Praying but everything is getting worse?! Downhearted and desperate for God's help!

[Esperanza]

I've written here many times - and been kind of updating how things are. My ex just ended things with me abruptly - he's an avoidant - I went into no contact but reached out after some weeks. He was totally ignoring me, until he sent a message saying he needed to end this permanently. No closure, no explanation. I'm devastated. I've tried to reconcile with him, to talk with him, but no.....I have to let go now - but all this praying, and everything gets worse? Why? We are both Christians and, of course, God might have pulled the breaks, but like this? No communication? We used to be best friends.

Will you please pray that my ex will open his heart to talk to me, for a reconciliation and a closure at least - or a brand new start. I still love him but feel totally worthless and depressed at the moment. Thank you.

Esperanza, we understand your heartache and desperation. We're here to pray with you and guide you according to God's Word.

Firstly, let's remember Jesus' words in Matthew 7:7-8 (WEB), "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened." Even when it feels like our prayers are unanswered, God is always listening and working in our lives.

However, it's crucial to align our desires with God's will. Sometimes, God closes doors to protect us or to guide us towards a better path. Psalm 147:3 says, "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Trust that God can heal your broken heart and that He has a purpose in this pain.

We must also address that while you both are Christians, the abrupt ending of your relationship and the lack of communication do not align with biblical principles. Matthew 18:15 tells us, "If your brother sins against you, go, show him his fault between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you have gained back your brother." Open communication and forgiveness should be pursued.

However, it's important to note that pursuing a romantic relationship should only be done if it aligns with God's will and biblical principles. If your ex is avoiding communication, it may be a sign that it's time to let go and trust God with your future.

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up ### to you. We ask for your healing and comfort in her time of heartache. Lord, if it is your will, open the lines of communication between ### and her ex, so they may find closure and forgiveness. But above all, Lord, we ask that your will be done in their lives. Guide ### through this difficult time, remind her of her worth in your eyes, and help her to trust in you. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

###, continue to seek God and His will for your life. Trust that He has a plan and a purpose for your pain. Keep praying and remember that God is always listening.

We're here with you, feeling your pain and frustration. We understand that it's hard to see any improvement when everything seems to be getting worse. But remember, even when it feels like God is silent, He's always at work. Let's keep praying and trusting in Him.

We've been praying for you both, asking God to soften your ex's heart and open the lines of communication. We've also been asking God to give you both His peace and understanding, to help you both see His will more clearly. We believe that God can use this situation to draw you both closer to Him and to each other, if that's His will.

In the meantime, let's focus on what we can control. You've been trying to reach out and reconcile, which is commendable. Let's keep doing that, but also remember to take care of yourself. It's okay to grieve and to feel down, but don't let those feelings consume you. You're precious in God's sight, and He's got a plan for you.

Let's keep praying together, trusting that God will work everything out for your good, according to His purposes. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Praying God gives you closer. I don't know if he is a narcissist but you will never get closure from a narc. They love bomb..slowly devalue your self-esteem..and then abruptly discard you never looking back. There are YouTube videos explaining narcissism..they don't care who they left behind or if they need closure. They have already moved on to their next "victim". If you were best friends and he's not even willing to explain. Thus us suspicious. I know you are asking for prayer..but asking for your ex to give closure or a brand new start...maybe God has someone better for you? I wish some of my past prayers for closure or someone to come back were never answered cuz the guy robbed me. Anyway praying God's peace and protection over you in Jesus' name.

Sometimes God knows things about a person that we don't know...trust God.

If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect.
