Fredrik, we are glad you have reached out to us for prayer and we appreciate your desire to find a spouse who aligns with God's will for your life. We will be praying for you. God wants you to live in holiness and with contentment.
We commend you for seeking God's will in this matter. It is crucial to trust in His timing and guidance. As it is written in Psalm 37:4 "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart."
Remember 1 Corinthians 7:39 WEB A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband is dead, she is free to be married to whomever she wants, only in the Lord. This holds true for a man.
First Corinthians 13:4-8 gives us clear characteristics of love, Bible verses
4 Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud,
5 doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;
6 doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails.
You specifically mentioned "Pray in Jesus name." This is the only way we can pray and is good. But we want to clarify something for you just in case.
As we are a Christian Prayer group it is important to know you.
As we pray we must make sure you have accepted JESUS CHRIST as your personal savior. We are a christian group and we only pray to God the FATHER in the name of Jesus Christ. If this describes you, AMEN!. But if not, please repeat these words in your heart.
Lord Jesus, for too long I've kept you out of my life. I know that I am a sinner and that I cannot save myself. No longer will I close the door when I hear you knocking. By faith I gratefully receive your gift of salvation. I am ready to trust you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for coming to earth. I believe you are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Thank you for bearing my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life.Lord Jesus, come in and take control of my life. I ask this in your holy name. AMEN
It is true that in the bible and in our lives God can make great miracles. Here is an example from
2 Kings 4:1-7 WEB which you can read yourself.
Let us pray together.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You lifting up Fredrik from Sweden. We know that tragedies are common to man, God. Because You are good and there is none like you, we pour out our hearts before You, God. Show Fredrik Your ways and Your will for his life. Be with Fredrik who desires a spouse. Reveal to him the woman You have chosen for him, and make a way for them to meet and get to know each other in a godly way as biblical courtship. Help them to recognize each other when they meet regardless of the method and that you would be blessing their future home and filling it with your abundant grace, mercy and love. Protect Fredrik from temptation and help him to walk in purity and holiness.
Gracious God May you strengthen Fredrik stay steadfast in Your promises like:
-Hebrews 10:23 WEB Let's hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful.
-Hebrews 13:5 WEB ...be content with what you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you, neither will I in any way forsake you."
In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior we pray. Amen.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.Php 4:6-7 WEB.
