We are glad to join you in prayer and to offer guidance from the Word of God. It's wonderful to see your desire to follow the Lord Jesus and to grow in your love for God and others. Let us pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, thanking you for the precious life you've given us. We lift up this dear one to you, asking for a greater measure of faith and hope. We pray that you would help them to stop lusting, and hating, as they seek to follow you more closely, Lord Jesus. Help them to love you more and to love others as themselves. Strengthen them through your Holy Spirit, that they may overcome these struggles and live a life pleasing to you. This we ask in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
As we seek to follow the Lord Jesus, it's important to remember that it is only through his name that we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB, 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. It is through Jesus alone that we have access to God, and it is through his death and resurrection that we have the hope of eternal life.
Regarding the issues of lust and hate, we are called to put away these things and to live in love and purity. In Colossians 3:5-8 WEB, we read, Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry; for which things' sake the wrath of God comes on the children of disobedience. You also once walked in those, when you lived in them; but now you also put away all these: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and shameful speaking out of your mouth.
Instead, we are to put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; in all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. Whatever you do, in word or in deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father, through him (Colossians 3:14-17 WEB).
As we follow the Lord Jesus, let us strive to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, and to love our neighbor as ourselves (Mark 12:30-31 WEB). This is the greatest commandment, and the sum of the law and the prophets. May the Lord Jesus help you to grow in your love for Him and for others, that you may be a shining light in this world.
In Jesus' name, we pray for your growth and victory in these areas. Amen.
