Dear Heavenly Father,

I come before You today with a heavy heart, seeking Your divine intervention in the life of my prodigal spouse. Your Word reminds us in Luke 15:11-32 of the parable of the prodigal son, a powerful testament to Your unfailing love and the redemption You offer to all who stray from Your path. I pray, in the name of Jesus, for Your redemption and restoration to be poured out upon my beloved spouse.

Lord, You know the pain and anguish that fills my soul as I witness their wandering from Your truth. I lift them up to You, asking that You open their eyes to the destructive path they have chosen and grant them the grace to return to Your loving arms. Help them to experience the truth of Psalm 34:18, that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit.

Holy Spirit, I ask that You convict their heart and bring them to a place of repentance. Fill them with a deep longing for a renewed relationship with You, for You are the source of all healing and restoration. Remind them of Your promise in Joel 2:25, that You will restore the years the locusts have eaten, and that You can bring beauty from ashes.

Lord Jesus, You are the ultimate example of love and forgiveness. Grant me the strength to extend that love and forgiveness to my prodigal spouse, just as You have done for us. Teach me to love them unconditionally, as You have loved us, even when we were lost in sin. Help me to see them through Your eyes, knowing that they are fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image.

Father, I also bring my family before You, for they too bear the burden of my spouse's absence. Strengthen our bond as we navigate this difficult season together. Help us to lean on one another, to offer support and encouragement, and to lift each other up in prayer. May we, as a family, draw closer to You and experience Your peace and healing.

Heavenly Father, I trust in Your divine plan for my prodigal spouse and my family. I believe in Your power to bring about transformation and restoration. I have faith that You will work all things together for their good, according to Your purpose. May Your love and mercy surround us, and may Your grace be poured out abundantly.

Thank You, dear God, for hearing my heartfelt prayer. Thank You, God the Father, for Your unconditional love and endless patience. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for guiding us back to Your loving arms. And thank You, Jesus, for Your sacrifice on the cross, which makes redemption and restoration possible.

In Your holy and precious name, I pray.

Amen.
