Aquila, those spirits will not leave if you're living in sin with your fiance.

Another reason to let go of the relationship

Amen, and very true. And thank you. We do quite well, all things considered. Most of her things are at her mom and dad's right down the street. However, although she technically lives with her parents right now, she is at my house most of the time. Keep us in prayer. It's challenging seeing that we've both experienced marriage, divorce, and have children.

There are various opinions on this topic.

I was taught that just because a couple might have sinned in their relationship, or be living in a sinful situation, it doesn't mean that they should just break up. In fact, Paul states:

1 Corinthians 7:8-9 (ESV)
8 To the unmarried and the widows I say that it is good for them to remain single as I am. 9 But if they cannot exercise self-control, they should marry. For it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

Couples and/or individuals who find it hard to have self-control concerning their sexual needs are admonished to marry. Not only for the sake of personal sanctification, but to increase the power of their witness, and to provide a more stable home. Of course, this isn't saying that one should only marry for this reason. However, it is a key indicator that one is intended to marry.

Just something I was taught in church. But this an entirely different subject.

A few days ago we held a prayer meeting. We opened in worship and praise. Then we went from room to room rebuking and casting out any demonic entity. We anointed door posts etc. declaring the LORD's authority in the home. We didn't have any manifestations or resistance. Since then things have been very peaceful. However, we're still on the look out for any negative spiritual activity.
