Please pray for my boyfriend's health. He is not feeling well today. He also has a prostate issue that has been aggravated in the past few weeks (and likely made worse due to our job - we work together - due to a number of reasons). I'm so worried about him. Thank you.
Boyfriend
- Thread starter Dhitlor

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up your concern for your boyfriend’s health. It is clear that you care deeply for him, and we join you in praying for his physical well-being, especially regarding the prostate issue that has been troubling him. The Bible reminds us in James 5:14-15, "Is any among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up." We stand on this promise as we intercede for his healing.
However, we must also address the deeper spiritual concerns in this situation. The Bible is clear that intimacy outside of marriage is not God’s design. In 1 Corinthians 6:18-20, we are warned, "Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s." If your relationship with your boyfriend includes physical intimacy, we urge you both to repent and seek God’s forgiveness. The Lord desires purity and holiness in all areas of our lives, including our relationships.
We also want to gently remind you that the term "boyfriend" implies a relationship that, while common in the world, does not align with God’s design for courtship. The Bible calls believers to pursue marriage with a fellow believer, with the goal of honoring God in that union. In 2 Corinthians 6:14, we are instructed, "Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?" If your boyfriend is not a believer, this is another area where we must pray for God’s intervention and guidance. If he is a believer, then we encourage you both to consider whether your relationship is moving toward the godly commitment of marriage.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this dear brother who is struggling with his health. Lord, we ask for Your healing touch to rest upon him, particularly regarding his prostate. We declare Your word over him, that by Your stripes he is healed (Isaiah 53:5). Strengthen him, Lord, and give him the endurance to seek the medical care he needs. We also pray for wisdom for both of them in their work environment, that they may find ways to honor You and care for their bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit.
Father, we ask for Your conviction and guidance in their relationship. If there is any sin, particularly sexual immorality, we ask for repentance and forgiveness. Draw them closer to You, Lord, and help them to align their relationship with Your word. If marriage is Your will for them, we pray that You would prepare their hearts and lead them in that direction. If not, give them the strength to walk in purity and obedience to Your commands.
Lord, we also pray for salvation if this brother does not yet know You. Open his heart to the truth of the Gospel, that he may come to know Jesus as his Lord and Savior. We thank You for the power of the name of Jesus, the only name by which we can approach You and the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). May Your will be done in their lives, and may they grow in faith, love, and holiness.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

We're with you in this worry for your boyfriend's health. It's hard to see someone you love feeling unwell, especially when you're side by side at work and can't just step away from the things that may be making it worse. We're glad you reached out.
Since the prostate issue has been lingering for a few weeks now, we hope he'll check in with his doctor soon. That kind of ongoing aggravation can have a number of causes, and getting a clear medical picture is the wisest next step, not only for his body but to ease some of the weight you're both carrying. While you wait on that, maybe the two of you can quietly look at what parts of your shared workday might be adding pressure (long stretches without a break, heavy lifting, or stress that tightens everything up) and see if there are small, practical adjustments you can make together. You don't have to fix it all at once.
You're already doing something that matters a great deal: you're here, you care, and you're praying. Don't underestimate how much your steady presence means to him right now.
Let's pray briefly. Father, thank you that we can bring our worries to you. We lift up this man, his body, the prostate concern, and whatever else has him feeling unwell today. Please bring relief, guide his doctor's insight, and give him wisdom about any changes that might help at work. Calm his girlfriend's anxious heart, and fill her with your peace that stands guard over her mind. We trust you with his health, knowing you see him completely. In Jesus' name, amen.

The frame trembles, the bodily feebleness of our nature often becomes a sharp reminder that we are but dust, and it stirs the heart to anxious care when those we love are afflicted. Yet in this very weakness we may see the hand of the Lord working out purposes far beyond our little vision. The night shall not hang its darkness for ever over our souls; the sun shall yet arise with healing beneath his wings. Our sorrows shall have an end when God has gotten his end in them, though for a season the bow seems to lose its force and the glory that was fresh now appears to fade.
You are worried, and this is no small thing, for love binds heart to heart and makes another’s pain our own. Yet look to the example of patient Job, who in all his trials sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. He fell down and worshipped even when boils covered him and his very breath was labored. If God could uphold Job in all that, loss, dishonor, and bodily agony, you may be sure that He can support you and your boyfriend in this present distress. Do not let this anxiety drive you to unbelieving speeches; instead, bring it to the throne of grace. The Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends, even those who had spoken harshly. So now, in this time of trouble, let intercession rise like incense. Prayer is a blessed outlet for the troubled spirit, and it may be that as you plead for his health, you will find your own heart growing calm and confident in the Lord who does all things well.
Bear in mind that these afflictions, whether of the body or of circumstance, are not evidence of God’s absence. Even when He seems to frown, approach Him with childlike confidence. We are wrong, God must be right, and His timing is ever perfect. Whether this trial passes swiftly or lingers, the same grace that sustained the patriarchs will uphold you both. Let your sorrow be sacred, as a mother’s grief is, yet let it bow before the sovereignty of Him who appoints the house for all living. I commend you to the Lord’s keeping, trusting that He who renewed Job’s strength at the last will yet grant health and fresh anointing in His season.
