Humble Prayer Partner
Hello everyone, I needed prayer over my relationship with ### and my family. My mom wanted to do a party to prevent dishonor in the community from me leaving home to be with ### and get married. I shared this with ###; he disagreed with the party but felt he had no choice but to wait for me until Sept since that's when the party was promised. Earlier this month, I asked my mom about the party to which she said she lied about planning for it since she felt unsure about ###. Once I had a long conversation with her about this, she realized it was wrong and said she would work on it immediately, which was true. We went to the venue the next day, but their soonest availability was Dec. I shared this with ###, but he said that's too far away, he didn't want to do the party anyway and would end the relationship if I didn't leave by the end of this month. I spoke with my mom again because I didn't want to be here anymore. She got upset and told me to call his parents, which I did so she could prove again that she was working on the party. They changed the date to Nov 29 since his parents would be available then. My mom called the venue placed the next day, and they said that day was okay if we came from 1-6 pm. I shared all of this with ###, along with how he's not standing on biblical principles of wanting us to live together before getting married and ending the relationship over something like this. I told him, as a partner, that he should be doing his part to prevent my family relationship from becoming compromised/broken and to be more understanding since me leaving my family's home is a big ask since there's a lot at stake for me if I do go. He ignored it, then said that I'm not living according to the Word of God and don't have the fear of the Lord. I still am praying over the situation, but please pray that God changes ###'s mind about this party and gives ### the spirit of patience and understanding so he can wait. Pray that Jesus will help ### realize that the way he's acting/what he's requesting isn't godly and that he shouldn't end the relationship. Pray that God gives ### peace over the party and that he trusts in God's timing since he's been rushing unnecessarily. Pray that my family is also at peace regarding my relationship with ### and that they will no longer purposely hinder us from being together. Pray against any enemy plans/attacks preventing ### and me from reaching marriage. Pray that ###'s pastor will speak to ### this Sunday and make him realize these things so that he will be more open to waiting on the party at least 1 more time. Please pray for God's help, in Jesus's name, amen. Thank you.
