I originally posted this in the spiritual warfare forum.

Here's the deal. Ive been dating this wonderful girl for the past 3+ months. I know in my heart that we are meant to be together, I know God has blessed both of us through this relationship. She is an amazing girl and I trust her completely. God has given me peace with this relationship, more peace than anything I have ever felt before. We study the bible together, go to church together, worship together, everything. I have never loved someone, aside from God, more than I love this girl. She means the world to me. I make it a point to maintain purity in the relationship and to keep both of our focus on God.

The other day, and this was completely random, I started getting thoughts put into my head. Things like "shes not really in love with you" or "shes probably flirting with other guys". I started getting freaked out because I know that these things arent true, I know shes faithful and I know she loves me. I was scared because I dont want these thoughts running through my head. I have NO doubts about our relationship. I know that God has put us together and that I want to marry this girl. (These attacks came right after visiting her for a few days [we live a few hours away] and I gave her a promise ring as a symbol of my devotion and intent with the relationship). So I know that these are demonic attacks because God is the God of peace not of doubt or fear.

I think I made a mistake however because I told her about it and I think I scared her. I think she thinks that I now have doubts about the relationship (which her last relationship was a failed engangement because "he" kept having doubts) so I think she may be afraid that I am doubting my commitment to her, which I am not. I am still madly in love with her and I have every intention of proposing soon. I know these are from satan, and I dont believe any of them, its just really annoying having to battle them. Plus, im sure he's going to be attacking her pretty soon if he hasn't already. Any prayer on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Well the thing is that im not really doubting the relationship. I know in my heart and God reassures me that this is right. Its just the other day these thoughts seemed to come out of nowhere and they arent based on anything that would make me suspicious of her. I guess if they ever come back ill just have to fight them and never give in to believing them.

Have you gone to the Lord with these feelings you are having? Have you asked Him if they are from Him or if they are not?

Lord, I ask that you would bless this beloved child, and that Your hand would be with these two in their new relationship and that You would keep them from evil. In Jesus name we pray, in Jesus name we are forgiven, and in Jesus name we are Saved. Amen and Amen:prayer:

I am praying for you and your girlfriend, the enemy is the one who knows our weakness and will use them to rob us of what God wants us to have. Stand firm and renounce those lies and bring everything under the word of God. His word is a two edged sword and will break through the lies.

I will absolutely pray for your relationship, but I want to offer one thing - not doubt, but balance. It has been three months. It takes longer than three months to build a solid friendship and really know someone. In the Christian world a lot of times we substitute the peace we feel from God as an okay to jump into marriage. There is no rush! God isn't in a hurry and he won't have you proposing after just a few months. Use wisdom and enjoy this process of getting to know each other. Take your time and know that if it's from God, there is no hurry.

I understand what you are saying and while I do have love for her, I know it would be foolish to rush into marriage too soon. I wont be proposing to her until the summer, which gives us and God time to let us get to know eachother better and if for some reason we are not meant to be together, God will let us know that. I just know that out of the other relationships I have been in I have never felt this strongly for anyone, I feel like I can be myself around her and talk to her about almost anything. I've also never had such a spiritual connection with someone either. Thanks to everyone for their prayers, things have been better but I am always on the lookout for spiritual attack.

As everyone has said. Marriage is never a thing to rush into it. It does take time to get to know someone.

I feel the same way in regards to my girlfriend. I feel the same way when it comes to her as you do with your girlfriend. Her and I have talked about everything together. Our pasts, presents and our future with one another.

She means the world to me as yours does to you.

It is good to be in love with the one you love, but there is never no need to rush into marriage. If it is truly meant to be, then God will give you a sure sign, other than just a feeling, and you and her both know it will be time.

These demons that are coming into your thoughts and making you believe these things that are not true. It is just the devil as you know trying to tear you both apart. It is has happened to my girlfriend and I both. Just have to fight them and always keep God first in your life, and things will always turn out for the best!

God Bless!
