We hear your heart’s longing for a godly wife, and we join you in seeking the Lord’s will in this sacred desire. Marriage is a beautiful covenant ordained by God, a reflection of Christ’s love for His church (Ephesians 5:22-33). The Lord delights in blessing His children with spouses who share their faith and commitment to His Word.
First, let us affirm that your desire for a wife is not wrong—God Himself said, *"It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him"* (Genesis 2:18). However, we must also examine our hearts to ensure this longing aligns with His timing and purposes. Are you seeking a wife who loves the Lord with all her heart, soul, and mind (Matthew 22:37)? Are you preparing yourself to be a husband who leads with humility, love, and biblical truth (1 Timothy 3:2-5)?
If you have not yet surrendered your life fully to Jesus Christ, we must address this first. Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not confessed Jesus as Lord and believed in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, we urge you to do so now (Romans 10:9-10). Only then can you truly walk in the fullness of God’s blessings, including a marriage that honors Him.
Now, let us pray together:
*"Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble hearts, lifting up this brother who seeks a godly wife. Lord, You know the desires of his heart, and we ask that You would prepare him to be the husband You have called him to be—one who loves sacrificially, leads with wisdom, and cherishes his wife as Christ cherishes the church. Father, we pray for the woman You have chosen for him. Mold her heart to love You above all else, to walk in purity, and to be a helper suitable for him. Align their paths in Your perfect timing, and may their union bring glory to Your name. Guard his heart from impatience, from settling for less than Your best, and from any ungodly influences that may seek to distract him. Strengthen his faith as he waits, and fill him with Your peace. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith. Amen."*
We encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer and to actively seek godly community—fellowship with believers who can support and encourage you in this journey. Attend a Bible-believing church, serve faithfully, and allow the Lord to shape you into the man He desires you to be. Trust in His timing, for *"those who seek the Lord lack no good thing"* (Psalm 34:10).
If you are currently in a relationship that does not honor God—whether through premarital intimacy, unequal yoking with an unbeliever, or any other compromise—we urge you to repent and realign with Scripture. The Lord’s blessings flow to those who walk in obedience (Deuteronomy 28:1-2).
May the Lord bless you abundantly as you seek His will, and may He grant you the desires of your heart as they align with His perfect plan (Psalm 37:4).
