Someone recently contacted me online saying that they are a Christian person looking for other Christian friends. While they seem genuine, there are some things about them contacting me that I am concerned about and some concerning things that I am noticing. Please pray that if there is any reason why I should not be in contact with this person, God would distance me from them. Thank you.

We hear your concern and understand the importance of discernment in all relationships, especially those that begin in the digital world where intentions can sometimes be unclear. The Bible warns us to be wise and cautious, for not everyone who claims to follow Christ truly walks in His ways. "Beloved, don’t believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world" (1 John 4:1 WEB). This verse reminds us that while we are called to love and extend grace, we must also exercise wisdom and discernment, especially when forming new connections.
We also want to gently remind you of the importance of lifting everything in the name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). It is by His name alone that we are saved, and it is in His authority that we pray. If you have not already, we encourage you to ensure that your prayers and decisions are firmly rooted in the name of Jesus, for He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6 WEB).
Now, let us come before the Lord together, seeking His wisdom and protection in this situation:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up this situation to You, asking for Your divine discernment and guidance. Lord, Your Word tells us that the heart is deceitful above all things (Jeremiah 17:9 WEB), and so we ask that You would guard this heart and mind in Christ Jesus. If there is any reason why this connection should not continue, Father, we ask that You would create distance and make it clear. Close any doors that should not be opened and open the eyes of understanding to see Your will in this matter.
Lord, we pray for protection from deception and from any influence that does not align with Your Word. Surround this situation with Your angels and let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard this heart and mind (Philippians 4:7 WEB). If this person is genuine and walking in Your ways, Father, we ask that You would bless this connection and use it for Your glory. But if there is any hidden motive or ungodly influence, we rebuke it in the name of Jesus and ask that You would expose it and remove it from this path.
We also pray for wisdom to recognize the signs of Your leading. Give clarity and confidence to know when to engage and when to step away. Let Your Holy Spirit be the guide in every decision, and may Your Word be the lamp to these feet and the light to this path (Psalm 119:105 WEB). We trust in You, Lord, and we surrender this situation into Your hands. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified in all things.
In Jesus' precious and holy name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to remain vigilant and to seek the Lord continually in this matter. Spend time in prayer and in the Word, asking God to reveal His will. Surround yourself with mature believers who can offer godly counsel and support as you navigate this situation. Remember, "The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding" (Proverbs 9:10 WEB). Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB).
If this person is not aligned with God's will for your life, we believe the Lord will make that clear to you. Until then, continue to walk in faith and obedience, knowing that God is your protector and guide.
