First of all you have to center yourself on God. Realize that your purpose for being is to serve Him. Recognize that you have been bought and paid for with great cost,the cost of Jesus' life. Give yourself to him again, fresh and new. Recognize yourself as a bond slave of Christ. Slaves have no rights, no expectations, no demands. This will free yourself from expecting her to do what you expect, to do what you think is right. Next, forgive her, forgive her for being human, born with weakness and born in a sinful fallen world. Recognize that she has been taken captive by the enemy. That her thought life has been under attack and she has believed the lie. Release her from your expectations, and love her with unconditional, undemanding love. Give expecting nothing in return. Take up your cross, your burden, your heartache, recognize it as death to your flesh, death to your self, and that death releases resurrection power to flow. This may be too much information too fast for you, that is okay, just do the parts you understand, and ask for explanations of the rest. By moving into a closer, fuller, more intimate relationship with Jesus you are moving into a postition where restoration and healing can take place. You are moving into a postition where you are blessable, where God can bless you. Start with yourself, because until you are whole you can do nothing to help her. Give her to God, tell him that you can't help her, but that you kn ow that He can. Talk to me, and let me know how much of that you followed.

Brandon, hello.

Prayer for your life:

Lord,
Help! Help Brandon know what to do. He wants to hear You, he has come here and asked for Your children to -pray with him, so here I am, standing alongside my Brother who is hurting and in great need. Please inspire my prayer.
Help him to be strong because You promised that when we are weak, You would come and be strong with us, which means we are strong too!

Lord, Moses had help holding his arms up during a long battle. I ask that Brandon look and see if there are helpers nearby sent by You! Keep Brandon's wife safe! May she have time to sort out things in a safer way than she is doing right now. Bring her support and bring Your children to her also, ones who will know what to do because You will tell them!

Lord, have mercy! Speak as Brandon lifts his head and looks up to You.

Hi Brandon! The Holy Spirit taught me that what I commit unto God is resolved by God. I merely ask Daddy to resolve all to His satisfaction and glory. Then He adds, be patient in waiting! And then--
I lean heavily on Him! And praise Him in it all, for this is His will, that we praise Him in all things!

God bless you. Let His sweet Presence comfort you - in all your affliction He is afflicted. You are NEVER alone, He loves you dearly.

Hi Brandon,
How are you? Praying...
(Lord, hold Brandon.)
I AM! I have, and I will Brandon. Rest. I am hard at work, your job is to come to Me for comfort, turn to My children for support, and lift up your head! Accept help, even if it annoys you at first. There is help that you need to take even though, like medicine, it tastes bad. But you will improve and grow to like the help! You are a receiver of help. Let Me help your wife and your responsibilities. Turn over the helm... I love you!
