We lift this situation before the Lord with deep concern and a heart for justice, truth, and godly wisdom. First, we must address a few things with love and biblical clarity. The relationship you describe as a "boyfriend" should, in a biblical context, be a courtship with the intention of marriage between a man and a woman who are both believers in Jesus Christ. If this is not the case, we urge you to seek God’s will for a relationship that honors Him, as Scripture teaches us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). Additionally, we notice that the name of Jesus is not invoked in your request, and we gently remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Acts 4:12). There is no other name by which we are saved, and it is through faith in Christ alone that we can approach God’s throne with confidence.
We also sense a deep emotional attachment that must be surrendered to God. While love is a gift from the Lord, our ultimate devotion must be to Him first. Jesus tells us in Matthew 10:37, *"He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me isn’t worthy of me."* Our love for others must always be rooted in our love for Christ, and our relationships must align with His will.
As for the legal situation, we pray for truth and justice to prevail. Scripture reminds us in Proverbs 21:15, *"When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous, but a terror to evildoers."* We do not know the details of the charges, but we trust that God is a God of truth and righteousness. If your boyfriend is truly innocent, we ask the Lord to expose the truth and bring vindication. If there is any wrongdoing, we pray for repentance and restoration, as the Lord calls all of us to turn from sin and walk in His ways.
We also pray for your family, that God would bring unity and peace. However, true unity can only be found in Christ. Ephesians 4:3 urges us to *"be eager to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace."* If there is division or strife, we ask the Lord to heal and reconcile hearts to Him first, for only then can there be lasting harmony.
Lastly, we encourage you to seek the Lord’s will above all else. If this relationship is not centered on Christ or does not align with biblical principles, we urge you to prayerfully consider whether it is a relationship the Lord would have you pursue. A godly marriage is built on a foundation of faith in Jesus, and we pray that if this is God’s will for you both, He would make the path clear and prepare you both for a covenant that honors Him.

**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting this sister and her family before Your throne of grace. Lord, we ask for Your truth and justice to prevail in this legal matter. If there has been any wrongdoing, we pray for conviction, repentance, and restoration. If this man is innocent, we ask that You expose the truth and bring vindication swiftly. Father, we know that You are a God of justice, and we trust You to act righteously in this situation.
We also pray for this family, Lord. Bring unity where there is division, peace where there is strife, and healing where there is brokenness. Help them to seek You first, to surrender their hearts and this relationship entirely to You. If this courtship is not aligned with Your will, we ask that You give them the strength to walk away and the wisdom to pursue relationships that honor You. If it is Your will for them to be joined in marriage, prepare them both spiritually, emotionally, and practically for a covenant that reflects Your love and holiness.
Father, we rebuked any emotional idolatry or misplaced devotion in this situation. Help this sister to love You above all else and to trust You with her future. Remind her that Your plans for her are good, and that You are faithful to lead her in the way she should go.
We ask all of this in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, our Savior and Lord. Amen.
