Prayer for my faith to grow stronger

batuhan · Saturday at 8:29 AM

I wrote before that I was living an atheist life until Jesus took me into his kingdom. I was raised in Islamic traditions because I was born and lived in Turkey, but I never felt like a Muslim. I am lucky that I have never suffered much in my life. I lost my loved ones, but I somehow managed to overcome their loss. The greatest pain I have ever experienced in my life was when my girlfriend of 4 years broke up with me. Although I am a very calm person in my normal life, I was literally causing her pain; swearing, insulting, controlling her life and even threatening her. We continued to talk for a while after we broke up and one night I got extremely angry with her and said things that even the devil would never say, then I calmed down by saying to myself, my friend, what are you doing? I was sitting and a voice whispered John 14:6 to me. I had no knowledge of the Bible. When I searched John 14:6 on the internet, I was shocked. It is impossible to describe those feelings. I tried to get over the shock of the incident for 1-2 days and finally I couldn't stand it anymore and told a Christian friend about the situation and we prayed together and called Jesus to my heart. The incidents didn't end there, last night I was saying good night to myself in English and to my girlfriend in Polish and before I could finish my sentence I heard a voice saying be patient and keep waiting. And finally I saw in my dream that I had a daughter from my ex-girlfriend. I believe that all these experiences are God's gift to me to strengthen my faith and live as a new person. I only ask you to pray for me to continue my life in a way worthy of Jesus, to strengthen my faith and for my ex-girlfriend to forgive me. Because I cannot accept and understand the pain I caused her, I am not that bad person and I don't want to be.

We rejoice with you, batuhan, for the incredible journey you've been on, from living an atheist life to being drawn into Jesus' kingdom. It is a powerful testimony of God's grace and mercy. We are here to pray with you and to encourage you in your newfound faith.

Firstly, we want to address the transformation you've experienced. It is clear that God has been working in your life, revealing Himself to you in powerful ways. The verse that was whispered to you, John 14:6, says, "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." This is a foundational truth of the Christian faith, and it is wonderful that God used this verse to draw you to Himself.

Regarding the relationship:

We are concerned about your relationship with your ex-girlfriend. We understand the pain you both experienced, but we must address the behaviors you mentioned—swearing, insulting, controlling, and threatening—these are not in line with God's will for our relationships. It is not loving and should not be a part of the Christian life. The Bible tells us to love one another as Christ has loved us. This means treating others with kindness, respect, and patience.

Ephesians 4:31-32 WEB says, "Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, outcry, and slander, be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you."

We also need to address the context of your relationship. If you have been living or engaging in a sexual relationship with your ex-girlfriend, we need to understand God's design for relationships. This is called fornication and should be avoided. It is important to pursue relationships that align with biblical principles, seeking marriage with another Christian believer.

1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB says, "Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body."

Regarding your experiences with your ex-girlfriend and the dreams you've had, it's important to test these experiences against the Word of God. Dreams can be influenced by many factors, and not all dreams are from God. It's crucial to seek God's will in His Word and through prayer.

Regarding your prayer request, we pray that God will continue to transform you, strengthening your faith and helping you to live a life worthy of Jesus. We also pray for your ex-girlfriend, that she may find healing and forgiveness in her heart.

Let's pray:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up batuhan. We thank You for drawing him to Yourself and for the work You have begun in his life. Lord, we pray that You would continue to transform him, renewing his mind and heart according to Your Word. Help him to live a life that honors You, reflecting Your love and kindness to others.

Lord, we also pray for his ex-girlfriend. We ask that You would bring healing to her heart and help her to forgive batuhan. We pray that both of them would come to know You more deeply and that their lives would be a testimony of Your grace and mercy.

In all things, Lord, we ask that You would be glorified. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Lastly, we encourage you to continue studying God's Word, praying, and fellowshipping with other believers. These practices will help you grow stronger in your faith and live a life that honors God. If you are not currently involved in a local church, we strongly encourage you to find one where you can grow and serve alongside other believers. It is also important to share your story. This is your testimony of God's love, mercy, and salvation. Remember God's word in 1 John 1:9 WEB, If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

We are here for you, batuhan, and we will continue to pray for you as you journey with Jesus.
