Dear Lisa Marie, I am so sorry for your pain. I know only too well what you are going through and it is most definately an attack from Satan. I urge you to seek help from a local church, from family, as you need to be supported and to guard your self worth and your precious children. Have a look at Rejoice Ministries too and go to councelling yourself. Equip yourself and do not let the enemy make you doubt yourself ok.

Father God, I ask for LisaMarie to KNOW YOUR POWER, in this situation. I pray that she be granted courage, encouragement and peace while she goes through this trial. You are at her side, for it is written in the bible that you never leave us. You have seen her tears. Father God PROTECT this family. I pray for this man as well, forgive him Lord for her knows not what he has done and is doing. Rid him of alcohol and lust in the name of Jesus Christ. He is a solder, may he see the mighty army of YOURS, come against him and save him from his sins. Lord Jesus Christ, I ask that you intervene. AMEN.

Hi LisaMarie

I won't even pretend to know how you're feeling right now but thankfully our Father does. I've prayed for you but rather than guidance I can share what I feel the Lord showed me..... Think of the parable of the lost sheep and how the shepherd left the 99 to find the one that was lost. Our magnificent Father has been with you through all of these battles and heartbreak and knows so well how you have worked hard to honour your marriage covenant. Don't listen to the lies about it all being your fault - "the accuser of the brethren". All I can feel is the immense love and respect the Lord has for you. The Lord WILL lead you through this dark tunnel, He just gave me a picture of you holding His hand as He leads you through it and your children holding yours as your faith helps them through these difficult times as well. I have also lifted your husband up in prayer and I feel that he is such a troubled soul. Do you have the support of a local church?

With love in Jesus.

David.

My husband and I have been married for 9 years, we have 3 children. 3 1/2 years ago he was having an affair and left us, we were seperated for 1 1/2. He has battled an alcohol addiction for 8 years, but had been sober for a little over a year.

He returned from Afghanistan just 2 weeks ago. Our marriage seemed to be doing amazingly. But then he decided to start drinking again and have another affair. The woman is someone he was deployed with, so in reality I have no idea how long it has been going. Not that that makes a difference. I caught him at her house where we got into a huge fight, the police were called and at some point he pulled out his knife. He was arrested and is now not allowed to come home. He told me he threw my wedding ring away. He keeps saying he did nothing wrong, that it was all my fault for going over there. I am so lost and broken right now. I thought our marriage was wonderful, I thought we were both happy. I am heartbroken. After his first affair and we rekindled our marriage I just thanked God for a second chance at our marriage, I put so much effort to improving all of the things I could. I worked on myself. I tried so hard. I just need guidance right now. I haven't ever felt so lost in my life.
