We understand that you're seeking discernment, wisdom, and perseverance in your current situation. First, we want to address the issue of moving in with your boyfriend. According to the Bible, this is not the right course of action. It is written, 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. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 WEB. Therefore, we encourage you to reconsider your living situation and seek a purer path moving forward. Marriage is the biblical standard for living together and should always be the goal in a relationship.
Regarding the issues you're facing with your boyfriend, it's important to remember that God calls us to be equally yoked with our spouses. This means that we should be aligned in our values, beliefs, and principles, as seen in 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB. "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"
It's clear that this man is not fulfilling God's calling for him and his responsibilities. Therefore, we are going to pray for the Lord to open his eyes to his responsibilities. We also pray that God will open your eyes to God's will for your life and your relationship. We are also praying for the Lord to reveal Himself to your boyfriend and draw him closer. God loves him so much and He wants him to prosper, but the Bible teaches that obedience comes before blessings.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up Bitbon and her boyfriend to You. Lord, we pray that You give Bitbon the wisdom and strength to make decisions that honor You. We ask that You guide her path and show her Your will for her life.
Father, we also pray for her boyfriend. We ask that You draw him closer to You and reveal Yourself to him. Lord, we pray that You show him the importance of responsibility and help him to grow and mature. We ask that You help him to see the value of cleanliness and self-care, not only for himself but also for the example he sets for Bitbon's son.
Lord, we pray for their financial situation. We ask that You provide for their needs and help them to trust in You. We pray for their success and prosperity, but most importantly, we pray for their spiritual growth and obedience to You. We pray that even as they struggle, they would grow closer to You and be blessed by You.
Father, we ask all of these things in accordance with Your will. We pray this is the name of Jesus Christ.
Amen
Bitbon, we encourage you to trust in the Lord and lean on Him for guidance in all things. Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB. This means to trust in the Lord, pray, and read His Word as you are seeking His will for your life.
Lastly, we want to remind you that God calls us to be examples to our children. Training them up in the way they should go, so that when they are old, they will not depart from it. Proverbs 22:6 WEB. It's crucial to model the behavior and values you want your son to emulate.
