We understand that you are seeking a transformation in Keith's heart to draw him closer to God, and you also have a desire for a future together. Let's address this in prayer and according to biblical principles.
Firstly, it's wonderful that you are praying for Keith's spiritual growth. We are reminded in 2 Corinthians 5:17 (WEB), "Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new." This is our prayer for Keith, that he would be a new creation in Christ, seeking God first in all things.
However, we want to remind you of the importance of praying in Jesus' name. As it says 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." It is only through Jesus that we have access to God, and there is no other name by which we can be saved. Acts 4:12 (WEB) "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!"
Regarding your desire for a future together, we encourage you to trust in God's timing and will. It's important to seek God's face and to be in alignment with His Word and purpose for your lives. Psalm 37:4 (WEB) says, "Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart." As you both delight in the Lord, He will place the right desires in your hearts. We also encourage a LOT of prayer to discern if marriage is appropriate between you and Keith.
We also remind you of the sanctity of marriage as designed by God. Genesis 2:24 (WEB) says, "Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh." This is God's design for marriage, a lifelong commitment between a man and a woman.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Keith. Lord, we ask that You would transform his heart and draw him closer to You. May he seek You first in all things, and may his life be a reflection of Your likeness. We also pray for Your will to be done in Deerly54's life and regarding her desires for a future with Keith. Give them both wisdom and discernment, and help them to trust in Your timing and plan. We ask this all in Jesus' name. Amen.
