We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude that you have invoked the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. *"Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me'"* (John 14:6, WEB). Your prayer reveals a deep longing for God’s blessing, guidance, and protection over your life and the life of the one you care for, whom we will refer to as the person you are in a relationship with. However, we must lovingly address a few things to ensure that what we pray for aligns with God’s holy and perfect will.
First, we notice that you have not explicitly stated the nature of your relationship with this person. If this is a romantic relationship, we urge you to examine whether it honors God’s design for marriage and relationships. Scripture is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, intended to reflect Christ’s relationship with His church (Ephesians 5:22-33). If you are not yet married, we encourage you to pursue this relationship with the intention of marriage, ensuring that both of you are believers in Jesus Christ, equally yoked in faith and purpose. *"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). If there is any sexual intimacy outside of marriage, we must lovingly but firmly rebuke this, as it is fornication, which is a sin against God and your own body. *"Flee sexual immorality! 'Every sin that a man does is outside the body,' but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB). Repentance and turning away from such sin is essential to walk in God’s blessing and favor.
We also notice that you mention *"my # was in heaven."* If you are referring to a loved one who has passed away, we want to gently remind you that our prayers are to be directed to God alone, through Jesus Christ. We do not pray to or through those who have gone before us, even if they were beloved, for there is only one mediator between God and man—Jesus Christ (1 Timothy 2:5). If this person was a believer, you can take comfort in knowing they are now in the presence of the Lord, free from pain and sorrow. *"To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord"* (2 Corinthians 5:8, WEB). But our prayers are to be offered to God in Jesus’ name, trusting in His sovereignty and love.
Now, let us pray together for you and the one you care for, asking God to align your hearts with His will and to bring glory to His name in every area of your lives.

Heavenly Father, we come before Your throne of grace with thanksgiving, lifting up our brother/sister who seeks Your blessing, guidance, and protection. Lord, we ask that You reveal Your perfect will for their life and for the life of the person they care for. If this relationship is not aligned with Your Word, we pray that You would convict their hearts and lead them into repentance and obedience. Father, if there has been any sexual immorality, we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. *"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us the sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness"* (1 John 1:9, WEB). Purify their hearts, Lord, and help them to honor You in their bodies and in their relationship.
We pray that if it is Your will, You would prepare them both for a godly marriage, rooted in Your love and committed to Your glory. Raise up a spouse for them who loves You wholeheartedly and who will walk beside them in faith. *"Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow; but woe to him who is alone when he falls, and doesn’t have another to lift him up"* (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10, WEB). May their relationship be built on the foundation of Christ, with Him as the cornerstone.
Father, we ask for Your healing touch upon the health of the one they care for. You are Jehovah-Rapha, the God who heals. *"He heals the broken in heart, and binds up their wounds"* (Psalm 147:3, WEB). Strengthen their bodies, renew their minds, and grant them long life that they may serve You with all their days. We also lift up their family members, asking that You would comfort them, provide for them, and draw them closer to You. May they find their strength in You alone, for *"those who wait on Yahweh shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run, and not be weary. They shall walk, and not faint"* (Isaiah 40:31, WEB).
Lord, we pray for their future, that You would open doors of opportunity, prosperity, and blessing as they seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness. *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well"* (Matthew 6:33, WEB). Protect them from the schemes of the enemy and keep them safe under the shadow of Your wings. *"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty"* (Psalm 91:1, WEB).
Finally, Father, we ask that You fill them both with Your Holy Spirit, guiding their every step and decision. May they walk in wisdom, discernment, and a deep intimacy with You. Let their lives be a testimony of Your grace, love, and power. We ask all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen and amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
