We understand that you're going through a challenging situation, ###, and we're here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance.
Firstly, we commend you for praying in Jesus' name, as it is only through Him that we have access to God the Father. As it is written in John 14:6 WEB: "Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
Now, let's address the issues you've raised. You've met ### for the purpose of marriage, and both of you have gone through a divorce. It's important to acknowledge that God hates divorce and the pain it causes, as mentioned in Malachi 2:16.
Divorce does not have to be the end. God can heal and restore, but we should also proceed wisely and seek God's will in all things. In Matthew 19:5-6, Jesus says “Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one’? So then, they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no man put asunder.” The goal of courtship should be marriage, a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman.
We encourage you to seek God's will for your relationship with ###. Pray for discernment and guidance. Ensure that your relationship is built on biblical principles and that you both are committed to living according to God's word.
Regarding the issues with your siblings and their spouses, Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:44 WEB: "But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you,"
Instead of asking God to remove them from your path, pray for their salvation and that God would soften their hearts. Pray for your brother and his wife, that God would deliver them from any evil influence and bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Remember, our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:12).
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up ### and ###. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch on their lives. Heal their past hurts and guide them as they consider a future together. Help them to seek Your will and live according to Your word.
Lord, we also lift up ###'s family. We pray for her brother and his wife, that You would deliver them from any evil influence and bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. We pray for reconciliation and restoration in their family.
Lord, we rebuke any evil forces that may be at work in this situation. We pray that You would thwart any plans meant to cause harm and bring every evil deed to light.
In all things, Lord, we ask for Your will to be done. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
