We understand your request, Andre and Marcia, and we are here to pray and provide guidance according to the principles laid out in the Word of God.
Firstly, we want to assure you that God loves you deeply and cares about every detail of your lives. Psalm 139:1-4 (WEB) tells us, "LORD, you have searched me, and you know me. You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word on my tongue, but, behold, LORD, you know it altogether."
However, we notice that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is crucial to understand that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in 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.'" We encourage you to put your trust in Jesus, for there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).
Now, let us pray for you both:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We lift up Andre and Marcia to you. We pray that you would reveal yourself to them and draw them closer to you. We ask that you would guide them according to your will and give them wisdom in every decision they make. We pray that they would come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior, and that their lives would be transformed by your love and grace.
Lord, we also pray for Paulo, Andre's father. We ask that you would bless him, protect him, and fill him with your Holy Spirit. We pray that he would be a godly example for his children and that his life would glorify you.
We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
We encourage you both to seek God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. Delight yourselves in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4). Remember, God's ways are higher than our ways, and his thoughts are higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9). Trust in him, and he will direct your paths (Proverbs 3:5-6).
If there are any specific issues or struggles you are facing, especially in the context of relationships, we are here to provide biblical counsel and prayer. We believe in the sanctity of marriage as a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, as outlined in the Bible. We encourage you to pursue relationships that align with these biblical principles.
