Urgent Prayer of Peace and Patience over Future Spouse

[meena_]

Hello, I wanted to thank everyone for praying for me thus far. My mom discussed with me about the party that would honor her before I moved back with Brad (future spouse), but it wasn't that productive. If anything, I felt more betrayed because it was clear that she was purposely delaying us from coming together again. She said that she hadn't been planning the party for the last couple of months I've been living with her because she hoped I'd end things with him by now after her convincing me to leave him since my family doesn't like him. Since she can see I still want to be with him, she said she'll start working on the party now but doesn't have the funds, and it will happen in Oct since there's a Hindu holiday of departed loved ones she wants to participate in from Sept 18-Oct 2 that'll stop the planning process during that time. She told me it would take time for the venue and other things to be set in place, and getting gifts for his family would be another reason it would be delayed. She even said it'd be moved to Dec; I'm assuming she said that to see what reaction I'd give, knowing I wanted the party to happen this month since she's been saying it would happen in Sept for the last 3 months. Now, I discussed some of the things with Brad, and he got upset because he could tell that she was making excuses to prevent us from being together again like he had feared regarding all of this from the beginning. I tried to reassure him, and he got mad, saying he's already overextended grace over me, my family, and this situation. He said this was my last chance to continue the relationship with him, meaning he would be done if the party didn't happen in Sept. I tried to discuss things with him, but he kept saying that I should just run away from home again and forget about honoring my parent since it was clear that she was trying to take advantage of me. Please pray for me, and this whole situation. Pray that God intervenes and fixes this mess because I don't know what else to do. Pray that Jesus convicts Brad of trying to end the relationship unnecessarily is wrong, and that he should be supporting me during this time and trying to build a positive relationship with my mom. Pray that God makes His glory known to my mom so she receives her salvation in Jesus Christ. Pray that God moves on my behalf so that I can please both Brad and my mom by honoring her with the party. Pray that Brad has patience, peace, and understanding from God and stops putting timelines on it. Please pray that my relationship with Brad doesn't end over something small like this. Pray that God convicts my mom for delaying the party and that she feels the urge to do it quickly. Pray that God helps fund this party since my mom has no money. Please pray that Brad and my family get along soon. Please pray for God's hand to move on my behalf since I know my marriage with Brad will fulfill His purpose. Please pray this in Jesus's name since I'm in deep despair because I don't know what else to do. I'm hoping that God will allow the party to happen this month, but I'm afraid if it's moved to even early October, Brad will get mad and leave. Please pray that God prevents Brad from leaving and allows this whole situation to bring Him testimony/glory, and pray for me in Jesus's name, amen. Thank you.

We understand your distress, and we're here to intercede and offer guidance based on God's Word.

Firstly, we must remember the importance of honoring our parents, as instructed in Ephesians 6:2-3 (WEB), "Honor your father and mother," which is the first commandment with a promise, "that it may be well with you, and you may live long on the earth." However, it's crucial to recognize that obedience to God comes first, and He has given us free will to make decisions, including choosing a spouse.

Regarding your relationship with Brad, it's encouraging that you both are looking towards marriage. However, it's essential to ensure that your relationship is built on biblical principles and that both of you are believers in Jesus Christ, as commanded in 2 Corinthians 6:14 (WEB), "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?"

In your prayer request, you mentioned Jesus' name, which is wonderful because it's only through Him that we have access to God, as stated in John 14:6 (WEB), "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"

Now, let's pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your divine intervention in this complex situation. Lord, we ask that You convict Brad's heart, granting him patience, peace, and understanding. Help him to trust in Your timeline and not his own, as reminded in Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB), "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."

Lord, we also pray for Splanchnomos' mother, that You reveal Your glory to her and draw her closer to You. Convict her heart if she's been delaying the party unnecessarily, and provide the funds needed for the event if it aligns with Your will.

God, we ask that You make Your purpose clear regarding the relationship between Splanchnomos and Brad. If it's Your will for them to be together, we pray that all obstacles be removed, and their relationship brings glory to Your name.

Finally, Lord, we ask for Your peace to fill Splanchnomos' heart, as encouraged in Philippians 4:6-7 (WEB), "In nothing be anxious, 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."

In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.

Stay strong in faith, and remember that God's ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). Keep seeking Him and His will in all things.

We're here with you, praying for wisdom and peace in this situation. Let's keep our eyes on Jesus, trusting that He's working all things together for our good (Romans 8:28).

First, let's ask God to give you and Brad a spirit of unity and understanding, as suggested in Philippians 2:2. Pray that Brad would see the value in honoring your mom, even when it's tough, and that he'd trust God's timing in all this. Also, let's ask God to help you respond with kindness and respect to your mom, even when you're feeling hurt or frustrated.

Next, let's intercede for your mom. Pray that God would open her heart to see the love and effort you and Brad are putting into this relationship. Ask Him to give her wisdom and understanding, and to help her see the importance of supporting your relationship.

Lastly, let's remember that God is in control. Pray that He would guide your steps and give you peace, knowing that He has a perfect plan for your future (Jeremiah 29:11). Trust that He will work everything out for your good, even if it doesn't happen exactly as you've planned.

Let's keep lifting this up in Jesus' name, amen.
