An update and a plead for prayers

[Paroxyromai]

This is an update since my last prayer request, and I want to thank you again for your prayers and encouragement. Knowing that others are lifting me up has been a huge source of strength during this season of uncertainty and growth. I believe God has been speaking to me in powerful ways, and I’ve received confirmation from three different people—a Christian hypnotherapist, a reverend who reached out unexpectedly, and a close friend deeply rooted in their faith. None of them know each other, yet they all shared the same message: God is asking me to wait patiently, that Maeve will come to me in His timing, and that this is a season for me to focus on my own growth, faith, and purpose. They also encouraged me to continue praying for Maeve to find Christ in a transformative way and to ask God to keep the oil in my lamp filled so that I’ll be spiritually ready for whatever He reveals next. However, today has been different from other days. I’ve been crying all day—not from sadness, but from an overwhelming mix of emotions I can’t fully describe. I deeply love Maeve and feel like God is pushing me toward her, but I feel scared about the future because I don’t know what’s ahead. I’m not confused about the situation itself, but I am uncertain about what I’m supposed to do in the meantime—whether I need to remain in waiting or if God is calling me to act now, especially since her finals are over. The last time I submitted a prayer request here, I felt like I received so many answers, and it truly showed me the power of prayer. I need that guidance again. Please pray that God gives me clarity and peace in this waiting period, and that He shows me clearly whether I should wait or act. Please pray that I have the patience to trust in His timing and the courage to follow His lead, even if it’s hard. I also ask for prayers that Maeve’s heart would soften and that she would come to know Christ in a deep, life-changing way. Please pray that God continues to shape me into the man He wants me to be and keeps me spiritually prepared for whatever is to come. I would also love to receive prayers that I can pray on my own—Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, or even intercessory prayers from saints. I am open to anything that can help me stay connected to God and grounded in His love and wisdom. Thank you so much for your continued prayers and encouragement. I trust that God is working in this situation, but I deeply value the support of those who are walking with me in prayer. May God bless you all. rqu.st/5059760

Let us join together in prayer and counsel for Paroxyromai, seeking God's will and wisdom in this situation. We are reminded of the words in Psalm 27:14 (WEB), "Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh."

Firstly, let us address the core of the request. Paroxyromai, you have not mentioned the name of Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name). It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. The power in our faith, prayers, and the salvation we receive is only made possible by Jesus Christ.

There is no other name by which 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!"

Moving forward, we see that you are in a season of waiting and growth, and God has been speaking to you through various people, encouraging you to wait patiently and focus on your own growth and faith. This is a beautiful reminder that God's timing is perfect, and He is faithful to those who trust Him. This is characterized in 1 Corinthians 10:13:

No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

It is also a part of the Christian faith, to wait. Isaiah 64:4. It is a part of strengthening our faith, to have the heart God to have patience, and to trust in Him. Romans 8:25 (WEB), " But if we hope for that which we don't see, we wait for it with patience."

However, we must address a crucial issue in your request. You mention your deep love for Maeve and feel that God is pushing you toward her. While it is commendable to seek God's will in a relationship, we must ensure that this alignment adheres to biblical principles and His intention and purpose for marriage. We need to make sure this is a godly relationship that will be a marriage that honors God, and you should be pursuing this relationship as a courtship with the goal being marriage to another Christian Believer. If it is not, it may simply be lust, which is a form of selfishness. Whether we are lusting for status, sexuality, or any sort of selfish desire, it is sin and not from God. If that is not what you are intending for this relationship, then you need to repent of your sin. We should also be in prayer for Maeve, that God may act in her heart and life, to draw her near to Him, and be convicted and may turn from any sin she lives in. But do not fall into sin yourself in the process. Ephesians 5:22-33 expounds on the roles of husbands and wives in marriage, emphasizing the sanctity and design of marriage according to God's plan.

It is clear that the marriage union is a covenant that Yahweh describes. This is not something that you would spend in love and be intimate without marriage. Doing so is sin.

First and foremost is addressing the issue of pursuing Maeve. 1 Corinthians 7:39-40 (WEB), a wife is bound by law for as long as her husband lives; but if the husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she desires, only in the Lord. But she is happier if she stays as she is, in my opinion. And I think that I also have God's Spirit.

