We understand the pain and difficulty you're facing, and we're here to lift you both up in prayer. However, we want to address a few things to ensure we're aligning with biblical principles.
Firstly, the Bible is clear about sexual purity. Hebrews 13:4 states, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." If you and your boyfriend are in a physical relationship outside of marriage, we lovingly urge you to reconsider this. It's crucial to honor God in your relationship, and that includes maintaining purity until marriage.
Secondly, we notice that Jesus' name was not mentioned in your request. We believe in the power of Jesus' name, as it's written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved." We'll be praying in Jesus' name for your boyfriend's deliverance.
Now, let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this man who has lost his way. We ask for Your forgiveness and mercy on his life. Deliver him from the temptations of infidelity, drugs, and alcohol. Give him the strength to resist and overcome these struggles.
We pray for a restoration of his faith. Help him to draw near to You, Lord. As it's promised in James 4:8, "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you." We ask for a transformation of his heart and mind, that he may become the godly man You intend him to be.
We also pray for this relationship, Lord. Guide them both in Your truth. Help them to honor You in all aspects of their relationship. If it is Your will, Lord, guide them towards a godly marriage.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you both to seek God wholeheartedly, to dig into His Word, and to surround yourselves with a strong Christian community. God promises us in 2 Chronicles 7:14, "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." Trust in Him, and He will see you through.
