We come before the Lord with hearts full of gratitude and petitions, lifting up your requests in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and by which we are saved. As Scripture declares, *"There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12, WEB). We are thankful you acknowledged Jesus in your request, for He alone is worthy of our praise and trust.
First, we pray for the resolution regarding the manufacturer and the disc you purchased. The Lord calls us to honesty and fairness in all our dealings, and we trust that He will bring justice where it is due. *"You shall do no injustice in judgment. You shall not respect the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty; but you shall judge your neighbor in righteousness."* (Leviticus 19:15, WEB). Father, we ask that You intervene in this matter so that the manufacturer no longer possesses the disc and that a full refund is issued promptly. May this situation be resolved with integrity, and may it serve as a reminder that our trust is in You, not in material possessions or human systems. Teach us to seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, knowing that all things we need will be provided (Matthew 6:33).
We also lift up your upcoming interviews—one online and one face-to-face. The Lord has gifted you with skills and abilities, and we pray that He opens the right door for employment according to His will. *"Commit your works to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* (Proverbs 16:3, WEB). Father, we ask that You go before our sister in these interviews, granting her favor with those in authority. May her words be seasoned with grace, and may her answers reflect the wisdom that comes from You. If it is Your will, let one of these opportunities be successful so she may begin working in a place that honors You and aligns with Your purposes for her life. We rebuke any spirit of anxiety or fear, for You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7).
We rejoice with you that the door stopper has finally been installed and is functional. Even in small things, we see the Lord’s provision and care. It is a reminder that He is attentive to the details of our lives, and we thank Him for guiding you to a local solution that works. Let this be an encouragement that God is faithful in both the big and small matters we entrust to Him.
Now, we must address the portion of your request regarding your relationship with the person you met last Saturday. Scripture is clear about the sanctity of marriage and the relationships that lead to it. We are called to pursue relationships that honor God, and this means seeking a godly spouse within the context of biblical marriage—a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman. Courtship should be intentional, with the goal of marriage between believers who are equally yoked in their faith (2 Corinthians 6:14). We urge you to examine this relationship closely: Is this person a believer in Jesus Christ? Are you both committed to purity, honoring God with your bodies and your hearts? *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s."* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB).
If there is any sexual immorality—whether in thought, word, or deed—we strongly rebuke it in the name of Jesus. Repentance and a turn toward holiness are required, for *"the body is... for the Lord, and the Lord for the body"* (1 Corinthians 6:13). Marriage is honorable, and the marriage bed is undefiled, but this blessing is reserved for the covenant of marriage alone (Hebrews 13:4). We pray that if this relationship is of God, He will make it clear and guide you both toward a Christ-centered marriage. If it is not of Him, we pray for the strength to walk away and trust in His perfect plan. *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB).
Finally, we thank the Lord with you for the provision of the CD set you were able to acquire. It is a joy to see His faithfulness in the promises we make and the desires He places in our hearts. May this collection bring glory to Him and serve as a reminder of His goodness.
**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude and trust in the name of Jesus Christ. We thank You for Your provision in the small and large matters of life—the door stopper, the CD set, and the financial means to acquire what was needed. Lord, we ask for Your intervention with the manufacturer, that justice would prevail and a refund would be issued swiftly. We pray over the upcoming interviews, asking that You open the right door for employment, granting favor and wisdom. May our sister’s skills and gifts be used for Your glory in the workplace You prepare for her.
Father, we lift up the relationship that has begun to develop. We pray for discernment and wisdom. If this relationship is not aligned with Your Word, give her the strength to walk away. If it is Your will, let it be a courtship that honors You, leading to a godly marriage between a man and a woman who love You above all else. Convict both hearts of any sin, and draw them to repentance and purity. May their friendship be rooted in Christ, and may You be the foundation of any future marriage.
Lord, we ask that You guard her heart and mind, filling her with Your peace as she trusts in You. Remind her that Your plans for her are good, to give her a hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11). We rebuke any fear, anxiety, or temptation that does not align with Your will. Cover her in Your love and protection, and let her life be a light that points others to You.
In the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
