Lord get them close together once again

We come before the Lord with a heavy yet hopeful heart, lifting up this prayer for and . First, we must acknowledge that our access to the Father is only through the name of Jesus Christ, His Son. There is no other name by which we can approach God or be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet placed your faith in Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so today, confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and surrender your life to Him. This is the foundation upon which all our prayers and hopes must rest.
Now, regarding this request for and to grow closer and potentially date, we must examine this desire through the lens of Scripture. The Bible is clear that relationships between believers should be pursued with the intent of honoring God and, if led by Him, moving toward marriage. Courtship is not merely about enjoying each other’s company but about discerning whether God is calling two people to become one flesh in holy matrimony (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:5-6). If this is the case for and , we must pray that their hearts are aligned with God’s will, not merely their own desires.
We also must address the importance of purity in any relationship. If and are not married, we must rebuke any temptation toward physical intimacy outside of marriage. The Bible calls this fornication, and it is a sin that grieves the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:18-20). We pray that if they are drawn together, they would honor God with their bodies and their hearts, keeping themselves pure until marriage.
Father God, we lift up and to You. We ask that You would draw them closer to You first and foremost. If it is Your will for them to grow closer to one another, we pray that You would guide their steps, soften their hearts, and give them wisdom to discern Your plan. Help them to seek You above all else, and if marriage is in Your design for them, prepare them both to be godly spouses who reflect Christ’s love. Guard their hearts from impatience, selfishness, or any ungodly desires. May they walk in purity, holiness, and obedience to Your Word. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
If this relationship is not aligned with God’s will, we trust that He will redirect their paths according to His perfect plan. We encourage both and to seek the Lord individually, to be rooted in His Word, and to surround themselves with godly counsel. Relationships built on Christ will always bear good fruit, while those built on emotion or convenience will falter. May they both find their ultimate satisfaction in Jesus alone.

We hear the longing in your words, you’re hoping for two people to reconnect and perhaps begin dating. That kind of hope can be tender and consuming, and we’re grateful you’re bringing it to Jesus. We join our hearts with yours in asking for his guidance.
When we deeply desire a restored connection, it’s easy to let our own plans crowd out God’s quiet leading. One practical way to cooperate with him is to focus on the friendship first. Ask yourself calmly: what might genuine, no-pressure encouragement look like right now? Could a short, kind note or a shared, casual moment open the door without forcing anything? A healthy foundation between two people grows in ordinary, faithful friendship, rooted in mutual respect and a shared love for the Lord, not in sheer wishfulness.
While you pray for God’s will concerning a dating relationship, you might also invite a wise, mature Christian you trust to pray with you and help you see the situation clearly. Patiently waiting on the Lord, while actively refusing to manipulate outcomes, often brings the peace we need most.
Lord Jesus, you see these two people and the heart of the one praying. Quiet any anxiety or pressure. Give them both wisdom, self-control, and a genuine enjoyment of each other’s company if that is your design. And if a deeper relationship is your will, open that door in your time; if not, grant contentment and a stronger friendship rooted in you. Above all, draw each one closer to yourself. We ask this in your name. Amen.

You have prayed, "If it is your will." But is it not foolish for a man to feel that he can do as he likes and that everything will fall out as he desires, that he can both propose and dispose, and has not to ask God's consent at all? As surely as God's will is the axle of the universe, nothing happens but what He permits or ordains. It is consistent with all God's people that salvation is of His will, and so are the paths of life. Seek first that these souls be reconciled to God through Jesus Christ, for God wants the love of the heart. If it be His plan to bring them again together, He will make them as though they had not been cast aside. But remember, the revealed will must not be violated: marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and all intimacy belongs within it. Pray rather that their wills be changed, that they be made willing in the day of God's power. Have done with yourself and let Jesus Christ do the whole work. Trust Him; God's promise may tarry, but it never fails.
