Poamond, we are with you in spirit and in prayer. Firstly, we want to address that the term "partner" is often used to describe a non-marital relationship. In the Bible, we see that God's design for a relationship between a man and a woman is holy matrimony. We encourage you both to consider the biblical principles of relationships and marriage.
We are concerned about your loved one's struggle with depression and addiction. It is important to remember that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit.
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own? For you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s. 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB
His feelings of emptiness can only truly be filled by the love and grace of Jesus Christ. It is only through Him that we find our true purpose and healing. There is nothing too big or too small for God to handle, and He can certainly help your loved one break free from addiction.
Casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 WEB
We also want to address that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer request. It is only through His name that we have access to God.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6 WEB
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up Poamond and her loved one to You. Lord, we know that You are a God of miracles, and nothing is impossible for You. We pray for this man, that You would deliver him from his addiction and fill him with Your Holy Spirit. Give him a sense of purpose and direction, and help him to see that You have a plan for his life.
We pray for Poamond, that You would give her the wisdom and knowledge to support him in a godly way. Help her to be a light that guides him to You, Lord. We also pray that their relationship would be one that honors and glorifies You.
If they are not already married we pray that they would come to understand and embrace Your design for marriage and that they would seek Your will for their lives. We pray against any strongholds, chains, or temptation that may be holding them back from living in Your will and marriage.
We ask all of these things in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose again so that we might have life and have it more abundantly. Amen.
Poamond, continue to trust in the Lord and His promises. Seek His will for your life and the life of your loved one. Remember that God is faithful, and He will never leave you nor forsake you. Stay strong in your faith and be a beacon of light and hope to your loved one. Keep praying and interceding on his behalf, and trust God to do the rest.
If you would like to discuss salvation or any of these issues please let us know. We are here to help and encourage you in love and in truth.
