Heavenly Father,
I am praying for healing and restoration of our marriage. Please send your Holy Spirit to Mark for him to be healed and find his way back to us. Please touch his heart and remind him of all the sacrifices we have surpassed with You.
My heart is breaking every time our kids would ask me about their father. Both our son and daughter were so close to their daddy and I know that it will break their hearts if they get to know of our situation. We are raising two wonderful children and would not want them to feel we are incomplete.
As each day passes, it is getting difficult. Being apart from my husband, and raising two kids in a foreign country is challenging. But then I know you are always with us, You will never let go and You have better plans for our family. Please tell me dear Lord, what is it that you want me to learn from this situation? Continue to guide me and guard my heart with the works of the devil. I believe that you are working on Mark as well. I trust that you will heal us both in your perfect time.
My heart reaches out to you, dear Lord. Please continue to protect my kids while I am at work. Please give me all the strength I would need to raise my kids in the absence of my husband. I am praying for provisions as well. Please help Mark to use this time to heal, to realize what is worth, to be better, to be ready and be the man he had always wanted to be. I still believe that Mark is a good man, a great father to our kids and a loving husband. Please break any strongholds that he has right now, may it be his pride, ego, insecurities, hatred, pain, and all that the devil is telling him. But let him see the love, forgiveness, compassion, and peace in our hearts, in our family.
Thank you dear Lord and we love you so much.
This we ask through Christ our Lord, Amen.

The following prayers are for you to pray for restoration of your marriage and also a prayer that you can pray to restore the marriage of others.
Marriage Restoration
As Christians we go through difficult times in our marriages much like the unsaved world. However the one thing we have is our Savior Jesus Christ whom we go to with our marriage restoration prayers.
He is waiting on us to come to Him and allow Him to work in our lives. The word of God says “Whom God has joined together let no man put asunder”. Therefore, it is His will that your marriage should work. When you go to Him in prayer keep this in mind so that you do not doubt that this is His will for your life.
There are times when even after you’re prayed these prayers for restoration of your marriage it still does not get restored. Well, there are several things you need to keep in mind:
- Are you both saved? If not then you need to look at the Prayer of Salvation also know as the Sinners Prayer
- God wants what is best for both of you so you need to be open to where He will lead you. You should both be praying through this process and confessing your sins so that there is nothing standing in the way of your answered prayers.
Here is the Marriage Restoration Prayer that can be prayed for someone that you know who may ask you to pray for them.
Lord, I come in the name of Jesus asking that you to make a way in this wilderness of healing and restoration for ________ (name of wife & husband) in their marriage. Lord, that your grace is sufficient to carry them through difficult times, your power is made perfect in their weaknesses and the power of Christ is in them. 2 Corinthians 12:9 As Christians, greater is You that is in _____________ (name of wife & husband) than the evil one in the world because your power is greater than the power of Satan and all who do his work. 2 Chronicles 32:7 I am so thankful that You are watching to make certain that your Word is fulfilled and that You are performing it in our marriage. Jeremiah 1:12 Thank you that you will complete the work that you started in this marriage. Philippians 1:6 O Sovereign LORD, you are God! Your words are trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to me.

You have spoken, and with your blessing, this home and marriage will be established with blessings forever. II Samuel 7:25-29
Lord, I pray that you will allow healing and reconciliation to take place. That whatever hurts or disappointments they have experienced can be mended through the power of your undying eternal Love. We realize Father that they cannot change anything that has happened. But, they can go forth together keeping, renewing and once again honoring their vows. We ask that you endow them with wisdom to endure and a tongue that speaks healing, restoration & peace.
Abba, I ask that you would mend their hearts closely together and be the center of their marriage. Lord we ask that they seek forgiveness for any wrong doing.

Almighty Father, You are omniscient, omnipotent and able to do things that are impossible for man. I humble myself before you today Lord and ask you to restore my marriage.
