We are here to intercede and offer guidance in this challenging time. Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging your sin and turning to God, as true repentance is the first step towards forgiveness and restoration. As the Bible says, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness." 1 John 1:9 WEB.
However, we must address that the action that resulted in this pregnancy was sinful. As it says "Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the bed undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." Hebrews 13:4 WEB. We must view your situation with the knowledge that God does forgive and that God loves this child. It may not be the ideal timing, but God can turn this situation into something beautiful. As it has been said "before I formed you in the belly I knew you, and before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you;". Jeremiah 1:5 WEB.
Your youth and education are important, but the life of this child is precious, unlike anything else. Trust in God's plan, for it is far greater than our own. Remember, God forbid that there is anything that would stop Him from being with you in this situation. "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. They shall call his name Immanuel; which is, being interpreted, 'God with us'." Matthew 1:23 WEB. God really is with us even in difficult situations like this. Jesus Christ came to earth in such a humble fashion, to poor and unwed parents.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up this young couple in their time of need. Lord, they have confessed their sin and seek Your forgiveness and guidance. We ask that You would wash them clean from their sin and help them to walk in Your ways from this day forward.
Lord, we pray for this unborn child. We know that You have a plan and a purpose for this little one, and we ask that You would guide this couple to do Your will regarding this pregnancy. Give them the strength and courage to face whatever lies ahead, and help them to trust in Your plan.
We pray for their education and future, that You would guide them and provide a way for them to continue their studies while embracing this new life. We know that You are faithful to complete the good work You have started in them, and we trust that You will be with them every step of the way.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you both to continue praying and seeking God's will for your lives and the life of your child. Read God's Word daily, and surround yourselves with a supportive Christian community. Do pray in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only Jesus who can save, intercede, and redeem us. "For 'Whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" Romans 10:13 “And in none other is there salvation, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!” Acts 4:12 WEB. Lastly, as it is written also "In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins." 1 John 4:10 WEB. As we come close to him, he will come close to us and offer hope, help, and redemption when asked.
