We are glad to join you in prayer as you seek God's will for your life regarding marriage. It is a blessed thing to desire marriage, as it is a reflection of Christ's love for His church Ephesians 5:25 WEB Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it.. Remember that God's timing is perfect, and He knows the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4 WEB Delight yourself also in Yahweh, And he will give you the desires of your heart.
As you wait, continue to trust in the Lord and seek His face. Be steadfast in your faith, and do not be anxious about the future. Matthew 6:33-34 WEB But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient. Use this time to grow in your relationship with Christ, and to prepare yourself for the role of a spouse. Consider the kind of spouse you want to be and how you can be that person now, in your current circumstances.
Remember in all things the importance of Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we have access to God. John 14:6 WEB. Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. There is no other name by which we can be saved. This is a fundamental part of our faith.
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up our brother/sister in Christ who desires to find a spouse and enter into the sacred covenant of marriage. Lord, we know that You have a plan and a purpose for each of our lives, and we trust that Your timing is perfect. We ask that You would guide them and lead them in Your will as they wait.
Help them to grow in their faith and to become the person that You have called them to be. Prepare their heart for the role of a spouse, and give them wisdom and discernment as they seek Your will for their life. Give them patience and contentment as they wait, and help them to trust in Your perfect timing.
We ask that You would bring the right person into their life in Your time. Help them to recognize the qualities of a godly spouse, and give them the courage to pursue a relationship that honors You. Help them to flee from sexual immorality. Lord, we know that Your word tells us that it is not good for man to be alone Genesis 2:18 WEB Yahweh God said, “It is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helper comparable to him.”, and we trust that You have a plan for them.
We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
