And the Lord said unto Samuel, How long wilt thou mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel? fill thine horn with oil, and go, I will send thee to Jesse the Bethlehemite: for I have provided me a king among his sons.
1 Samuel 16:1 KJV
This was the exact Bible verse that I was reminded of after I'd left my marriage. Things were weird but I knew I was doing what I needed to do for my life. Not only that, I began to feel a peace that I had not felt in years. People will argue that God will not tell you to leave your marriage. That's completely opinion. However, the fact is that whomever God has put together, no one can separate them (Mark 10:9).
Do what you need to for you. God will lead you, if you ask Him to do so. I will never encourage a woman to leave or divorce her spouse, but I will never condone that she stay in a violent situation in which God did not place her in.
Years later, I know my decision was the right one and even more confident that God will send me into my ordained marital destiny.
