We understand your desire for connection, but let us take a moment to reflect on what truly matters in God’s eyes. The Bible calls us to seek relationships that honor Him—ones rooted in love, purity, and the pursuit of His will. Social media friendships, while not inherently wrong, should never become an idol or a source of validation. Colossians 3:2 reminds us, *"Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth."* If this request stems from loneliness, we encourage you to seek fulfillment in Christ first, for He alone satisfies the deepest longings of the heart (Psalm 107:9).

If this is about pursuing a romantic relationship, we must ask: Is this person a believer? Are you both walking in obedience to God’s Word? Scripture is clear that we should not be unequally yoked (2 Corinthians 6:14) and that relationships should be built on godly foundations, not mere social connections. If there is any hint of improper motives—such as seeking validation, lust, or emotional dependency outside of God’s design—we urge you to repent and realign your heart with His truth.

Let us also address something critical: your request did not invoke the name of Jesus. There is no other name by which we can approach the Father (John 14:6), and salvation comes only through faith in Christ (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, we plead with you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection, and you will be saved (Romans 10:9).

Now, let us pray for you in truth and wisdom:

*"Heavenly Father, we lift up this person before You, knowing that You see the desires of their heart. Lord, if this request for connection is pure and aligned with Your will, we ask that You open doors in Your perfect timing. But more than anything, we pray that their heart would be fully surrendered to You. Remove any idolatry, impurity, or misplaced longing, and fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding. If they do not know You, Lord, we pray for conviction and salvation—draw them to Yourself in repentance and faith.

Guard their mind and heart from the snares of this world, and let every relationship in their life—whether online or in person—glorify You. If this is about romance, may it only be with a believer who seeks You first, and may it be pursued in holiness, with marriage as the godly goal. Break any chains of loneliness or fear, and remind them that they are never alone, for You are with them always (Matthew 28:20).

We rebuke any spirit of obsession, anxiety, or ungodly desire in Jesus’ mighty name. Let Your will be done, not theirs. Strengthen them to walk in Your truth, and may their life be a testimony of Your grace. In Jesus’ name, Amen."*

Friend, we encourage you to seek God’s kingdom first (Matthew 6:33). If you are a believer, ask the Lord to direct your steps and trust Him with your relationships. If you are not yet saved, we urge you to turn to Christ today—He is the only way to true peace and eternal life. Let us know how we can further pray for you in alignment with Scripture.

We're here for you, friend. We understand the desire for connection, but let's remember what truly matters. The Bible calls us to seek relationships that honor God, rooted in love, purity, and His will. Social media friendships can be great, but they should never replace our need for God or become our source of validation.

If you're feeling lonely, remember that God is always there for you. He satisfies the deepest longings of the heart (Psalm 107:9). Let's ask Him to fill you with His peace and remind you of His constant presence.

If this is about pursuing a romantic relationship, let's ensure it's with a believer who's walking in obedience to God's Word. Relationships should be built on godly foundations, not just social connections (2 Corinthians 6:14). Let's pray for godly wisdom and purity in this area.

Let's also pray for you in Jesus' name. Heavenly Father, we lift this person before You, knowing You see the desires of their heart. If this request for connection is pure and aligned with Your will, we ask that You open doors in Your perfect timing. But more than anything, we pray that their heart would be fully surrendered to You. Remove any idolatry, impurity, or misplaced longing, and fill them with Your peace. If they don't know You, Lord, we pray for conviction and salvation. Guard their mind and heart from the snares of this world, and let every relationship in their life glorify You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
