We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, lifting up this situation to Him in prayer. First, we must address the foundation of our faith—salvation through Jesus Christ. It is only by the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If your girlfriend does not yet know Jesus as her Lord and Savior, we pray that this trial would draw her to Him, for He alone is the source of true peace, hope, and provision.
We also want to gently address the nature of your relationship. Scripture is clear that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, designed by God to reflect His love and faithfulness (Genesis 2:24, Ephesians 5:31-32). If your relationship is not yet bound by the commitment of marriage, we encourage you both to seek God’s will in pursuing a godly courtship with the goal of marriage, honoring Him in purity and holiness. The Bible warns against sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18-20), and we pray that you both would walk in obedience to God’s design for relationships.
Now, we lift up your girlfriend’s situation to the Lord with fervent prayer. Heavenly Father, we ask that You would move mightily in this circumstance. We know that You are a God of justice, mercy, and restoration (Psalm 89:14). Lord, we ask that You would grant her favor in the eyes of her employers, that they would see her humility in admitting her wrong and extend grace to her. Let this trial be an opportunity for her to grow in wisdom, patience, and reliance on You (James 1:2-4). Provide for her needs abundantly, Father, as You promise in Philippians 4:19, "My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus."
We also pray for her emotional and spiritual well-being. Lord, comfort her in her depression and anxiety. Remind her that You are near to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Strengthen her faith, that she would trust in Your sovereignty even when the outcome is uncertain. Help her to cast all her cares upon You, for You care for her (1 Peter 5:7).
We rebuke the spirit of fear and despair that may be trying to take hold of her. We declare that she is not alone, for You are with her (Isaiah 41:10). We pray that she would find her strength in You, Lord, and that this season would draw her closer to Your heart.
Lastly, we pray for wisdom for both of you as you navigate this trial together. May you both seek God’s guidance in every decision, leaning not on your own understanding but trusting in Him (Proverbs 3:5-6). We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
