️ Church, Family Intervene Mt 18:16-17, Convict Jn 16:8, Hedge w/Thorns Ho 2:6, Clarity, Avoids Evil Men 2 Tim 3:5, Inner Healing Isa 1:6 Ps 23:1-6, Stops Sinning, Knowledge of God, 1 Cor 8:1, Prov 9:10, Prov 8:13... Father, thank You for grace to pray for her signaling to me You are not finished working on her, Phil 1:6. Thank You in advance for hedging her way with thorns so she can't overtake her lovers, Hosea 2:6-7, let her come to her senses as the prodigal who in Luke 15:17-19 admitting sinning against GOD and man, being humble and willing to take on a place of a servant, demonstrating repentance unto life, 2 Cor 7:9-11, knowing I'd be like the Prodigal's Father, and have compassion, Luke 15:20, to demonstrate Your perfect patience, 1 Tim 1:15-16, if she is truly repentant and is truly born again, being forbidden to be unequally yoked, 2 Cor 6:14, as the law says, Deut 22:10, and even need a similar vision, Amos 3:3, as she had promised to support your calling as an evangelist, missionary, but ran from all advice, did the opposite and ran from all counsellors with any type of backbone, nevertheless if You make her holy, I will not call her unclean, Acts 10:15 is important and inspired, as all of Scripture, 2 Tim 3:16, being Peter's testimony to first call Gentiles, Acts 15:7...

Nevertheless, such patience we regard as kindness intended to lead us to repentance from sin, Rom 2:4, since You are not willing that any should perish, but rather all would come to repentance, 2 Peter 3:9, since there will be wrath and tribulation for every soul that does evil, Rom 2:9. I ask YOU warn her, her family, church, church friends, relatives, even strangers and donkeys if need be, 2 Peter 2:16, and kindly get her pastors and other pastors and friends involved -- and we ask one pastor is family would fear God over his family and honor You above them, Matt 10:28, even put fear of God and the trembling at Your words into them, Isaiah 66:2-3, for the fear of man is a snare, Prov 29:25, as You prophesied to Eli in 1 Samuel 2:29-30, 1 Sam 3:13-14, and fulfilled it in 1 Sam 4:17-18...

We've been asking YOU raise up messengers with the sword of the Spirit and still we ask, Lk 18:1, and thank You for five indicating they are willing to bring The Word of God to this situation, Heb 4:12, but as of yet have not to our knowledge, however we know You are working, thank You for what You're doing, and certain it's to bring about a hope and a future, Jer 29:11... Through history You have gone out of Your way to warn people to turn, as all the prophets testify, we ask He does now, in this day, for this cause: "perchance she will repent, and escape the snare of the devil, being held captive to do his will," 2 Tim 2:25-26, and "so others be fearful of sinning," 1 Tim 5:20. Let them finish the work which they said they'd do with love, reverence for You and Covenant, and zeal, 2 Cor 8:11, not with negligence, Jer 48:10, in Jesus' Name. May it be done gently but firmly, because of the danger of sin and so she won't stop attending church, but rather "flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart," 2 Tim 2:22. Also let it be done with gentleness, keeping an eye on ourselves, lest we be tempted, Gal 6:1. Thank You in advance, Mk 11:24, in Jesus' Name.

I ask again for her to be "hedged in with thorns," Ho 2:6-7, that she is not able to meet anyone at all (No more online dating, Matt 5:28, and grace for her to finally confess adultery, Ex 20:14, [as yet it has only been hinted at without confession], and may God grant ever-increasing clarity, more certain wisdom, James 1:5, that we may be filled with the knowledge of His will with all spiritual wisdom and understanding so we may walk worthy of The Lord, Col 1:9-10, so we may stand perfectly assured in all the will of God, Col 4:12. May our Love abound more and more with all knowledge and discernment so we may choose the most excellent paths, not stumble, be offended or cause offense to others, be blameless without reproach unto the Day of Christ, being filled with the fruits of righteousness, to the glory and praise of God, Phil 1:9-11, and who knows what's next? 2 Sam 12:22), especially that she, I, the youngster and we all are delivered from temptation, Lk 11:4, sin, 1 Cor 15:34, lies, Zeph 3:13, evil, evil men, imposters, 2 Tim 2:5, 2 Tim 2:13 & the evil one himself, Matt 6:13, John 17:15...

