We hear your heartache and concern, and we stand with you in prayer, seeking God’s wisdom and intervention in this situation. First, let us affirm that your desire for a godly marriage is beautiful and aligns with Scripture. The Bible tells us, *"He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord"* (Proverbs 18:22). Marriage is a sacred covenant, designed by God to reflect Christ’s love for the Church (Ephesians 5:22-33), and it is worth fighting for with prayer, patience, and faith.
We must also address the reality of the spiritual battle at play here. The enemy seeks to destroy what God has ordained, and these influences in your future husband’s life are not coincidental. The Bible warns us, *"Be sober and self-controlled. Be watchful. Your adversary, the devil, walks around like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour"* (1 Peter 5:8). These women may be acting as tools of division, and we must rebuke their influence in the name of Jesus. We declare that no weapon formed against your future marriage will prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and we command every ungodly soul tie or distraction to be broken in Jesus’ name.
We also encourage you to examine your own heart and actions in this season. Are you pursuing godly wisdom and patience, or has frustration or fear taken root? The Bible tells us, *"A gentle and quiet spirit is of great price in God’s sight"* (1 Peter 3:4). While it is natural to feel hurt or concerned, we must guard our hearts against bitterness or control, trusting God to work in your future husband’s life. Pray for him—not just against these influences, but for his heart to be drawn closer to the Lord and to you as his future wife. *"The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous person avails much"* (James 5:16).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this sister and her future husband. Lord, we ask that You would shield and protect him from every ungodly influence and distraction. Break every soul tie, every flirtatious spirit, and every temptation that seeks to pull him away from Your will for his life. We declare that he is covered by the blood of Jesus, and no weapon formed against him—or their future marriage—will prosper.
Father, we ask that You would soften his heart toward You and toward his future wife. Give him discernment to recognize the enemy’s schemes and the strength to resist temptation. Surround him with godly men who will speak truth into his life and hold him accountable. Lord, we also ask that You would guard this sister’s heart. Fill her with Your peace, patience, and trust in Your timing. Help her to love him as You love the Church—with grace, humility, and unwavering faith.
We rebuke every spirit of division, lust, and ungodliness in this situation. We declare that Your will for their marriage will prevail, and that they will both be drawn closer to You and to one another. Strengthen their communication, deepen their trust, and align their hearts with Your purpose. May their relationship be a testimony to Your faithfulness and glory.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your perfect timing and Your perfect plan. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
In the days ahead, we encourage you to remain steadfast in prayer and to seek godly counsel if needed. Surround yourself with believers who can support and encourage you, and continue to trust in the Lord’s faithfulness. *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight"* (Proverbs 3:5-6). God is working even when we cannot see it, and He will not abandon those who seek Him with all their heart.
