hi oliver ,
i dont want to be out of line here , i hope im not , but your case is almost like this man i knew.
His name was Tom Sims. He would come in the yahoo christian chat rooms and play songs on his guitar. He is an amazing singer , and awesome song writer. I knew him for about a year or so , then he came in one day so depressed. He said his wife left him . She cheated on him with his best friend. He said they were in his house with him , and he would play his songs for them. And had no clue they were haveing an affair.
this man was so broken for about a year. His wife left him and his kid went with her. His pain was so much , i was sad because i couldnt comfort him. He was like job , there was nothing i could say to him.
well not to leave you depressed , but the point of my telling you this is because , he came back online a while back. He praised God because his wife came back to him and his kid. He said all he had to do in the end was , rebuke satans work in seperating them. But i would add to that you should not only rebuke satan over your life. but speak faith over your life. say over your life that God will save your marraige , and that satan will not win. speak it in the name of the Son of God , so be it.
now after haveing done this. Stand with the shield of faith , and continue in useing the sword of the Spirit. And i will pray for you too.
oliver satan came against me in another way. I dont have a wife and kids , but i do have a dream , a hope of serving God , and he tried to take that from me.
One night i was so full of pain , so full of sorrow and doubt. I felt like letting go , like giveing up. like i was being crushed , i felt like speaking and cursing myself.
But i didnt!! i spoke the oposite of what i felt, and what my situation looked like. This was no small feat. This was one of the hardst things for me to do , but i did it. and i trusted in the Lord. I could still feel the fear , and the doubt and the pain. I endured it for the night.
then i was chating online one day and a prophet confirmed that God would use me. He spoke to me those things that i wanted to hear. Those things that i told myself , those things i comforted myself in while doubt and fear was upon me. And i believe its because i didnt give into the doubt. i didnt speak in the fear or doubt that God would not use me. but i did the oposite. and in time God strenghtend me , He spoke a word to me and confirmed what i spoke over my life.
so i say to you oliver , my friend. I dont know the pain you have , or the fears that satan comes against you with. But God is almighty , and if you speak in Faith that He has blessed you with His favor. And do as david did when his wife was taken from him. Encourage yourself in the Lord. for He is with you. Then surely God will save your marriage. And if not oliver well there is nothing more that could have been done than that , and im sure you believe that as well.
I pray for you and my faith is sure. that for Christ sake He will give it to you. Just practice what i did, and do what we all must do , stand in the armor of God and wait. Speaking the Word of God over our lifes. calling things not as they are , but Callling things that be not , as though they were.
you are a man of faith , fear not for God is with you.
peace and blessings
your friend in Christ
