March 4, 2017 at 6:23 amI am requesting prayer for my daughter to have the strength and fortitude to stop seeing a young man that she is not allowed to date. He is dangerous business and she has fallen for him. Please pray that they will feel inspired to let each other go their separate ways.

God bless you.

Thank you for asking for pray in this area.
Smile! You are not alone, Sister.
We’ve have a daughter also. She is getting her doctorate. She was very interested and attached to a young man that she met while in undergraduate school. (They both went to the same undergraduate school.) We, maybe for our own personal reasons, did not want her to get attached to anyone because “we” had goals for her to go straight through undergraduate to doctoral school without the interference of a spouse’s demand and expectations or the daily demands of children. Ha ha ha!
God does not want robots. He does not threaten us with bolts of lightening if we don’t do what He wants us to do. Ha ha! Thank you Jesus.
God designed us to have emotions. There is nothing wrong with that; it is God plan. Emotions have their place at the appropriate time.
Curious…You do not state how old your daughter is. I assuming that she is young because you mentioned a young man. I maybe wrong. Forgive me if I am. Consequently, am a writing my response at the position that they are under eighteen.
You stated, “I am requesting prayer for my daughter to have the strength and fortitude to stop seeing a young man that she is not allowed to date. He is dangerous business and she has fallen for him. Please pray that they will feel inspired to let each other go their separate ways. ”
Nagging, threatening, manipulating does not work. The inspiration needs to come from the Lord. Yes, God is the answer. They, within their flesh, will not be inspired to do anything other than what the flesh wants.
I pray that your daughter will repent from her rebellious state and humble herself; “Yes,” repent and ask God to take full control over her life …forever.
First and foremost, I pray that you will be the example of a Titus and a Proverbial woman that your daughter sees and experiences daily. I also pray that the Lord will have Christ following young ladies to become a part of her life and she will open up to them to receive Christ wisdom and mature into a fine young lady.
I will also suggest that you both obtain some professional Christian counseling together to share your concerns calmly, effectively and honestly with love and really listen to what she feels that she is lacking in her life. Find out what she needs. And, most importantly, let her know that you love her even through this difficult time in her life even if you don’t fully understand what all she is going through. Remember, she may not have the language to express her thoughts; a professional counselor will give her the vocabulary that she needs to be able to articulate her thoughts and feelings. Also, if the young man is underage, a counselor maybe able to give you steps to protect your daughter from his influence if she is a minor. You do have leverage, if she is a minor.
My best to you, your daughter and your relationship together.
Sincerely,
Kathy
P.S. My daughter is going into her last year of her doctorate and is very focused and excited about finishing. 🙂 She is currently in Tennessee and the young man is currently in Maine. 🙂
Love youmatthew.ennorPrayers: 50Requests: 2
March 5, 2017 at 8:47 amSister Dorian, I’m praying for the young man. I pray that the Good Lord will take a lead in his life and direct him in the ways of our Father so that you will be able to welcome him into your family as a good and suitable man for your daughter to date.

March 5, 2017 at 2:29 pmI pray that the Lord may reveal to your daughter through someone or through a dream of how dangerous this man is . The Lord has done it for a pastor ‘s daughter who had tried to rebel against her parents . God supernaturally gave her dream , the girl told her parents and now ministers to other young girls that seem to revel .
God works on mighty ways . Trust that He will make a way if escape .
Stay strong in Christ
Sheila

March 5, 2017 at 11:03 pmDear DAB Family,
Thank you for your considerate insights and prayer on behalf of my 15 year old daughter. This mission of mine, to get my children through these roller coaster times safely and without major regrets is not an easy task. I pray that the Lord will guide my daughter to make wise choices, and trust in my counsel, that the boy will make good use of his opportunities, seek the Lord’s will and desire for him, and that he will turn his attention away from my daughter. He said he would respect my wishes, but wanted to meet with me. I said I would need the weekend to consider, and would have to bring my husband into the discussion. Less than twelve short hours later he tried to go around our agreement by trying contact her (yesterday).soundyaaPrayers: 3085Requests: 12
March 5, 2017 at 11:47 pmDear Dorian,
I pray that you would be able to see the purity of his plans, I pray that God would open your eyes if they are in pure or if they would bring harm to your daughter. I will pray for when you meet that, if it is Gods will that the meeting would give you a sense of peace. However, I pray also that your husband would know in his spirit from the meeting if something was wrong and this was not the path he wanted. I pray that your daughter would see all your actions are for her good. In Jesus name I pray.jtylerk9Prayers: 1512Requests: 7

March 7, 2017 at 9:51 pmThank you all for your prayers for my dear daughter. She has a generous soul, and from the age of two, I was aware of how she always saw the good and the beauty in people, and I knew this was a gift from God. One of many examples is when we saw a large woman in skimpy stretchy attire with much exposed, wearing too much makeup, clumpy heels, glittery jewelry, and a feathery boa. As she walked past my daughter exclaimed Mama, did you see that woman? Isn’t she beautiful! Right then I knew she saw her through God’s eyes.
I know that Heavenly Father loves this boy that has captured my daughter’s interest, but I also know he has a violent past which includes a serious assault. I have always promised the Lord that I will do all that is in my power to keep my kids safe and to raise them up safely, and hopefully with no big regrets, and have asked Him to do the rest. I will be especially vigilant in my duty, and I greatly appreciate your prayer for her and for the boy. May his future be bright, and may he turn his interest away from my daughter. May my daughter develop a stronger sense of discernment. 🙏 In Jesus ‘ name, AmenSheilaTPrayers: 2920Requests: 24
March 7, 2017 at 9:58 pmAmen !! Standing in agreement. Please be sure to put in a praise report once your daughter gets Mr. Right. We need to give glory to God when he answers us 🙂
