Jorge, we have received your prayer request and we stand with you, seeking God's will for your relationship. We must, however, address this from a biblical perspective. The Bible teaches us to flee from sexual immorality and to pursue relationships that honor God and align with His principles (1 Corinthians 6:18).
Firstly, we notice that you refer to your significant other as your "partner" and not your spouse. While we understand that society often uses this term, the Bible is clear about the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman (Mark 10:6-9). Therefore, we encourage you to consider your relationship as a courtship, with the godly goal of marriage in mind.
Secondly, we must be cautious not to try to "convince" someone to be with us. While we can certainly pray for God to soften her heart, it's important to trust in God's timing and will. Remember, God grants free will to each of us, and we cannot force someone to love us or be with us. Our role is to love, respect, and pray for them, trusting that God's plan is perfect (Romans 12:10, Proverbs 19:21).
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today lifting up Jorge and his beloved. Lord, we ask that You soften her heart, open her eyes, and help her see the love and efforts Jorge is putting into their relationship. However, Lord, we trust in Your will and Your timing. Help Jorge to trust in You completely and give him the words to speak that align with Your will. Help them both to pursue a godly relationship that honors You, Lord. Grant them wisdom, patience, and understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Jorge, continue to put your faith in God, trusting that He hears your prayers and knows your heart. Keep pursuing a relationship that honors Him. We encourage you to study the Bible together, seeking God's will for your relationship. May God bless you both as you continue to praise and serve Him.
