Partner Betrayal

DAY 4 OF 6

God has given us a helper and advocate who serves as our representative and is alive within us. Holy Spirit is our teacher and daily guide, transforming our hearts and beliefs. He is our faithful leader that reveals God's character. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Christ that inhabits our soul, abides in us, and is the living Comforter. Through Jesus finished work on the cross, we are not only saved from hell and become daughters of the King through this function of grace called salvation, but the Holy Spirit empowers and motivates us to properly align our life with the work He is doing within us right now.

As the daughters of the King, we are choosing and committing ourselves to trust Him. Like any relationship, this trust is built and grown through connection. Trust is a firm belief in reliability and truth. Trusting God with your life is about getting to know Him personally. By sitting with Him during this pain, trusting Him, and allowing Him into your space, you open yourself up for His love to pour over you. As you begin to know the Father more intimately and learn how much He loves you, chooses you, and wants what is best for you, your trust in Him grows.

That sense of trust can be shaky in the wake of a betrayal. The inspired Word of God leaves an impression on our souls that gives us genuine understanding and deep assurance. In these moments of surrender and trust, we experience the Lord's comfort. This connection to God's heart reveals that His comfort carries us through and grows our faith to trust Him even more.

Intimacy and connection to God:

  • are motivated by love.
  • involve renewing your mind.
  • require living by the Spirit.
  • include pursuing the heart of God.
  • demand transparent honesty with God.
  • lead to doing what He says.
  • mean trusting and believing His grace, love, and transforming power.

This intimate relationship with God allows us to share our feelings, dreams, fears, and hopes. This close relationship allows us to recognize God's empathetic feedback and responsiveness. We then can perceive the appreciation, affection, understanding, and acceptance that the Holy Spirit offers us in our current situation, where stability can be hard to find. We can trust that through our relationship with Christ we will survive this trauma and live a thriving life rooted in Christ. It's during these deep heart wounds that we have an opportunity to partner with the Holy Spirit to accomplish this life transformation.

This partnership means God and you are working together. That requires you to get comfortable and intimate with God. It's choosing not to distract or cover up the wounds, but to intentionally accept God's invitation to come to Him broken and receive strength from hearing Him speak a word of life into your deepest pain.

Spend some time right now with God:

1. I am dearly loved, understood, and accepted by God. How does this change how I come to and connect to Him?

2. I can be vulnerable before God and share my grief and feelings. What does my being vulnerable before the Lord look like?

About this Plan

Partner Betrayal

Partner betrayal occurs within intimate relationships when your significant other acts out sexually, either once or repetitively, in a mental, emotional, or physical way. This prompts a lasting response that can overwhelm you immediately or over a period of time. Betrayed partners commonly feel isolated and in bewilderment, wondering if anyone understands them. You are not alone! Experience and connect to God's heart through this divine invitation as you seek Him as your Refuge, Good Shepard, and Light to your path.
