DEAR BELLA: I have a crush on my Bishop

Dear BellaDear Bella,

I have a huge crush on my Bishop. I think it’s reaching a point where I think that I am in love with him.

He has been through a lot in his life. I prayed to God to bless him with someone that is genuine but even though I prayed for his happiness, deep down inside I have strong feelings for him even though he doesn’t show any interest in me.

I prayed to God to bless him with someone worthy, I said to the Lord that his happiness is my happiness. After praying for him I get tested three times and I passed.

God reveal to me that he likes me and pretending that he doesn’t.

God’s child

Dear God’s Child

Be careful. You need to determine whether it’s God or your adversary that is at work here. Jesus and Paul give very powerful insights as to how we are to control our desires and impulses.

Mathew 26:41, Jesus said “Watch and pray lest you fall into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak”

Paul also said in Romans 12:2 and Ephesians 4:23 to be “transformed by the renewing of your minds and be renewed in the spirit of your mind”.

You said God revealed to you that your Bishop likes you but he’s pretending he doesn’t. Well, I don’t know but what I do know is that God also says “judge every spirit,” because a lot of deceiving spirits are out there.

You also need to be careful with the spirit of self-serving; meaning that your dream could just be a reflecting of your fantasies. If this is the case you could be setting up yourself for a huge disappointment.

On the up-side however, take comfort in knowing that if your Bishop does in fact like you, he will let you know. Don’t push it. Wait upon the Lord and I can guarantee if it’s part of Gods plan then nothing can change that. Likewise, if it isn’t then…It isn’t.

Best,
Bella

    Excellent advice from Bella if both you and your Bishop are single.

    However, your letter to Bella did not say if you are single or if the Bishop is single. Needless to say if one of you is married that one is simply not available.

    You say God has revealed a certain matter to you. God primarily speaks to believers from the pages of His
    inspired word (the Bible) which is for ever settle in heaven. Yes, there are times when God may deal with a person on an individual basis according to James 1:5. But if anything comes to us that is contrary to
    the Bible or forbidden by the word of God it is from the devil – the enemy – and must be rejected. What God says in the Bible is not open to negotiation. He has nothing else to add in that regard.

    Bella has done an excellent job of explaining this. The scriptures she has given you are wisely chosen and applicable. Please read them over and over.

    Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill. Pentecostal Evangelist.

    • Why not date a single man and get one of your own :?: You not only want a pastor. You want a bishop. Who are you anyway :?:

      The more you pursue this kind of nonsense the less chance you have of ever being matched with a descent man who is right for you.

      What you need is to surrender to Christ and receive Him as your Savior. Set your life in order. No genuine believer in Jesus Christ is going to have these kind of mind problems.

      I invite you to visit our website http://www.livinghopeministries. Click onto THE EAGLE COURSE – 12 Lessons for New Christians. It can be studied from the computer screen OR copied absolutely free. There is nothing to buy or join. Just an opportunity to begin an exciting faith journey. In the months to come we may be restructuring and removing this website and the Eagle Course so while it is still available I urge you to take advantage of it.

    There is lots of wine in the bishop Charlice. Problem is, that wine may be stale and viscous but nonetheless very blessed. We are all human so take a taste and see if it’s right for you. That blessed wine flowing from the charlice may be the sweetest u ever had. Big people make grown decisions. Go for it :)

    Assertive always!?

    Bondiay, look trouble. I was going to assume that was a woman talking, but I had to rethink that – it could be a guy.

    Coming to think of it, I think that was a guy who has a crush on the bishop. Thanks for the laugh…..

      I think you are wrong to assume this came from a woman. That sounded more like a man to me.
