Divorce...Prayer Request

Good Morning,

Malachi 2:16 (NIV)
"I hate divorce," says the LORD God of Israel, "and I hate a man's covering himself with violence as well as with his garment," says the LORD Almighty.
So guard yourself in your spirit, and do not break faith.

I don't even know how to begin today. You see, I am extremely sad and my heart is being broken. In one day I have had news that there are three couples who are having marital problems and that splits in those marriages may very well occur. It's hard even to sit here and type as the screen is blurred with my tears and my hands shake in grief even at the news of difficulties in the marriages of people that I love and care deeply about.

The enemy is attacking these people and I feel that the devil is trying to disrupt any relationship that he can.

So, rather than spend a lot of time today trying to send out all the reasons that we should NOT ever go into the courts to dissolve marriages, I would ask...PLEASE!...that everyone who reads these words just take some time today and pray. Pray hard! Pray long! Pray from your heart. Pray that ALL marriages for ALL of the people we know can be repaired if they are in any way broken. Pray that ALL marriages, all couples, will be filled with love and compassion and forgiveness for wrongs.

Please pray that these three couples that I know of directly, and that everyone who is right now facing difficulty in a marriage, pray that they will seek proper guidance. First from God and then from people who can help them get through these times of difficulty.

Pray, please. Join me in my prayers. Pray together with your spouses and loved ones. Pray with your individual congregations. Pray in your groups.

Be in agreement with Betty and I as we pray for these people we love so much. Help us to fill the heavens with our prayers and cries for God to come into their lives and put back together that which is coming apart.

Help me in my prayers, please.

Love, peace, and blessings,

David
