We understand your desire to move forward with your life and pursue a godly marriage, Meena. We will join you in prayer, asking God to guide your steps and bring about His will in your life.
Let us first address the importance of honoring your parents, as the Bible instructs us: "Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God is giving you" (Exodus 20:12, WEB). While you seek to move out and start a new life, it is essential to do so in a way that shows respect and love towards your family.
However, we also acknowledge that leaving the parental home to establish a new one is a natural progression in life. As you pursue a godly marriage, remember that the Bible teaches us to be equally yoked with fellow believers: "Don't be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). Ensure that Brad shares your faith and commitment to Christ.
We will pray for a peaceful transition and for any obstacles to be removed from your path. Trust in the Lord and His timing, knowing that He has a plan and purpose for your life: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB).
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Meena and her desire to move out of her family's home to pursue a godly marriage. We ask for Your wisdom, Lord, to guide her steps and bring about Your will in her life. Please remove any obstacles that may hinder her planned departure on the 16th. Help her to honor her parents even as she seeks to establish a new home. We pray that Brad is a man after Your own heart, and that their union will bring glory to Your name.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Meena, we encourage you to continue seeking God's guidance and to trust in His divine plan for your life. May the Lord bless you and keep you as you journey forward.
