Jim and David are two men with two different stories, but both point to the same faithful God. One has experienced the joy of a restored marriage. The other is still praying, waiting, and trusting for his marriage miracle to come.
In this episode, they share the ups, the downs, and the unexpected ways God has worked in their lives. Men, you’ll be challenged and inspired by their courage and faith, but women, don’t skip this one. You’ll gain powerful insight and encouragement for your stand as well.

Wow, that was great to hear the trying strong testimony of these two men. Thank you so much!
Oops! The word “trying,” below, was a typo. Should have been omitted. Sorry about that!
Thank you, men of God! To God be the glory! I bought the book Your Story Has a Villain—it’s excellent! I praise You, Lord, for these amazing men! I’ve been standing for my marriage for 4 years now. I will never stop standing with Jesus for the salvation of my husband and children. Yes, the enemy will do anything to get the stander from standing. With me, his attacks always come from problems with my children or joblessness, but God, I just finished a 3-day fast and praying. He spoke to me through the entire book of Ezekiel, then soon after my end of fasting and praying, he attacked me with problems from my teenage daughter, but God, again, He spoke to me through Ezekiel, ensuring me justice for my daughter, my family, and marriage so again I say to God be the glory!
“When Christ walks away from His bride, is the day I will stop standing for my bride”. WOW! Mic drop
We moved from California to North Carolina we weren’t living here very long before my husband started his 7 year downward spiral, then he divorced me. Thank you for sharing your testimonies. I pray one day I’ll be able to share ours.
I know I’m late listening to this podcast, but I’m trying to catch up on all the ones I haven’t heard. Both men’s testimony was inspiring. I can relate to Jim. I started my stand 14 years ago and it’s nice to hear that somebody is standing as long as I have been. Like Jim, I still consider myself married and still refer to myself as married. I have two children, my son who has recently become a Christian & he understands where I’m coming from now, whereas my daughter still doesn’t understand or support me. Thank you so much for this podcast. I really needed to hear that. I’m not the only one out there.
It’s been 4 1/2 years since my wife announced she wanted a divorce, and 3 year being divorced. However I have remained steadfast in standing and believing for the restoration of our marriage. I made a Vow-Convenant with GOD that I want my marriage, I’m fighting for our marriage, and the restoration of my marriage will be a testimony of the impossible of GOD’s intercession in saving and restoring my marriage. There are circumstances that would lead me to break the Vow-Covenant i made with GOD, but I’ve chose to endure the hardship with Unconditional Love and Unwavering Resolve to know JESUS is Victorious in all his battle and this is a battle through JESUS CHRIST I Will Win!
Please lift my (Ex-Wife and Marriage Restoration) all marriages in prayer that facing separation and divorce.
Thank you for sharing your story. We are praying for a miracle in your marriage!
