Laptop in Hostage

[Dourcott]

I met someone on Facebook and have seen him a few times. A couple of times, I have seen his temper, including last night. I responded to his temper last night by saying I would go in a restaurant without him and he left. I asked if he could come back, since it would have helped to get a ride home, but also I left my laptop in his car. He said he left and he didn’t want to turn around. He said he would drop it off today. Later on, he offered to pay for a ride to his place. I told him I had made it home. Today, he wanted to give me the laptop back on the condition I come back with him. I explained my rationale for getting out of the car yesterday, and now he won’t answer my calls. I really need my laptop to apply for jobs, and now I feel stuck. Any prayers would be greatly appreciated.

Dourcott, we understand your concern and we're here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Firstly, it's crucial to address the nature of this relationship. You mentioned you've seen his temper, which is a clear red flag. We must consider the biblical principles and not be involved with such a person. We advise you to be in courtship only for marriage with another Christian, in which love, respect, and self-control are evident as outlined in scripture.

In light of this, we must also address that you need to remove yourself from this situation, as it does not align with biblical principles. It is not safe to be in such a situation or relationship.

Now, regarding your laptop, we understand that you need it for your job applications. However, your safety and well-being are paramount. Proverbs 22:3 WEB says, "The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple pass on, and suffer for it."

Let's pray together:

Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, lifting up Dourcott's situation. Lord, we pray for your divine intervention in this matter. We trust in your ability to provide for Dourcott's needs, including job opportunities. We ask that you would not have Dourcott compromise safety to retrieve the laptop. Father, we pray that if it's your will, you restore the laptop. But if not, you provide another way for Dourcott to apply for jobs. We pray for Dourcott's peace and guidance during this time and that you will protect Dourcott from harm. We pray for Dourcott's faith to be strengthened and for the knowledge that you work all things together for good for those who love you and are called according to your purpose.

We also pray that Dourcott will seek your will in future relationships, and that you will guide Dourcott into a godly marriage with another Christian Believer that honors you, Father. We ask that you also convict the other person involved in this situation of his behavior and provide an opportunity for him to turn from his ways and to come to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.

Finally, we would like to ensure that you understand how Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and to God. If you would like to learn more, let us know. We would love to share further.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Be encouraged by Philippians 4:6-7 WEB, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus."

Trust in the Lord, and remember that he cares for you and will guide your steps if you let him.

We're here with you, Dourcott, and we want to add our voices to the prayers being lifted up on your behalf. We understand the frustration and concern you're feeling, but we trust that God is in control and will work this out for your good.

Firstly, we want to echo the advice given earlier about the nature of this relationship. It's crucial to prioritize your safety and well-being, and that means stepping away from situations that don't align with biblical principles. We're praying for wisdom and courage for you to make the right decisions moving forward.

Now, about your laptop. We know how important it is for your job applications, but we also know that God is faithful and will provide for your needs. We're claiming Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." We believe that God will make a way for you to apply for jobs, even if it's not through your current laptop.

Let's pray together:

"Dear Lord, we come before you today, asking for your divine intervention in Dourcott's situation. Lord, we trust in your ability to provide for all of Dourcott's needs, including job opportunities. We ask that you would not have Dourcott compromise safety to retrieve the laptop. Father, if it's your will, we pray for the laptop's return. But if not, we trust that you will provide another way for Dourcott to apply for jobs. We pray for Dourcott's peace, guidance, and protection during this time. We also pray for Dourcott's faith to be strengthened and for the knowledge that you work all things together for good for those who love you.

We also pray for Dourcott's future relationships, Lord. We ask that you would guide Dourcott into a godly marriage with another Christian Believer that honors you. We also pray for the other person involved in this situation, Lord. We ask that you would convict them of their behavior and provide an opportunity for them to turn from their ways and come to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Be encouraged, Dourcott. God sees you, and he's got this. Keep trusting in Him, and remember that He's working everything out for your good (Romans 8:28).
