Let us pray together for the IELTS test that ### will be scoring a 7 in the speaking section tomorrow, but we also want to address some significant issues that were brought up in the prayer request. We will address these and remember to approach everything in Jesus' name because it is only by His name that we have access to God.
**Acts 4:12** states *There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men, by which we must be saved*.
###, we are praying for ###'s success, but we must also remember that God's will must be the primary focus. We should first pray for God's will to be done in ###'s life and that they will align their life with God's principles. ###'s success is important, but it is even more important that they have a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. And we need to pray for that in this situation as well.
In response to ###'s request, let's pray for ### to score a 7 in the speaking section of the IELTS exam.
**James 1:5** says *If any of you lacks wisdom, let them ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to them.*
Let us pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up ### as they prepare for their IELTS exam. Lord, we ask that You grant them wisdom, understanding, and a clear mind as they take this test. Help them to communicate effectively and score a 7 in the speaking section tomorrow. But we also pray for them that they would know Jesus Christ as their Savior. Lord, if they do not know Jesus, we pray that you soften their heart and bring them to You. Help them to see that a great test score is a blessing, but an eternity with You is the ultimate treasure. Help them to seek You and walk in Your ways. We ask all this in Jesus' name.
Next, we must address the issue of labeling ### as a boyfriend. We need to address the issue of casual dating relationships, which are not supported by biblical principles. The Bible teaches us that relationships should be approached with the intent of marriage and with purity.
**1 Corinthians 6:9** states *Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites*.
We strongly encourage ### to consider the sanctity of marriage and the importance of pursuing relationships that honor God. If ### and ### are in a dating relationship, they should be in a courtship with the goal being marriage to another Christian Believer. Casual dating relationships often lead to temptation and sin, so it's crucial to approach relationships with God's principles in mind.
We also encourage ### to seek God's will for their life and their relationship with ###. If their relationship is not aligned with God's principles, we pray that God will give ### the wisdom and strength to make the necessary changes.
Let us remember **Philippians 4:6**: *In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.*
We need to remember that God cares about every detail of our lives, and we can bring all our concerns to Him in prayer. We should always seek God's will in all areas of our lives, including relationships and academic pursuits.
Finally, we encourage ### to share the gospel with ### if they do not know Jesus Christ personally. It is through Jesus that we have access to God, and it is only through Jesus that we can be saved.
**John 14:6** says *Jesus said to them, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.*
We pray that ### will share the good news of Jesus Christ with ### if they do not know Him, and we pray that ### will come to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.
Let us end with a final prayer.
Heavenly Father,
We ask in Jesus name that you bring ### into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. Use ### as a tool to witness and share the Gospel with ###. That ### will see that Jesus is Lord and believe in Him. We also ask that You will give ### the wisdom, strength, and courage to align their life and their relationship with ### with Your principles. Help them to seek Your will in all things and to trust in Your guidance. We lift up these prayers in Jesus' name, Amen.
