Please pray! (Court hearing tomorrow)

I am asking for prayer for my kids tomorrow that the Lord shows favor to them and myself tomorrow as we go to court to have the custody decided by a judge. Yes, I am going through a divorce and I have discussed this with many Christians and friends. It is heart breaking to have to go through and not something I ever desired but is happening. I understand what scripture says about divorce I am just asking for prayer for my children sake for their protection because I don't feel their mother is living in an environment that would help them grow in a clean, healthy, secure Christian place.

Thank you all I appreciate it very much.

Matt....I'm sure this painful situation is a terrible burden. I know there are those here on SI who will be remembering you and your kids tomorrow. And I will be too.

Take courage that the Lord Jesus is right there with you all in this situation. He can also bring healing to each family member as forgiveness is embraced.

Blessings on you......dj

Oh Matthew! I am praying.....

Dear Matthew,

Will be praying!

Keep your eyes on Jesus brother.

Praying Matthew

Matthew I will be praying for you also. I am so sorry to hear this news. I feel a burden on my heart though to remind you to pray for your wife, no matter what. Don't let the enemy harden your heart, keep praying for her salvation and trust in the LORD. HE loves you all so very much.

God bless

How'd it go Matthew? Have been praying....

Oh LORD! Please stop this! Thou art a miracle working God, and Thou can change the hearts of Thy children. O Father, please turn the tide!

Brothers and sisters I appreciate the prayers very much, as hard as I fought losing full custody I did lose it. Their mother gets them in the morning while I am at work and every other weekend overnight. I really am uneasy about them being around their mother for long periods of time because she is going down a very destructive road. My prayer is for protection of my children's well being and that the truth penetrates their hearts so much they are protected from deception. I also pray they don't pick up all the habits their mother has when they are with her.

I am sorry to hear this sad news. I will continue to pray for your children and for both you and your wife. I know it is difficult to see at this moment but GOD is still in control and HE does love you all so very much.

God Bless

God's love and control are definitely not in question in this situation :) It is what keeps me going!

This is d first time I've come to terms with d pains of divorce as felt by the d Christian man. Its not that popular down here in d Tropics. It tears me apart I tell you.

The Lord is your strength Brother Matthew.

Continue to claim ur kids as God's heritage. I understand that they're sanctified for your sake.
"For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy." (1 Corinthians 7:14).

This may be rather easier said than done, but you may never enjoy total victory as löng as u harbour deep resentment in ur heart towards ur wife for all she's put you thru.

Its easier at this point to pray for ur kids' salvation and let ur wife sort out herself in hell if she likes but thats not d Way of d Cross.

May the Holy Spirit help you in these very trying moments my Brother.

Our Lord didnt loose anyone God brought to Him excpt that son of perdition. So u too may not loose anyone God brought to you as ur INHERITANCE includin ur wife if u claim d promises. She is not d "son of perdition", therefore she can stil be saved.

Also rebuke every influence of witchraft on ur family. Derek Prince's sermön "witchcraft: public enemy number one" wil be helpful along these lines.

Kindly text me her name @ +2348034365429 or @ uzosikejoe@facebook.com if you deem it necessary. Would like to pray 4 her by name. Guess I should be my Bro's keeper now & stick out my neck for this in d place of Prayer.

Have been askin d Lord for a Prayer-burden and I think its time to look around for needs that can be carried on my knees. It could also be a way of sowing a seed for a blissful marriage since am still single.

May the peace of God, which transcends all our powers of thought be a garrison to guard your heart in this moment of darkest night in Jesus' Name... Amen!

I appreciate that Joe, and I am definitely in a battle with my heart and I ask God to keep working away the bitterness and any unforgiveness that may reside. It's definitely tough but I have a wonderful family and church family that has been super supportive and encouraging allo this time.

Her first name is Kansas if you wish to pray for her, and I too pray for her repentance.

Got it Sir. Count me in on this one.
"And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen." (Romans 16:20).KJV

"and before you know it the God of peace will come down on Satan with both feet, stomping him into the dirt. Enjoy the best of Jesus! " (Romans 16:20). TM

"And before long, God the giver of peace will crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you!" (Romans 16:20). Weymouth

...And by the mouth two or three witnesses, a matter is established.

I'm not going to attempt words...I have enough anguish in my own home and with my own children that all I can say is I feel your heart...I will be praying....sometimes when things seem so utterly horrible and hopeless, and there is absolutely nothing humanly speaking that one can do, I have been able to pull myself out of despair by focusing on the great glory that God will get out of His workings in this situation...maybe that thought can help you...I am SO GRATEFUL that you have family and church support...You can count on my prayers!

I appreciate all the prayers and support in this rough part of my life. I know God is good and has a plan for it all. I have kept my chin up and am seeking His face. Will not the Judge of the World do right?
