Dexter2020, we understand that you're facing strong temptations, doubts, and spiritual battles. Firstly, it's commendable that you're seeking Jesus' help and preparing for your role as a husband. God's will is for us to be holy and avoid sexual immorality (1 Thessalonians 4:3, WEB), and He always provides a way out of temptation (1 Corinthians 10:13, WEB).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we bring Dexter2020 before your throne of grace. Thank You for Your unfailing love and faithfulness. Lord, Dexter is struggling with sexual temptation, and we ask that You strengthen him with Your mighty power to overcome. Help him to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5, WEB) and to put on the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:11, WEB) to stand firm against these attacks.
Lord, silence the voice of doubt and discouragement that's been taunting Dexter. In Jesus' name, we rebuke the enemy and command these spirits to go and not return. Tell the devil to feed sheep and pigs. Remind Dexter that You are faithful and true, and that Your promises are 'Yes' and 'Amen' in Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 1:20, WEB). Help him to trust in You, even when he doesn't see or understand Your work in his life.
Lord, we also pray against the influence of idols and other religions in Dexter's family. In Jesus' name, we break every curse, every spell and incantation, and we declare Your divine protection over Dexter's life and his family. Lord, we go before him and those who would attack to cause them to see the light of your Word, the mighty rock, the tried cornerstone your truth, your Word. We go before those that would stand against us now. We bring them down. We cancel out their power, authority, destruction, and confusion they seek against us and declare it removed, impotent, gone, and totally cancelled out from us by the power shed blood of Jesus Christ.
Father, guide Dexter as he prepares for his role as a husband. Give him wisdom, love, and patience, and help him to be a man after Your own heart. You are our righteousness. You are our life. Your name is Jesus Christ. You are our cross. Abiding in Jesus makes us who we are. You give us Your authority. Your name is Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ is our life. Help him keep his heart and mind pure and focused on You. Jesus' name is life. True life and love is found in no other name. Jesus, you are alive and we thank you Jesus. Jesus you are alive and eternal. In the mighty name Jesus. Amen.
Dexter; run into the secret place of the Lord as recorded in Psalm 91.
Psalm 91:1-16
You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who spend your nights in the shadow of the Almighty,
who say to the Lord, “My refuge! My fortress!
My God, in whom I trust!”—
he will rescue you from the snare of the hunter
and from the destructive plague.
He'll cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you'll find refuge.
His faithfulness is body armor and shield.
You won't fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day,
nor the plague that roams in the dark,
nor the devastating destruction at noon.
A thousand may fall at your side,
and ten thousand at your right side;
but it won't come near you.
You'll see it with your eyes,
but you'll see how the wicked are punished.
Because you've made the Lord my refuge,
and the Most High your dwelling,
no evil will happen to you,
and no plague will come near your tent,
because he'll order his angels to protect you wherever you go.
They'll carry you in their hands
so you don't trip over a stone on the road.
You’ll stomp on lions and cobras;
you’ll step on young lions and snakes.
The Lord says, “Because you've clung to me, I'll rescue you.
Because of your knowledge of my name, I'll protect you.
I'll answer them when they call to me, and I'll be there with them when they're in trouble.
I will rescue them and honor them.
I'll satisfy them with a long life,
and show them my salvation.
Because you've focused your life on my life, you'll see the victory of my life over the enemy.
During courtship and the future marriage prepare for each other before and after the marriage. You can only do this because of your knowledge of my name. Be careful not to removed my name from being in your presence. My name is the only name under heaven by which men can be saved. Believe in my name and make preparations for your future spouse. My name is Jesus Christ. Let all who seek a mate, seek it in my name. Amen.
Thank you Lord. Amen.
See the prayer that Peter prayed in Acts 4L23-30). Acts 4:23-28
23 When they had been released, they went to their own friends and reported what the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard it, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, “O Lord, you are God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all that is in them; 25 who by the mouth of your servant David said,
‘Why do the nations rage,
and the peoples plot a vain thing?
26 The kings of the earth take a stand,
and the rulers take council together,
against the Lord, and against his Christ.’[a]
27 “For truly, in this city against your holy servant, Jesus, whom you anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together 28 to do whatever your hand and your council foreordained to happen.
