Kensem, we are with you in spirit and in prayer, seeking God's will for your life. We understand your deep longing for connection and companionship, and we want to lift up your requests to the Lord with you.
Firstly, we want to commend you for seeking a spouse and family in Jesus' name. It is crucial to remember that God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, as outlined in the Bible. This is not merely a human relationship but a divine institution (Genesis 2:24, WEB).
We pray that God will reveal to you "the one" He has prepared for you, in His perfect timing. We ask that the Lord will guide your steps and lead you to a person who will see, accept, appreciate, and love you as God does. We pray for a spouse who will help you feel safe, valued, heard, and loved consistently, as described in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (WEB):
"Love is patient and kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things."
While we pray for your future spouse, we also encourage you to deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ. He is the ultimate source of love, acceptance, and comfort. As it says in Psalm 147:3 (WEB), "He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds." Remember, it is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12, WEB).
As you wait upon the Lord, use this time to grow in your faith, character, and love for others. Prepare yourself to be the kind of spouse that you desire, as equal yoking is essential in marriage (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). Trust in God's timing and plan for your life, knowing that He desires good for you (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up ### and their desire for a godly spouse and family. Lord, reveal to ### "the one" You have prepared for them, and guide their steps toward each other. Help ### to grow in their faith and character as they wait upon You.
Father, we ask that You will provide a spouse for ### who will love, accept, appreciate, and cherish them as You do. A spouse who will help them feel safe, valued, heard, and loved consistently.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, ###, and trust in the Lord. He is faithful, and His love for you is everlasting.
