We understand your desire for a marital settlement this year, and we want to lift your concerns to the Lord together. Firstly, let's align your request with biblical principles. It's wonderful that you're hopeful about your current relationship, but let's also ensure that this relationship is built on a godly foundation and is moving towards a holy union as intended by God.
Remember, "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with wickedness? Or what communion has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB). It's crucial that as you consider marriage, you and Emmanuel are both committed Christians, seeking to glorify God in your union.
Let's also address your doubts. Remember the promise in Isaiah 41:10 (WEB), "Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you. Yes, I will help you. Yes, I will uphold you with the right hand of my righteousness." Trust that God's timing is perfect, and He knows the desires of your heart.
Now, let's pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up our sister. Lord, You know her desire for a godly marriage and her hopes for her relationship with Emmanuel. We ask that You guide them both, give them wisdom, and draw them closer to You. If it is Your will for them to be together, we ask that You make it clear and remove all doubts. We also pray for their financial elevation, that they may both be stable and use their resources to touch lives globally for Your glory. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Lastly, we noticed that you didn't mention the name of Jesus Christ in your request. Remember, it's only through Him that we have access to God. As it's written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB). Always approach God through Jesus, as He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6 WEB).
