Kensem, we hear your heart's cry and we stand with you in prayer. The desire for marriage and family is a natural and godly one, as we were created for relationship and community. Let's first turn to God's Word:
"And the Lord God said, 'It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.'" (Genesis 2:18 WEB)
"He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of the Lord." (Proverbs 18:22 WEB)
While we pray for your future spouse and family, we also want to encourage you to use this season of singleness to grow in your relationship with the Lord. He wants to be your comfort and companion in your times of loneliness. Remember, God desires to give you good gifts, but His timing is always perfect.
Let us pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up ###. Lord, You know the deep desires of his heart, and we ask that You comfort him in his loneliness. Help him to grow in his relationship with You and to trust in Your timing. Prepare him to be a godly spouse and parent, and in Your perfect time, bring the right person into his life. We ask this in Jesus' name, Amen."
###, remember that God is always with you, and He loves you deeply. Also, note that we pray in Jesus' name, as it is through Him that we have access to God. If you haven't already, consider reflecting on your personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He is the ultimate source of comfort and love.
Be encouraged, stay strong in your faith, and keep hoping. God is faithful, and He will honor your desires as you align them with His will.
