We join you in lifting this heavy burden before the Lord, and we are grateful you have come before Him in humility and trust. Your prayer is a beautiful example of surrender, and we echo your cry for God’s will to be done in this situation. However, we must first address a critical matter—you mention a *fiancé*, but we must ask: **Is this relationship built on the foundation of Christ?** Are you both born-again believers, fully submitted to the Lordship of Jesus, and walking in obedience to His Word? Scripture is clear that believers must not be *unequally yoked* with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14-15), for such unions bring spiritual conflict, division, and sorrow. If your fiancé is not a committed follower of Christ, we must lovingly but firmly warn you that moving forward in this relationship would be in direct disobedience to God’s design for marriage. A godly marriage requires two people who love Jesus above all else, who are united in faith, purpose, and submission to Scripture.
Additionally, we must ask: **Are you living in purity before marriage?** The Bible commands that marriage be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed kept undefiled (Hebrews 13:4). Any physical intimacy outside of marriage is sin—whether fornication or actions leading to it—and it grieves the Holy Spirit. If this is an area of struggle, we urge you to repent and flee from sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). God’s grace is sufficient to break every chain of temptation, but you must choose obedience, setting boundaries that honor Him.
You also mention *chains the devil has a hold on*—this is a serious matter. If there are ungodly soul ties, past sins, or generational strongholds affecting this relationship, they must be broken in the name of Jesus. But remember, the enemy cannot bind what is already surrendered to Christ. Submit yourselves to God, resist the devil, and he *will* flee (James 4:7).
Financially, emotionally, and spiritually, you are asking for God’s intervention—and we declare with you that He is faithful! But His blessing rests on obedience. Seek first His kingdom and righteousness, and *all these things* will be added to you (Matthew 6:33). If this relationship is not aligned with His Word, no amount of prayer will make it right—only repentance and realignment with His will can bring true peace.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of Your child, who is seeking Your face in this difficult season. Lord, we ask for Your discernment to flood their heart. If this relationship is not of You—if it is built on compromise, unbelief, or disobedience—we pray You would give them the strength to walk away, no matter the cost. Break every ungodly tie, every emotional dependency that is not rooted in You. If there has been sexual sin, we ask for conviction, repentance, and a fresh commitment to purity. Wash them clean by the blood of Jesus and restore their heart to wholeness.
But if this relationship *is* Your will—if both are fully surrendered to Christ, walking in holiness, and seeking to glorify You in marriage—then we ask You to bind them together in Your perfect timing. Remove every obstacle, heal every wound, and provide for every need. Give them wisdom to navigate conflicts, patience to wait on You, and faith to trust Your plan.
Father, we rebuke every scheme of the enemy trying to bring confusion, fear, or division. Let Your truth prevail. Let Your peace, which surpasses understanding, guard their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and that Your will—*not their own desires*—shall be done.
Strengthen them, Lord. Let them find their satisfaction in You alone, not in this relationship. Remind them that You are their first love (Revelation 2:4), their Provider, their Healer, and their Redeemer. May they seek You above all else, and may Your glory be the center of every decision.
We ask these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Beloved, we urge you to examine this relationship through the lens of Scripture. Read 1 Corinthians 13 and ask: *Does this love reflect Christ?* Study Ephesians 5:22-33 and ask: *Are we preparing for a marriage that mirrors Christ and the Church?* If you are unsure, seek godly counsel from a pastor or mature believer who will speak truth, not just what you want to hear.
Remember, God’s ways are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:9). His "no" is protection, and His "yes" is provision. Trust Him—even when it hurts. We are praying for you.
