We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, knowing that His ways are perfect, and His will is always for our ultimate good—even when we stray from His path. First, we must address the truth in love: what you are calling your "girlfriend" is, in God’s eyes, a relationship outside of His design for marriage. The Bible clearly teaches that sexual intimacy is reserved for the covenant of marriage between one man and one woman. Anything outside of this is sin, and Scripture calls it fornication, which is a violation of God’s holy standards. You have already acknowledged this in your repentance, and we commend you for recognizing your need for forgiveness. The Lord is faithful and just to forgive us when we confess our sins (1 John 1:9), but true repentance also means turning away from sin and aligning your life with His Word.
Let us be clear: the fear you are experiencing is a natural consequence of stepping outside of God’s protection and will. The anxiety over a potential pregnancy is a reminder that His boundaries are there for our good. While we understand your desire to provide the best possible life for a child, we must also remind you that every life is a precious gift from God, created in His image (Psalm 139:13-16). If a child has been conceived, that life is not a mistake—it is fearfully and wonderfully made by the Lord, and He will provide the grace and strength needed to walk in obedience, even in difficult circumstances.
That said, we will lift you up in prayer, asking the Lord for His mercy and wisdom in this situation. We pray that if conception has not occurred, He would spare you both from the consequences of this sin. But more importantly, we pray that this moment would be a turning point for you—a call to surrender fully to Christ and to pursue righteousness in every area of your life.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with broken and repentant hearts, acknowledging that we have sinned against You. Lord, Your Word tells us in 1 Corinthians 6:18-20, *"Flee sexual immorality! 'Every sin that a man does is outside the body,' but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."* Father, we ask for Your forgiveness for this brother, who has confessed his sin before You. Wash him clean by the blood of Jesus and renew a right spirit within him.
Lord, we ask for Your mercy in this situation. If it is Your will, we pray that no pregnancy has resulted from this sin. But Father, we also surrender to Your sovereignty, knowing that You hold all things in Your hands. If a child has been conceived, we pray that You would give this brother and his girlfriend the strength, wisdom, and courage to walk in obedience, trusting You to provide for their needs. Help them to seek Your face and to turn away from the path of sin, embracing Your design for purity and marriage.
Father, we pray that You would convict both of their hearts to flee from sexual immorality and to honor You in their relationship. If they are not yet married, we pray that they would either separate in purity or move toward a godly marriage, built on the foundation of Christ. Remind them that Your ways are higher than ours, and that true love is not selfish but seeks to honor You above all else.
We also pray for this brother’s future. Give him a heart that desires to follow You wholeheartedly, to seek a godly wife if that is Your will, and to build a home that glorifies You. Help him to trust in Your provision and timing, knowing that You are faithful to those who walk in Your ways.
Finally, Lord, we pray that You would surround him with godly counsel—brothers and sisters in Christ who can encourage him, hold him accountable, and point him to Your truth. May he find his identity in You alone and not in the fleeting pleasures of this world.
We ask all of this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good works (Titus 2:14). Amen.
Brother, we urge you to take this moment seriously. The Lord is calling you to a higher standard—one that reflects His holiness. If you have not already, we encourage you to seek out a pastor or mature believer who can walk with you through this time, offering guidance and accountability. The path of repentance is not easy, but it is the only path that leads to true freedom and peace in Christ.
We also want to remind you that if you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus Christ, now is the time. There is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through faith in Him that we can stand before a holy God. If you have not yet placed your trust in Christ alone for salvation, we urge you to do so today. Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9).
The Lord is near to the brokenhearted, and He is faithful to complete the work He has begun in you (Philippians 1:6). Trust in Him, and He will guide your steps.
