Disciple of Prayer
I have a big prayer request. I'm needing it badly. I may be oversharing a bit, but I just want y'all to have some understanding of the situation. I also feel like it'll be easier to pray when you know the specifics of the situation and what to pray for. Anyways.. My boyfriend and I recently split up. I won't go into the specifics, but we are both hurting and needing healing. We are still friends, with hope of trying again in the future. But here's where I'm really needing help, which is a partial reason for the split, He has been on the fence about Christianity and religion after being hurt in the church years back. Recently it seems he's fallen away even further. He is going to a concert on Monday, and there's a satanic band that's going to be there. He decided to check them out and now enjoys the band and their music, and listens to them often. I have an awful, icky feeling about him listening to them. I also have an awful, icky feeling about him going to this concert, but he doesn't seem to find any problem with it whatsoever. I'm actually worried sick. I was originally supposed to go with him, but decided against it after finding out one of the bands was satanic, and because of the disturbance it created in my spirit. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to be controlling, and I still want him to have fun, but it just doesn't sit right with me. I'm scared that the concert is going to have a negative influence on him, and I'm super worried for him. After sharing my concerns, he told me that he listens to a few other satanic bands too. Which I was unaware of. This also gives me an icky feeling, and I'm just at a loss. He says he "just likes the sound" and "it's just music." He says he doesn't believe in it or agree with it, he just likes to listen to it. But it still bothers the heck out of me, because I know music has an influence on people. It just doesn't sit right with me, or with my spirit. Like I said, it makes me sick to think about. I'd like to get as many people as I can praying for him, that he'll open his eyes and come back to the Lord. That this concert will not drive him further from God, and that no spirits will attach themselves to him and try to come home with him. Ive been praying that God will speak to him, and create a disturbance in his spirit, like I have in mine, when he listens to them. And that he will drop these bands, and not listen to that garbage anymore. I can only hope that I'm not just overreacting and being crazy about all this. I'm super nervous about sending this, as this is my first time asking for prayers publicly or posting my business anywhere. I'm desperate, and scared.
