My best friend and her husband have not been getting along lately. Him(Fernando O) is not a christian, He says he is but his not. He drinks alot among other things. My pray request is that Fernando go back to Mexico for a while cause he keeps saying he wants to go back there either this month or June. My reason is so that I can help my friend. He will not let me help her/bless her while he is there. It is hard to explain but my motives are sincere..Fernando is a very controling man and what he says goes. Just please pray that God will send Fernando out for awhile so I can help my friend and her kids.:angel-animated:I really feel a desire to help her. Thank you and God bless
Hi 2bleu.
Truly sounds like a sad situation.
Your request, though, is not what I could pray for. You are supposing that you have the best answer on how to solve this (send Fernando to Mexico for a while) instead of leaning on the Lord for the answer.
First, if this is an abusive situation, then the wife and children need to get out of there. This, I think, we would agree on. With the husband being so controlling, I understand this may be easier said than done.
Second: prayer is your strongest intercession (as you have requested here). But don't pray for your solution to the issue: pray for God's intervention. God can change Ferdnando. God can open a way for the woman and her children to get out of there and to safety -- apart from sending the husband to Mexico. Or God may usher him to Mexico...as you desire. Point being: leave it to God to decide how to open the door here.
Third: if this is not an abusive situation, but simply a controlling situation (which I understand could be emotionally abusive), then prayer is even more so the power that you need to intervene in this situation. Pray that God will touch this situation, this relationship and heal it. They are married, and scripture says that what God has joined no one should seperate. God can heal this relationship; God can change Ferdnando.
But let God do the changing; let God decide the way.
Pray. Pray. Pray. I will pray for your friend as well. And if you do get an open door to help, may God be with you and guide your thoughts and words to help heal the relationship...whatever it takes (even if that be getting the woman and her children to safety for a while).
God bless you! My prayers are with you.
