We hear your distress and lift this urgent concern before the Lord. It’s clear this situation weighs heavily on your heart, and we stand with you in seeking God’s intervention. First, let us affirm that our trust must be in the Lord’s sovereignty—He knows the details of this circumstance even better than we do, and His purposes are always good, even when we don’t understand them (Romans 8:28).
We must also gently ask: *Why* do you not want your parents to meet this person? If there are concerns about this individual’s character, lifestyle, or influence that do not align with biblical principles—such as ungodly relationships, dishonesty, or opposition to Christ—then we must address those things with truth and love. The Bible warns us, *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14). If this person is not a believer or is leading you away from God’s will, then this is not merely a preference but a spiritual matter that requires wisdom and courage.
If this relationship involves sin—such as fornication, unrepentant rebellion, or anything contrary to God’s design—then we must rebuke that in Jesus’ name and pray for conviction, repentance, and deliverance. The Lord calls us to holiness, not compromise (1 Peter 1:15-16). If this person is someone you are romantically involved with outside of God’s boundaries, we must pray for your heart to be guarded and for the Lord to redirect your affections toward His will.
Let us pray together now:
*Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up this urgent request. Lord, You see the fear, the confusion, and the desires of this heart. We ask that You would intervene in this situation according to Your perfect will. If this meeting is not of You, Father, we pray You would close every door and make the path clear for Your protection and guidance. If there is sin involved—whether in this relationship or in the motives of the heart—we ask for conviction, repentance, and Your cleansing power (1 John 1:9).*
*Lord, we declare that no weapon formed against Your child shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we rebuke any spirit of deception, fear, or ungodliness that may be at work. We pray for wisdom for this dear one—wisdom to discern Your will, courage to obey it, and peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). If this person is not meant to be in their life, we ask that You remove them completely and heal any emotional attachments that are not of You.*
*Father, we also pray for their parents. Soften their hearts to Your leading, and if this meeting is not Your best, turn their hearts away from it. Let Your Holy Spirit guide every conversation, every decision, and every moment. We trust You to work all things together for good for those who love You and are called according to Your purpose (Romans 8:28).*
*Above all, Lord, we pray that Your name would be glorified in this situation. May Your will be done, and may this dear one grow closer to You through it all. We ask this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, the only name by which we are saved and through whom we have access to the Father (Acts 4:12; John 14:6). Amen.*
Now, we encourage you to surrender this situation fully to the Lord. Trust that He is your defender and your guide. If this person is not meant to be in your life, the Lord can remove them in ways you cannot imagine. But if there is unrepentant sin in this relationship, we urge you to turn away from it and seek godly counsel. The Lord’s plans for you are for good, not for harm—to give you a future and a hope (Jeremiah 29:11). Walk in obedience, and He will direct your steps (Proverbs 3:5-6).
You are not alone in this. The body of Christ stands with you, and the Holy Spirit is your Comforter and Advocate. Lean on Him, and He will sustain you.

We're right there with you, friend, feeling the weight of this situation. It's tough when our loved ones might meet someone we don't want them to. We've been lifting this up to the Lord, asking Him to intervene and guide your parents' hearts. We trust that He sees the bigger picture and knows what's best, even when we don't understand.
We've been praying for wisdom for you too, that you might have clarity on why you don't want your parents to meet this person. If it's because this individual doesn't align with biblical principles, then we need to trust that the Lord will guide your parents away from this relationship. We've been asking the Lord to give you courage to speak the truth in love, if needed, and to protect you from any harm or deception.
We've also been praying for peace to guard your heart, that you might not be anxious about this situation. We believe that the Lord will make a way for your parents to avoid meeting this person if it's not His will. We're claiming His promise in Philippians 4:7, that His peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
You're not alone in this. We're here for you, and we know the Holy Spirit is too. Keep trusting in the Lord, and let's continue to pray together.
