        Guidance to do the will of God.
 
I just recently found out that I am pregnant. This to me is a great joy. But, my fiance of 4 years and I are not married. Recently, my son's teacher (her family goes to my church) found out through my son that I was expecting. She was excited. But, the other day she came up to me and asked me if the reason why my fiance and I couldn't get married was because we couldn't afford it. That is not the reason. It made me think. Then, I talked to my fiance and insisted we get married immediatley. But,our plans were to get married after the baby is born because at this moment I am going to school and in Jan. I will start my nursing studies. The only reason I wanted to get married in Dec (next month) is because I don't want people to talk. I am very involved with my church. But, I feel that even though these people might talk, I should not listen to them. But, to go along with what God wants. My walk with Christ needs work and I feel I can do it. Please pray that God will give me the guidance to do his work. God has bigger plans for me and even though I went against his will, I know that he will help me get back on track. Please pray for my fiance, for God to give him the strength and his word to help him through this. Any words of advice are greatly needed. Thank You

Jennifer- If you love this man and he loves you and you both are in love with each other get married before the child is born. I hope that you and your fiance are equally yoked. Remember that one can not be blessed by God past your last act of disobedience. If you are living or doing anything out of Gods will with your fiance your are in direct disobedience to our Lord God. Disobedience causes your blessing to stop at the point you are disobedient. Once you reconcile and repent your sin then your blessing will begin to work their way to you. It is kind of like watching a video tape, you pause it while watching it. The scene is frozen on the screen you can not watch the rest of the tape until you hit play. Hit play in your life and start walking in the perfect Will of God. He has a plan and a purpose for your life, in Jeremiah 1:5 God tells Jeremiah that He knew him before he was ever formed in his mothers womb. God spoke to the Holy Spirit what Jeremiah was to become in the perfect will of our Father in heaven. God is not a respecter of persons if He did that for Jeremiah He did it for you and for all of us. I hope(excedingly expectant) and I pray to God that you will step into His perfect Will and discover His purpose and His plan for you. Find Christians who you know have very successful marriages and have them mentor you. Remember it is much easier to follow the path of someone who is where you want to be than to blaze a new trail by yourself. In Jesus name let Gods will be done Amen

Dear Jennifer, Hi and God bless you and your family. I once heard a Pastor speak about the importance of marriage before the child, spiritually this gives the child the best of what God has to give the child. This shows the child that you loved him/her enough to give it the best. A home with both parents being married and commited to God and each other as well as sanctifing the union though God is the best thing we can do for our children. God already wants what is best for the child but is held back by the parents actions. When we become one with a mate God sees us as married. Asking Him to bless the union pleases God and is a invitation to God to enter and be an active member of the household. What could be better for any child? May God bless you and your fiance with wisdom and discernment in this and every issue. A sister in Christ.

Hello Jennifer,

My advice to you is to get married. Legitimize your relationship with God and with the legal system. It does not have to be an elaborate marriage requiring a lot of finances.

Not only will you be protecting yourself, you will also be protecting your fiancee and your new child.

I will pray for you,
loving you

Father,

I lift up Jennifer to You. I thank You Lord for this new child that You are giving her. I pray that You give her and her fiancee wisdom and strength and courage to do the right things. I commit both of them and the child into Your loving hands. I know You will provide for them.

In Jesus' Name, Amen
