I gave into my lust, and may have contracted HIV, follow-up post as requested

[Theolland]

I deeply regrettably saw a sex worker and I'm currently in the midst of a sickness I believe may be HIV and this is the worst possible punishment I could imagine. I have gotten some negative results (thank God) but they are too early to be considered conclusive. I'm awaiting more testing and in light of my symptoms becoming worse or at least not alleviating, am facing a lot of guilt, regret and anxiety. I feel pathetic and sinful and tainted. I fully believe, based on my symptoms, that I have this terrible virus and I truly believe the only hope for me not having it now is if God sees fit (though I don't know why he would but I pray nonetheless) to miraculously change and/or remove what is happening from my body. I pray that I don't have it, or that if I do I'll have the strength to face it but this seems very unlikely to me. Please pray for me and my parents as this will affect them as well. Not only for my health but for me to redeem myself from this terrible sin. A beg this in the name of Jesus. Amen.

We understand your distress, Theolland, and we're here to support you in prayer and truth. Firstly, we commend you for your honesty and acknowledgment of your sin. It's important to remember that God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins when we confess them (1 John 1:9 WEB).

However, we must address that engaging with a sex worker is not only a sin of lust but also a sin against your own body (1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB). The body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, and we should honor God with our bodies (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB). We rebuke this sin in the name of Jesus and encourage you to turn away from such acts.

It's crucial to remember that God's forgiveness is not always synonymous with the removal of earthly consequences. If you have contracted HIV, it's not a punishment from God, but a consequence of your actions. However, God can give you the strength to face it (Philippians 4:13 WEB).

We encourage you to seek medical help and continue with the tests. God has given us medicine and doctors as a means of his grace. It's also important to share your status with your future spouse when the time comes, as sexual purity within marriage is sacred (Hebrews 13:4 WEB).

Let's pray:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Theolland. Lord, we thank you for your forgiveness and ask that you would cleanse Theolland from all unrighteousness. We pray for healing, that if it is your will, any disease would be wiped away from their body. However, if Theolland is to live with this illness, we pray that you would give them the strength and grace to endure it. Comfort their heart, Lord, and remove any shame, guilt, or regret that is not from you. Be with their parents, Lord, give them peace and understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Remember, Theolland, God loves you and desires for you to walk in freedom and purity. Trust in his love and mercy. Keep your faith in Jesus Christ, for it is through his name that we are saved (Acts 4:12 WEB). We encourage you to grow in your relationship with God, studying his word and seeking his will for your life.

We're here with you, Theolland, in this heavy burden you're carrying. We feel your anxiety and regret, and we want you to know that you're not alone. We've been where you are now, feeling tainted and pathetic, but God's grace is bigger than our sin.

First, let's acknowledge the elephant in the room. Yeah, we know what you did, and it's okay to feel guilty about it. But remember, God's not surprised by our mess. He's been waiting for us to turn to Him, to confess our sins, and to be cleansed (1 John 1:9). So, let's do that together right now. Lord, we confess the sin of lust and the disrespect shown to Theolland's body. We ask for your forgiveness and cleansing.

Now, about this HIV thing. It's scary, we get it. But let's not forget that God is in control. He's the one who heals (Exodus 15:26), and He's the one who gives life and takes it away (Deuteronomy 32:39). If it's His will for you to be healed, then you will be. But if not, then we trust that He has a purpose in it (Romans 8:28).

We're praying for you, Theolland. We're asking God to give you peace, to take away your anxiety, and to fill you with His love (2 Corinthians 1:3-4). We're praying for your parents too, that they'd have understanding and comfort in this situation.

Let's keep talking, okay? We're here for you. And remember, no matter what happens, God loves you. He sent His Son to die for you, not because you're perfect, but because you're His (John 3:16). Trust in that love, and let's walk this road together, one step at a time. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father, we come before You with a heart full of humility and repentance, lifting up this plea for mercy and healing. Lord, we know that You are a God of grace, forgiveness, and miracles, and that no sin is too great for Your love to cover. Your Word promises in 1 John 1:9, “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” We ask for Your forgiveness, Lord, as this heart cries out to You in deep regret and repentance.

We pray for healing and protection from this sickness. Lord, You are the ultimate healer, and we stand on Your promise in Psalm 103:3, "He forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases." We ask for a miraculous intervention, that the symptoms and fears that are causing so much anxiety be lifted, and that Your peace, which transcends all understanding, would guard this mind and heart in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).

Father, grant strength to face the days ahead, and we pray for the testing to come back with good results. Help them to place their trust fully in You, knowing that You work all things for the good of those who love You (Romans 8:28). Surround them with Your love and presence during this time of waiting, and help them to rest in Your grace.

We also pray for their parents, that You would give them peace, comfort, and strength, and that You would protect their hearts from fear and worry. Lord, we ask for restoration and redemption, knowing that You are a God who makes all things new (Revelation 21:5). May they find forgiveness, hope, and the strength to walk a path of healing and renewal in Your grace.

We ask all this in the powerful name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.

You are so right I wasn't even considering that it was also a terrible sin against my own body. Lord, please forgive me. I know God would not be punishing me, in fact I'm quite sure he tried to save me from this both before and after the incident but I didn't see or didn't want to see and now I'm here in this terrible situation. I know that I wouldn't deserve him to save me from these consequences but I so badly hope and pray that it's his will to give me a second chance to be free of this virus and live my life without it. Of course if not as you said I pray he gives me the strength to face and endure it, though I do not see as remotely possible right now. I've never felt so weak in my life. God, I've been so humbled by this, please give me mercy and strength and to my family as well. And yes I also hope and pray that I will be worthy of a wife one day that will accept my status either way and that we will have a proper union in God's eyes.
Thank you so much for your prayers, in Jesus name, Amen
