How to Live with an Unbelieving Spouse

Take our 31-day marriage prayer challenge today and join the 1000's of couples who have done it. shop.marriageaftergod.com/pro...
--
Being unequally yoked in marriage means that one spouse is walking in obedience to God and the other is not. This can become a source of contention that amplifies other marriage issues that can arise even in relationships when both spouses are both walking with God. This can be a painful situation to experience, but for anyone in this position there is hope and it starts with the spouse who knows God. The most important thing in a marriage with a spouse who doesn’t know God or isn’t obeying Him, is Salvation! The desire to see that spouse come to know and love God is more important than happily ever after!
In this week’s episode of Marriage After God we discuss some important details about being unequally yoked in marriage. We specifically give 4 Biblical tips for those who are married to a non-believer or a spouse who claims to be Christian but does not obey God’s Word and the power that person has to influence the other spouse’s life!
1. Get the right perspective. (3:02)
2. Don’t leave. (11:20)
3. Pray for them and yourself. (15:55)
4. Be an example. (21:42)
Scriptures we share include:
1 Corinthians 7:12-16 at (12:04)
1 Peter 3:1-2 at (23:07)
1 Peter 3:7 at (25:35)

My husband doesn't believe... I pray for him and he likes it...he says "it's very nice", little by little ...God can do everything.

[@newtonmoon]

Yes I somewhat agree. However, it needs to come from the person. It needs to be on a deep level. In my family we have a couple. She is from a religious upbringing and background, he was not. He converted for her to Christianity so she would be able to marry him. He unfortunately passed away too early but there is no cross anywhere on the tombstone. A belief needs to be nurtured.

[@katedeo5840]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I was walking around so lost in this world. 2 years ago. I walked into a church and felt the pastor was directly speaking to me. My marriage was failing and I was so lost. I have been non stop going to church, praying and joined a small group. My husband says it's not his thing. My prayer is for his salvation daily. The closer I get to God the more bad things are thrown at me. I won't stop believing and growing closer to my savior. Last night I finally got bold enough and asked my husband if I could pray over our marriage. He said yes. After praying he said that was nice, I pray for my endurance and strength to get through the stuff being thrown at our marriage. I pray my husband wont give up on our marriage. This video gives me so much hope.

[@CorrinaRoseWrites]

I grew up watching this in my parents, my mom was on fire for Jesus and my dad was lukewarm in his walk, and I watched how much my mom suffered praying for my dad to be saved. She still prays 30 years later. Now I am married and in the same situation with my husband, I recently went through a dark period and became born again. My husband doesn't object when I pray out loud with our two girls, but I find myself being wary of how much I talk about and bring up Jesus. It's a really hard balance to know when my husband is being receptive to me bringing up the Word and when to just pray and let God work in his heart.

[@beccahayden1793]

Maybe the reason God gave you the parents he did was so that you could witness your mothers faith in Him and her desire to pray for her husband, knowing you’d need the same strength! I’ll keep you in my prayers!!💕

[@deborahwright1454]

I can attest to this as well. All those years ago I thought my mom was crazy for constantly praying for my dad. Well...she wasn't it took about 20 something years but it happened. My Dad gave his life to Christ and because my mom didn't give up now he is rejoicing in Heaven. Only if I can get my mom's perseverance and dedication for my husband's salvation.

[@rachelglasier9677]

I am in a similar situation, my husband accepts my faith and is very supportive of it, for me, but wants nothing to do with it himself. I am scared to "preach" to him because frankly I know that did more harm than good with me for many years of my sister preaching the gospel to me. I had a serious problem with God before Jesus saved me. I don't want to turn my husband's heart from Jesus by being a self-righteous pain in the backside. I just know that God did not place me in this marriage for me to be saved and my husband go to Hell. Whatever happens it won't be anything I say, it'll be the Holy Spirit doing the ministering. All I have to do is walk the walk and not be afraid of doing the wrong thing because God can turn anything to the good of those who love him. I am glad I wrote this, I think this was just the pep talk I myself needed tonight.

[@Siri-qg8xv]

This was so helpful! Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. My spouse was a believer who after six years of marriage left the things of God. That was four years ago & it has been the most challenging & difficult time in our marriage but by the grace of God a month ago the results of much fasting & prayer were seen! My husband of his own requested that our pastor disciple him & help him get back on track. We have a long road but I have faith that God will finish the work that was started 12 years ago in my husband’s heart. Never give up! Persevere. The Lord is good to those who take refuge in Him.

