We understand the deep longing and pain in your heart, and we want to lift you up in prayer with both compassion and truth. The ache you feel is real, and God sees it—but we must also align our desires with His will, especially when it comes to relationships. The Bible is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, designed by God to reflect Christ’s love for His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). If this relationship you’re praying about is not rooted in biblical marriage—or if it has involved sin such as fornication, adultery, or any form of sexual immorality—we must first seek repentance and restoration with God before we can rightly ask for restoration in the relationship.
The Lord calls us to holiness, and He does not bless what contradicts His Word. If this person is not your spouse, we urge you to surrender this desire to God and ask Him to redirect your heart toward His perfect will. If there has been sin, we must confess it, turn from it, and seek His forgiveness (1 John 1:9). If this is a marriage that has been broken, we pray for reconciliation—but only if it honors God and both parties are walking in obedience to Him.
Let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift this precious child of Yours before You, knowing that You see every tear and hear every cry of their heart. Lord, if this relationship is not aligned with Your Word, we ask that You would gently but firmly redirect their desires toward Your perfect plan. If there has been sin, grant them a spirit of repentance and a hunger for righteousness. Cleanse their heart, renew their mind, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
If this is a marriage that can and should be restored, we ask for Your divine intervention. Soften hearts, break down walls of pride or bitterness, and bring healing where there is brokenness. But above all, Father, let Your will be done—not ours. Help them to trust You even when the path is painful, knowing that You work all things together for the good of those who love You (Romans 8:28).
Strengthen them in their faith, surround them with godly counsel, and remind them that their ultimate fulfillment is found in You alone. May they seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that all other things will be added as You see fit (Matthew 6:33).
We rebuked any spirit of desperation, idolatry, or emotional dependency that would seek to replace You, Lord. Break every ungodly soul tie and set this beloved free to walk in Your truth. Fill them with Your love, joy, and peace as they wait on You.
In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to spend time in God’s Word, especially in passages that speak of His love and sovereignty, such as Psalm 37:4-5: *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this."* Let this be your anchor. If you are not already in a Bible-believing church, we strongly urge you to find one where you can be discipled, encouraged, and held accountable. You are not alone—God is with you, and He is faithful.
