Prayer request, please

We understand your heart’s longing for connection and the uncertainty that comes with waiting on someone who has been out of touch. It’s natural to desire reassurance, but we must first anchor our hopes in the One who never leaves us nor forsakes us—our Lord Jesus Christ. You’ve done well to bring this request in His name, for it is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father and the confidence that He hears us (John 14:13-14, 1 John 5:14-15). Let us remind you that even in silence, God is at work, and His timing is perfect. He may be using this season to draw you closer to Himself, refining your trust in His sovereignty over every relationship and circumstance.

That said, we must also consider the biblical principle of wisdom in relationships, especially when distance and time are involved. If this person abroad is someone you are emotionally invested in, we encourage you to examine the nature of this connection through the lens of Scripture. Are they a believer in Christ? If this is a romantic relationship, is it one that honors God’s design for marriage—a covenant between one man and one woman, rooted in faith and pursued with purity (2 Corinthians 6:14, 1 Corinthians 7:39)? If there has been any compromise—such as emotional dependency, ungodly attachments, or even the hint of fornication—we urge you to repent and realign this relationship under God’s authority. The silence you’re experiencing may be the Lord’s merciful way of protecting you from a path that does not honor Him.

Let us also consider whether this longing has become an idol in your heart. Do you find your peace and joy resting on their response rather than in Christ alone? The apostle Paul reminds us to be content in all circumstances, for our strength comes from the Lord (Philippians 4:11-13). If this person’s absence is causing anxiety or despair, it may be time to surrender this relationship entirely to God, trusting that He will either restore it in His way or redirect your heart to His perfect will.

We will pray with you now, asking the Lord to grant you clarity, patience, and a heart that seeks Him above all else. May He also bring conviction if there is any area of this relationship that needs repentance or realignment with His Word. If this connection is not of Him, we pray He would gently but firmly close the door, giving you the grace to release it. And if it is His will for this person to reconnect, may it be in a way that glorifies Him and draws both of you closer to Christ.

Heavenly Father, we lift up our sister/brother to You, knowing that You see the deepest longings of their heart. Lord, You are the God who hears and answers prayer, and we ask that You would move in this situation according to Your perfect will. If this connection abroad is one that honors You, we pray You would open the way for clear, godly communication to be restored. Give them patience to wait on You and wisdom to discern Your voice above all others. But Father, if this relationship is not aligned with Your Word—if it has become a distraction from Your purposes or a source of idolatry in their heart—we ask that You would lovingly but firmly sever it. Do not let them cling to what is not from You, but redirect their affections wholly to You.

We rebuke any spirit of fear, anxiety, or emotional bondage that may be tied to this situation. By the authority of Jesus Christ, we declare that their heart will find its rest in You alone. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, and remind them that You are their portion, their comforter, and their ever-present help (Psalm 73:26, Matthew 28:20).

If there has been any sin in this relationship—whether in thought, word, or deed—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Create in them a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within them (Psalm 51:10). Help them to walk in purity and wisdom, guarding their heart above all else, for it is the wellspring of life (Proverbs 4:23).

Finally, Lord, we pray that You would use this season to deepen their trust in You. Let them know, beyond any doubt, that You are enough. Whether this person reaches out or not, may they find their joy complete in You (John 15:11). We ask all these things in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
 
We're right there with you, friend, hoping and praying for that positive word from abroad. It's easy to feel uncertain when we're waiting on someone, isn't it? But remember, even when it feels like we're in silence, God is always at work. He sees you, He hears you, and He's got this.

Let's pray together, shall we? "Dear Lord, we lift up this situation to You. We ask that You would grant clarity and patience as we wait. If this connection is of You, we pray that You would open the way for clear, godly communication. But Lord, if this relationship isn't aligned with Your Word, we ask that You would lovingly guide us away from it. Help us to find our peace and joy in You alone, no matter what happens. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
 
I prayed that God in Jesus' name will answer your prayer request according to God's perfect love, wisdom, will, timing, grace, and mercy. God Loves You. Thank You Jesus!!!

Healed Spirit Soul And Body

 
We want to thank you for allowing us the honor of lifting your heart’s burden before the Lord alongside you. It has been a few days since you shared your request for renewed contact and good news from someone overseas, and we have continued to pray earnestly that God would open the way for communication, soften hearts, and bring reassurance in His perfect timing. How encouraging it is to know that our Heavenly Father hears even the quietest longings of our hearts and is faithful to act in ways that draw us closer to Him.

If you’ve received the positive word you’ve been waiting for, we would love to rejoice with you—please share your praise report so we can give God the glory together for His faithfulness. And if this season of waiting persists, we want you to know you are not alone. The body of Christ stands ready to persevere in prayer with you, lifting your request again before the throne of grace, where Jesus intercedes for us all. Sometimes the silence is the hardest part, but we trust that God is working even in the unseen, preparing hearts and aligning circumstances according to His will.

Let us continue to seek Him together, asking for patience to endure, peace that surpasses understanding, and the sweet assurance that He holds every detail of this situation in His hands. May you feel His presence near as you wait, and may His love surround you in ways that remind you—you are deeply seen and deeply loved by Him.

We are praying in Jesus’ Name.
