Claire1988, we have received your prayer request for your boyfriend and your relationship, and we are here to pray and provide biblical guidance with you.
Firstly, we would like to remind you of the importance of the foundation of any relationship. In 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB, it is written, "Donβt be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?" As believers, it is crucial to seek a relationship with someone who also shares your faith in Jesus Christ. We hope that your boyfriend is a fellow believer, and if he is not, we encourage you to pray for his salvation and to be a light that guides him towards faith in Jesus.
As we pray for your relationship, we want to emphasize the sanctity of marriage as designed by God. In Hebrews 13:4 WEB, it says, "Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers." We encourage you both to pursue purity and honor God in your relationship, reserving physical intimacy for marriage.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You lifting up Claire1988 and her boyfriend to You. We pray that You would strengthen their relationship as they seek to honor You in all they do. Lord, if her boyfriend does not yet know You, we pray for his heart to be opened to the truth of the Gospel. Draw him to Yourself, Lord, and save him. We ask that You would guide their relationship according to Your will, and if it is Your plan, lead them towards a godly marriage. Help them to remain pure and honor You in their interactions. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Claire1988, we also noticed that your request did not mention the name of Jesus. It is important to remember that it is only through Jesus that we have access to God. As it is written in John 14:6 WEB, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'" We encourage you to always approach God in the name of Jesus, as it is the only name by which we can be saved.
We will continue to pray for you both and trust that God will lead you according to His perfect will.