While we pray for Maeve's heart to soften and for her to come to know Christ deeply, it is essential to understand that such love must be in the realm of love in agape rather than eros as is outlined in 1 Corinthians 13:4-13:

Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will be done away with. Where there are various languages, they will cease. Where there is knowledge, it will be done away with. For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with. When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I felt as a child, I thought as a child. Now that I have become a man, I have put away childish things. For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, even as I was also fully known. But now faith, hope, and love remain—these three. The greatest of these is love.

Additionally, seeking prayers from Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, or intercessory prayers from saints is not in accordance with biblical principles. We are guided by 1 Timothy 2:5 (WEB), "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,". There is no reference and it is not in the teachings of the Bible to pray to Mary, or to pray to any non-living saint, or to pray to an angel any further than to ask in Jesus' name. Having any other intercessory person is not following scripture, which says to pray directly and only to Jesus Christ. This includes praying for intercession from anyone who is not still physically alive, and it is unnecessary to be blessed by a priest.

Do not fall into the temptation of idolatry.

You are simply blessed by Jesus Christ, by grace, and through faith. We may pray being thankful for believers who have faithfully inspired and have been examples for Christians of the church. We do not worship them nor pray to them. We only pray to the Father, and it in the name of Jesus. 2 Corinthians 1:20 -22 (WEB), For all the promises of God in him are yes, and in him amen, to the glory of God through us. Now he who establishes us with you in Christ, and anointed us, is God; who also sealed us, and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up Paroxyromai in prayer. We thank You for the confirmation and guidance You have already provided through various people, and we ask for continued clarity and peace in this waiting period. Help Paroxyromai to trust in Your timing and to have the courage to follow Your lead, even when it is difficult.

Lord, we pray that Maeve's heart would be softened and that she would come to know Christ in a deep, life-changing way. We ask that You continue to shape Paroxyromai into the man You want him to be, keeping him spiritually prepared for whatever is to come.

Father, guide Paroxyromai in pursuing a godly relationship with Maeve, ensuring that it aligns with Your principles and Your will. Help him to remain patient in waiting, courageous in acting, and discerning in understanding Your timing. We seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit to abide in us, work through us, leading Maeve near, against any sin.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

May this prayer and these words provide encouragement, guidance and comfort. Trust in the Lord, knowing that praying and seeking His will in all aspects of your life regardless of relationship status.

Thank you for your thoughtful response and for taking the time to provide such a detailed and scriptural perspective on my situation. Your insights are truly appreciated, and I value the opportunity to reflect on them as I seek to align my heart and actions with God’s will.





Firstly, I want to affirm the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. I fully acknowledge that it is only through Him that we have access to God and salvation. While I may not have explicitly stated His name in my initial request, all my prayers are offered in His name, knowing that He is the mediator between God and humanity. Thank you for reminding me of this essential truth.





In regard to my feelings for Maeve, I want to assure you that my love is rooted in a desire to reflect God’s love—one that is patient, kind, and selfless. I have been reflecting on the nature of agape love and praying for the strength to embody it in all my relationships. I recognize the sanctity of marriage and agree that any romantic relationship must honor God and align with His plan for our lives. If reconciliation with Maeve is part of His will, I am committed to ensuring that it is grounded in faith and guided by Him. If it is not His will, I trust that He will guide me in letting go and preparing me for the future He has planned.





I also want to share that I have sought counsel and received confirmation from three independent witnesses—a Christian hypnotherapist, a reverend who reached out to me unexpectedly, and a close friend grounded in their faith. Without any connection to each other, all three shared the same message: that God is calling me to wait patiently, that Maeve will come to me in His timing, and that this is a season for growth and preparation. As 2 Corinthians 13:1 reminds us, “In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.” I believe these confirmations were not coincidences but a sign of God’s guidance.





Finally, I want to address your concerns regarding prayers from different traditions. My intention has always been to deepen my prayer life and connection to God. I do not seek to worship saints or angels but to draw inspiration from the faithful examples of those who have come before us. I understand your caution and take it seriously, ensuring that my focus remains solely on Christ.





Thank you again for your insights and encouragement. Your words have helped me reflect deeply on my intentions, and I remain committed to trusting God’s timing and aligning my life with His will.
