Gods will and ways for ### heart and mind ❤️❤️❤️

[Craurath]

Heavenly Father,

Thank you for your goodness and for hearing my prayers. I praise you for opening this door and leading us to connect through our video call. Thank you for guiding our steps and bringing ### into my life.

Lord, I commit this new relationship into your hands. I ask that your will and your ways be done above all else. Please touch ###’s heart and mind. Stir a genuine romance and a deep spark within him toward me. If it is your will, let this relationship grow deep and serious, to the point where he openly and out loud declares his love for me. I pray that he sees the value in me, feels a true connection, and views me as a perfect fit for his life.

I pray that you shape him into a man with the heart of a provider—someone who is kind, loving, and ready to be a wonderful partner to me and a loving stepdad to my boys. I ask that you make a way for him to visit me soon.

Father, I lay my deepest desires before you: our future together, marriage, a petition to join him in ###, and a united family with my boys as his stepsons. I trust these dreams to your perfect timing and your perfect plan. Guide our steps, protect our hearts, and let your peace lead us every day.

In Jesus' name, I pray.

Amen.

We hear your heartfelt prayer and join with you in seeking God’s perfect will for your life and the life of . It is beautiful to see your desire to surrender this relationship to the Lord, trusting in His timing and plan. We pray that God’s wisdom and peace would guide both of you as you navigate this season.

First, we want to affirm the importance of seeking God’s will above all else. Your prayer reflects a heart that longs to honor Him, and that is commendable. Scripture reminds us in 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." We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord’s guidance in every step, allowing Him to direct your paths rather than relying solely on your own desires or emotions.

We also want to gently address the nature of your request regarding this relationship. While it is natural to desire companionship and love, we must ensure that our pursuits align with God’s design for relationships. The Bible is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, and it is meant to reflect Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). We encourage you to prayerfully consider whether this relationship is moving toward marriage in a way that honors God. If is not a believer, we must caution you, as Scripture warns us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). If he is a believer, we pray that God would draw both of your hearts closer to Him and to one another in a way that glorifies Him.

We also want to address the topic of intimacy. The Bible is clear that sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage (Hebrews 13:4). If this relationship is moving toward physical intimacy outside of marriage, we must rebuke that in the name of Jesus and encourage you to honor God with your body and your heart. We pray that you would both pursue purity and holiness, allowing God to build a foundation of trust and respect between you.

Now, let us lift this situation to the Lord in prayer:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of faith and surrender. We thank You for the opportunity to lift up this relationship to You, asking that Your will be done in every aspect of it. Lord, we pray that You would touch ’s heart and mind, drawing him closer to You and stirring within him a genuine love and commitment that aligns with Your Word. If it is Your will for this relationship to grow into a godly marriage, we ask that You would make that clear to both of them. Shape into a man of God, a provider, a loving husband, and a stepfather who reflects Your love and grace to this family.

Father, we ask that You protect their hearts from any deception or impure motives. Guard them against temptation and help them to honor You in their thoughts, words, and actions. We pray for wisdom and discernment as they navigate this season, that they would seek You above all else. Lord, if this relationship is not Your will, we ask that You would make that clear and give them the strength to walk away in faith, trusting in Your perfect plan.

We also lift up the desire for marriage and a united family. Lord, we know that Your timing is perfect, and we ask that You would prepare both of their hearts for the future You have in store. Give them patience and peace as they wait on You, and let Your love be the foundation of their relationship.

We pray all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the name above all names, the only name by which we can come to You and the only name by which we can be saved. May Your will be done in their lives, and may Your glory be revealed through them. Amen.

In closing, we encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and in His Word. Spend time in Scripture, allowing God to speak to you and guide you. Surround yourself with godly counsel and community, as iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17). Trust in the Lord’s timing, for He is faithful to complete the good work He has begun in you (Philippians 1:6). May His peace and presence be with you always.

We join you in this: bringing our longings to the Father with an open heart. What strikes us in your prayer is how you’re already doing what matters most, laying this new relationship before the Lord and asking that His will, not just your own, be done. That posture is a gift, and we can trust that He holds you securely as you wait.

When we pour out our desires like this, God often meets us first with the peace He promises, even before we see how things unfold. That peace can steady your heart and quiet the urgent need to know every outcome right now. So as you continue to pray, ask Him daily to guard your heart and thoughts with that very peace. It’s a powerful way to stay anchored while you walk forward.

You might also consider sharing this with a wise, mature Christian friend or a pastor you trust, not to get a yes or no on the relationship, but to have someone who will pray with you, listen to what you’re hearing from the Lord, and help you see clearly. We weren’t made to discern these big things alone. That kind of honest, prayerful companionship can make the waiting lighter and the way clearer.

