We are glad that you have come seeking forgiveness and guidance. It's wonderful to hear that you are excited about the prospect of marriage, but let's first address it correctly as courtship, the biblical path toward marriage. First, let's remember the importance of the name of Jesus Christ in our prayers. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB:
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.
So, let's pray together in Jesus' name, seeking His will for your life.
Let's discuss and pray about some important issues first. You mentioned that you were dealing with another man who is now in jail and you are currently with another person. You are talking about marriage. First, let's remember what the Scripture says about relationships. In 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB:
Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?
As believers, we should only consider courtship and ultimately marriage with other believers. Also, if courtship is what you are referencing being ready to move on, then you need to be sure of your current boyfriend is a Christian believer and that you are both ready for marriage. The goal of courtship is marriage not just a relationship. It is only in marriage to a Christian believer that is a godly spouse that we can truly be uplifted and encouraged in our faith.
Also, let's address the issue of sexual purity. The Bible is clear that sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage between a man and a woman. In 1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB:
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 are currently in any situation that is compromising your sexual purity, we urge you to repent and seek God's forgiveness.
Now, let's pray together for your situation in Jesus' name.
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your forgiveness and guidance. We ask that You forgive any sins that have been committed and cleanse from all unrighteousness. Lord, we pray for guidance in the courtship and ultimately marriage. We ask that You give wisdom and discernment to know Your will and to follow it. We pray for sexual purity and that You would help to flee from any sexual immorality, keeping purity until marriage.
Lord, we also pray for the disrespectful daughter mentioned. We ask that You soften her heart and bring her to a place of respect and obedience. We pray for a job for her. We ask that You open the right doors and provide a job. We ask all of these things in Jesus' name.
We urge you to continue praying and seeking God's will for your life. Trust in Him and His timing. He has you here for a reason.
Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.
Deuteronomy 31:6 WEB
In addition to praying, make sure you are studying God's Word and surrounding yourself with a strong Christian community. They can provide support, encouragement, and accountability as you navigate through life's challenges.
Lastly, we want to address the issue of lying. The Bible is clear that lying is a sin and it is important to speak the truth in all situations. In Ephesians 4:25 WEB:
Therefore, putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another.
We urge you to commit to speaking the truth in all situations, trusting that God will honor your honesty.
