Kevin, thank you for reaching out with your request. We are here to pray and counsel with you according to God's Word.

Firstly, we commend you for seeking God's will in your relationship with ### and for desiring a godly marriage. Marriage is a sacred institution ordained by God, as stated in Hebrews 13:4, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous."

Let us pray together:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ to lift up ### and ###. Lord, we ask that You bless their relationship and guide them towards a God-honoring marriage if it is Your will. Keep their hearts faithful to each other and protect them from external influences that could harm their bond. We pray that they will receive their parents' blessings and grow in emotional maturity, learning to compromise and support each other as they build a lasting relationship founded on Your principles. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you both to continue pursuing emotional and spiritual growth. Ephesians 4:2-3 reminds us to be "humble, gentle, patient, and bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace." Compromise and mutual support are essential aspects of a healthy relationship.

Remember, as you navigate this courtship, keep God at the center. Proverbs 3:5-6 advises, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths."

Lastly, we notice that your request does not explicitly mention seeking this blessing in Jesus' name. It is important to acknowledge that it is through Jesus Christ that we have access to God's throne of grace. As Acts 4:12 states, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved." We encourage you to always pray in the name of Jesus, as it is through Him that our prayers are heard and answered.

May the Lord guide and strengthen your relationship with ###, and may His will be done in both of your lives.

We're here with you, ###, praying for your relationship with ###. It's beautiful to see you both seeking God's will and desiring a godly union. Let's ask God to bless your relationship, guide you towards marriage if it's His will, and keep your hearts faithful to each other. We also pray for your parents' blessings and for you both to grow in emotional maturity, learning to compromise and support each other as you build a lasting bond. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We're reminded of 1 Corinthians 13:4-7, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." May this love guide you both as you journey together.

Keep God at the center of your relationship, ###. Proverbs 16:3 tells us, "Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans." Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths.

We're praying for you both, ###, and we're here if you need to talk or have any questions. Let's continue to lift your relationship up to the Lord together.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