For now, we pray with you:

Father, we thank you that ###'s heart is in your hands. We ask that your will and your ways be done in this relationship and in ###'s life. Give our sister your peace that passes understanding. Protect her and her boys, and grant her wisdom and patience to trust your timing. If this connection is from you, we pray you would deepen it in ways that honor you; if not, give her the grace to see that clearly and to find her full security in you. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Praying in Jesus Name.

 

[Spurgeon]

How can it be that a soul that has tasted of the love of God in Christ Jesus should yet be so divided in its affections? You speak of a door opened, a connection formed, and you lay your deepest desires before the throne of grace, a future, a marriage, a united home. These are not in themselves evil; the Most High created man and woman and ordained the covenant of marriage to be honorable among all. Yet I hear in your plea a heart that leans heavily upon an earthly prop, and I would have you search and see whether your desire for this man has not all but swallowed up your longing for the Lord who gave Himself for you.

I have elsewhere said that where there is not mutual affection, it deserves not the name of marriage, but I must also ask: where there is not mutual affection between your soul and its Maker, can any earthly union bear the weight you would place upon it? You pray that his heart and mind be stirred toward you; but has your own heart been so stirred toward Christ that you can say with the apostle, “I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better”? Is He the crown of your hope, or has the hope of a husband and a father for your boys become the bright star that eclipses the Sun of Righteousness?

The Lord our God is a jealous God; He will not share the throne of your heart with an idol of clay. A divided heart is a disease that leaves the soul guilty, and a very small prick there will prove deadly. You ask that he see the value in you and view you as a perfect fit for his life, but have you considered what the Most High sees when He looks upon your divided desires? He who chose our inheritance for us gives the worldling husks, but He stops to find out the sweet fruits for His people. Dare you rest satisfied with a blessing that may only be the husks of His goodness, while the sweet fruit of full surrender to His will is left untasted?

True religion is a thing of desire, but is the desire of your heart first and foremost to fear the name of the Lord, to be conformed to His image, to love what He loves and hate what He hates? The description from Philippians stirs up a longing to be with Christ, does this longing burn within you, or has the desire for an earthly visit from this man become a more urgent flame? The heart perfumed with the love of God by the Holy Spirit is a bliss angels might envy, and when that love is shed abroad within, it sweetens every trial, brightens every dark providence, and enables a soul to laugh at impossibilities. Do you possess this sweet perfume, or has the sharper fragrance of an earthly affection overpowered it?

I do not bid you crush your natural hopes, but I do implore you to lay them upon the altar and let the fire of Divine love consume the dross. The Psalmist cried for guidance because the grace of God had been at work in his heart; naturally we are headstrong and desire our own way. But when the Holy Spirit pricks the heart, we feel the pain of our own waywardness and learn to bow with submission to the will of God. That submission is unerring guidance. You have prayed, “Thy will be done,” but examine whether you have not secretly added, “as long as it matches my own.” The Lord is not mocked; He sees the hidden corners of our motives.

He who is the Desire of all nations is Jesus Christ, and He alone can satisfy the deep craving you feel. So direct all that longing, all that passion, all that heart-yearning toward Him first. Seek to be so wedded to the Lamb that whether He gives or withholds this earthly relationship, you can say, “It is well with my soul.” Let your heart be pricked, not merely cut, but pierced through with a saving wound that brings you to the bleeding heart of Jesus. Then, and only then, will every other desire fall into its proper place, either granted in mercy or withheld in wisdom, with your soul resting in perfect peace.

I would have you desire with the apostle that the truth of God, godliness, virtue, and holiness be extended in your life and in the life of any who would join your family. Let your prayer be, “Lord, fashion me into a woman who fears Thy name above all else, and if Thou dost bring a husband, fashion him into a man after Thine own heart, a provider for my household and a loving stepfather, yet not my will, but Thine be done.” Then, when you have thus surrendered, delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart, for those desires will have been first cleansed and reshaped by the Spirit.

The Lord in His mercy give you an united heart, that you may not be found guilty for having a love that is divided between the Creator and the creature. Fix your hope wholly on the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ, and then may He grant you the secondary blessing of a godly marriage, if it be for His glory and your good. Until then, let the sweet constraint of His love compel you to live for Him alone, trusting His guidance, for while Christ pleads for you, your Father cannot forget you.

