PRAYERS UNHINDERED & UNANSWERED

PRAYERS UNHINDERED
Husbands, live with your wife according to knowledge, treating her preciously as a weaker vessel, since you are heirs together of the grace of life; so that your prayers be not hindered (1 Peter 3:7).

PRAYERS UNANSWERED
Husbands, you keep coming and cover the altar of the LORD with tears, by weeping and crying, but He does not regard the offering anymore, or receive it with goodwill from your hand. Yet you ask why? Because the LORD is the witness between you and the wife of your youth, against whom you have dealt treacherously: yet is she your companion, and the wife of your covenant. And did He not make you one and this union remain in the spirit, that He might seek a godly offspring? Therefore take heed to your spirit, and let none deal unfaithfully against the wife of his youth (Malachi 2:13-15).
