We hear your heart’s cry for reconciliation and support in this personal relationship, and we lift this matter before the Lord with earnest prayer and biblical counsel. First, we must acknowledge that all healing, restoration, and wisdom come from God alone, and it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father (John 14:6). If you have not yet placed your trust in Jesus as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to do so, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Salvation is found in no one else, and it is the foundation upon which all true reconciliation and peace are built.
Father God, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, asking for Your divine intervention in this situation. Lord, You are the God of peace, and You desire for Your children to live in harmony with one another (Romans 12:18). We pray that You would soften hearts, remove bitterness, and replace it with Your love and forgiveness. If there has been sin—whether it be pride, unforgiveness, selfishness, or any other offense—we ask that You convict and lead to repentance, for You are faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9).
We must also address any areas where this relationship may not align with Your Word. If this is a romantic relationship, we strongly encourage you to examine whether it honors God. Marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, established by You for a lifetime (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If this relationship involves sexual intimacy outside of marriage, we must rebuke that sin, for the Bible clearly calls it fornication and warns that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God unless they repent (1 Corinthians 6:9-10, 18). If this is the case, we urge you to turn away from this sin, seek God’s forgiveness, and pursue purity, for He is faithful to restore and redeem.
If this relationship is not between a man and a woman, we must lovingly but firmly declare that same-sex relationships are contrary to Scripture (Romans 1:26-27, 1 Corinthians 6:9-10). God’s design for marriage and intimacy is clear, and we must submit to His will rather than our own desires. If this is the case, we pray for conviction, repentance, and healing, that you would find Your identity and fulfillment in Christ alone.
If this is a relationship with a family member, friend, or fellow believer, we pray for unity in the bond of peace (Ephesians 4:3). Help both parties to speak the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15) and to extend grace as You have extended grace to us. If there has been division, Lord, we ask that You would mend what is broken and restore what has been lost. Give wisdom to know how to move forward in a way that honors You.
We also pray for emotional and spiritual support during this time. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We rebuke any lies of the enemy that may be causing doubt, fear, or despair. Remind this dear one of Your promises: that You will never leave nor forsake them (Hebrews 13:5), that You work all things together for good for those who love You (Romans 8:28), and that Your plans for them are for peace and not for evil (Jeremiah 29:11).
Lord, we ask that You would surround this situation with Your presence. Fill hearts with Your Holy Spirit, who produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). May this relationship be a testimony to Your grace and power, drawing others to You.
Finally, we pray for wisdom and discernment. If reconciliation is not Your will—if this relationship is toxic, abusive, or leading away from You—give clarity and strength to walk away. Protect hearts from further harm and lead into the path of righteousness for Your name’s sake (Psalm 23:3).
In all things, we surrender this situation to You, trusting that You are working even when we cannot see it. May Your will be done, and may Your name be glorified. We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