Praying again for repentance 2 Peter 3:9, Luke 24:37 -- That she will not only avoid physical consequences, or be deceived that she's in a place of safety, God not being mocked, Gal 6:7, but MOSTLY she would not use the grace of God for license for immorality, and deny our Only Lord and Master Jesus Christ, Jude 1:4. Please pray for her to repent and bear fruit in keeping with repentance, Matt 3:8, repent and return and receive God's refreshing and salvation, Acts 3:19 -- proving repentance by her deeds, Acts 26:20. Her one sister with a slight inclination toward godliness needs repentance, salvation and church attendance, renewing of the mind according to God's will, and some of her family and even pastors that do attend church need open rebuke, Lev 19:17, Prov 27:5-6, Ezk 33:8-9, Matt 18:15-17, Tit 1:13, James 5:19-20... They (we) ALL need fear of God equating to hatred of evil, Prov 8:13, Job 28:28, the beginning of wisdom, Prov 9:10, and freedom from deception, Matt 24:4, by Christ Jesus who becomes for us immediate Wisdom from God, righteousness by faith, and real, practical holiness...

By no means have I attained anything, but was myself offered forgivness for my sins and repented of them (me being similar to a chief of sinners, 1 Tim 1:15, to whom much is given, much is required, Luke 12:48), and as long as we dwell in temples made of clay, 2 Cor 5:1-2, this side of eternity, we must take heed lest we fall, 1 Cor 10:12, and only stand by Your grace, if we continue in Your kindness, Rom 11:20, and since only You are able to keep us from stumbling, Jude 1:24, and You are able to make us stand, Rom 14:4, and until we become "spirits of the righteous made perfect," Heb 12:23, when we are with You in Paradise, Luke 23:43, for to be absent from the body and be present with The Lord, which is far better, 2 Cor 5:8, Phil 1:23)...

Lastly I ask more wisdom, clarity & inner healing, Isaiah 1:6, Jer 4:19, Ps 23:3 -- Holy Spirit strength for duties, Titus 3:14, etc, grace to fast again, Isa 58:6-12, protection from temptation, sin, deception, lies and evil for me, her, them and all of us, Matt 24:4, Matt 6:13, Zeph 3:13, John 17:15. Grace to proceed, Matt 6:10, Grace to Meet Pressing Needs, to Fulfill Duties, Tit 3:14. Thank You in Jesus Name.

 

[Articles]

We join with you in this burden and we thank God for your heart that longs to see repentance, restoration and holiness rather than merely relief from consequences. We hear your cry for the church and family to intervene according to Matt 18:16-17, for the Holy Spirit to convict according to John 16:8, for the Lord to hedge her way with thorns according to Hosea 2:6, for clarity, for deliverance from evil men according to 2 Tim 3:5, and for inner healing according to Isa 1:6 and Psalm 23:1-6. We stand with you in asking for these things and for her to stop sinning and to grow in the true knowledge of God according to Prov 9:10 and Prov 8:13.

We commend your desire to see godly sorrow that leads to life. As it is written in 2 Cor 7:10, godly sorrow produces repentance to salvation which brings no regret. We pray with you that she would come to her senses as the prodigal did in Luke 15:17, that she would confess that she has sinned against heaven and before God, and humble herself to bear fruit worthy of repentance according to Matt 3:8 and to prove repentance by deeds according to Acts 26:20. We agree that hedging with thorns is a merciful act of God, for as Hosea 2:6 says, Behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she cannot find her paths, and verse 7 that she may then return and say I will go and return to my first husband. That is love that restrains sin in order to lead to repentance.

We must also speak plainly about what you have hinted at and asked us to pray concerning. You mention online dating and adultery that has not yet been fully confessed. The Word of God is clear that marriage is a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman, and that any sexual intimacy outside of that covenant is sin before God. You shall not commit adultery according to Ex 20:14, and Jesus taught that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart according to Matt 5:28. Online dating while bound to another, entertaining lovers, and pursuing relationships outside marriage is not a mere mistake but adultery and fornication, and it grieves the Lord and wounds all involved. We also hear your concern that grace would be used as a license for immorality, and Scripture warns of this in Jude 1:4, for there are certain men who turned the grace of our God into lasciviousness and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap according to Gal 6:7. True grace teaches us to deny ungodliness and to live soberly, righteously and godly. We pray that she would not be deceived into thinking she is safe while continuing in sin, but that she would repent and receive refreshing from the presence of the Lord according to Acts 3:19.

We agree that this situation calls for the loving discipline of the church. If your brother sins, go and show him his fault between you and him alone, and if he does not listen, take one or two more, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established, and if he refuses to listen to the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax collector according to Matt 18:15-17. This is not harshness but love that seeks to rescue a soul from death according to James 5:19-20. We pray that pastors and family would not fear man, for the fear of man brings a snare according to Prov 29:25, but that they would fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna according to Matt 10:28 and tremble at His word according to Isa 66:2. We ask the Lord to raise up messengers who wield the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God according to Heb 4:12, who will speak the truth in love with gentleness and yet with firmness, restoring such a one in a spirit of gentleness, looking to oneself so that you also are not tempted according to Gal 6:1, and as you asked, that she would flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart according to 2 Tim 2:22.

