We lift up your daughter in this season of heartache and transition, knowing that the Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Two years is a significant investment of time and emotion, and the pain of separation can feel overwhelming, but we serve a God who heals the wounded and binds up their wounds. Your request for peace, comfort, and God’s will is beautifully aligned with Scripture, and we join you in crying out to the Father on her behalf.
First, we must address something critical: your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, through whom we have access to the Father. The Bible is clear that there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved, and it is only through Jesus that our prayers reach the throne of God. As it is written in John 14:6, *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'"* And in John 16:23-24, Jesus tells us, *"Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full."* We encourage you—and your daughter—to always approach God through the name of Jesus, for it is the name above all names, the only mediator between God and man (1 Timothy 2:5).
Now, to your daughter’s situation: we pray that the Lord would wrap His arms of comfort around her and remind her that she is never truly alone. Psalm 34:18 assures us, *"Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."* May she feel His presence in a tangible way, knowing that He collects every tear she sheds (Psalm 56:8). This season of singleness is not a punishment but an opportunity—a sacred space for the Lord to refine her, draw her closer to Himself, and prepare her for the future He has ordained. We pray that she would surrender her pain to Jesus, allowing Him to replace her sorrow with His peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
We also pray earnestly that your daughter would *find the Lord*—not just as a distant concept, but as her Savior, Lord, and closest confidant. If she does not yet know Jesus as her personal Lord and Savior, we urge her to repent of her sins and place her faith in Him alone for salvation. Romans 10:9-10 declares, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart, one believes resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made resulting in salvation."* There is no greater comfort, no deeper peace, and no surer foundation than a life surrendered to Christ. If she is already a believer, we pray that this trial would draw her into a deeper, more intimate walk with Him, where she finds her identity and worth in Him alone.
As for the ended relationship, we do not know the circumstances, but we trust that the Lord is sovereign over all things. If this relationship was not aligned with God’s Word—perhaps it was with someone who did not share her faith, or it involved emotional or physical compromise—then we praise God for His mercy in bringing it to an end. The Bible is clear that believers are to be *"unequally yoked"* with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14) and that our relationships should glorify God, not lead us into sin. If there was any sexual immorality involved, we gently but firmly rebuke it, for the Word of God calls us to flee from fornication (1 Corinthians 6:18) and to honor our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Repentance and purity are essential for walking in God’s will, and we pray that your daughter would seek His forgiveness and cleansing if needed, knowing that *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9).
We also pray that your daughter would use this time to seek the Lord’s will for her future. If she desires marriage, we ask that God would prepare her heart to be a godly wife one day, and that He would bring a man of God into her life—a man who loves Jesus above all else, who leads with humility and integrity, and who is committed to a Christ-centered marriage. But even more than that, we pray that her primary desire would be for *more of Jesus*. Marriage is a beautiful gift, but it is not the ultimate fulfillment—only Christ can satisfy the deepest longings of her heart. Psalm 73:25-26 reminds us, *"Whom do I have in heaven but you? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever."*
Finally, we encourage you to walk alongside your daughter during this time. Point her to Scripture, pray with her, and remind her of God’s faithfulness. Share with her the stories of how the Lord has been faithful in your own life. And if she is open to it, encourage her to seek biblical counseling or a strong, Christ-centered community where she can be discipled and supported.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious daughter who is hurting and feeling lost. Lord, You see her pain, and You know the depth of her loneliness. We ask that You would draw near to her, as You have promised, and comfort her with Your love. Replace her sorrow with Your joy, her fear with Your peace, and her confusion with Your clarity. Father, if she does not yet know You as her Savior, we pray that this season would be the one where she surrenders her life to Jesus Christ. Open her eyes to see His love displayed on the cross, and soften her heart to receive His gift of salvation.
Lord, we pray that You would heal her broken heart and restore her hope. If there was any sin in this past relationship, we ask for Your conviction and forgiveness. Cleanse her, Lord, and help her to walk in purity and holiness. Guard her heart and mind from bitterness, and fill her with Your Spirit so that she may reflect Your love to others.
Father, we ask that You would use this time to prepare her for the future You have planned. If it is Your will for her to marry, we pray that You would mold her into a godly woman who seeks Your kingdom first. Bring a man of God into her life who will love her as Christ loves the church, and who will lead her spiritually. But above all, Lord, may her greatest desire be for You. Satisfy her with Your presence, and let her find her identity and worth in You alone.
We rebuke the enemy’s lies that she is unlovable or that her future is bleak. Lord, remind her that You have plans to prosper her and not to harm her, plans to give her hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). Strengthen her faith, Lord, and help her to trust in Your timing.
We also lift up this mother who is interceding for her daughter. Give her wisdom, Lord, to speak Your truth in love. Use her as an instrument of Your peace and comfort. Bind this family together in unity and faith, and let their home be a place where Your presence dwells.
We ask all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
