1 | Porn in spouse overcome thru fasting? | Galatians | bandaid | 212610 | ||
Some things just make sense. Does God act upon things if we do not ask? Then why pray? I believe Gods will is that we pray for His will to be done, but He wants us to be specific and not just utter up generalities. Should we just pray the Lords will be done everytime we pray and not ask for what we specifically hope for or need? If God lays something on our hearts after vast time in prayer, we should pray that way. Jesus states that the man was freed from lunacy only came about through prayer and fasting. Not just prayer. Was the lunacy because of sin, or a birth defect? Gods will is that we accept the freewill of His blood offering to wash away our sins. That we Glorify Him. That the Truth sets us free. I have to believe that God wants my husband free from porn and glorifying Him with his gifts whether it is with or without me I have already come to accept. That is a simple enough request. Would it be wrong for me to want my husband free for our childrens sake? Or want him free to safely and intimately celebrate our maritual committment? Or more? Knowing Gods will and how to pray more for someone, comes as we pray. If it were a onetime utterance, persistant prayer would be meaningless. The complication isn't so much what is Gods will, but how to pray specifically. After a period of time in prayer, is it Gods will someone doesn't get help, it isn't God's time yet, we haven't prayed rightly, or is freewill the end result? |

Hi Bandaid, I think you meant this for Doc, but you clicked on my post. I'm sure Doc has turned in for the night. Here is something for you to ruminate on until Doc can address your questions. But you may have to repost them to his username.

Thank you, I will do that. Sigh... I appreciate you guys not trying to go over everything I may or may not be doing right, but simply addressing the questions I have. They are difficult ones I have asked of even too busy professors, that is why I am now in a study forum. | ||||||

You are welcome, Take your time and be sure to follow up all the scripture references, read them in context, pray for understanding and be humble before Lord, that He will turn His face toward you and give you peace. And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose. Rom 8:28 |
