We join you in standing in awe of how God is moving in your life, and we lift our voices together in prayer for you, your ex-girlfriend, and her brother. It is clear that the Lord is doing a profound work, and we must first address something vital before we proceed: the name by which all things are made possible. You did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your request, and yet it is only through Him that we have access to the Father, salvation, and the power to intercede. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). It is in Jesus’ name alone that we pray, that hearts are transformed, and that God’s will is accomplished. If you have not yet placed your full trust in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior—believing that He died for your sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day—we urge you to do so now. *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9, WEB). This is the foundation of all we ask and all we hope for.
Now, let us address the matters of your heart with truth and love. We rejoice that the priest recognized the hand of God in your life, and we pray that this confirmation strengthens your faith. However, we must also speak clearly about the relationship you mentioned. Scripture is unmistakable about the sanctity of marriage and the boundaries God has set for relationships. You referred to your "ex-girlfriend," and while we understand the depth of care you have for her, we must remind you that romantic relationships outside of marriage—especially between believers and unbelievers—are not aligned with God’s design. *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). If this relationship was or is physical in any way outside of marriage, we must call it what Scripture calls it: fornication, which is a sin against God and against your own body (1 Corinthians 6:18). Repentance and turning away from such sin is essential, for *"the body is... for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13, WEB). We urge you to examine your heart and this relationship in light of God’s Word. If marriage was not the godly goal from the beginning, then the relationship was not honoring to Him. Even now, your prayers for her salvation must be rooted in a commitment to holiness, trusting that God’s will—for both of you—is perfect, even if it means surrendering your own desires.
As for the prophecy you mentioned, we must approach it with discernment. *"Don’t quench the Spirit. Don’t despise prophecies. But test all things, and hold firmly that which is good"* (1 Thessalonians 5:19-21, WEB). If what you’ve received aligns with Scripture and bears the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)—then hold fast to it. But be cautious of anything that exalts personal revelation above the written Word of God or that leads you into emotional or spiritual dependence on signs rather than on Christ Himself. *"To the law and to the testimony! If they don’t speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them"* (Isaiah 8:20, WEB). The "desert season" you’re in may very well be a time of refining, where God is stripping away distractions so that you might cling more tightly to Him. But beware of the enemy’s attempts to use prophecy—or the memory of a past relationship—to keep you in bondage to uncertainty or longing. Your focus must remain on Jesus, the author and finisher of your faith (Hebrews 12:2).
Let us pray now with boldness and clarity:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You for the ways You are moving in this brother’s life, confirming Your presence and Your plans. Lord, we ask that You guard his heart and mind in Christ Jesus, that he would not be led astray by emotion, nostalgia, or any word that does not align with Your perfect Word. Give him discernment to test all things and wisdom to walk in obedience, even when the path is narrow and the waiting is hard. Father, we lift up his ex-girlfriend to You. Soften her heart to receive the truth of the Gospel. Break every chain of sin, deception, and hardness that keeps her from surrendering to You. Raise up godly influences in her life—especially her brother—and grant him boldness, grace, and wisdom as he ministers to her. May she encounter You in a way that leaves no room for doubt, that she would repent and place her faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. Lord, we also pray for this brother’s purity and strength. If there has been sin in this relationship, convict him deeply and lead him to repentance. Restore him, Father, and set his feet on the path of righteousness. Fill him with Your Spirit, that he might walk in patience, gratitude, and unwavering faith as he waits on Your promises. Remind him that Your timing is perfect, Your ways are higher, and Your love is better than life itself. Bind the enemy from bringing confusion, temptation, or discouragement. Let this season be one of deepening trust in You, not in prophecies or past relationships, but in the unchanging character of God. We ask all this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Brother, we encourage you to press into Scripture daily, to surround yourself with believers who will speak truth into your life, and to surrender every desire—even the desire for this woman’s salvation—to the Lord. *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this"* (Psalm 37:4-5, WEB). His will is good, and His plans for you are for your ultimate joy and His glory. Walk in obedience, and you will see His faithfulness unfold. We are standing with you in prayer.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
