SOMETIMES, SAYING “NO” IS NOT A LACK OF FAITH—IT'S SIMPLY BEING HONEST ABOUT WHERE YOU ARE IN LIFE. ❤️
A pastor called me and told me the man I was rejecting was my future husband. This is what actually happened. 👀
Last year, a man got my number because he had bought supplements from me. After some time, he called me and told me he wanted to marry me.
He kept talking about how his family wanted him to get married and how he felt I was suitable for him.
But honestly, I wasn't ready.
So I politely told him, “I'm not ready for marriage.” I didn't even tell him I was one of Jehovah's Witnesses at the time. I simply told him I wasn't interested.
Then, just a few hours later, I received another phone call.
The man introduced himself as a pastor.
We exchanged pleasantries, and then he started telling me that he had dreamed about me getting married around December.
This was around July.
He started saying all sorts of things about my future and trying to convince me that what he saw in the dream was going to happen.
I was honestly just smiling because I didn't believe him.
He kept trying.
And trying.
If I had been a member of his church and already believed that pastors could receive revelations about my future, honestly, I might have fallen for it.
But eventually, he asked me what religion I belonged to.
I told him, “I'm one of Jehovah's Witnesses.”
The change in his attitude was immediate.
The sweet, gentle pastor I had been speaking with suddenly became completely different.
He started talking about Jehovah's Witnesses, especially how our sisters supposedly don't get married because they're waiting for another Witness to marry them.
He even started insulting me.
And I remember thinking:
“Wait… wasn't this the same man who was just telling me that God had shown him my future?”
But there was something I didn't know at the time.
The man who had asked me to marry him had actually paid this pastor to do all of this.
So the “dream,” the prophecy, and all those convincing words weren't some revelation from God.
It was an attempt to influence my decision.
And honestly, this experience made me appreciate Bible truth even more.
Because there are people who genuinely believe when someone says, “God told me…” And some can make very serious life decisions based on it.
Marriage is too important to enter because someone claims to have seen your future in a dream.
Test what you hear against God's Word. Don't let someone's title, confidence, dream, or so-called prophecy replace your own Bible-trained judgment.
That experience taught me something I'll never forget:
Not every spiritual-sounding message comes from God. 🤍
