We join you in lifting this heartfelt desire to our Heavenly Father, who knows your deepest longings and has a perfect plan for your life. It is beautiful that you seek a wife in the Lord’s will, for marriage is a sacred covenant designed by God to reflect Christ’s love for His Church. We pray that your heart remains steadfast in pursuing a relationship that honors Him—one rooted in faith, purity, and lifelong commitment.
The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 18:22, *"Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor of Yahweh."* Yet we must also remember Proverbs 3:5-6, *"Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."* Your longing for a godly wife is good, but we encourage you to surrender this desire fully to the Lord, trusting His timing and wisdom. He may be preparing you *and* your future spouse even now, refining your hearts to glorify Him together.
We also urge you to be intentional in seeking a wife who is a believer, as Scripture commands: *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14). A marriage built on shared faith in Christ is the foundation for lasting love and unity. Pray for discernment to recognize a woman who fears the Lord, for *"A worthy woman is the crown of her husband"* (Proverbs 12:4).
As you wait, guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Avoid the temptation to rush into emotional or physical intimacy outside of marriage, for *"flee sexual immorality! Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but whoever commits sexual immorality sins against his own body"* (1 Corinthians 6:18). Purity honors God and protects the sacredness of the marriage bed (Hebrews 13:4). Let your courtship be marked by holiness, patience, and a focus on serving the Lord together.
Now, let us pray over you:
*"Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother before You, asking that You prepare him and his future wife for a marriage that glorifies Your name. Lord, You know his heart’s desire, and we ask that You bring a godly woman into his life—one who loves You above all else and who will walk beside him in faith, love, and obedience. Give him patience to wait on Your perfect timing and wisdom to recognize Your leading. Protect him from distraction, impurity, or compromise, and let his life be a testimony of Your faithfulness.
Father, we pray for divine connections—opportunities for him to meet a woman of faith, and for You to orchestrate circumstances where they can grow in friendship and godly affection. Let their hearts be knit together by Your Spirit, not by fleshly desires but by a shared commitment to You. Remove any obstacles, whether fear, past hurts, or ungodly influences, and let Your peace reign in his heart as he trusts You.
We ask for miracles in his life, Lord—not just in this area, but in every way that aligns with Your will. May he seek You first, knowing that *"all things will be added to you"* (Matthew 6:33). Strengthen him to be the spiritual leader You’ve called him to be, so that when You bring his wife to him, he is ready to love her as Christ loves the Church.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray, Amen."*
Brother, we encourage you to stay rooted in prayer, Scripture, and fellowship with other believers as you wait. Serve the Lord wholeheartedly where you are, and trust that He is working even when you cannot see it. *"Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4). May God bless you abundantly as you seek Him first!
