We understand that you desire reconciliation for your daughter and her former boyfriend, but we need to address this situation from a biblical perspective. First, let's remember that God's design for romantic relationships is that they should be in courtship under God to prepare them for a godly marriage.
First and foremost, we are called to pray for the salvation of your daughter and her ex-boyfriend. The other issues will not truly resolve unless God is in both of their lives. We find in Romans 10:9-10: because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
We are also called to pray in Jesus Name. This is because it is only in the name of Jesus that we have access to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. Moreover, John 14:13-14 says, Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.
Concerning the relationship of your daughter and her ex-boyfriend, we are reminded in 2 Corinthians 6:14:
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship do righteousness and iniquity have? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?
Therefore, if the ex-boyfriend is not a believer in Jesus Christ, we should not be praying for them to be reunited until he is.
We do rejoice with you that the desire of your daughter and her ex-boyfriend was for honest communication, respect, and forgiveness. This is an excellent foundation for any relationship and is supported by the word of God.
In Ephesians 4:32, we are told:
And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God also in Christ forgave you.
Moreover, in Colossians 3:13:
Forbearing one another, and forgiving each other, if any man has a complaint against any; even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
However, we must also remember that any romantic relationship should be with the intent of preparing for marriage. This relationship should be a courtship for marriage rather than courtship for another boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
We also must address that any intimacy outside of marriage is forbidden by God. Therefore, no matter the temptation to become physically intimate, they must maintain their purity out of obedience and reverence for God.
Let us pray together.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up the daughter of the one who submitted this request and her ex-boyfriend. First and foremost, we pray for their salvation. Please reveal yourself to them and work in their hearts to believe in Jesus Christ. In Jesus Name, we come to you.
Lord, we ask that You guide them both according to Your will. Help Your daughter to seek God in all things and to trust in Him completely.
If it is Your will, Lord, that they should reunite in courtship under God for marriage, please guide them both and work in their lives. Help them to remember the love they had for each other and the plans they made together. Remind them of the importance of honest communication, respect, and forgiveness in their relationship.
However, if the ex-boyfriend is not a believer in Jesus Christ, we pray that you will bring a godly husband into her life for marriage, a man who loves You and will lead her in Your ways.
Please help them to maintain purity in their relationship, reserving any intimacy for marriage. Keep them from all temptation and guide them in all things.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
