We hear your heart’s cry for companionship and love, and we stand with you in prayer, lifting this request before the Lord. First, we must address the foundation of all our prayers—faith in Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father, and it is by His blood that we are redeemed and set free from every burden. Jesus said in John 14:6, *"I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."* If you have not already, we encourage you to surrender your life to Him, for He alone can satisfy the deepest longings of your heart.
Now, regarding your desire for a godly spouse, we rejoice that you are seeking a man after God’s own heart—a "Boaz" as you mentioned, a man of integrity, kindness, and faithfulness. The Lord delights in blessing His children with good gifts, and marriage is a sacred covenant designed by Him. Proverbs 18:22 tells us, *"Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord."* However, we must also guard our hearts against impatience or settling for less than God’s best. The world may pressure us to accept relationships that do not honor Him, but we are called to wait for His perfect timing and His perfect choice.
We rebuke the spirit of neglect and loneliness that has weighed on you, declaring in the name of Jesus that it has no place in your life. The enemy may have tried to make you feel overlooked or unworthy, but God’s Word says in Psalm 34:18-19, *"The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all."* You are not forgotten. You are deeply loved by the Creator of the universe, and He has a plan to prosper you, not to harm you (Jeremiah 29:11).
We also must address the language in your request about not wanting to be "number ###" or involved in relationships that are "sideways." If you are referring to past experiences of being mistreated, used, or involved in relationships that did not honor God—such as fornication or emotional unfaithfulness—we urge you to repent and turn away from those patterns. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5 warns us, *"For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor, not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God."* God’s design for intimacy is within the covenant of marriage between one man and one woman. Anything outside of that is sin and will only bring heartache.
Let us pray for you now:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious sister who is seeking Your will for her life. Lord, You know the desires of her heart, and we ask that You would align them with Your perfect plan. Father, we declare that she is not neglected, not forgotten, and not without hope. You have promised in Your Word that You will never leave her nor forsake her (Hebrews 13:5), and we stand on that promise today.
Lord, we ask that You would send a Boaz into her life—a man after Your own heart, a man of godly character, integrity, and love. Prepare her heart to recognize him and his heart to recognize her. Remove any distractions, any past hurts, or any ungodly influences that would hinder this divine connection. We rebuke the spirit of loneliness and despair, and we declare that joy comes in the morning (Psalm 30:5). Let her walk in the confidence of who she is in Christ, knowing that she is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14).
Father, if there has been any sin in her past—whether in thought, word, or deed—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Wash her clean by the blood of Jesus and set her free from any guilt or shame. Help her to walk in purity and holiness, guarding her heart and mind as she waits for Your best. We pray against any spirit of impatience or desperation that would cause her to settle for less than Your will. Give her the strength to wait for the spouse You have prepared for her, and let her trust in Your timing, for You make all things beautiful in Your time (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
Lord, we also pray for her emotional healing. If she has been hurt or rejected in the past, we ask that You would bind up her wounds and restore her soul. Let her find her identity and worth in You alone, not in the approval of others or in a relationship. Fill her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7), and let her rest in the assurance that You are working all things together for her good (Romans 8:28).
We declare that the season of "Bozo" is over! No more relationships that do not honor You, Lord. No more compromising or settling. We speak life, favor, and divine connections over her. Let her path cross with the man You have ordained for her, and let their union be a reflection of Christ and the Church—a marriage built on love, respect, and mutual submission to You.
Thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your goodness and Your faithfulness. May this sister walk in the fullness of Your blessings, and may her life bring glory and honor to Your name. In Jesus’ mighty name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and in His Word. Spend time in worship, for as you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you (James 4:8). Surround yourself with godly community—believers who will encourage you, pray for you, and hold you accountable. And remember, your worth is not defined by your relationship status but by the fact that you are a child of the Most High God. He loves you with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3), and He will never leave you empty-handed.
If you are not already, consider joining a Bible-believing church where you can grow in your faith and meet other believers who share your values. The right man will not only love you but will also love the Lord with all his heart, soul, mind, and strength (Mark 12:30). Wait for him, and do not compromise. God’s best is worth the wait.
