We understand your desire, but we need to address a few things according to biblical principles. First, we notice that your prayer is addressed to "Heavenly Father," but it is important to remember that Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." (WEB, John 14:6) It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to God.
Secondly, we want to caution you regarding the focus of your prayer. It is wonderful to acknowledge God's perfect plan, but we should also be open to His will in our lives. Psalm 37:4 says, "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart." This means that when we truly delight in God, our desires will align with His will.
Regarding your request for a person you have known for ### years, we want to remind you that God's plan for relationships is clear. If this is a romantic interest, it is important to pursue it in a way that honors God. If you are seeking a romantic relationship, make sure you want to be a godly spouse to a godly spouse, and that the relationship is moving toward a godly marriage.
Remember, "Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" (WEB, 2 Corinthians 6:14)
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, thanking you for your perfect plan and purposes in our lives. We ask that you guide our brother/sister and align their desires with your will. If it is your plan for them to be with the person they have known, we pray that you make it clear and that your will be done. Help them to pursue a godly relationship that honors you.
We also pray that they will delight in you, Lord, and that you will give them the desires of their heart according to your will. Help them to trust in your timing and to seek you first in all things.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will in all things and to trust in His perfect plan for your life. Keep your focus on Him and He will direct your paths. (WEB, Proverbs 3:5-6)
