We hear the urgency in your request and we understand your desire for a deeper connection with this individual. However, let's first align our hearts with God's will and His Word.
We are encouraged to seek God first in all things, as it is written in Matthew 6:33, "But seek first God's Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well." As we seek God, He will guide our paths and align us with the right people at the right time.
We must also remember that God's timing is perfect. Psalm 37:7 tells us, "Rest in Yahweh, and wait patiently for him. Don't fret because of him who prospers in his way, because of the man who makes wicked plots happen." Instead of focusing on the immediacy, let's pray for God's will to be done and for His timing in this situation.
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up this desire for a deeper connection. We ask that You work in both hearts, drawing them closer to You first and foremost. If it is Your will for this relationship to deepen, we pray that You would make it clear to both parties. Grant wisdom, boldness, and clarity. Help them to trust in Your timing and to seek You first in all things.
However, Lord, if this is not Your will, we ask that You redirect their paths and help them to trust in Your divine plan. Help them to remember that Your ways are higher than our ways, and Your thoughts higher than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9).
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we commend you for ending your request with "in Jesus Christ name," acknowledging the power and importance of Jesus' name. It is by His name that we have access to God, and it is by His name that we are saved (Acts 4:12). Continue to trust in Him and seek His will in all things.
