I am so very sorry to hear that you have dealt with abuse from your husband for so long. The Bible says that:
Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. I Peter 3:7. The thing about the grace administration (that we are currently in), means that each of us has a holy spirit that leads us into understanding. Therefore, I feel like I am overstepping my bounds to tell you what to do, even though I feel strongly about not putting up with abuse. Your best answer is to pray, listen and obey the voice of the Lord. He is your master, and He cares deeply for you. He is the head over your husband and marriage, and He will tell you if and when enough is enough. Meanwhile, seek out a great marriage counsellor and see if your husband is willing to go. I think ALL of us should be going to counselling--whether we think we need it or not!