[@Dmalone329]

Me too. I share the same experience. I would like to know, since this type of treatment is a form of abuse, how to still walk in love while believing in restoration for my marriage, yet not enable poor emotional treatment at the same time. Is that possible? I love my husband and his culture and upbringing never showed him how to love His wife God's way. I'm praying for his heart and I want to be an example of God's perfect love to him. I also just don't want my attempts to be in vain.

I understand how you feel. Just keep operating in your office as a wife. Keep praying for him, only God has the power to change people. I believe he'll be better

[@helenbekind8486]

It’s not your husband it’s Satan using your husband to discourage you. If your husband says something against you that is true...thank him for pointing it out so you can repent and allow Jesus to change you. If what he says is not true, then say get behind me satan! 😂 The enemy wants to cause conflict. Your husbands antichrist spirit (rebellion, pride, strife) will not allow him to seek truth from Gods word to correct him edify him or encourage him. He needs Jesus! You already have Jesus so you are stronger than he is. You have self control from the Holy Spirit to not react to any of fiery darts the enemy uses him to throw at you. He is broken. You are restored. Pray for him and surrender your marriage to God.

God definitely lead me here early this morning.. I was and still am a bit weary from the issues with my marriage. God showed me yesterday a side of my husband that hurt me so much. God allowed me to see this .. God allowed me to feel the uncomfortableness of a situation I was in too push me to pray for him. I asked God months ago to give me a burden for my unbelieving spouse.. because I had been passive about his salvation. He has such a disdain for Christianity and anything involving God.. that I just halfhearted excepted his fate. Terrible position to be in.. So I praise God for this morning because after all the hurt and pain I felt.. bitterness..rage.. I cried out to God I don’t want to feel this way!!! He lead me to repentance for doing things my way and tearfully sought him for help.. and it lead me to this video! God is so good..merciful.. just amazing. God allowed me to feel all the uncomfortableness for a reason! His ways are not our ways. He is going to get glory either way.. but he is using me as the wife to pray for my husband and watch God do a great work ! Please keep the Gwynn family in prayer 🙏🏾

I didn't want to take anything away from this posting, just adding sometimes you don't have , "normal " problems like someone doesn't pick up their clothes. Sometimes, it's a from the pit of hell mutitude of issues that take special counsel and covering. If that's you, don't get frustrated or feel misunderstood, just get praying and God will send you folks who can handle extreme situations. Not everyone can. That's okay.

Thanks for this message. I have been struggling with this. My husband has never believed. I have been in church my whole life but had gotten away from it for many years got into an addiction. I decided to rededicate my life to God & was delivered from my addiction! Praise God!! The problem is my husband seems almost jealous of my relationship with God and often threatens I better not change too much. This is not the woman he got with he says and even mocks God calling Him “my Little buddy”!!! This is hurting our relationship and I am struggling to know what to do. I try to be an example of Christ but I definitely do not because I get angry and then we fight! Please pray for God to give me direction in this matter. Thanks

[@lowerymom]

Totally Tonya Vlogs very similar situation with me. May I suggest Total Forgiveness, a book by RT Kendall. I have such love and peace for him, totally forgive all so that all our sins can be forgiven. I feel set free even though he hasn’t changed. On a side note, after much prayer about our marriage woes, I opened the Bible and there in Isaiah 54 it says, « I will be your husband. ». God is our husband- our provider and protector. So even if our earthly husband won’t step up, our heavenly husband has got us secure in his righteous right hand. Keep forgiving, keep loving and keep praying! Obey God in all things and He will bless you with peace and joy.

That’s a strategy to overcome all negativity and look at the weaker person as spiritually blind and pray effectively. You are precious to God and your identity is secure in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour

I understand you. I am Christian and i married my wife and thought she was a believer for years, until her actions and ways started to reveal the truth. That she even herself thought she was a Christian but really she didnt know Christ. It does cause major problems in life. When somone has not read the Bible and does not know God. It can take its toll. To me there are only two roads to take. Either convert them to the truth, which can take years or there may have to be a seperation or division.

My wife is the opposite of what the Bible says a wife should be. Shes contentious, Shes yells and trys to usurp authority over me constantly and she just does not understand that without understanding Gods order and following it then their will always be problems and arguing and the house will be divided and fall. Then theres the other issue that anybody that does not know Jesus Christ is subject to the devil by default. So now i also have experienced attacks from Satan through my wife because she doesnt have the truth. It gets deep and its an extrememly hard road. Please pray for me and my wife to know the truth because i am at the verge of giving up. We have veen together for 9 years and married for 7.

