Man I love the spirit

[Paroxyromai]

Yesterday, I sought a quiet place to pray and connect with God as I’ve been struggling with His perceived “absence” lately. I decided to drive to a chapel in the woods, believing that solitude in His house would help me reach Him. However, when I arrived, the chapel was closed, even though it was supposed to be open until 8 p.m. It frustrated me, and I tried calling their number, but I couldn’t get in. Realizing I wouldn’t be able to pray there, I got back in the car and began praying while driving, talking to God as though I was on a speakerphone. What happened next was extraordinary: the Spirit washed over me like a wave. It was unmistakable, comforting, and powerful. I took that moment to test the Spirit and ask for clarity, just as David often did in his prayers for guidance. I know the Bible calls us to “test the spirits to see whether they are from God.” So I asked three questions to discern God’s will: First, “Lord, if she’s not for me, make it abundantly clear.” The Spirit stayed constant, neither increasing nor decreasing—indicating no clear answer. Then, “Lord, if she’s for me, make it abundantly clear.” At this, the Spirit intensified, surging in strength, affirming and convicting me with a clear “Yes.” Lastly, “Lord, should I send her this text message?” This was a sensitive message about the situation on the Discord server and my concerns for her well-being. The Spirit skyrocketed to the point where I was overwhelmed with tears—a definite affirmation to proceed. I sent the message, trusting in the Spirit’s guidance. Later that night, I felt the Spirit’s presence again. Once more, I sought clarity and tested it with another question: “Lord, will we meet soon, or will she respond to my message?” The Spirit rose again, affirming that I could trust in His timing and guidance. This morning at church, the sermon was on waiting, wish lists, and relationships. The pastor spoke about Simeon and Anna’s faithfulness as they waited for the Messiah’s arrival during Jesus’ dedication in Jerusalem. Simeon had been promised by the Holy Spirit that he would see the Messiah before his death, and Anna faithfully served God in fasting and prayer until that moment. It felt like God was speaking directly to me, reminding me that while He may give green lights for action, He is still in control. Just as Simeon waited patiently for God’s promise to be fulfilled, I need to trust that God’s plan is unfolding at the right time. Please pray that Maeve’s heart is softened and that she comes to know Christ. Pray that we can reconcile the past with grace and understanding and that, if it’s God’s will, this leads to a Christ-centered romantic relationship built on faith and love. Pray also that I can continue to trust in God’s timing and His plans, knowing that His ways are perfect. Finally, I ask for prayers that the Holy Spirit will come to me again tonight so that I may ask further questions with clarity and discernment. Thank you for your prayers and support—they mean the world to me as I navigate this journey.

Ùnthis journey, it is clear that you have been granted a profound experience with the Holy Spirit, reminiscent of the words in Acts 2:17-18, "It will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh... And it will be that whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved." This is a beautiful reminder that God is always present, even when we may not perceive Him. It is also important to remember the words of James 4:8, "Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you."

Firstly, we want to address the fact that your prayers and experiences did not mention Jesus Christ. It is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we are saved and can pray to God. Acts 4:12 says, "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!" This is why we always pray in Jesus' name.

We commend you for testing the spirits, as advised in 1 John 4:1, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world." Your experience serves as a reminder that the Holy Spirit is indeed a person who can be grieved and who speaks to us, often confirming the Father's will.

Regarding your relationship, we must address a few things. First, it is important to remember that God's will is for us to be equally yoked with our spouses. 2 Corinthians 6:14 says, "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?"

This is why we must always pursue relationships that align with biblical principles, seeking a godly spouse who shares our faith and commitment to Christ. It is also important to remember that marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, as outlined in the Bible.

We must also address the fact that you mentioned sending a sensitive message to her on the Discord server. While we understand your concerns, it is important to remember that our communication should always be pure, honest, and uplifting, as outlined in Ephesians 4:29, "Let no corrupt speech proceed out of your mouth, but such as is good for building up as the need may be, that it may give grace to those who hear."

Now, let us pray together.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother in his journey. We pray that Maeve's heart is softened and that she comes to know Christ as her Savior. We ask that You grant them both grace and understanding, and if it is Your will, that this leads to a Christ-centered romantic relationship built on faith and love.

We pray for guidance and discernment, that You continue to reveal Your will and timing. We ask that You send Your Holy Spirit to comfort, guide, and speak to our brother tonight, granting him clarity and discernment in all things.

We pray for a hedge of protection around this relationship, that it may be pure and honoring to You. We ask that any communication between them is uplifting and encouraging, always seeking to build each other up in Christ.

Finally, we pray for our brother, that he may continue to trust in Your timing and Your plans, knowing that Your ways are perfect. We ask that You grant him peace and patience, and that he may always seek to honor You in all he does.

We pray these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Be encouraged, and always remember that God is faithful and true. Trust in His timing and His plans, knowing that He has your best interests at heart.
