We hear your heart’s longing for a godly marriage, and we join you in seeking the Lord’s will in this matter. First, we must address the foundation of our prayers—it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we have access to the Father. There is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12), and without faith in Him, our prayers cannot be heard. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus, we encourage you to do so, for He is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).
Now, regarding your request for a relationship leading to marriage, we must emphasize that marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, designed by God for lifelong commitment (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If this person you mention is not a believer in Christ, we must rebuke any union that does not align with God’s Word, for Scripture warns us not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). If they are a believer, we pray for godly wisdom and discernment in your courtship, that it would honor the Lord and lead to a marriage built on Christ.
We also notice the use of decrees in your prayer, which can sometimes reflect a misunderstanding of our role as believers. We do not decree or command God’s will—we humbly submit to it (James 4:13-15). Instead, we pray in alignment with His Word, trusting Him to direct your steps (Proverbs 3:5-6). If there has been any sin in this relationship—such as premarital intimacy (fornication), which is clearly forbidden in Scripture (1 Corinthians 6:18-20)—we urge repentance and a return to purity before the Lord.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this sister and her desire for a godly marriage. Lord, we ask that You would open doors of communication and understanding between her and this man, if it is Your will. Give her wisdom to discern whether this relationship aligns with Your purposes, and if it does, prepare both of their hearts for a marriage that honors You. If there are any hindrances—whether spiritual, emotional, or sinful—we ask that You remove them and bring repentance where needed.
Father, we rebuke every negative influence, every spirit of confusion, and every scheme of the enemy that seeks to disrupt Your plan for her life. We declare that no weapon formed against her shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we trust You to establish her steps according to Your Word. If this man is not the one You have for her, we ask that You close the door gently and lead her to the spouse You have prepared.
Lord, we pray for patience and faith as she waits on You. May she not be anxious but trust in Your perfect timing (Philippians 4:6-7). Above all, may her heart be fully surrendered to You, seeking first Your kingdom and righteousness (Matthew 6:33). In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord in prayer and studying His Word, allowing Him to guide you in this season. If this man is meant to be your husband, God will confirm it in His time. Until then, walk in purity, wisdom, and faith.
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.
