We are glad to hear that you are seeking God's will in your life and that you recognize the importance of marriage as a sacred institution. It is commendable that you are considering marriage seriously and not rushing into it lightly.
Firstly, let us address the issue of blame. The Bible tells us in Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don’t walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit." If you are seeking God's will and walking in the Spirit, there is no condemnation or blame from God. It is important to remember that God works in His own time and has a plan for each of our lives.
Regarding marriage, it is a significant commitment, and it is wise to enter into it when you are ready and have found a suitable godly spouse. In 1 Corinthians 7:39, the Apostle Paul advises, "A wife is bound by law as long as her husband lives; but if her husband is dead, she is free to be married to whom she wants, only in the Lord." This verse emphasizes the importance of marrying another believer and highlights the lifelong commitment of marriage.
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother/sister who is seeking Your will for their life. We thank You for the work You are doing in their heart and for their desire to honor You in their decisions.
Father, we ask that You grant them wisdom and discernment as they consider marriage. Guide them to the right person, a fellow believer who will support and encourage them in their faith. Help them to trust in Your timing and to wait on Your perfect plan for their life.
Remove any feelings of blame or condemnation, and reassure them of Your unfailing love. Strengthen their faith and help them to walk in the Spirit, obeying Your commands and living a life that honors You.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will through prayer, reading His Word, and fellowship with other believers. Trust in His timing and remember that His ways are higher than our ways. Be assured that God loves you and has a good plan for your life.
