My problem is spiritual, but I don’t know how to make my husband see what my pastor sees.
Before we got married, my husband and I made a decision. He had a son from a previous relationship, and the child’s mother was known to be very bitter and destructive. We agreed it would be best for his son to come live with us full-time, to create a stable home and cut the cord with all that negativity.

We did exactly that. It’s been five years now. Five years of a happy marriage in every way… except one. I have not been able to conceive.
We have tried everything. What medicine haven’t we taken? Which doctors haven’t we seen? We’ve been everywhere and done everything, but nothing has worked. As a last resort, my mother took me to her prophet.
After fasting and prayers, the prophet asked to see us together. In my husband’s presence, he told us, “What you are facing is a spiritual attack. The woman you had a child with is the reason your wife cannot conceive. She is operating through the child. No prayer will work until you send the boy back to his mother. Until he is gone, you should forget about having your own child.”
I thought we would come home and start making arrangements. Instead, my husband shook his head and told me the boy wasn’t going anywhere. He said, “No good God would suggest this, knowing the child is better off with us.”
I even suggested a compromise: “What if he just goes back to her until we have our own baby, and then he can return?” He refused. He told me the matter was closed. The child stays.
Now I feel stuck. I feel like my chance to become a mother is being blocked. I’m not getting any younger, and these are my most fertile years. My mother says I should leave the house to him and his son and come home. But how does that solve my problem? It just breaks my family apart.
She Would Introduce Me To Rich Men Who’ll Give Me Money
I want a resolution that doesn’t shatter us into pieces. I don’t hate that boy. I’ve been a good mother to him; he calls me ‘Mom’ and I love him. He is not the problem, but it seems I am suffering because of his connection to his mother.
What do you suggest I do? Do I follow my mother’s advice? Is there another way? I am truly lost.

They say God helps those who help themselves. If your husband wants to sit on his ass and not take any action on this problem, then Good Luck,
You going back to your parents house will leave room for your rival to destroy your marriage. All you have to do is tighten your prayer seat belt. Let your life be filled with prayer even when you achieve your goal. The evil one doesn’t rest and so must you. At this point you can’t rely on your husband. You have to do this on your own. When Jesus saw the time of his death was near he went and prayed alone.
Try going for a medical checkup. You might not know maybe you or ur husband have an underlying issue that may be the course of infertility too. If it turns out not to be when you take the tests, then you have to start praying fervently
Or your stepson just provided an easy target for the prophet. Your husband is completely right, there’s no way that a Good God would decide to punish your stepson for his mother’s actions or you for your kindness. If the so called prophet cannot pray to have your rival’s evil machinations thwarted without punishing an innocent child, then he should rest.
There are many infertile couples trusting God for a child. Most of them don’t have baby mamas that are wreaking vengeance in the background. Try a good fertility doctor instead of moving from prayer house to prayer house.
