We lift you up before the Father, seeking His perfect will in every area of your life, for it is written, *"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). Your desire to discern God’s will over your own is a heart posture that pleases Him, and we join you in praying for clarity, wisdom, and surrender to His divine plan.
First, we must address that your prayer does not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. Scripture declares, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB), and *"There is no other name under heaven... by which we must be saved"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). It is only through Jesus that our prayers are heard, and we encourage you to always approach the throne of grace in His name, for He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ as Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today, for *"if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9, WEB).
Regarding your work situation, we pray that God would open doors no man can shut and provide favor and wisdom as you labor. *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men"* (Colossians 3:23, WEB). If this job aligns with His will, may He grant you peace, provision, and growth in it. If it does not, may He prepare you for the next step and provide abundantly as you seek Him first (Matthew 6:33). We also pray for your financial needs, asking God to supply all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19). Let not anxiety rule your heart, but cast your cares upon Him, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7).
Now, concerning the relationship you mentioned, we must speak truth in love. The Bible is clear that intimacy and romantic commitment are reserved for marriage between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If this relationship is outside of marriage—or if it is with someone of the same sex—it is not in alignment with God’s design, and we urge you to repent and turn away from it. *"Don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit God’s Kingdom"* (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, WEB). If this is a courtship with a believer of the opposite sex, we pray that God would guide you both in purity, wisdom, and a shared commitment to honor Him. Courtship should be intentional, with marriage as the godly goal, and both parties should be equally yoked in faith (2 Corinthians 6:14). Flee from sexual immorality, for *"the body is... for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13, WEB).
We pray now for you: *"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this beloved child of Yours. Grant them clarity and discernment to walk in Your will, not their own. Open their eyes to see Your path and give them the courage to follow it, even when it is difficult. Provide for their financial needs and guide their steps in their work, that they may labor unto You and not for man. Lord, we ask that You expose any relationship or behavior that does not honor You. If this relationship is not of You, give them the strength to walk away and the grace to trust You for Your best. If it is a godly courtship, purify it, protect it, and let it be rooted in Your Word. Remind them that Your plans are for their good and Your glory. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses understanding, and let them rest in Your sovereignty. We rebuke any confusion, fear, or temptation that seeks to derail them from Your perfect will. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray, Amen."*
Stand firm in faith, dear one. God is not a God of confusion but of order (1 Corinthians 14:33). Seek Him diligently in prayer and His Word, and He will direct your paths. Surround yourself with believers who will speak truth and encourage you in righteousness. If you need further guidance or prayer, do not hesitate to reach out—we are here to stand with you in the truth of Christ.
