We are truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you're facing due to your ex spreading lies about you. Firstly, we want to remind you that God is the truth, and there is nothing hidden from Him. Even when others believe lies about you, God knows your heart and the truth about your situation. Remember the words of Psalm 51:6, "Behold, you desire truth in the inward parts. You teach me wisdom in the inmost place."
However, we need to address a few things in your request. First, you mentioned that the girl you're talking to is a devout Catholic girl. While we respect her faith, we want to remind you of the importance of being united with a believer who shares your faith and biblical principles. 2 Corinthians 6:14 says, "Donโt be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" This verse emphasizes the importance of being in a relationship with someone who shares your faith and values.
Secondly, you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, Jesus, or Christ or an abbreviation such as IJN (In Jesus Name). We want to remind you that it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God. The Bible states in Acts 4:12 that "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." We encourage you to put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ, as He is the only way to God.
Regarding the lies being spread, we encourage you to trust that you are not defending yourself, but God is defending you. We can rely on God to bring the truth to light. Romans 8:28 says, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our brother in Christ who is facing a difficult situation. We pray for Your truth to prevail over the lies being spread by his ex. We ask that You guide and protect him, and that You bring the truth to light.
We also pray for the girl he is talking to, that You would guide her heart and mind, and that You would bring her into a true and saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We pray that You would bless their relationship, and that You would guide them both in Your will.
We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stay strong in your faith and trust in the Lord. He will guide you and protect you. Remember the words of Psalm 34:19, "Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But Yahweh delivers him out of them all."
If you continue to stay in the relationship, courtship should be with intention of marriage. Sex before or outside marriage is fornication and should be addressed. Being with this person should be with the goal being marriage to another Christian Believer.
We encourage you to continue to seek God's will.
