1 | need scripture on discerning motives.... | Ps 16:7 | myah | 21938 | ||
Is there any scripture I can read daily to help strengthen discernment and wisdom in me that will keep married men, engaged men, and men with girlfriends away from me? I am single and I've been praying and I've been fasting for almost 2 weeks now on removing this cycle that continues to follow me. The cycle is that men always approach me to get to know me in an inappropriate way when they have wives and/or girlfriends. Some tell me they have significant others, many don't. I've been trying to do this all by myself but do I need to step up and ask my pastor and the intercessor's to pray over me and help deliver me from this? whatever I'm doing is not working.This just doesn't happen on the street. This happens in my church also. I'm not doing anything to provoke this, they approach me. I'm at my breaking point and this is taking a toll on my self esteem because I'm tired of people seeing as second, or as the last fling. I want to be seen just like they see their wives, girlfriends, and fiance's. I want to be looked at as wife material but I can't seem to get that respect because everyone is seeing me as the perfect woman to be the other woman. I've even thought about ending this fast because I feel I'm not doing it right. PLEASE help me with some scripture concerning deliverance, wisdom. discernment. | ||||||

Scripture ... Psa 16:7; Pro 11:14, 15:22, 27:9 Myah, welcome to the forum. Know that I am doing this in love and trying not to hurt you. This is a very difficult question. I prayed before I answered, because I think this needs to be handled by your pastor or someone there who has the gift of discernment. Here are some Bible verses: -Psa 16:7 "I will bless the LORD who has counseled me; indeed, my mind instructs me in the night." ... if you haven't make it a matter of prayer, at night. Pro 11:14 Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory. ... ask your pastor and others what they see in you. Pro 15:22 "Without consultation, plans are frustrated, but with many counselors they succeed." ... you do need a plan what to do, including how to rebuff men. Pro 27:9 "Oil and perfume make the heart glad, So a man's counsel is sweet to his friend." ... trust your friends and ask them. I pray that all goes well with you and hope this helps, Searcher |

Myah, Since you are single, you will be approached. I wouldn't give you advice because this is a delicate subject. But I will share with you the experience of myself and other friends. We talked with an older woman in the Church that is known as a Spiritual Mother. She told us to: Matthew 6:33 " Seek first the Kingdom of GOD and all HIS righteousness and then all the things we were looking for would come to us. Then she told us Proverbs 18:22 that the man who findeth a good wife. Then she told us to Philippians 4:7-9, Whatsoever things are True, Honest, just, Lovely, Pure and of good report, Think on those things! We got so busy in our Pray life and Bible study, trying to find out what GOD's favorite things are and what would Please HIM the most and how to exercise that muscle of Faith to receive the fullness of GOD's annointing, the men and women saw and RESPECTED that Anointing! The men in the street added a "MAM" to that hello, and so far GOD has Blessed two of us with husbands. And I wasn't a "Spring chicken" when I got married, either. So wait on GOD. Put HIM first. Those men who are improper, ignore them to shame. Find you an older woman to Pray with and receive counsel, if no one is available to fit that bill, ask GOD to bring someone in your life with Wisdom and Compassion. Since this is also an issue of the flesh, I can't see you being counseled by a man. I hope the above Scriptures are a Blessing to you and also 2Corinthians Chapter4. Especially verses 7thru 9. You'd be surprise how our outward expression changes when our inward impression changes. May GOD continue to richly Bless you and Keep you in HIS care. |
