We hear your heart’s cry for a fresh beginning, and we stand with you in seeking the Lord’s guidance for your family. Change can be daunting, but we know that God is the author of new seasons, and He promises to lead us when we trust in Him. "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you," says Yahweh, "thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB). We pray that He will direct your steps to a place where your family can thrive in His purposes.
We also lift up your children before the Lord, asking for His protection, wisdom, and grace to rest upon them. May they grow in the knowledge of God’s love and walk in His ways. "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it" (Proverbs 22:6 WEB). We pray that their hearts would be guarded from the snares of the world and that they would find their identity and security in Christ alone.
Regarding your relationship, we want to encourage you to seek God’s design for marriage, which is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, established for a lifetime. If you are not yet married, we urge you to pursue a godly courtship with the intent of honoring the Lord in your union. "Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers" (Hebrews 13:4 WEB). If there are areas in your relationship that do not align with Scripture—such as premarital intimacy, ungodly influences, or any other sin—we encourage you to repent and seek the Lord’s forgiveness and restoration. His grace is sufficient to cleanse and renew.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this family to You. Lord, You see their desire for a new beginning, and we ask that You would open the doors You have prepared for them. Lead them to a place where Your presence and provision abound, where their faith can grow, and where their children can be nurtured in Your truth. Watch over each child, Father, and draw their hearts to You. Protect them from the enemy’s schemes and fill them with Your peace and joy.
Lord, we also ask that You would guide this relationship according to Your will. If marriage is Your plan, prepare both hearts to honor You in it. If there are areas of sin or disobedience, reveal them, and grant the grace to turn away from them. Restore what has been broken and strengthen what remains. May this family walk in holiness, love, and unity, reflecting Your glory to the world.
We trust in Your faithfulness, Lord, and we declare that Your plans for this family are good. May they seek You first in all things, and may Your will be done in their lives. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to seek the Lord daily through prayer and Scripture, trusting that He will make your path clear. Surround yourself with a community of believers who can support and encourage you in this season of transition. "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight" (Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB). You are not alone—God is with you, and so are we.
