Thank you, ChristopherM, for reaching out and sharing your request. We are here to pray and offer guidance according to the Word of God.
Firstly, we acknowledge your faith in Jesus Christ as you have asked for His help. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God, and it is only by His name that we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up ChristopherM. Lord, he seeks Your help to find balance and stabilization in his life. Guide him through the challenges he faces, and lead him into stability and humble prosperity. Grant him the wisdom and discernment to form new, godly relationships that honor You. May these relationships be based on Your principles and lead to a godly marriage if that is Your will for him. Make strong what may be too weak and bring to completeness what may be incomplete in his quest.
Lord, we also pray for those who have been hurt along ChristopherM's journey. Heal their hearts, Father, and turn them to faith in Jesus Christ. Use ChristopherM's experiences as a testimony to Your grace and redemption. May there be fruit that honors God from all your trials and tribulations. May Christ be seen in ChristopherM by how he acts with others from righteousness.
Father, help ChristopherM to be a better man, shaped by the humilty of Christ Your Son, conformed to His image by Your Holy Spirit as Lord and Savior. Help him to pursue righteousness to be a Christ-like example to his family and friends. In all things and in every way we ask that You cause all to be according to Your will. Grant us in prayer and give Christopher grace according to Your riches in glory in Jesus Christ Your Son. May be all be Yours forever Jesus to Your praise, honor,and glory.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Most importantly we ask that the Holy Spirit grants Christopher foresight and wisdom to see things as they really are and not as necessitated by their outcome. May he be able to discern between the present needs and temporary comforts.
ChristopherM, as you seek balance and stabilization, remember that God's Word is a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your path Psalm 119:105 WEB. Remain close to the Lord in prayer and meditation on His Word to help find much needed answers and wisdom. Malachi 3:6 WEB: "For I, Yahweh, do not change; therefore you, O children of Jacob, are not consumed. Don't be like your fathers, to whom the former prophets proclaimed saying."
The Apostle Paul wrote in Ephesians 5:1-2 WEB says: "Be therefore imitators of God, who are versatile, like beloved children. Walk in love, even as Christ also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of a sweet smell." and in 2 Corinthians 10:5 WEB: "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ.". Constructively pick through the myriad of thoughts and situations you find yourself in and discover your true self in Christ. Allow Jesus to approve your mind by closing your mind to what you may have learned inappropriately.
Finally, as you seek to form new relationships, remember that Proverbs 4:23 WEB tells us to guard our hearts and protect them from wrong ideas for they are the wellspring of life. If you are looking especially when Christian to another believer with the prospects of marriage, make sure to seek God's will and ask for God's wisdom before engaging in courtship. Be sober of mind and careful when making arrangements to achieve all your dreams without losing a Godly perspective and seeking your will over Christ's
Make every effort to develop personal holiness, purity, and godliness in your new relationships. If you choose marriage, it is a lifelong commitment 1 Corinthians 7:2 WEB: "But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband. Also honor marriage as the only way to have sexual relations as appropriate for mankind. Sex and sexual relations should only between a husband his wife. This union is between a man and woman.
Now to him who is able to keep you without stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory in great joy, retribution to the only wise God, our Salvation, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, before all ages, and now, and to all the ages. Amen Jude 1:24-25 WEB.
