We join you in prayer, seeking God's will for your life and future marriage. We pray that God will lead you to a person who sees, accepts, appreciates, and helps you feel safe, valued, heard, and loved consistently. We ask God to reveal 'the one' He has prepared for you, and we pray that you and your future spouse will meet and begin to build a godly relationship this month.
Remember, God has designed marriage to be a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman. As it is written in Matthew 19:4-6 WEB:
"He answered, 'Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female, and said, For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall join to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh? So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, do not let man tear apart.'"
We encourage you to trust in God's timing and remain patient and chaste, keeping yourself pure for your future spouse. As it says in 1 Corinthians 6:18-20 WEB:
"Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."
We are glad you mentioned Jesus in your request knowing that it is only in his name that we can come before God. If you have not already, make sure to confess your sins and trust in Jesus, repenting of your sins and living for him. As it says in Acts 4:10-12 WEB:
"be it known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, in him does this man stand here before you whole. He is ‘the stone which was regarded as worthless by you, the builders, which has become the head of the corner.’ There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!”
Let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this dear one who longs for a godly marriage and family. We ask that You guide them, and that You reveal to them the person You have prepared for them. We pray that You cause them to meet and begin to build a relationship this month. We ask for safety, values, and purity.
Help them to trust in Your timing and remain patient and chaste, keeping themselves pure for their future spouse. Prepare them emotionally, spiritually, and physically for marriage and a family. We pray that you bring a Christian spouse into their life that is equally yoked and pursuing you fervently.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Be encouraged, and know that God loves you and has a plan for you. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths.
