January 30, 2017 at 7:14 pmHello,
Me and my wife recently got married in October of last year and these last couple months have been the hardest months of our lives. We both weren’t in a healthy spot two months ago and things spun out of control and trust on both sides shattered. Some days it feels like God isn’t listening, other days it feels like all He is doing is listening to me. This last week has been relapse for me. I was doing great for 3-4 weeks and this last week I fell back into “hopelessness” every day I feel myself getting deeper in deeper into this hole and I still am doing my best to encourage myself in Gods word and resist the lies…. but it’s getting hard, they feel like they are getting louder and louder and all I want to do is silence them. I’d love if you could be praying for me specifically. I don’t want to get lost in those lies. I want to find rest in God. I want to be like Jesus in all of this. I am in desperate need of His love, acceptance and hope. I really do feel empty right now and I don’t want this for me. I don’t want this for my marriage, what’s left of it. I am needing breakthrough. We are needing breakthrough.SheilaTPrayers: 2920Requests: 24

A broken spirit and a contrite heart God will not despise, so know that God sees your pain and yearns to heal you and restore you. Few points to note :
1st walk in total forgiveness and hold no hard feelings against anyone as these are 2 things that lead to many people feeling distant from God. The feeling of hopelessness comes straight from the enemy of your soul and you have to counter it back with HOPE. Anytime you feel negative thoughts coming to you ; remind yourself loudly – I am redeemed by the blood of Christ. I am NOT hopeless, I have hope in Christ Jesus. Now remember you cannot claim victory if you are walking in sin so desire to walk the narrow path that leads to eternal life.
The word of God tells us to submit to God fully, flee from the devil and he will flee from you.( James 4:7) It is very true. Also as believers we are in constant warfare -spiritual and you cannot wage this war with your own strength. Please Put on the full armor of GOD daily ( Ephesians 6:10-18) Failure to do so , exposes you to so much attacks from the enemy .
I pray that both you and your wife will forgive each other and that you will let CHRIST be the head of your family, you as the husband will submit to Christ and your wife will in turn submit to you.
Both of you purpose each day to bring glory to God. Do not try to change your mate, ask God to work on you and as He does it , your mate will change for the best. Marriage can be very beautiful when we let CHRIST take the seat and we listen to him.
Take heart my brother your marriage will succeed as many have including mine. Just put God 1st , Love your wife and seek to do what is right in the eyes of God.
God will truly amaze you !.
God bless you.

I find singing songs of worship that are inspiring to me helps so much and gives me a starting point for hope. God is your rock I pray you get close to him. -
