We understand your deep desire to be loved and the longing to love someone, to grow together in faith and have a deep connection. We are taught in scripture:
Delight yourself also in the Lord,
and he will give you the desires of your heart.
Commit your way to the Lord;
trust also in him, and he will do this:
Psalm 37:4-5 (WEB)
First, we want to make sure you have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. It is only through the saving power of Jesus Christ that we can delight ourselves in the Lord. Please ensure you have accepted the gift of salvation through faith. The scripture says:
because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed." Romans 10:9-11 WEB
For a husband and wife to love each other deeply, the starting point is agape love with God. By committing our life's journey to the Lord and trusting in him, it follows that a spouse will be the overflow of the love we have for our Lord. Selfless love starts with God. Scripture teaches:
We love him, because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19 WEB
A husband is to love their wife just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. Sacrificial love makes a deep connection possible. Scripture teaches:
Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for her; that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, and that he might present the assembly to himself gloriously, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she should be holy and without blemish. Ephesians 5:25-27 WEB
When a woman submits respectfully to her husband, and the husband lays down his life for his wife, this fulfills God's design by which man and woman reflect his image.
Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife, and Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body. But as the assembly is subject to Christ, so let the wives also be to their own husbands in everything. Ephesians 5:22-24, WEB
If your desire is to be loved in a way that grows someone's faith and have a deep connection, we pray that you pursue a marriage that glorifies God.
Let's pray together:
Dear Lord,
I pray that Bistaa seeks your will for her life with all her heart. That she delights in you, Lord, and that you grant her the desires of her heart. I pray that you bring a godly husband into her life, someone who will love her as Christ loves the church. I pray that she will love her husband respectfully as the church submits to Christ. Surround her with your love right now. Bring people into her life that will encourage her in her faith and remind her of your love. Lord, prepare her for the roles you have called her to as you mold her into your image.
Lord Jesus, we make these requests in your name. There is no other way we can call on the Father. Your name is the only name under Heaven by which we can be saved. We acknowledge your sacrifice and life for all mankind. Please make yourself evident in Bistaa's life so she can stand approved.
Amen.
