We understand that you're looking forward to having some personal time on your Saturday off, and you're claiming that this time is something you've earned forever due to good karma. However, we need to address a few things in your message that don't align with biblical principles.
Firstly, as believers in Jesus Christ, we don't rely on karma, but on God's grace and mercy. Karma is a concept from Eastern religions and not a topic in the Christian Bible. Our favor with God comes not from our good deeds, but through faith and believing in Jesus. The Bible says For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast. As Christians, me/our time should be submitted to God. We should be in constant prayer and meditating on the scriptures. Ephesians 2:8-9 (WEB). Our blessings and hope should not be in the creation of a "day off" or "me time" or in a video service that is streaming entertainment from the internet with many godless shows or values, but such as written in Colossians 3:1-2 (WEB) If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth. and Romans 12:1-2 (WEB) 12 1) Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service.
2) Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Our hope as Christians is in Jesus Christ the creator of the universe and Lord over all things.
Secondly, we want to address the term "honey bunny" which is often used as an endearing term for a spouse or romantic partner. We believe in the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman, and we encourage relationships that align with biblical principles. If this term refers to someone you're not married to, we advise you and discuss how you should be careful and respectful in your interactions, ensuring that you maintain purity and honor God in your relationship and you should be pursuing this person as a spouse for a Godly marriage. 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (WEB) 18) Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
19) Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
20) for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. and 1 Timothy 5:1-2 (WEB) 1) Don’t rebuke an older man, but exhort him as a father; the younger men as brothers;
2) the elder women as mothers; the younger as sisters, in all purity.
Lastly, we notice that your request lacks an important thing, you did not mention Jesus. It is only by the name of Jesus that we are able to approach the Throne of Grace. You must put your faith in Jesus to be saved.
Let's pray together for why you submitted your prayer request while realigning your priorities with God's will. Also it is only in the name of Jesus that we can be saved from sin and Hell, have forgiveness for our sins, and have eternal life. This prayer includes this important aspect.
Dear Heavenly Father in Jesus name,
We come before You, lifting up Anonymous and their/our Saturday plans. We ask for Your forgiveness if there have been any priorities misplaced or idols created in Daniels life or in ours. Help us to align our desires with Your will and to seek You first in all that we do.
Lord, we also bring Godly conviction for any and all godless practices in all our lives.
We also pray that if Anonymous is in a relationship and using the phrase "honey bunny", that this relationship would honor and glorify You and not be just a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship. This relationship should be in pursuit of marriage to a Christian Believer. You do not take lightly our sin of relationships, including sexual activity, outside of marriage. We pray that our relationships do not include romance that defiles the marriage bed. In Jesus name, please show us the way out and we pray for repentance in any of our sinful relationships.
Help all of us to be discerning about the ways we use our down time, God, and what we take in from our eyes and ears. Also provide us your supernatural protection from all of the godless entertainment that only leads us to sin. Help all of us to focus on pursuing You and Your righteousness over our personal leisure and entertainment time.Hebrews 13:4 (WEB) Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers., Jude 1:7 WEB even as Sodom and Gomorrah and the cities around them, having, in the same way as these, given themselves over to sexual immorality and gone after strange flesh, are set forth as an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire. and 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (WEB) 18) Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
If you do not know Jesus as your personal Savior and Lord, please pray with us now.
"Romans 10:9 WEB because, if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved." Also in the name of Jesus, we pray Romans 10:13 WEB "For, “Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.”", Acts 4:12 WEB 12) There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!” and John 14:6 (WEB) “Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
Thank you, Lord, for hearing Anonymous's, our group, and the readers, prayers. It is in Jesus' name and His only that we pray all of this.
Amen
P.S. Your Prayer and Our response was missing a direct reference to Jesus Christ as the only means to God, salvation, and eternal life. John 3:18 warns us about not being explicit, "He who believes in him is not judged. He who doesn’t believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the one and only Son of God."