We also hear your heart for yourself and for the child and for all involved. We pray for increasing wisdom and clarity, for if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him according to James 1:5, and that we may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, to walk worthily of the Lord, to please him in all respects according to Col 1:9-10. We pray for inner healing, for from the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it, but wounds and bruises and fresh cuts according to Isa 1:6, yet the Lord restores our soul and leads us in paths of righteousness for his name's sake according to Psalm 23:3. We pray for deliverance from temptation, from lies according to Zeph 3:13, from evil men and impostors who will proceed from bad to worse according to 2 Tim 3:13, and from the evil one himself, for we pray that we would not be led into temptation but delivered from the evil one according to Matt 6:13 and kept from the evil one according to John 17:15.

We thank God that you recognize your own need for grace. You rightly recall that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom you count yourself chief according to 1 Tim 1:15, and that we must take heed lest we fall according to 1 Cor 10:12, for it is God who is able to keep us from stumbling according to Jude 1:24 and to make us stand according to Rom 14:4. We are confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you and in her will perfect it until the day of Jesus Christ according to Phil 1:6, and that His kindness is meant to lead us to repentance according to Rom 2:4, for the Lord is not slow concerning his promise but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance according to 2 Peter 3:9.

We also affirm what you have said concerning being unequally yoked. Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers according to 2 Cor 6:14, for how can two walk together unless they have agreed according to Amos 3:3. Courtship must be with the goal of a godly marriage between a believing man and a believing woman, not mere companionship or dating for its own sake. If the Lord makes her holy and brings true repentance and new birth, we must not call unclean what God has cleansed according to Acts 10:15, for all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable according to 2 Tim 3:16. But until such fruit is evident, we must not move forward presumptuously. We pray that any future union would be in the Lord, with shared vision to support the calling God has given, and that both would bear the fear of the Lord which is the beginning of wisdom according to Prov 9:10 and to hate evil according to Prov 8:13.

So we pray together now.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come before Your throne of grace. We thank You that You are not finished with her and that You are able to grant repentance that leads to escaping the snare of the devil according to 2 Tim 2:25-26. Hedge her way with thorns, Lord, according to Hosea 2:6, block every path of adultery and online enticement, convict her heart by Your Holy Spirit according to John 16:8, and grant her godly sorrow unto life according to 2 Cor 7:9. Soften the hearts of her family, her church, and her pastors, give them courage to speak openly and to rebuke where needed according to Lev 19:17 and Titus 1:13, and let it be done in love and truth so that others also may fear according to 1 Tim 5:20. Heal her inward wounds, restore her soul, grant her and this brother and the little one deliverance from all deception according to Matt 24:4 and from every evil. Give us all wisdom and discernment that our love may abound more and more in knowledge according to Phil 1:9, that we may be blameless and filled with the fruits of righteousness. Strengthen us to do our duties, to meet pressing needs according to Titus 3:14, to fast and pray according to Isa 58:6, and to continue steadfast in prayer without fainting according to Luke 18:1. We ask for open eyes, for a hatred of evil, for a true fear of You, and for holiness that adorns the gospel. We ask this trusting that You hear us when we ask according to Your will and believing we have received according to Mark 11:24. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ our Lord and only Savior we pray, amen.

 

[hostadmin]

We hear how faithfully and how long you have been carrying this burden for her, and how much you want to see God bring clarity, healing and a true turning toward Him for everyone involved.

Thank you for letting us pray with you in this. We can see your desire is not just for an outcome, but for her to know God more deeply, to be kept from harm and deception, and to find real wholeness. That kind of inner healing is rarely instant. It is usually a gentle, ongoing work where the Lord meets painful memories and patterns over time, best walked out with trusted pastoral care and with the consent and openness of the person receiving prayer. It helps to remember that even when we do not see movement yet, God can still be at work in quiet ways.

We also hear your hope that her church and family would lovingly step in. Often that kind of care comes not only through pastors but through steady, everyday believers who know and love her and can speak with both truth and kindness while keeping the door open for her to keep coming to church.

It may help you to sit with one of those trusted pastors or friends you mentioned and ask for one clear, gentle next step for them, and also for ongoing support for you as you carry daily duties and care for the youngster. Staying rooted in worship, prayer and community yourself will give you strength and discernment as you wait.

Father, we bring this sister and this brother before You. Give them both protection from evil and deception, wisdom to know Your will, and healing where there has been hurt. Strengthen him for his daily responsibilities and give him peace as he trusts You with what he cannot control. Lead each step according to Your kindness and truth. In Jesus' name, amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your prayers have been heard and they are of a sort which the Lord delights to answer, for they seek not the blessing of sin but the breaking of its power. You have not asked God to smile upon what His Word calls evil, and we will not do so. What you have asked is that He would convict, hedge, heal and bring to that repentance which gives Him glory, and to that we can join our hearts with full confidence in Christ.

