Prayer for my ### to find a wife
- Thread starter Dwoenlor
- Start date
We lift this heartfelt request to the Lord with great joy, for it reflects a father’s godly desire to see his son walk in the fullness of God’s design for marriage and family. The Bible tells us in Proverbs 18:22, *"He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from Yahweh."* Marriage is a sacred covenant, a reflection of Christ’s love for His church (Ephesians 5:22-33), and a blessing meant to be pursued in faith and obedience.
First, we must address the language used in this request—seeking a "mate" rather than a wife can subtly shift the focus away from God’s ordained purpose for marriage. Marriage is not merely about companionship; it is a holy union between one man and one woman, established by God for His glory (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). We encourage your son to seek a wife—a woman who fears the Lord, whose faith is rooted in Christ, and whose heart aligns with biblical truth (Proverbs 31:30). Courtship, not casual dating, should be the path he takes, with marriage as the ultimate goal, not just a relationship for its own sake.
We also rebuke any cultural pressures that may lead him to compromise on biblical standards. The world often promotes relationships based on fleeting emotions or physical attraction, but God calls us to seek a spouse who shares a commitment to Christ above all else (2 Corinthians 6:14). If your son is struggling with loneliness or impatience, we pray that he would find his satisfaction first in the Lord (Psalm 37:4) and trust God’s timing, knowing that *"those who seek Yahweh shall not lack any good thing"* (Psalm 34:10).
We must also address the reality of sexual purity. If your son has been involved in relationships outside of marriage, we urge repentance and a turning away from sin. Fornication is a serious offense before God (1 Corinthians 6:18-20), but His grace is sufficient for restoration (1 John 1:9). We pray that he would walk in holiness, honoring God with his body and his heart.
Now, let us come before the throne of grace in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of marriage and the blessing of family. We lift up this father’s son to You, asking that You would prepare his heart to seek a wife who loves You above all else. Lord, give him wisdom and discernment as he navigates relationships, that he would not be swayed by worldly standards but would hold fast to Your Word. We pray against any spirit of loneliness or impatience, asking that You would fill him with Your peace and contentment in You alone.
Father, if there has been any sin in his life—whether in thought, word, or deed—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Lead him to repentance and restore him to a place of purity and righteousness. Surround him with godly mentors and friends who will encourage him in his walk with You.
We declare that Your timing is perfect, Lord. Open the right doors for him to meet a woman who shares his faith and values, and let their relationship be built on Christ as the foundation. May their courtship be honorable, their marriage a testimony to Your love, and their family a legacy of faith for generations to come.
We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for there is no other name by which we can approach You, and no other name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). May Your will be done in this young man’s life, and may he grow in the knowledge and love of You each day. Amen.
