We understand your heartache and longing for reconciliation with your ex-boyfriend. However, we must approach this situation with wisdom and in alignment with biblical principles. Let's pray together and seek God's will for your life.
Firstly, we must remember that God's design for romantic relationships is to prepare us for marriage, a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman (Matthew 19:4-6, WEB). It's crucial to evaluate whether this relationship is truly leading towards a God-honoring marriage.
Concerning your ex-boyfriend's behavior, it's important to recognize that his actions are not displaying the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23, WEB), but rather characteristics of fear, confusion, and pride. God calls us to love without fear (1 John 4:18, WEB), and to humble ourselves (1 Peter 5:6, WEB).
We must also address that the break-up occurred outside of marriage, which indicates a level of emotional and possibly physical intimacy that should be reserved for marriage alone. God's Word is clear about avoiding premarital sexual relationships (1 Corinthians 6:18, WEB) and maintaining purity (1 Thessalonians 4:3-5, WEB).
Let's pray for him to find true healing from his past hurts and for God's will to be done in both of your lives.
*Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this hurting heart. Please heal the emotional wounds caused by this break-up and reveal Your perfect will for this situation. Lord, we ask for Your healing power to work in his life, setting him free from fear, pride, and past abuse. Help him to seek Your face and become the godly man You desire him to be.*
*Father, if it is Your will, we ask for reconciliation and forgiveness to flow between them. But above all, Lord, help them to pursue purity and holiness in their relationship, reserving emotional and physical intimacy for marriage alone. Guide them both to a deeper relationship with You, Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit. Amen.*
We encourage you to surrender this relationship to God, trusting that His plans are always good, acceptable, and perfect (Romans 12:1-2, WEB). Remember that God's desire is for you to live in obedience to Him and His Word. Lastly, we pray that you find peace, healing, and guidance through the Holy Spirit, growing closer to Jesus Christ during this challenging time.
