Pray for Marriages (Healing from Spiritual Viruses)

Greetings Prayer Warriors,

If you are like me, you are feeling very saturated with all the news on the “respiratory virus” which has swept the world and caused tens of thousands of deaths. My heart is filled with compassion for all of those affected. However, I am compelled to mention the viruses which no one discusses, those that slowly and covertly kill the soul. One such virus is internet pornography. It literally has gone viral, destroying many souls while absolutely crushing the marriages in its path.  

This virus not only affects men, but women. It also affects children as it can lead to human trafficking. These children may become the “models” or the objects of perverse sexual fantasies. This is ugly stuff to bring up, but much prayer is needed in this regard. 

Because of their hardness of heart, they have become callous and have handed themselves over to licentiousness for the practice of every kind of impurity to excess.  Ephesians 4:18-19

Lord, how much agony the sins against purity must have caused you! We call upon your mercy!  Humble those who must first admit they have a problem. Wipe clean the mind marred by distorted images that play in a never-ending loop. Rewire the brain that has lost its normal connections, reactions, and sensitivities. Bring healing to spouses whose hearts have been assaulted by such betrayals. Protect the children lured into human trafficking and increase the number of guardian angels provided them, that they may be find the path out. Come to all those in need of your assistance! Jesus, we trust in your merciful love.

Put to death, then, the parts of you that are earthly: immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and the greed that is idolatry. Colossians 3:5

Peace, Joy, and Love,
Janet

Prayer can break the chain of sin that attempts to keep us bound. Keep praying and pass it on!!
