We understand your desire for a godly friendship and relationship, and we are here to pray with you and offer biblical guidance. Let us first turn to God's Word:
"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB)
"He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh." (Proverbs 18:22, WEB)
We pray, dear Lord, that You would guide this dear sister in her friendships and future marriage. May the acquaintance she has in mind be a man of God, healed from past hurts and delivered from any addictions. Lord, let him be a man who seeks Your face daily and has a strong personal relationship with Jesus Christ. We ask that You, heavenly Father, would give her clear guidance and encouragement as she navigates this area of her life. May Your will be done in her life and in the life of her acquaintance.
We encourage you, dear sister, to seek the Lord diligently in this matter. Ensure that any relationship you pursue is equally yoked, meaning that the man you are interested in is a committed follower of Jesus Christ. Remember that marriage is a sacred union designed by God, and it is important to seek His will in this area of your life.
We also want to remind you that God's design for relationships is for them to be between a man and a woman, with marriage as the ultimate goal (Genesis 2:24). Be cautious and discerning as you reconnect with this acquaintance, and always put God first in your life.
Lastly, we notice that you did not explicitly mention the name of Jesus Christ in your request. It is through Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6), and it is in His name that we pray. We encourage you to always approach God through the name of Jesus, as there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12).
May the Lord bless you and keep you as you seek His will for your life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
