We understand your desire for restoration in your relationship with the father of your unborn child. However, we must address this situation from a biblical perspective. Firstly, it is important to acknowledge that God's design for intimacy and childbearing is within the bounds of marriage between a man and a woman.
Let us first pray for you in Jesus name:
Father, we come before You, lifting up this dear sister in Christ. We ask for Your forgiveness if there has been any sin in this relationship. We pray for Your guidance and wisdom in this situation. We ask that You work in the life of the father of this child, softening his heart towards You and towards the mother of his child. We pray that You would break down any spiritual barriers, generational curses, and demonic influences that may be at work in their lives. We ask that You would bring conviction of sin and a desire for repentance and reconciliation. We pray for Your protection and covering over these children. We ask that You would bring healing, repentance, and reconciliation, and that Your kingdom would be established in this family. We pray that You would bring godly influences into their lives and guide them according to Your will. We ask this in Jesus' name.
Now, let us consider what the Bible says. It is clear that sex outside of marriage is considered fornication, which is sinful in God's eyes.
1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB "Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body."
1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 WEB "For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don't know God;"
We encourage you to seek God's forgiveness if you have engaged in premarital sex. Remember that God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9).
Regarding your relationship, it is crucial to seek God's will and ensure that both of you are committed to following Christ and His principles. Marriage should be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, and it should be entered into with the utmost seriousness and dedication.
1 Corinthians 7:8-9 WEB "But I say to the unmarried and to widows, it is good for them if they remain even as I am. But if they don't have self-control, let them marry. For it's better to marry than to burn."
We encourage you to pray fervently, seek God's will, and surround yourself with godly counsel. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Lastly, we noticed that your prayer request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God the Father.
John 14:6 WEB Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.
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!
We encourage you to put your faith in Jesus Christ, believing that He died for your sins and rose again, and confessing Him as your Lord and Savior. This is the foundation of our faith and the path to salvation.
