We hear your heart’s deep cry and stand with you in prayer, lifting your struggles and desires before the Lord. Your request reveals a sincere longing for healing, restoration, and trust in God’s sovereign plan. We rejoice in your growing connection with Him—this is the foundation upon which all else must be built. Let us first affirm that your willingness to surrender control and trust in His timing is a beautiful act of faith, one that aligns with Proverbs 3:5-6: *"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."*
Your battle with complex PTSD is not overlooked by our Heavenly Father. He sees your pain and desires to restore you to the fullness of who He created you to be. Scripture assures us in Psalm 147:3, *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds."* We pray fervently for your healing, that the Lord would strengthen your mind, renew your spirit, and grant you resilience against the effects of trauma. May His peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). The process of becoming the person God intends you to be is a journey of sanctification, and we ask that He would continue to mold you into His likeness, filling you with His love, joy, and purpose.
Regarding your desire for this relationship to mend, we must approach this with both compassion and biblical clarity. While it is natural to long for reconciliation, we must examine whether this relationship aligns with God’s design for marriage and godly union. The mention of a "relationship" without clarity on whether this is a marriage or a courtship with the intent of marriage raises concerns. Scripture is clear that marriage is a covenant between one man and one woman, a lifelong commitment established by God (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If this is not a marriage, we encourage you to consider whether this relationship is honoring to God in its current form. Are you both believers in Christ, pursuing holiness and purity? Are you both committed to the biblical model of courtship with the goal of marriage, or is this a relationship that may be leading to emotional or physical compromise?
The presence of "third-party influences" is a valid concern, as outside voices can often sow discord or confusion. We rebuke in Jesus’ name any influence that does not align with God’s will for this relationship, whether it be from people, spiritual forces, or the enemy’s schemes. James 3:16 warns, *"For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed."* We pray that the Lord would expose and remove any ungodly influences, replacing them with His wisdom and peace. However, we must also ask: Are there unrepentant sins or patterns in this relationship that have contributed to its brokenness? Have there been moments of fornication, emotional infidelity, or disobedience to God’s commands? If so, true restoration can only come through repentance, forgiveness, and a commitment to walk in righteousness. We urge you to examine this relationship honestly before the Lord, seeking His guidance through prayer and Scripture.
Your episode and the pain it has caused are not trivial. We pray that the Lord would bring healing to your emotions and stability to your mind. Psalm 34:18 reminds us, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* We ask that He would surround you with His presence, granting you comfort and strength in your weakest moments. Yet, we must also acknowledge that your healing and wholeness in Christ are not contingent upon this relationship. Your identity and future are secure in Him, regardless of the outcome. If this relationship is not God’s will for you, we pray that He would give you the grace to release it fully, trusting that His plans for you are good (Jeremiah 29:11). The pain of letting go is real, but so is the promise of His peace and provision.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts heavy with both hope and concern. We lift up this dear brother to You, asking that You would be his refuge and strength in this season. Lord, we pray for his healing from the wounds of complex PTSD. Touch his mind, body, and spirit, restoring him to the fullness of who You created him to be. Grant him resilience against the effects of trauma, and fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. Father, we ask that You would continue to draw him closer to You, deepening his trust in Your sovereignty and goodness.
Regarding this relationship, we ask for Your divine clarity and wisdom. If this is a marriage, we pray for restoration, repentance, and renewal, that it would reflect Your design for covenant love. If this is not a marriage, we ask that You would reveal whether this relationship aligns with Your will. Expose any areas of sin or compromise, and lead both individuals to walk in holiness and obedience to Your Word. Remove all third-party influences that do not align with Your purposes, and replace them with Your wisdom and peace. If this relationship is not Your will, give him the strength to release it fully, trusting in Your perfect plan for his life.
Father, we rebuke any lies from the enemy that would seek to steal, kill, or destroy his hope in You. We declare that his future is secure in Christ, and that You have plans to prosper him and not to harm him. Whether this relationship is restored or released, we pray that he would find his ultimate fulfillment in You. Help him to surrender control entirely to Your hands, trusting that Your timing and ways are perfect.
We pray all of this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the Author and Perfecter of our faith, the One who heals, restores, and redeems. Amen.
In closing, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord with all your heart, immersing yourself in His Word and surrounding yourself with godly community. The journey of healing and discernment is not one to walk alone. Proverbs 11:14 reminds us, *"Where there is no counsel, the people fall, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety."* Seek out wise, biblical counsel from pastors, mentors, or Christian counselors who can help you navigate this season with godly wisdom.
Lastly, remember that your worth and future are not defined by this relationship, but by your identity in Christ. You are deeply loved, chosen, and called by God for a purpose far greater than you can imagine. Hold fast to His promises, and trust that He is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). Whether together or apart, He has a future filled with hope for you. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus, the source of all healing and hope.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
