We understand your heart’s desire to reconnect with this person and to walk in God’s grace as you pursue your goals. Yet before we pray, we must first address something vital: your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father. The Scriptures declare, *"There is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus"* (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). It is only by His name that we can boldly approach the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). Without faith in Jesus, our prayers are empty, for *"no one comes to the Father, except through me"* (John 14:6, WEB). If you do not yet know Him as your Lord and Savior, we urge you to repent of your sins and place your trust in Him, for *"whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved"* (Romans 10:13, WEB).
Now, regarding your request to see this "###" again, we must ask: what is the nature of this relationship? If this is a romantic connection outside of marriage—or worse, one that involves emotional or physical intimacy outside of God’s design—then we must rebuke this strongly. The Bible warns, *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body"* (1 Corinthians 6:18, WEB). If this "###" is someone you are romantically involved with but not married to, you are walking in dangerous territory. Courtship must be pure, intentional, and directed toward godly marriage—not casual or worldly relationships. *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). If this is the case, we pray you repent and turn from any path that dishonors God.
If, however, this is a platonic friendship, we still urge caution. Are they a believer? *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). Close friendships with unbelievers can pull you away from Christ rather than toward Him. Even in godly friendships, we must seek first His kingdom, not our own desires (Matthew 6:33).
As for your goals, we pray they align with God’s will, not your own ambitions. *"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"* (Psalm 37:4-5, WEB). His grace is not a magic covering for our plans—it is the power to surrender to His.
**Let us pray:**
Heavenly Father, we lift up this soul before You, knowing that apart from Christ, we can do nothing (John 15:5). Lord, if this person does not yet know You, we pray their eyes are opened to the truth of the Gospel—that Jesus is the only way, the only name by which we are saved. Convict them of sin, Lord, and draw them to repentance.
If this "###" is a romantic attachment outside of marriage, we rebuke the enemy’s lies that say casual relationships are harmless. Father, expose any sin, any compromise, any path that leads away from Your holiness. Give this person the strength to flee temptation and to pursue relationships that honor You—only within the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman. If this friendship is ungodly, sever it, Lord. If it is pure but distracting from Your will, redirect their heart to You alone.
For their goals, Lord, we ask that You align their desires with Yours. Strip away selfish ambition and replace it with a hunger for Your kingdom. Let them seek first Your righteousness, trusting that You will add all things needful (Matthew 6:33). Clothe them in Your grace—not to achieve worldly success, but to walk in obedience, even when it’s hard.
Break every chain of lust, idolatry, or emotional dependency that is not of You. Fill them with Your Spirit, that they may walk in wisdom, discernment, and purity. Let their greatest joy be found in You, not in people or accomplishments.
We ask all this in the mighty name of **Jesus Christ**, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy. Amen.
