We come before the Lord with you in this heartfelt request, lifting your desires and concerns to the Father who knows all things and works all things together for good for those who love Him. Your prayer reflects a deep longing for companionship, care, and a shared life with someone who aligns with your values, and we understand how deeply this weighs on your heart. It is beautiful that you seek God’s will in this matter, for He alone knows the plans He has for you—plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11, WEB).
Yet, as we pray with you, we must gently but firmly address something critical in your request. You have asked for a relationship with a woman who is a medical doctor, and while there is nothing wrong with desiring a spouse who shares a noble profession, we must ask: *Is this woman a believer in Jesus Christ?* The Bible is clear that believers are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). A marriage built on anything other than a shared faith in Christ is like building a house on sand—it will not stand when storms come. Your greatest need in a spouse is not her profession, her income, or even her ability to care for you in old age, but her devotion to Jesus Christ. A wife who fears the Lord is to be praised (Proverbs 31:30, WEB), and her worth is far above rubies. Without this foundation, no amount of compatibility in values, care, or companionship will bring the peace and unity that only Christ can provide.
We also notice that you mention your low income as a concern, fearing that it may hinder acceptance. But we remind you that the Lord does not look at outward appearances or worldly status. He looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7, WEB). If God has a spouse for you, He will provide, and He will ensure that her heart is drawn to *you*—not your income, not your worldly standing, but the man you are in Christ. Trust in His provision, for He who feeds the birds of the air and clothes the lilies of the field will certainly care for you (Matthew 6:26-33, WEB). Do not let fear or insecurity dictate your steps. Instead, seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Now, let us pray together for you, asking the Lord to guide your steps, to prepare your heart, and to make His will clear in this matter.

Heavenly Father, we lift our brother before You, knowing that You see his heart and his deep desire for companionship. Lord, You have said that it is not good for man to be alone (Genesis 2:18, WEB), and we ask that You would grant him the desire of his heart if it aligns with Your perfect will. Father, we pray that if there is a woman You have prepared for him, she would be a woman of faith—a believer who loves You with all her heart, soul, and mind. Let her be a helper suited for him, one who will walk beside him in the faith, encouraging him in the Lord, and together building a home that honors You.
Lord, we rebuke any fear or insecurity in his heart regarding his income or worldly status. You are his Provider, and if this desire is from You, You will make a way. Give him courage, not just to pursue a woman, but to pursue *Your will* above all else. Let him not be swayed by outward appearances or worldly standards, but let him seek a wife who is precious in Your sight.
Father, if this medical doctor is the one You have for him, we ask that You would make it undeniably clear. Open her heart to receive him, not based on what he can provide materially, but based on the love and commitment he can offer in You. Let their union be one that glorifies Your name, where both are submitted to Christ and to one another in love (Ephesians 5:21, WEB). But if she is not the one, Lord, close that door gently and redirect his steps toward the woman You *do* have for him—whether she is a doctor, a teacher, a homemaker, or any other profession. Let him not be fixated on a title or a role, but on a heart that beats for You.
We also pray for this medical doctor, if she is indeed the one. Draw her to Yourself, Lord. Let her find her fulfillment not just in her work, but in You. Soften her heart toward this man if it is Your will, and let her see him through Your eyes. But above all, let her seek You first, for only in You will she find true fulfillment.
Father, we ask for wisdom for our brother. Let him not rush ahead of You, but wait patiently for Your timing. Give him discernment to recognize Your voice and Your leading. And if marriage is not Your plan for him, Lord, fill the void in his heart with *Your* presence. Let him find his completeness in You, for You are enough.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. May Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Amen.

Brother, as you wait on the Lord, we encourage you to spend this season drawing closer to Him. Seek His face in prayer and in His Word. Ask Him to prepare you to be the husband He would have you be—one who loves as Christ loved the church, sacrificially and selflessly (Ephesians 5:25, WEB). Trust that if marriage is His will for you, He will bring it to pass in His perfect timing. And if He has called you to a life of singleness, know that He will be your portion and your strength.
Finally, we leave you with this promise: *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this"* (Psalm 37:4-5, WEB). May you find your delight in Him above all else. We are standing with you in prayer.
