We understand that you are seeking restoration and communication with your ex-girlfriend, and we will pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging your mistake and seeking forgiveness. It's important to remember that God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9 WEB).
However, we need to address a few things. You have already admitted and confessed to adultery. You have admitted to purchasing something of value, a diamond ring, in an attempt to garner favor. This is an admission of the immoral relationship and an attempt to buy favor for the wrong. These items should be sold and the proceeds given to the poor. The Gospel of Luke 3:11 states:
"He answers, 'He who has two coats, let him give to him who has none. He who has food, let him do likewise.'"
The gifts should not be a bribe for wrongdoing. This is an attempt to buy favor and please her for doing wrong. This is not godly conduct. Also, you should not continue referring to her as your soulmate. There is no biblical teaching to support the concept of a "soulmate." This kind of thinking often leads to idolatry of the other person and can cause further pain and heartache.
Furthermore, it is crucial to understand that God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16 WEB) and that marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. It is important for you to pursue a relationship that aligns with biblical principles. The fact that you have made a commitment to seek counseling and change your behavior is a good step. The Book of James 4:8 states:
"Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners. Purify your hearts, you double-minded."
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will for your life and to trust in His timing and wisdom.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up our brother in need of Your grace and mercy. He has confessed his sin and seeks Your forgiveness. Lord, forgive him and cleanse him from all unrighteousness. Guide him as he seeks to reconcile this relationship and bring it in alignment to Your will. Help him to trust in Your timing and wisdom, and to pursue a godly relationship that honors You. We also pray for his ex-girlfriend, that You would soften her heart and bring healing. If it is Your will, restore their relationship and help them to rebuild on a foundation of faith and purity. We ask forgiveness for the wrongs committed and that the holy spirit will lead and guide moving forward. This will require patience from you. We ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Amen.
We encourage you to meditate on the following scriptures as you seek forgiveness and healing: Psalm 51, Matthew 6:14-15, and Ephesians 4:32.
The ring was not a bribe. I bought this ring months ago before this even happened. Maybe you’re misunderstanding my prayer the ring was bought in July of 2024. The engagement ring was bought with intentions of a marrying, my partner this incident of me cheating on her happened on February 9th.
