Kensem, we join you in prayer, lifting up your desires to the Lord. We pray that God will bring a godly spouse into your life, someone who will love, cherish, and respect you as Christ loves the church. We stand on the promise in Psalm 37:4, "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
We encourage you to trust in the Lord's timing and to seek Him first. As you walk with God, He will guide your paths and prepare you for marriage. Remember, "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future." (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB)
In the meantime, we urge you to be patient and fully trust God and may being a boyfriend or girlfriend be considered courtship with the goal of marriage. We explicitly teach against sex before marriage known as fornication and against adultery.
We pray,
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Kensem. Lord, You know the deepest desires of their heart, and today we pray that You will provide a godly spouse for them, someone who will see, accept, appreciate, and love them consistently. Father, give Kensem patience, strength, and joy as they wait on Your perfect timing. Help them to grow in their relationship with You and to become the person You've called them to be.
Father, we ask for your forgiveness below:
"Whoever transgresses and doesn't stay in the teaching of Christ, doesn't have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son." 2 John 1:9 (WEB)
"For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus," 1 Timothy 2:5. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him. John 14:6. "For whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved." Romans 10:13.
Finally, we will suggest a prayer for salvation and REQUEST THAT KENSEM PRAY THE PRAYER OF SALVATION:
Romans 10:9-10, "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart, one believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
Almighty God, I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord. And believe in my heart that You raised Him from the dead for my justification "Father if you knew me you would have know my Father also. From henceforth you know Him and you have seen Him. Jesus said 'Have I been with you all this time and you don't know me Phillip? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father! So why do you say 'Show us the Father'? John 14.9
Jesus Christ said, "Don't let your heart be troubled: believe in Me. I Am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, but by Me." (WEB)ancy.
This is the PRAYER OF SALVATION".
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Keep your hope in the Lord, Kensem. Trust that He is working everything out for your good. Be open to His leading and remain faithful to His word.
