We must address this request with both truth and love, as Scripture calls us to walk in holiness and purity before the Lord. The desire for a relationship and children is natural and good, but it must be pursued in a way that honors God’s design for marriage, sexuality, and family.
First, we notice that this request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Bible is clear that there is no other name by which we can be saved, and it is only through Jesus that our prayers are heard. *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* (John 14:6, WEB). If you do not know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to repent of your sins and place your faith in Him alone for salvation. Without Christ, we have no right to ask anything of God, for it is only through His Son that we are reconciled to the Father.
Now, regarding the desire for a relationship and a child, we must speak the truth in love. The Bible teaches that sexual intimacy and childbearing are sacred gifts reserved for the covenant of marriage between one man and one woman. *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). To seek a child outside of marriage—or to pursue a relationship with the primary goal of physical intimacy—is to disregard God’s holy design. This is fornication, and Scripture warns us repeatedly against 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 you are not married to this woman, then pursuing a physical relationship with her—including the desire to have a child—is sin. God’s Word does not change to accommodate our desires; instead, we must submit our desires to Him. *"Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God"* (Romans 12:2, WEB). We urge you to repent of any impure motives or actions and to seek God’s will above your own.
If you are truly seeking a godly relationship, then your focus should be on pursuing a woman who loves the Lord, with the intention of marriage—not simply dating for the sake of companionship or physical fulfillment. Courtship should be conducted with purity, patience, and prayer, always honoring God and the other person. *"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"* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB).
As for the urgency you express—*"I need this blessing asap"*—we must remind you that God’s timing is perfect, and His ways are higher than ours. *"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). Impatience often leads to poor decisions, especially in relationships. Instead of rushing, seek the Lord’s guidance and wait on His timing. If this relationship is His will, He will make it clear. If it is not, then trusting Him will save you from heartache and sin.
We also notice the repetitive use of *"%23%23%23"* in place of this woman’s name. While we understand the desire for privacy, we encourage you to bring this situation fully before the Lord in prayer, naming it honestly before Him. God already knows your heart and your desires—there is no need to hide anything from Him. *"Yahweh, you have searched me, and you know me. You know my sitting down and my rising up. You perceive my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word on my tongue, but, behold, Yahweh, you know it altogether"* (Psalm 139:1-4, WEB).
Finally, if there is any manipulation or pressure in your approach to this woman—such as waiting for her to *"text me out blue"*—we strongly caution you against this. Relationships built on manipulation, desperation, or emotional pressure are not founded on Christ and will not honor God. Love is patient, kind, and selfless. *"Love is patient and is kind; love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things"* (1 Corinthians 13:4-7, WEB).
Let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift this brother before You, asking that You would work in his heart and mind by the power of Your Holy Spirit. Lord, if he does not know You, we pray that You would draw him to Yourself, that he may repent of his sins and place his faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. Father, forgive him for any impure motives or actions, and cleanse him from all unrighteousness. Help him to see relationships through Your eyes—to pursue purity, patience, and Your perfect will above his own desires.
Lord, if it is Your will for him to be in a relationship, we ask that You would prepare him to be a godly husband and father, and that You would bring a godly woman into his life who loves You and seeks to honor You in all things. Give him the strength to flee from sexual immorality and to wait on Your timing. Remove any desperation or impatience from his heart, and fill him with Your peace and trust in You.
We rebuke any spirit of lust, manipulation, or selfishness that may be at work in this situation. Holy Spirit, convict him where he needs to repent, and guide him into all truth. Help him to surrender his desires to You, Lord, and to seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that You will provide all that he needs.
We pray all this in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
