We join you in lifting this earnest request before the Lord, for we know how deeply He cares about the desires of His children—especially when they align with His perfect will. The longing for companionship is one God Himself declared as "not good" for man to bear alone (Genesis 2:18), and we praise Him that you seek this not out of mere loneliness, but with a heart set on glorifying Christ through a marriage rooted in faith.
Yet before we pray, let us gently remind you—and all who read this—that the foundation of every godly request must be the name of Jesus Christ. You closed well with "in Jesus’ name," and we rejoice in that! But we must emphasize: there is *no* access to the Father apart from the Son (John 14:6), and salvation itself hinges on this truth. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus as Lord, repenting of sin and trusting in His death and resurrection for your salvation, we urge you to do so *first*—for how can two walk together in marriage unless they are both walking with Christ? (Amos 3:3). A godly spouse is a *gift*, but Jesus is the *Giver*, and He must be the cornerstone of your life before He builds your house (Psalm 127:1).
Now, regarding your loneliness: we understand its weight, but we also know God often uses seasons of solitude to deepen our dependence on Him. The psalmist cried, *"Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted"* (Psalm 25:16), yet even in isolation, David clung to the Lord as his *portion* (Psalm 16:5). Friend, if you are struggling with few earthly friends, let this drive you to the Friend who sticks closer than a brother (Proverbs 18:24). Cultivate your relationship with Christ *now*—through prayer, Scripture, and fellowship with believers—so that when God brings your spouse, you are both running *toward* Him together, not *to* each other for fulfillment only He can provide.
As for marriage: Scripture is clear that it is a *covenant* between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6), designed to reflect Christ’s love for His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). Thus, we pray *not* just for "a spouse," but for a *godly* spouse—a believer who fears the Lord (Proverbs 31:30), walks in obedience (1 John 2:3-6), and will sharpen you spiritually (Proverbs 27:17). We also pray for *your* preparation: Are you growing in holiness? Serving in the Church? Stewarding your time, finances, and gifts as if you were already married? Marriage exposes our selfishness; ask God to refine you *now* so you may love your future spouse as Christ loves you—sacrificially (Ephesians 5:25).
Lastly, we must address a cultural lie creeping into the Church: the idea that singleness is a "lesser" state. The apostle Paul *celebrated* singleness as a gift for undivided devotion to the Lord (1 Corinthians 7:32-35). If God has you single today, it is *not* a punishment or delay—it is an *assignment*. Use this time wisely. And if the Lord tarries in answering this prayer, will you still trust Him? His timing is perfect, even when it feels slow (Habakkuk 2:3).

**Let us pray:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who longs for a godly spouse. Lord, You who formed Adam and said, *"It is not good that the man should be alone"* (Genesis 2:18), we ask that You prepare a helper fit for them—a believer who loves You wholeheartedly, who will spur them on toward love and good deeds (Hebrews 10:24), and who will join them in the sacred work of building a home that honors You.
Father, we rebuked the enemy’s lies that would tempt them to settle for less than Your best—whether in impatience, compromise, or fear. Guard their heart from ungodly relationships, from emotional entanglements with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14), and from the snare of lust or fornication (1 Thessalonians 4:3-5). Let them walk in purity, saving themselves wholly for their spouse as a living sacrifice to You (Romans 12:1).
Prepare *them*, Lord. Reveal any idols in their heart—any way they may be seeking a spouse to fill a void only You can fill. Teach them to find their identity in Christ alone, so that when You bring their spouse, it is two *whole* people becoming one, not two broken people clinging to each other. Give them patience to wait on You, and joy in this season of preparation.
We ask for divine connections—godly friendships that strengthen them, mentors who speak wisdom, and a community that upholds them in prayer. If there is sin to repent of, convict them deeply. If there is fear, replace it with faith. If there is doubt, remind them of Your promises: *"Delight yourself in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4).
And Father, if it is Your will for them to remain single for a time longer—or even for life—grant them contentment in You alone (Philippians 4:11). Let them see singleness not as lack, but as an opportunity to serve You without distraction.
We bind every spirit of loneliness, rejection, or despair in Jesus’ name. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7), and let them rest in the truth that You are working all things for their good (Romans 8:28).
Finally, Lord, we ask that You *accelerate* this prayer in Your perfect timing. Let it not be a moment too early or too late, but exactly when You have ordained. And when the day comes, let it be undeniably *You*—a testimony of Your faithfulness that brings glory to Your name.
We ask all this in the powerful, matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

**Encouragement for You:**
While you wait, *actively* prepare:
1. **Pursue holiness.** A godly spouse will be drawn to a godly *you* (Proverbs 20:7).
2. **Serve in the Church.** Marriage is ministry; practice serving others now.
3. **Pray *for* your future spouse.** Intercede for their spiritual growth, purity, and preparation.
4. **Reject compromise.** Do not date unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14-15), and flee sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18).
5. **Trust God’s timing.** *"The Lord is good to those who wait for Him"* (Lamentations 3:25).
Stand firm, beloved. Your Heavenly Father sees your longing, and He *will* answer in the way that brings Him the most glory—and you the most joy. *"Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but when the desire comes, it is a tree of life"* (Proverbs 13:12). Your tree of life *is coming*. Wait well.
