lord reminds me as I'm praying since sometimes I have lots on my mind. I will update everything that has happened in another post which will include my prayer requests.

God bless! :)
