Since Jesus cannot provide me a wife, I am willing to leave the faith

[Dexter2020]

Since Jesus cannot provide me a wife, I am willing to leave the faith after so much disappointment and he can be as equally yoked as much as he wanted to and very disappointed and I don't want to be single for life. But so long already yet my prayer is still no answered what should I do. I have prayed but it seems all in vain. Should I leave the faith and find people of another faith just to get the girl I wanted. If this is the final draw I am willing to anyway it did not help either. And kept referring to those passages like Paul to be single which is not what I wanted.

We understand that you are feeling disappointed and disheartened, Dexter2020, but we want to encourage you to stand firm in your faith and remind you of God's promises. It is a common misconception that having Jesus in your life means your life will have no disappointments. Jesus never promised that. In fact, it will have its disappointments as well as times of joy and happiness.

Firstly, we want to address the idea of leaving the faith. We are reminded in Matthew 10:22 WEB, But he who endures to the end will be saved. It is important to remember that our faith is not based on circumstances or getting what we want, but on the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. It is only by his name that we are saved, there is no other name by which we can be saved. Secondly, we want to encourage you to keep trusting God with your desires. Psalm 37:4 WEB says, Delight yourself also in Yahweh, And he will give you the desires of your heart. God knows the deepest desires of your heart, and He cares about them. However, His timing is not always our timing. Wait on Yahweh, and keep his way, And he will exalt you to inherit the land. When the wicked are cut off, you will see it. Psalm 37.34. He has your life planned out for you and it is a good plan.

Regarding marriage, we want to remind you that God's design is for a man and a woman to be joined together in holy matrimony. Genesis 2:24 WEB says, Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh. We encourage you to trust God for the Christian wife that you need. He is the one that can provide you with a spouse that will be equally yoked with you. Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 2 Corinthians 6:14.

We also want to address the idea of pursuing relationships outside of God's will. It is not God's design for us to be with unbelievers or those who do not share our faith. Doing so can lead to compromises in our faith, and even to the sin of fornication or adultery. We are called to be holy and set apart for God's purposes as was already stated.

Lastly, we want to encourage you to keep praying and trusting God. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB. God hears your prayers and He cares about you.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today lifting up Dexter2020. Lord, we ask that You would comfort them and give them peace. Help them to trust in Your timing and Your plan for their life. Give them the strength to endure and to remain faithful to You. Lord, we ask that You would provide Dexter2020 with a godly spouse, a spouse that will be equally yoked with them and that will honor and glorify You. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

We're here with you, Dexter. We understand the struggle and the longing you're feeling. It's okay to feel disappointed, but remember, God's timing is always perfect, even when it doesn't align with ours. We've been praying for you, and we want to encourage you to keep trusting in God's plan for your life.

We've been reminded of Romans 5:3-4, "More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope." God is using this time to build your character and deepen your hope in Him.

We want to encourage you to keep praying and seeking God's will. He sees your heart's desire, and He cares about it. Keep delighting yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart in His perfect timing (Psalm 37:4).

As for finding a godly spouse, we believe that God has someone special in mind for you. Trust Him in this area. He knows what's best for you and will provide in His perfect timing. In the meantime, keep growing in your relationship with Him and surrounding yourself with godly influences.

Let's keep praying together:

"Dear Lord, we come before you today, lifting up Dexter. Lord, we ask that you would comfort him and give him peace. Help him to trust in your timing and your plan for his life. Give him the strength to endure and to remain faithful to you. Lord, we ask that you would provide Dexter with a godly spouse, someone who will be equally yoked with him and who will honor and glorify you. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We are truly honored that you shared your heart with us and allowed us to pray with you concerning your deep desire for a partner in life. We continue to stand with you in prayer, asking God to guide you and provide comfort during this period. Please know that He has a plan and purpose for you, and He cares about every detail of your life.

If you have seen any signs of God working in this area, we would be delighted to hear about it, so please share a praise report with our community. If you are still waiting for an answer, we encourage you to come back to us with a new request. We want to persist in prayer with you and remind you that God is faithful.

As you continue to walk this journey, we pray that you would experience the love of Jesus Christ in a profound way. We talk to you and remind you not allow doubt to overwhelm your heart. You are looking at the passages of Paul as if they are a death sentence. They are not a death sentence. When we effectively surrender to God every aspect of our lives, including surrendering completely to the Father the redemptive stewardship of a mate, that same wave of faith that sustained Jesus during His journey on earth will also sustain us. The source of that faith is described in this way: “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Heb 12:2 KJV). We want you to know that when we surrender to God our faith, we receive the gift of self-control (Gal 5:23). When we receive self-control we actually are expressing the first fruit of this gift, temperance or self restraint. When practiced in faith this self-restraint successfully displaces anxiety, despair, anger, doubt and fear and results in joining God’s peace in sustaining our joy.

We do not know exactly what God may be teaching you during this time, but we want to join you in committing to Him every aspect of our lives, which includes the services of a mate. Together, we want to look at those passages of Paul, not as a death sentence, but as a source of joy. With His help, you can endure, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope. (Rom 5:2 NIV).

It is not too late to cry out to God and say, Ok, Father here am I, do with me what you wish because I trusted you to give your son to die for me. Take His hand and wait. But know this. Jesus died for the church and the Holy Spirit has declared that the Father accepts a substitution for her character, and that the Father has given Jesus to die in her place, so that when He sees you He sees Jesus. Not only that, when we ask forgiveness for our sins, He is also faithful and just to forgive us of our sins and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. Even those sins of turning our back on Him and the church and freely engaging in relationships that ultimately do not fulfill the purpose that he has for a husband and a wife. Pray for restoration and wait. He does not say join with someone else, he says return to me and wait. You may not believe this, but it my belief that so may unbelievers are waiting for a faithful saint to be restored to their first love for their salvation.

Let us remember the words of Jesus, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." (Matthew 7:7-8). Keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking, and trust that God hears your prayers.

We are praying for you to be encouraged to not give up your faith because of this unanswered prayer. We are praying for you to have the patience of Job to be restored because of this time of trial for the sake of the salvation of others and for you to be restored to joy in the Kingdom of Heaven and Earth. We are praying in Jesus Name. And remember as a people of faith we are to join with our brother as a source of encouragement and not as worldly people that may lead us astray and away from the salvation that comes from a life with Jesus. We are praying for you to see His guidance and to be restored in strength to keeping with our faith.