My husband appears to be running and angry with God. He no longer attends church, but allows worship in the home and will listen. However over 5 years since he has attended church. We have a lot of interference in our marriage and his mother and family don’t respect boundaries or the change that come with marriage. My husband has not completed the leave and cleave phase. They encourage him to divorce and to avoid the pressures, he wants out instead of standing up to family and friends. Yes, when your spouse is not walking or doesn’t know the Lord, heartbreak is sure to come. I’ve become numb and many times ready to give up. I hang on by a thread.

We are both believers but he is in a state where his heart is getting cold because of the circumstances in his life. He is seeking God but is struggling. There’s nothing that I can do about it but just back him up with prayers and encouragements. It’s not my job to change his heart, but God’s. Thanks for sharing this video!

Wow I needed this thank u so much . I feel so discouraged when ppl tell me is not going to workout that God has a better man I can glorify God with . This is so goood thank u🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[@denisejackson776]

You tell them God HATES divorce,and we are bound to our spouses until death do us part,We are not to remarry if your spouse is still living and breathing,I know it's HARD ,trust me I've been through the wringer with my husband,BUT I TRUST God,He knew there wld be troubles and extreme difficulties in marriage,suit up sister,you gonna have to battle for your marriage/ family,God is with you,He wants your spouse saved and delivered even more than you! Pray for strength,God bless you

[@chantillylacey177]

@@denisejackson776 he doesn't like divorce yes but there are times that he allows it without holding it against us. If a partner is being unfaithful then yes , or in my case with my first husband he was very abusive to me and our kids to the point of almost killing us , that is also something he sees okay with leaving your spouse for. He would never want you in a situation where your life is at risk. I've also remarried and a lot of people see things differently on remarrying after a divorce but when you know it's God led you know it's right .

I really feel god bought me to this video. So needed to hear this. I'm going to keep watching this. Im very newly saved so a huge change for my partner... Corinthians verse was a wow for me. Praise God for saving me and bringing me here. I so want to be an example and show the power of god. He's atheist so has been very difficult. I'm working not only on my salvation but my whole family. 🙏🙏

Thank you for making this video. I keep on asking for the guidance of the Lord related to this matter. I felt blessed by your discussion that we can still Honor God without breaking the marriage. It might be hard, since this is the life we chose, but thru prayers and daily devotions, praying we can surpass the conflicts and disagreements.

Im seeing him be given over to a reprobate mind. My stomach is in knots. Hes making it so hard to just focus on Jesus. Hes making so many obstacles. Lord have mercy

[@mslikenootha]

This is sooooo good because my husband is a believer but not working the word and as a result at times it caused me to act not cool towards him or not content. We really got into it over the weekend and after me fasting and praying and praying trying to figure 1 Corinthians 6:12 out this video has really given revelation to my behavior for him being as he is so thank you for this video I appreciate it 🧘🏽‍♀️🙏🏾💫

[@erika.m.peralta]

So grateful I ran into this video. I have been going through it with my husband. To the point where I am nearly losing hope. What stood out here was, the piece on “Perspective”. I have been so focused on my own perspective that I really did not think about God’s perspective. I have been focused on being hurt and wanting my husband to love me the way God intended him to love me. The only thing that has kept me going is that I see my husband through the lens of Christ. However, it was almost as if I gave myself limitations. I knew his salvation is what is most important, but I never thought of it being more important than our marriage. Another thing that stood out here was God wanting my holiness VS my happiness. I have so much to work on. I have let my situation and how my husband treats me harden my heart. Thank you so much for sharing this.

[@thecandidfoodie]

You both have no idea how much of a help this is to all women dealing with a situation as such including me . Thankyou. God bless u both . Also it would be really helpful if you could help us on how to pray for an unbelieving spouse . Thanks once again .. from the bottom of my heart ..

[@Unusualxcatt]

Wow the connection marriage and the gospel....I don't think I've thought of it that way so deeply and it really gives me hope that I've been needing. My spouse he's a nonbeliever who has a addiction to porn and alcohol, I know Jesus is all he needs. Thank you for this video. I know I just need to let God do his work.

[@displayname6836]

Wow. I really needed to hear this. It has been a struggle in my life and in my faith. I have been praying for God to soften my heart again after losing my way. I have been needing strength to hold us both up. God gave me clarity and revealed to me that it’s not the fact that my husband will never change because of what I may believe but the fact that I need to trust in God by his word that He can change his heart because he is true. Then right after I heard that @28:00 your wife asked what would you say to those wife or husbands who have an unbelieving spouse and your response was exactly what God just revealed to me. He called me to share this with you. So many emotions right now. Please pray for me, to be able to have the strength to continue an intimate relationship with God and show my husband how the gospel changed me for the better..

