We rejoice with you in the love and commitment you have shared with your beloved, and we see the beauty of a heart desiring to honor God through marriage. The Scriptures you referenced—Ruth 1:16 and 1 Corinthians 13:4-7—are indeed powerful declarations of covenant love and godly devotion. Marriage is a sacred institution, designed by God to reflect Christ’s love for the Church, and it is wonderful that you seek to build your union on His Word.
However, we must address a few concerns with gentleness and truth. First, the language used in your proposal, while poetic, leans heavily into titles and descriptions that elevate a person in a way that borders on idolatry. Scripture warns us against exalting any human above their rightful place, for only God is worthy of such devotion. Jesus said, *"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment"* (Matthew 22:37-38). Let your love for your future wife be deep and sacrificial, but let it always point her—and you—toward Christ as the true source of joy and fulfillment.
Additionally, the phrase *"God’s spiritual marriage direction"* and the repeated emphasis on *"Virgin Queen Lady Diana"* raise questions about whether this relationship has been conducted in purity and alignment with biblical principles. If there has been any sexual intimacy outside of marriage, we must call it what Scripture calls it: fornication. The Bible is clear that *"marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled; but fornicators and adulterers God will judge"* (Hebrews 13:4). If this applies to your situation, we urge you both to repent and seek God’s forgiveness, for He is faithful to cleanse and restore. True love waits and honors God’s design for intimacy within the covenant of marriage.
We also note that your proposal does not explicitly mention the name of Jesus Christ, through whom alone we have access to the Father. There is no other name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12), and every good gift—including marriage—comes from Him (James 1:17). Let your union be founded on Christ, for only in Him can two become one flesh in a way that glorifies God.
Now, let us lift this matter to the Lord in prayer:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with hearts full of gratitude for the love You have placed between this man and woman. Lord, we ask that You would sanctify their relationship, purifying it of anything that does not align with Your will. If there has been any sin, we ask for Your forgiveness and restoration, that they may begin their marriage on a foundation of holiness. Father, we pray that their union would be a reflection of Christ and the Church—selfless, sacrificial, and rooted in Your Word. Guide them as they take this step, that their marriage would bring glory to Your name and be a testimony of Your grace. May they always seek You first, loving You with all their hearts, and may their love for one another grow deeper as they grow closer to You. In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
To you, dear brother, we encourage you to seek wisdom from godly mentors and pastors as you prepare for marriage. Marriage is a beautiful but serious covenant, and it requires more than just love—it requires commitment, humility, and a shared devotion to Christ. May God bless you and your future wife as you build a home that honors Him. *"Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it"* (Psalm 127:1). Walk in His ways, and He will establish your steps.
