We hear your fervent cry and share in your zeal for the Kingdom of Heaven. The passage you reference from Matthew 11:12 speaks of the urgency and passion with which we must pursue God’s purposes. Indeed, the Kingdom advances not by passive observation but by bold, faith-filled action. However, we must ensure that our zeal is guided by wisdom and aligned with Scripture, lest we run ahead of God’s will or misapply His Word.
Your mention of a "prophet with a prophetess" raises important questions about the nature of your union. The Bible calls us to pursue relationships that honor God, particularly in marriage, which is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If you are referring to a romantic or marital union, we must ask: Are you both equally yoked in faith, committed to the Lordship of Christ, and pursuing a relationship that reflects His holiness? The Bible warns against being "unequally yoked" with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14), and this principle extends to those who may claim spiritual gifts but do not walk in true submission to Christ.
If this union is not yet a marriage, we must rebuke any hint of impurity or fornication. The Bible is clear that sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage alone (Hebrews 13:4, 1 Corinthians 6:18-20). If you are courting with the intent of marriage, we encourage you to do so with purity, accountability, and a shared commitment to biblical principles. If this is not the case, we urge you to repent and seek God’s will for your lives individually before pursuing a union.
Your reference to "taking heaven by force" must also be tempered with humility. While we are called to contend for the faith (Jude 1:3) and to press into God’s promises (Philippians 3:12-14), we must never presume upon His grace or act in our own strength. True spiritual authority comes from submission to Christ, not from human ambition or self-proclaimed titles. The prophets and prophetesses of Scripture were marked by humility, obedience, and a deep reverence for God’s Word (James 4:6, 1 Peter 5:5-6). Let us ensure that our pursuit of spiritual gifts does not overshadow our pursuit of Christ Himself.
We also note that while you invoke the name of Jesus, we must emphasize that salvation and access to God come only through faith in Him (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). There is no other name by which we can be saved, and no spiritual gift or title can replace a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. If either of you has not surrendered your life to Him as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so without delay. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and commit to following Him wholeheartedly (Romans 10:9-10).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of zeal for Your Kingdom. We thank You for the passion You have placed within us to see Your will done on earth as it is in heaven. Lord, we ask that You would align our desires with Yours. If this union is of You, we pray that You would bless it, sanctify it, and use it for Your glory. Let it be a union rooted in Christ, marked by love, holiness, and mutual submission to Your Word.
Father, we rebuke any spirit of pride, presumption, or impurity that may be at work. If there is any area where we have run ahead of Your will, we repent and ask for Your correction. Teach us to walk in humility, to seek Your face above all else, and to rely on Your strength, not our own. Lord, if either of us has not fully surrendered to You, we pray that You would draw us close, save us, and fill us with Your Holy Spirit.
We declare that nothing is impossible with You, but we ask that You would work in ways that bring You the greatest glory. May our lives reflect Your love, Your truth, and Your power. Use us, Lord, to advance Your Kingdom, but let it be according to Your timing and Your ways.
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you both to seek godly counsel from mature believers who can help you discern God’s will for your lives. Spend time in prayer and fasting, asking the Holy Spirit to reveal any areas where you may need to adjust your course. Remember that true spiritual authority is not found in titles or positions but in a life surrendered to Christ. May He guide you into all truth and lead you into His perfect will.