[Chrysostom]

You have laid your desires before God, and that is good, for He alone can provide what is truly best. Yet, consider what you ask. You pray for a spark of romance, for him to declare his love, to see you as a perfect fit. Such things, though they feel urgent, are not the substance of a godly union. When we seek a spouse, we must seek first the virtue of the soul, piety, gentleness, the fear of God. Not money, not charm, not the fluttering of the heart. The servant of Abraham, sent to find a wife for Isaac, prayed, “Whomsoever Thou wilt do Thou provide.” He did not ask for a spark or a declaration, but for a sign of kindness and character. Leave the matter to God, and do not be anxious over the shape of it. For if you are thoughtful about these details as a mere human, you show little trust in His providence. But if you entrust everything to Him, He will provide as God.

Marriage is honorable, and it is not wrong to desire a husband and a father for your children. Yet, marriage itself is not a source of holiness; it preserves the holiness you already have by keeping you from impurity. Do not imagine that a man’s declaration of love or a romantic stirring is proof of God’s will. Such feelings, stoked by the same passions that the theatre excites, have led many into adultery and broken homes. Seek a man who is grave, orderly, a true protector, not one who may offer sweet words but whose heart is untested. If God is shaping him into a provider, that is not a matter of romance but of steady, self-sacrificial character. Examine his fear of God, his gentleness, his contentment. Do not be in haste, for the passions of youth, if not restrained by a chaste and sober approach, can burn into what seems like love but is only wantonness.

Pray, then, but with these words: “Lord, if it be Your will, grant me a husband who fears You, who will be a head to my household as Christ is to the Church. If this man is not that, close the door, and silence my heart. I seek not a perfect fit for my fantasies, but a companion in the struggle for holiness.” Do not fix your mind on visits, on a petition, on marriage to a particular man, as though these were the only good. God’s ways are higher. Perhaps He will bring another, perhaps He will ask you to wait, perhaps He will call you to serve Him with an undivided heart, as Paul commends for widows, not because marriage is impure, but because it brings many cares. Whatever He chooses, trust that He knows what is best for your soul and your sons. Let your life be adorned not with dreams of romance but with good works, hospitality, and continual prayer. Then, whether married or not, you will have a dowry of virtue that He will honor, and your household will be blessed.

 

[Silas]

I can hear the hope and longing in your words, and I am glad you have brought this before the Lord. He invites us to cast every care upon Him, and you have done well to entrust these desires to His hands. Now, as you wait upon His will, I want to encourage you to press deeper into the truth that anchors our prayers.

The deepest need of any human heart is not first a relationship or a change in circumstance, but a wholehearted love for God Himself. He has demonstrated His love toward us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. That kind of love is not something we can ever buy or earn; it flows out to us freely and unquenchably. The question that matters most right now is not first whether this man will declare his love for you, but whether your own heart is so captivated by the love of Jesus that you think about Him constantly, yearn for Him, and find your gladness in His chambers. When He has first place, everything else falls into proper order.

The passages you have brought to mind speak repeatedly of a call to separation, a life that is distinctly different from the world. God says, “Come out from among them and be separate. I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters.” That call touches every affection and every alliance. A relationship built on a truly solid foundation must have real communion at its heart, a shared life in the Spirit that cannot exist where one partner is yoked to Christ and the other is not. I do not know the state of the man you mentioned, but I would ask you to let that scriptural principle weigh upon your heart. Genuine love does not hope that things will change later; it builds on what is already firm and true. A godly marriage is a picture of Christ and His church, and that picture requires two hearts that beat for Him first.

Even among believers, our love for one another depends on a work that only God can do. We cannot simply will ourselves to love as we ought; it takes His love being perfected in us. Often, what looks like love at first is really self-love dressed in pleasant robes. It longs for what it wants, but it has not yet been purified. That is why He calls us to walk in love as Christ loved us, a love that lays down life, that takes no account of wrongs, that shines light on everything. If this relationship is from Him, it will be marked by that kind of love, not just a spark of romance but a steady, holy, and patient care that mirrors His own.

Keep praying for His will, but let your prayer be enlarged. Ask Him first to fill your heart with such love for Him that you can honestly say, “Whom have I in heaven but You?” Ask Him to make you so secure in His fatherly love that you can trust His timing, even when silence lingers. Ask Him to give you a love for His Word and His ways that becomes the delight of your heart, so that you do what is pleasing in His sight not from duty but from deep affection. When you are rooted there, you will see more clearly whether this man is walking in the light or lingering in the shadows. You will discern whether the two of you share a common ground of meeting, not just in affection but in the truth of the gospel.

God’s love for you is greater than any human relationship could ever be. He proved it at the cross. If He opens this door, He will do so in a way that honors His name and nurtures your soul. If He closes it, that too is love. Either way, your life is in His hands, and He is faithful. I will pray that He fills your heart with peace, that He keeps you from being unequally yoked, and that your whole heart cries out for Him above all else. May He make you to walk in love, abiding in His Word, and may you know that you are, and always will be, His beloved child.
