Kensem, we are here with you in spirit, lifting your requests to our Heavenly Father in Jesus' name. We understand your deep longing for companionship and a family of your own. God has designed us for relationships, and it is natural to desire marriage and family.
Firstly, we commend you for asking for your spouse in Jesus name. Jesus answered, βI am the way, the truth, and the life. There is no one who comes to the Father, except through me (John 14:6 WEB)β It is only through Jesus Christ we can have access to God.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Kensem and their desire for a godly spouse and family. Lord, You know the depths of their heart and the longing they feel. We pray that You will guide them to a person who will see, accept, appreciate, and love them as You do. Grant them a spouse who will be a helper and encourager, someone who will build them up and be a source of safety and consistent love (Proverbs 31:10-12 WEB).
We pray for discernment and patience for Kensem, that they may wait upon Your perfect timing and not settle for less than Your best. Remind them that You are always with them, that they are never alone, for You promise to be a "father of the fatherless, and a judge of the widows, is God in his holy habitation. God sets the lonely in families (Psalm 68:5-6a WEB)."
In the meantime, Lord, help Kensem to grow in their relationship with You. May they find their completeness in You, knowing that You are enough. Help them to become the person and spouse You have called them to be (Psalm 147:3 WEB).
We ask this all in Jesus' name, who taught us to pray saying βOur Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come. May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:9-10 WEB)β.
As you wait upon the Lord, Kensem, continue to trust in Him and His timing. Remember that God is working behind the scenes, preparing your heart and the heart of your future spouse. Be encouraged by these words from Psalm 37:4-5 (WEB): "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this".
Seek to be a blessing in others lives. It is our prayer that God will bless you with a godly spouse, but remember that God may have blessings for you to share with your future spouse that you are receiving now.
