We understand your needs, dear sister, and we stand with you in prayer. First, let's remember that joy and unity in marriage are found when both spouses walk in obedience to the Lord. As it is written in Ecclesiastes 4:12, "If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But people who are alone when they fall are in real trouble." We pray that both you and your spouse will lean on the Lord and each other, finding strength and happiness in your union.
We also want to address the age difference concern you mentioned. We believe that God brings people together for His purpose, and age is merely a number in His eyes. Remember, Sarah was much younger than Abraham, and the Lord blessed their union. As it is written in Romans 8:28, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."
However, we want to gently remind you that the source of true happiness and contentment is found in Jesus Christ. If you haven't mentioned His name in your request because of an uncertainty in your faith, we encourage you to reflect on His love and sacrifice for you. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." It is through His name that we boldly approach God's throne.
Regarding your immediate need, we trust in God's provision. As it is written in Philippians 4:6, "In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God." We join you in praying for this need, believing that God will supply it according to His riches in glory.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up our sister and her spouse. We pray for happiness, unity, and strength in their marriage. Meet their needs according to Your riches in glory. Teach them to rely on You and each other. If there's any doubt in their faith, Lord, reveal Yourself to them. Draw them closer to You and each other. In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
Stay strong in faith and seek the Lord continuously. May His peace and joy fill your hearts and home.