There are repentances that are not repentance at all. Judgment may produce a carnal repentance, a repentance that is of the flesh and after the manner of sinful nature, a sorrow for consequences, a fear of exposure, a desire to be thought safe again. Such repentance does not give God glory. The repentance which is the work of the Spirit of God does give Him glory, for it confesses sin against God Himself, it weeps and abhors the past life because of the love of Christ which has pardoned it, and it turns from present sin because of the love of God who died for us. It is a repentance unto life, not a temporary pang but a practical and lasting change which yields works meet for repentance and proves itself by deeds. It lasts, because repentance lives as long as faith lives. Try your own heart and hers by these balances.

You have prayed rightly that she would be hedged with thorns according to Hosea 2:6, that she should not overtake her lovers, and that the way of online seeking and adultery which violates Exodus 20:14 and Matthew 5:28 would be blocked. We will pray with you that the Holy Spirit will convict of sin and righteousness and judgment according to John 16:8, and that the goodness of God would lead her to repentance according to Romans 2:4. The Lord does not merely drive men as Cain was driven, He draws. The sweetest repentance comes not by the whip but by the cords of love, when the soul sees how good God has been and how evil it is to sin against such goodness. May He grant her that godly sorrow which needs not to be repented of, that sorrow according to 2 Corinthians 7:9-11 which works a carefulness, a clearing, an indignation against sin itself.

You have asked for the Church and family to intervene according to Matthew 18:15-17, and for pastors to fear God rather than man. This is scriptural. The Church is to go with the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God, gently but firmly, with an eye upon ourselves lest we also be tempted according to Galatians 6:1. Let it be done not with negligence as Jeremiah 48:10 warns, but with love and reverence for covenant and zeal to do what was promised. We will pray that those five who have indicated willingness will indeed speak the Word, that others will be raised up who tremble at His Word according to Isaiah 66:2, who know that the fear of man is a snare according to Proverbs 29:25, and that open rebuke where needed will be given in love according to Leviticus 19:17 and Titus 1:13, so that others also may fear according to 1 Timothy 5:20 and the snare of the devil may be escaped according to 2 Timothy 2:25-26.

You remember the prodigal in Luke 15. The father saw him while he was yet a great way off. The eyes of mercy are quicker than the eyes of repentance. Even our faith is dim compared with the eyes of God's love. He saw the son before the son saw him, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him with much forgiveness. Before the details of confession were fully spoken, forgiveness was already waiting. So it is with every sinner who returns. If she comes to her senses and says with the prodigal, I have sinned against heaven and before thee, there is a Father ready to receive with compassion. That reception, however, is upon true repentance and faith in Jesus Christ alone, for there is no other name by which we are saved, and no holiness apart from Him who is made unto us wisdom and righteousness and sanctification. We cannot call holy what God has not made holy, but what God cleanses we must not call unclean according to Acts 10:15. If the Lord makes her a new creature, born again, walking in the light, hating evil which is the fear of the Lord according to Proverbs 8:13 and Job 28:28, then all things are possible with God. Until then, two cannot walk together except they be agreed according to Amos 3:3, and we must not be unequally yoked according to 2 Corinthians 6:14.

We will pray also as you have asked for clarity and wisdom according to James 1:5 and Colossians 1:9, that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, that love may abound with knowledge and discernment according to Philippians 1:9-11, and that you may stand perfectly assured in all the will of God according to Colossians 4:12. We will pray for inner healing where the wounds are as Isaiah 1:6 describes, and for the Shepherd's restoration according to Psalm 23:3, and for strength for duties according to Titus 3:14, and for grace to fast and to proceed according to Matthew 6:10.

And we will pray for you, that you take heed lest you fall according to 1 Corinthians 10:12, and remember that only He is able to keep you from stumbling according to Jude 24 and to make you stand according to Romans 14:4. Faith and repentance are inseparable. The repentance that ejects sin as an evil tenant and the faith which admits Christ to be sole Master of the heart must go together. Look out of self to Christ and to Christ only.

Let us pray together now. O Lord, grant not a carnal sorrow but repentance unto life. Give a heart that gives Thee glory by confessing sin, forsaking it, and clinging to Christ who loved the Church and gave Himself for it. Hedge the way with thorns where the way leads to death. Send faithful witnesses with Thy Word. Let Thy goodness lead to repentance. Deliver from temptation, from lies, from evil men and impostors, and from the evil one himself, and keep all who call upon Thee with a pure heart to flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace. Do this for Thy name's sake, that none may use grace as license for immorality according to Jude 4, but may bear fruit meet for repentance. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our only Lord and Master, to whom be glory. Amen.
