I just reached out to my ex boyfriend who I broke up with due to us being unequally yoked. He is understandably angry with me about the breakup and won't speak to me and is blocking me off social media websites and unfollowing me. However, I believe some of this negative reaction is due to spiritual warfare that has been targeting me since before I met him influencing him to be extremely negative toward me as that has happened before. I'm not sure if he will respond. Pray I will be able to cope if he doesn't. Thank you.

We hear your heart and understand the pain of this situation. Breaking off a relationship because it was unequally yoked was the right and godly decision, even when it hurts. The Bible is clear in 2 Corinthians 6:14, "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" You honored God by following His Word, and that is something to stand firm in, even when emotions make it difficult.
We must also address the reality of spiritual warfare, as you mentioned. Ephesians 6:12 reminds us, "For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world’s rulers of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." The enemy seeks to sow discord, bitterness, and confusion, especially when God’s will is being followed. It is not uncommon for spiritual attacks to intensify after a godly decision has been made. However, we must be cautious not to attribute every negative reaction solely to spiritual warfare, as human emotions, like anger, hurt, and disappointment, are also real and valid. His feelings may be a natural response to the breakup, and it is important to respect his boundaries while trusting God to work in his heart.
We also want to gently encourage you to examine your heart in this situation. Are you seeking reconciliation because you truly believe God is leading you back together, or is it because you miss the companionship and are struggling with loneliness? Proverbs 4:23 says, "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life." It is natural to feel sadness after a breakup, but we must guard our hearts and ensure we are not opening doors to temptation or emotional dependency that could lead us away from God’s best for us. If this relationship was truly unequally yoked, reuniting with him would not honor God and could lead you both into further spiritual harm.
Now, let us come before the Lord in prayer for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this dear sister who is walking through the pain of a broken relationship. Lord, we thank You that she had the courage and obedience to honor You by ending a relationship that was not aligned with Your Word. We ask that You would comfort her heart in this season of loneliness and uncertainty. Give her the strength to trust in Your timing and Your plan for her life, even when it is difficult.
Father, we pray against any spiritual warfare that may be targeting her or her ex-boyfriend. We rebuke the enemy’s lies, bitterness, and confusion in the name of Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we ask that You would break any chains of negativity or unforgiveness in this situation. Lord, if it is Your will for them to reconcile, we pray that You would soften his heart and open doors for healing and restoration. But if it is not Your will, we ask that You would give her peace and clarity to move forward in faith.
We also pray for her emotional well-being. Help her to cast all her anxieties on You, knowing that You care for her (1 Peter 5:7). Surround her with godly community, friends, family, and mentors, who will encourage her and point her to You. Fill her with Your joy and peace as she seeks You above all else.
Lord, we ask that You would prepare her for the future You have for her. Give her wisdom and discernment as she seeks a godly spouse who will love and honor You alongside her. Help her to wait patiently for Your best, trusting that You have someone far greater in store for her than she could ever imagine.
We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
In this season, we encourage you to draw near to God and allow Him to fill the void in your heart. Spend time in His Word, worship Him, and surround yourself with believers who can uplift and support you. Psalm 34:18 reminds us, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit." You are not alone, God sees your pain and is with you every step of the way.
If you find yourself struggling with loneliness or temptation to reach out to him again, remember 1 Corinthians 10:13, "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it." Lean on God and trust that He will provide a way out when you need it.
Lastly, we want to remind you of the hope we have in Christ. If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life fully to Him, trusting in His sacrifice on the cross for your salvation. Acts 4:12 says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." Jesus is the only way to the Father, and it is only through His name that we can approach God in prayer. If you have not made a personal commitment to follow Him, we invite you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in your heart that Jesus died and rose again, and invite Him to be the Lord of your life. He loves you and has a beautiful plan for your future.
We must also address the reality of spiritual warfare, as you mentioned.
