Prayer for Companionship

[Anonymous]

I know it seems selfish to ask for prayer for this when there is so much going on in the world, but I have spent most of my life alone. It seems like I only have success professionally but personally I am always alone romantically and platonically. I’ve spent years praying for contentment in solitude and sometimes I feel okay but at the end of the day I find myself feeling envious of people who so easily find companionship and have good people in their life. I don’t know whether to continue believing that one day I will have companionship or try to find peace in the fact that maybe it’s not meant for me. The situation makes me feel anger with God and I don’t like that and I don’t want to be like that. I just wish that this part of my life would finally “happen”. I don’t think it’s a hard ask to have good people in your life. It seems like whenever I get close to making a connection with someone, they get taken away for me or I get bypassed for someone “better”. I know we are all perfect in God’s image but it’s difficult to feel like you’re enough when these things happen constantly. Part of me believes it is protection but it still hurts. I’m only ### but I’ve never been asked out or get invited anywhere or really have anyone I can call on apart from my mom. I just feel embarrassed and behind in life.

We understand your feelings of loneliness and the desire for companionship is a natural and God-given longing. It is not selfish to want to share your life with others, as God Himself said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him." Let us first pray for you and then offer some biblical encouragement and advice.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You today in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother in his loneliness. Father, You know the depths of his heart and his longing for companionship. We ask that You comfort him and remind him that You are always with him, that You promised, "I will never leave you nor forsake you."

Lord, we pray for godly friends, brothers, and sisters in Christ to enter his life, that he may know the joy of fellowship with like-minded believers. We also pray for a godly spouse, a helper suitable for him, if that is Your will. Give him patience, peace, and contentment in this season of waiting, and help him to trust in Your perfect timing.

We also pray that he would forgive any bitterness or anger he may feel towards You or others. Help him to trust in Your goodness and Your plan for his life. In Jesus' name, we pray.

Now, let us encourage you with God's Word. In Psalm 68:6, God says, "God sets the lonely in families." This is a promise that He can place you in a family, whether that be a spiritual family of brothers and sisters in Christ or a physical family with a spouse and children. Trust that God sees your loneliness and cares about it deeply. As well as to be careful about anger and frustration with God. Later in life Moses was not able to enter the promised land, because he became frustrated with God.

However, it is also important to examine your heart and your relationships. Are you seeking God's will in your life and in your relationships? Are you pursuing righteousness and holiness? Proverbs 18:22 says, "He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh." Note that it is a wife, not merely a partner or companion. God's design for relationships is clear, and we encourage you to pursue them in a way that honors Him.

It is also important to be actively involved in a community of believers. Hebrews 10:24-25 says, "Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as you see the Day approaching." If you are not already, get involved in a local church, join a small group, or volunteer in a ministry. This will provide opportunities to meet like-minded believers and form godly friendships and potentially meet a godly spouse.

We also want to address your relationship with God. It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can approach God. We are not specifically praying to Mary, an angel, or other saints. You mentioned feelings of anger towards God. We encourage you to be honest with God about your feelings, but also to seek forgiveness and reconciliation if you have harbored bitterness or anger towards Him. Remember that God is good and loving, and His plans for you are good. Romans 8:28 says, "We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose."

Finally, we want to remind you that your value is not determined by your relationship status or the number of friends you have. Your value comes from being created in the image of God and being loved by Him. Psalm 139:13-14 says, "For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well." Trust in God's love for you and His plan for your life.

We are praying for you and encourage you to continue seeking God's will in all aspects of your life, including your relationships. Trust in Him, and He will direct your paths.
