So I asked god about my future husband

[OMGIHEARTCHRIST]

I asked God about my future husband, and he said I would like at the character, I would know who he was. I asked God to show him in my dreams and I've been having dreams about my pastor's son, Who I do know (he's 1 year older than me) we don't get along that well, So I was a little scared and hoped it meant something else

God verbally spoke to you or you're imagining voices in your head?

When you ask God to show you your husband, maybe you could ask him to whittle your husband out of a block of cheese or have a painting of him show up at the door. These would be much more likely from God than the random dream.

As an aside, if you continue getting messages from God in the way you have been, I'm afraid you're going to wind up making very poor choices for your life and end up disillusioned.

I don't see anything wrong with asking God about your future husband. God has promised to teach us & instruct us in the way we should go, to counsel us & watch over us. (Ps 32:8)

I also don't see anything wrong with what you are hearing God say "I would like at the character, I would know who he was" In John 10 we are told that Jesus calls us by name & we hear His voice. A name is something that identifies an individual, so Jesus speaks to us as individuals & we hear His voice. And I don't see anything unbiblical about what you are hearing Him say.

Where we do need to be careful is with dreams, because they can be a refection of many different things going on in us & our world & they are mostly symbolic. So you seeing the pastor's son may not literally mean he is the person you will marry.

Whilst we can have a strong desire for marriage, it's important that we don't become obsessed with it. Sometimes when we ask God about something, He will speak to us & then there may be a point where He won't say anything further for the time-being, & we just have to trust Himn that He will reveal what we need to know in the proper time.

When my children are giving too much attention to something, I will sometimes re-direct them so they won't become attached to what they are desiring in an unhealthy way.

From your other post & dreams, it seems like there are some fairly serios issues going on in your church. It's possible that the dream may be the Lord asking you to pray about them. So this could be the reason why you are dreaming about your pastor's son.

Be careful with this. There is nothing wrong with asking God about your future husband. But, don't assume that every dream, thought, coincidence that happens in your life is the voice of God. Perhaps, your dream is just a fantasy. Perhaps, it is a fear. Perhaps, it is like the thousands of dreams that I have had in my life that make no sense at all. If it is the voice of God, it will be made clear at the right time. But, bear in mind that very often the answer to prayers like yours is "it's not time for you to know yet." That might very well be the answer to your question.

I agree; it can also turn into an obsession that is not reciprocated. It would be so embarrassing to cling to an idea of one person on a hunch, and find out they weren't interested.

I made that mistake a couple times years ago. One time, the person needed prayer over a major accident, and I was thinking of myself.

Another time, I heard a name, and gagged because it was someone I really disliked. A year later, I met someone with the same name. (-; Who was much, much nicer.

But keep praying, and make God the focus of your goals. It always pays to live for Him first, and let the rest fall into place. When we push hard to make things work, we usually backtrack and take time cleaning up the clutter of our mistakes.

There might be aspects of this person that you could appreciate. You might even find someone else has similar traits but is more interesting to you.

I think it's rare that God tells someone who they must marry, because He wants us to make choices without the robot thing happening. We serve Him, but we are not slaves. He will lead people across our path, for sure, but He does not mandate many romantic relationships.

I would take this with a pinch of salt,this sounds like god to me but ask him to show you in another way. Something that wouldn't happen other wise. God did something kinda like that in my church,and they all said that they knew we needed to hear it.Thanks to this we found the perfect house.The same with my mum and cause of that we saved a lot of money on a car and it was the perfect one for us. Without mum trusting what god told her we would be thousands of pounds poorer and a lot more uncomfortable. There are many more examples of this even in my own life and many have been proven true.
I would pray for guidance and for him to show you in another way. A man in the bible did this to and god showed him in two almost impossible and then went on and I think I'm right in saying that he went on to win a battle or become king. Sorry it's vague.

Love is more about giving, than getting what we want.

When you are in a serious relationship, it will be important to think about them in a different way than you do now.

Now, when you don't know them, it is about wishing and wanting. When you get to know a person, it is crucial to care about what they need, and what their goals are.

When you get to know a person, you learn those goals and differences, and decide whether those will work along with your own goals and interests. Then you make a wise decision, based on the information given (as well as insatiable desperation to have them around).

God can allow sarcasm. Sometimes people you don't like, though, are people you do.

Sometimes by showing you what you do not want, you can figure more into what you do want.

Life should be full of surprises. I do believe if you keep your heart true and really wait and look for the right person you will find them.

Well God didnt tell you to marry him, he just showed him to you.

So its your choice whether you want to pursue him or not, but you know that's Gods pick. Just imagine it like a God dating service.

, but you know that's Gods pick.

Or, it could be just a dream.

Since this was the Pastor's son you can not go to him for counseling. However their must be some godly woman you know who can talk to you. Praying for revelations of a husband needs to be confirmed by at least two godly people before agreement.
Also you will need to remember to seek help with who ever you decide is to be a future husband and go through counseling. Since I do not know your church or pastor I cannot tell you if they are where you should seek help.

God knows the hairs on our heads, the things we're interested in, the towns we plan to move to, the careers we're thinking of pursuing.

He knows two people who might make a compatible couple, and might be happy together. He also knows what tends to break people apart and keep them together.

When people get a premonition, it seems to be a heads-up that there is a great choice in front of them. Pray about it. But be responsible and wise -- don't get carried away with imaginations.
