What Am I Doing Wrong?

Hi. I have been married for 9 years now. 4 years ago, my wife told me that she did'nt love me anymore and that she was very unhappy in our marriage. We have a wonderful 6 y/o son together and 3 step children between us both. We have stayed together for the last 4 years for the sake of our 6 y/o son. We both have great relationships with him. I have been praying very hard about this for the last 4 years but I feel like I am alone. My wife is rude and mean to me all the time. I have absolutly NO peace or comfort in my life. I am misserable. I dont know why I feel as if GOD has shut me out. To be honest, I feel as if I am loosing faith and hope in my marriage. I am at the end of my rope and ready to give up. This is tearing me totally apart peice by peice, mentally and physically. I dont know how much more I can take. Why is GOD not helping me? I know I am not a perfect man and I am far from a saint, but I am tying to do whats right. I AM LOST. I am saved, but this is making it very hard for me to live the way a saved christian is supposed to live. Please pray for me and my family. I need guidance. I need GOD to move in my life in an extreme way! Thank you for your prayers and your concern.

Father, Please speak to this husband's heart and comfort him through this seemingly empty time in his life. Let him understand that the single set of footprints he sees are yours, and that you are carrying him. Please speak to his wife's heart, that she will know that you love her too. Soften her hardened heart, and allow forgiveness to fill this family. Unite this man and his wife once again, and do not allow the evil one to continue to influence their lives and separate them. Bless their household and their children, and let their lives be dedicated to you and your kingdom. Thank you for hearing our prayers. In Jesus' name, Amen

"Surrounded by Your Glory what will my heart feel, will I dance for You Jesus, or in awe of You be still. Will I stand in Your presence or to my knees will I fall, will I sing Hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all..."

"Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth shall speak" Father the cry of this man's heart is to save his marriage and family from being torn apart.
Lord he has shared his innermost feelings here for his brothers and sisters in Christ to join in prayer for him. In Jesus name Lord I ask you to honour this cry from the heart and Bless him with the wisdom and strength to deal with this problem.
Father so many men run away from responsibility and dont take a stand to fight for their family when it is under attack by the enemy.
Give this brother the full armour LORD.
Put on his head the helmet of SALVATION won by the BLOOD OF JESUS shed on the cross at Calvary.
Put on his chest the BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Around his waist the BELT OF TRUTH.
On his feet the GOSPEL OF PEACE.
Arm him LORD with the SWORD OF THE SPIRIT which is the WORD OF GOD.
And strengthen his arm to lift up over all the SHIELD OF FAITH that will quench every fiery dart the enemy hurls at him.
Give him the ability LORD to sing your PRAISE as the Israelites did every time they went in to battle.
Regardless of how he feels in the natural LORD, give him the ability to PRAISE you and lift up his voice to you GOD in Worship and THANKSGIVING.
Jesus said that what ever we bind on earth is bound in heaven and what ever we loose on earth is loosed in heaven and LORD in JESUS name I bind every work and influence of the enemy that is coming against this family and the marriage relationship.
Provide good counsell and support for this family LORD and protect the children from emotional and spiritual harm, in JESUS name.

There is a very good book written by Dr Henry Cloud and Dr John Townsend called BOUNDARIES.It is published by STRANDPublishing Sydney It was published in Australia by permission of Zondervan Publishing House Grand Rapids, Michigan U.S.A. I do highly recommend this book as a BIBLE based guide to know when to say "no" and when to say "yes" to take control of your life. GOD BLESS.

Update on my situation. My wife informed me last night that she is in fact leaving me. She took her wedding band off for the first time in 9 years and gave it back to me. I ask that you all continue to pray for me, that GOD may give me wisdom, comfort and help me keep faith that HE IS in control of the situation. Thank you all for your prayers and for taking the time to read my request. I love you all in CHRIST and am thankful that we have each other to pray. May GOD bless you all.

Father please in JESUS name be with this man as he seeks YOUR WILL in his life. Help him FATHER to support his children emotionally and spiritually, and show them the love of JESUS through his example, as he deals with the stress and pressures of his marriage situation.
Grant him discernment LORD, and WISDOM, like the wisdom of SOLOMON, to know what to say and what to do, to follow the path YOU want him on, in regards to the situation.
Father you have the box lid with the picture of the puzzle, all we have is the jumble of jigsaw pieces.
I ask for a BLESSING of extra FAITH to strengthen this brother and assist him on his journey in life.
Keep his heart and mind in PERFECT PEACE as he trusts in YOU LORD.
You promise us the PEACE that passes all understanding. Help him to stand on your word and claim that Peace daily, for himself, in the name of JESUS.
