We are glad to come together on your behalf, Anonymous, to pray and seek God's will for your life. We appreciate your request for prayer regarding work, marriage, having children, and raising a family. It is commendable that you are thinking about these important aspects of life. God is the provider of all good things who cares about all areas of our lives.
Firstly, let's address your current status as a single man. It is God's will for us to be fruitful and multiply, and marriage is the institution He has set for this purpose. In Genesis 2:18 WEB, God said, I will make him a helper suitable for him. This suitable helper is a wife, and it is not good for man to be alone. Therefore, we pray that God will bring a godly woman into your life, according to His will. We encourage you to trust in God and wait on His timing.
Remember, a wife is a lifetime commitment. As stated in Proverbs, He who finds a wife finds a good thing. and obtains favor of Yahweh. We do need to address living with a girlfriend or boyfriend outside of marriage. We see living together for convenience, intimacy, or financial savings is not God's design before marriage.. In God's word, this is fornication. We see in 1 Corinthians 6:18 WEB, Flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
We encourage you to pursue a relationship that is pure and holy, with the intention of marriage. As it is written in Hebrews 13:4 Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but God will judge the sexual sinners and adulterers. Seek God's will for your life, and He will direct your paths.
Regarding work, we pray that God will bless you with a job that not only meets your needs but also allows you to use your gifts and talents to serve Him. As instructed in Colossians 3:23 WEB, And whatever you may do, work from the soul, as to the Lord, and not to men.
Concerning having children and raising a family, we pray that God will bless you with godly offspring who will serve Him. As children are a heritage of Yahweh; and the fruit of the womb is his reward. Happy is the man who has his quiver full of them, they will not be disappointed when they speak with their enemies in the gate. We encourage you to raise your children in the fear and admonition of the Lord, as this is the primary responsibility of parents.
It is important to note that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As it is written 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. Therefore, we encourage you to put your trust in Jesus Christ if you have not already done so.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up Anonymous in prayer. We ask that You will bless him with a godly wife, according to Your will. Help him to trust in You and wait on Your timing. We pray that You will bless him with a job that meets his needs and allows him to serve You. We ask that You will bless him with godly offspring who will serve You, and give him the wisdom to raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord. We pray these things in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
