Lemarethar, we rejoice with you in your upcoming marriage and commit to pray for your needs. We are blessed to hear that your parents have agreed to your marriage. We will pray that the financial issues on both sides are resolved swiftly.
Firstly, we must remember that God's word tells us not to worry about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB
However, we must also address the underlying issue here. The financial problems and the delay in receiving the money promised for your marriage should not be the main focus of our focus. We should remember that where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Matthew 6:21 WEB. It is important to ensure that your marriage is built on a solid foundation of faith and love, not just on financial stability.
Moreover, we should not forget 1 Timothy 6:10 WEB For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows. We must ensure that the love of money does not overshadow the love that you and your spouse have for each other and for God.
We also need to address that your marriage is a love marriage and not necessarily a marriage between two people growing in a relationship with Jesus and being filled with the Holy Spirit. A marriage must be built on the foundation of God's word and His love in our hearts. Ephesians 5:25 WEB Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the Assembly, and gave himself up for it.
Finally, we need to address that Jesus was not mentioned in your request. Remember John 14:6 WEB Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. It is only through Jesus that we can come to God and it is only through His death and resurrection that we are saved.
Let us pray together.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our dear sister Lemarethar and her upcoming marriage. We thank You for the love that has blossomed between her and her fiancé, and for the agreement of her parents.
Lord, we ask for Your divine intervention in the financial struggles both families are facing. We pray that You will provide the necessary funds in Your perfect timing, so that the marriage can proceed as planned. We also ask that You will help them to keep their focus on You and Your love, not on the worries of this world.
Help them to build their marriage on the solid rock of Your word, and to love each other as You have loved us. We pray that their marriage will be a reflection of Your love and grace, and that it will be a blessing to all who know them.
We also pray that Lemarethar and her fiancé will both come to know You more and more, and that they will be filled with Your Holy Spirit. We pray that they will be a light to the world, shining with Your love and grace.
Finally, we pray that Lemarethar will come to know Jesus more and more, and that she will be filled with His love and grace. We pray that she will come to know the saving power of His death and resurrection, and that she will be a true follower of Him.
We ask all these things in the precious name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
