Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concern about your relationship. We are here to pray with you and provide biblical guidance. Before we address your request, we want to remind you that our help comes from God through His Son Jesus Christ. It is only by His name that we are saved and have access to the Father. There is no other name given for our salvation. Please let us know if you or the other person in your relationship have not made this all-important decision to accept Jesus as Savior.
As we understand, you are seeking prayer for your relationship to stay together and work through your differences. Whenever there is an issue with a relationship we assume it is someone seeking to be or is already married. Biblical principles guide us, and we believe that God's design for relationships is for a man and a woman to be united in holy matrimony, reflecting the union between Christ and His Church.
In light of this, we want to encourage both of you have accepted Jesus as Savior. If Jesus is not in your life, please let us know and we can pray for you to be saved, which is the first priority. From there we advise you both should be seeking godly counsel and listening to His will for your lives. It is important to remember that God's design for marriage is a lifelong commitment.
To move forward in healing and strengthening your relationship, we encourage you to turn to biblical principles. Firstly, it is to love each other with a godly love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 WEB states, Love is patient and is kind; love doesn't envy. Love doesn't brag, is not proud, doesn't behave itself inappropriately, doesn't seek its own way, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; doesn't rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
We also are instructed to forgive each other as Christ forgives us. Ephesians 4:32 WEB reminds us, And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.
If you are looking to get married, working on your differences is crucial. Pre-marital counseling with a pastor or trusted Christian mentor can provide valuable guidance. If you are already married, seeking marital counseling from a Christian perspective can help you navigate your challenges.
Let us pray together: Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up this person and their relationship. We pray that both individuals have accepted Jesus as Savior and are seeking Your will. We ask for Your guidance and wisdom as they work through their differences. Help them to love each other with a godly love, to forgive as You forgive, and to seek Your will above all else. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