[@taniawilliams9246]

Testimony: I kept passing this video & I was not interested in watching it. Well it kept popping up on the top as a suggestion. So, I decided to watch it. God is so good. He know exactly what we need & gives it to us at his appropriate time. I'm in a Toxic Relationship. I left the Toxic Environment by moving with my Mom. I still live at my House too because my Husband is a Long haul Truck Driver so, I live at my Mom's & I live at our house when his on the Road. I left the Toxic Relationship but I have not left my Husband. He has a Personality Disorder maybe Narcissist or Bipolar. He has not being diagnosed because he refuses to go get help. His smokes weed that helps regulate his emotions & mood, he watches pornagraphy, his had affairs, his verbally abusive & at times has been physically abusive. I'm not perfect & I too have fall short. I had to create a space away physically because of the abuse. I had to set those boundaries. I go visit him & at times stay with him but if it's starts going left & his getting aggressive, I walkway & leave. I'm praying for him asking God to remove that heart of stone, fasting, being a friend to him but nothing, no change. So, at times I wonder if I should let go, quit & through in the towel. But, then the enemy would win. And,I remember how Jesus lives the 99 and goes after the 1 that got out & is lost. That's my Husband, I remember God is out trying to bring him back. I remember my Husband is God's Son, his Sheep. And, this is a War I'm part of. Not, a War against my Husband but again the Principalities of the Evil one. It's a War for My Husband's Freedom & Soul. That's why, I left the Battlefield of the Toxic Relationship but I have not Left my Husband because his Freedom is the most important thing. Thank you so much for this video. I really needed to hear that, to stay in. To ask God for Endurance. Because, Im tired & at times I tell myself " What are you doing Tania, His not going to change. It might be the Enemy telling me that but I definitely entertain that thought. But, God is so good, he then gives me this Wonderful video you guys put together and he helps me remember to stay in, keep enduring, keep fighting on your knees for your Husband's Freedom. Thank you so much. Sorry for the long comment just wanted to share how God is so good.

I never really understood what “unequally yoked” meant, I am sure living in the middle of the yoke now. My husband gave me hope when we were dating that he was very interested in having a relationship with God. Now 2 years later, I find myself regretting and feeling broken as my husband belittles, mocks, contradicts and hides the fact of his porn obsession. I feel robbed since he treats me different and disrespectfully. My husband doesn’t care that he has crushed my heart. I have brought my feelings and heart him but he just makes a mockery of what I am trying to express. I feel so ugly and unwanted. I have never withheld my love from him, physically or emotionally. I serve him and take care of him willing and lovingly but he doesn’t want to treat me the way I need to be treated. My heart is crushed, frustrated and need help to know what to do. I will take this study ..... and pray for guidance.

Me and my husband to be have been together for over 3 years we have a son and I became a Christian a few months ago and hes not Christian. We're about to be married in one week. I have such great anxiety about this very topic. I've been praying for peace, by today it's overwhelming, I had a mini panic attack while making my wedding cake, I just froze there in my kitchen and it became hard to breathe. Someone please pray for me.

[@ela8826]

Praying for you. I truely believe that God has put you in a position to be a personal witness, to be a pilar of salt in your family and a light illuminating God's love. God will use you to reach your family. Have faith, be a good example, show how amazing it is to experience God's love, and pray pray pray. Keep God close wkth everything you've got. Its all part of His plan.

This is really encouraging to me. I am the believer in my marriage. My husband has walked away from God. I'm honestly having a hard time praying for my husband. After four years of seeing no change, it is hard. I don't want to leave, but my family is pressuring me too. It's exhausting to stand strong. I needed to watch this today. Thank you for making this video. Please pray for us, if you feel led too. Truly, I'm struggling but I love my husband so much.

[@lianabecca4048]

You are not alone sister, i have been going through the same as yourself, and i totally understand how hard it is for you to go on believing and standing strong in faith, and praying for him etc, im also going through this as well., and its quite heartbreaking...but what else can we do, except pray and hope in His unfailing love... I pray for you, may the Lord Jesus strengthens you and comforts you in your distress, may He lifts you up in His Holy Spirit, and uphold you with His righteous right hand. May He wipe your tears and embrace you in His compassion, may He surround you with His peace and love

Thank you. Hearing ‘God cares for your spouse more than you do’ helps a lot. I think the bad thought was to focus on ‘too bad, you’ve married a nonbeliever, it’s your mistake and you can never fix it.’
