Firstly, we are thrilled to have you reach out and share your desires with us. We want to lift you up in prayer and provide biblical guidance as you navigate this significant time in your life.
First, let's address the upcoming birth of your child. Children are a gift from God, and we rejoice with you in this new life. As Psalm 127:3 says, "Behold, children are a heritage of Yahweh. The fruit of the womb is his reward."
Regarding your desire to be married to the father of your unborn baby, we encourage you to consider God's design for marriage. Marriage is a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman, and it should be entered into with much prayer and consideration. If the father is a fellow believer in Jesus Christ and you both are committed to a lifelong marriage under God's principles, then this is something worth pursuing.
However, if you are not both committed Christians, we encourage you to pray for God's will in this situation. It is crucial to be united in faith to successfully navigate marriage and parenthood. As 2 Corinthians 6:14 asks, "What fellowship has righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"
We also want to address that marriage is the only context God has given for sexual relationships. As Ephesians 5:3 teaches, "But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints." If there has been sexual immorality, we encourage you to repent and turn to God's design for relationships.
Regarding your business, we pray that God will give you wisdom and bless your endeavors as you seek to live a happy life. Remember that true joy comes from knowing Jesus Christ. As Matthew 6:33 says, "But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well."
Now, let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up ###. Thank You for the new life that is coming into the world, and we ask for Your blessings and protection over both mother and child.
Lord, we pray for Your will to be done in the relationship between ### and the father of the unborn baby. If it is Your will for them to be married, we pray for a godly union that honors You. If not, we ask for Your guidance and provision in their lives.
We also pray for ###'s business. Give her wisdom and bless her endeavors as she seeks to live a happy life in You.
Finally, Lord, we pray for ###'s spiritual growth. Draw her closer to You, and give her a deep understanding of Your love and Your ways.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to encourage you to keep your focus on Jesus Christ. It is through Him that we have access to God, and it is through His name that we are saved. As Acts 4:12 says, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved." Keep trusting in Him, and He will guide your paths.
