RE: prayer request to find soulmate and life partner - Guest - 07-18-2012 02:32 PM (07-18-2012 01:21 PM)Guest Wrote: prayer request to find soulmate and life partner The common idea of a “soul mate” is that for every person, there is another person who is a “perfect fit,” and if you marry anyone other than this soul mate, you will never be happy. Is this concept of a soul mate biblical? No, it is not. The soul mate concept is often used as an excuse for divorce. People who are unhappy in their marriage sometimes claim that they did not marry their soul mate and therefore should divorce and begin the search for their true soul mate. This is nothing more than an excuse, a blatantly unbiblical excuse. If you are married, the person you are married to is your soul mate. Mark 10:7-9 declares, “A man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.” A husband and wife are “united,” “one flesh,” “no longer two, but one,” and “joined together,” i.e., soul mates. A marriage may not be as unified and joyous as a couple wishes it to be. A husband and wife may not have the physical, emotional, and spiritual unity that they desire. But even in this instance, the husband and wife are still soul mates. A couple in such a situation needs to work on developing true “soul mate” intimacy. By obeying what the Bible teaches about marriage (Ephesians 5:22-33), a couple can develop the intimacy, love, and commitment that being “one flesh” soul mates entails. If you are married, you are married to your soul mate. No matter how disharmonious a marriage is, God can bring healing, forgiveness, restoration, and true marital love and harmony. Is it possible to marry the wrong person? If we give ourselves to God and seek His guidance, He promises to direct us: “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight” (Proverbs 3:5-6). The implication of Proverbs 3:5-6 is that if you are not trusting in the Lord with all your heart, and are leaning on your own understanding, you can go the wrong direction. Yes, it is possible, in a time of disobedience and lack of close fellowship with God, to marry someone whom He did not desire you to marry. Even in such an instance, though, God is sovereign and in control. Even if a marriage was not God’s desire, it is still within His sovereign will and plan. God hates divorce (Malachi 2:16), and “marrying the wrong person” is never presented in the Bible as grounds for divorce. The claim “I married the wrong person and will never be happy unless I find my true soul mate” is unbiblical in two respects. First, it is a claim that your wrong decision has overridden God’s will and destroyed His plan. Second, it is a claim that God is not capable of making a struggling marriage happy, unified, and successful. Nothing we do can disrupt God’s sovereign will. God can take any two people, no matter how mismatched, and mold them into two people who are perfect for each other. If we maintain close fellowship with God, He will lead us and guide us. If a person is walking with the Lord and truly seeking His will, God will lead that person to the spouse He intends. God will lead us to our “soul mate” if we submit to Him and follow Him. However, being soul mates is both a position and a practice. A husband and wife are soul mates in that they are “one flesh,” spiritually, physically, and emotionally united to each other. In practice, though, there is a process of taking what a couple is, soul mates, and making that a day-by-day reality. True soul mate oneness is only possible by implementing the biblical pattern of marriage. RE: prayer request to find soulmate and life partner - Guest - 07-19-2012 08:35 AM Please let roy be my lifetime partner. He is the one guy I've been searching for everything a real man should have. Please have him call me tomorrow. Please lord, I've been too lonely and depressed. Don't know what to do with my life anymore. Thank you RE: prayer request to find soulmate and life partner - Guest - 07-23-2012 12:52 AM I met a man online in November 2011.We talked everyday up until June 28. I felt closer to him than most people I have known for years. We talked about everything including God. There wasn't anything we couldn't talk about. I had trouble sleeping at night and he would sleep on the phone with me for some comfort so I would fall asleep. I am sending out a prayer request because I really miss my friend. It is killing me inside because I don't know what happened to him. I pray that he is fine and will come back into my life if it is God's will.

REPENT IN JESUS' NAME. SURRENDER ALL TO GOD THE FATHER. THESE ARE ALL SELFISH PRAYER REQUESTS ON THIS FORUM. IF YOU CAN'T PRAY FOR MORE THAN 5 MINUTES, WHY WOULD YOU EXPECT GOD TO ANSWER YOUR SELFISH PRAYER REQUESTS. YOU'RE NOT REALLY PRAYING YOURSELF, YOU JUST WANTS SOMEONE ELSE TO PRAY FOR YOU AND WORST OF ALL WHEN A SPIRIT FILLED PRAYER WARRIOR PRAYS YOU STILL DON'T BELIEVE. PITIFUL. YOU WILL GO AROUND THE MOUNTAIN FOR 40 YEARS. BTW, CHRIS8 IS NOT REALLY A SPIRIT FILLED PRAYER WARRIOR. YOU NOTICED HIS PRAYERS TO EVERYONE? THEY'RE ALL THE SAME. IT'S CUT AND PASTE AND JUST CHANGE THE NAME. DO YOU CALL THIS TYPE OF PRAYER FROM THE HEART?
