We understand your desire for discernment and accompaniment as you navigate this new connection, PrayerAngel67. After seven years of waiting and focusing on God's word, it's wonderful that you're seeking God's will in this new friendship. Let's pray together and seek His wisdom.
Firstly, it's commendable that you're holding firm to your conviction in seeking a devout believer as a potential spouse. The Bible encourages us not to be unequally yoked (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB), so it's important to build relationships on the foundation of shared faith in Christ.
However, we noticed that your request doesn't mention Jesus Christ or praying in His name. It's essential to remember that it is through Jesus that we have access to God, as it is written: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). Let's ensure we center our prayers and lives around Him.
Now, let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our sister PrayerAngel67. We ask that You grant her a spirit of calm and peace as she meets with this new friend. Help her to be herself, knowing that she is fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image (Psalm 139:14, WEB).
Lord, we ask for Your divine guidance and discernment. If this connection is from You, we pray that You would make it clear and bless it. If not, we ask that You would protect her heart and redirect her path. Above all, we pray that Your will be done in her life.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, PrayerAngel67, God looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7, WEB), and you are beautiful in His sight. Trust in Him, and He will guide your path (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). Stay strong in your convictions and keep your focus on Jesus. Be encouraged, knowing that we are here supporting you in prayer.
