Relationship

We come before the Lord with heavy yet hopeful hearts, lifting up this request for the restoration of a relationship that has endured for many years. The longevity of this bond is a testament to God’s grace, but we must first seek His will above all else—even above our own desires for restoration. Scripture reminds us in **Proverbs 19:21**, *"Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails."* So we surrender this relationship into His hands, trusting that His plans are perfect, even when they differ from our own.

Before we pray, we must address something critical: this request does not specify whether this relationship aligns with biblical principles. If this is a romantic relationship outside of marriage, we urge you to examine it in light of Scripture. **1 Corinthians 7:2** tells us, *"But because of sexual immorality, let each man have his own wife, and let each woman have her own husband."* Courtship should be purposeful, honorable, and directed toward a Christ-centered marriage between a man and a woman. If this relationship has involved intimacy outside of marriage, we must call it what it is—fornication—and repent, for **1 Thessalonians 4:3-5** declares, *"For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own body in sanctification and honor, not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don’t know God."*

If this is a marriage, we pray for reconciliation, healing, and a renewed commitment to Christ at the center. **Ephesians 5:25** commands husbands, *"Love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly and gave himself up for it,"* and **Ephesians 5:22-24** calls wives to submit to their husbands as unto the Lord. Marriage is a covenant, not merely a contract, and God despises divorce (**Malachi 2:16**). Yet even in marriage, restoration must begin with repentance, forgiveness, and a shared pursuit of holiness.

If this relationship is not a marriage, we pray for clarity and conviction. If it is not honoring to God, we ask the Lord to redirect your hearts toward His design. True love does not lead into sin but points one another toward Christ. **2 Corinthians 6:14** warns, *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* If this relationship is with someone who does not share your faith in Christ, we urge you to reconsider its foundation. A believer’s highest loyalty must be to Christ, not to a relationship that pulls them away from Him.

Now, let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we lift this relationship before You, acknowledging that You alone are the Author of love and the Restorer of all things. Lord, if this bond is pleasing to You and aligns with Your Word, we ask for Your healing touch. Soften hearts, break down walls of pride and bitterness, and grant the grace of repentance where sin has taken root. If this relationship has strayed from Your design, we pray for conviction, wisdom, and the courage to obey You—even if it means letting go. Father, may Your will be done, not ours. If marriage is Your plan, prepare both hearts to honor You in it. If separation is necessary for holiness, grant strength and peace in the surrender.

We rebuke any spirit of division, unforgiveness, or deception that may be at work. **James 4:7** tells us to *"be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you."* So we stand in the authority of Jesus’ name and command every ungodly influence to flee. Let Your truth prevail, and let Your peace, which surpasses understanding, guard every heart and mind in Christ Jesus (**Philippians 4:7**).

Lord, we also pray for the individuals in this relationship. Draw them closer to You. If there is unconfessed sin, bring it to light and grant the humility to turn from it. Fill them with Your Spirit, that they may walk in love, patience, and self-control (**Galatians 5:22-23**). Remind them that no earthly relationship can satisfy the deepest longings of the soul—only You can. May they seek You first, above all else (**Matthew 6:33**).

We thank You, Father, for hearing our prayer. We trust in Your goodness, even when the path is unclear. May Your name be glorified in the outcome, and may both individuals find their ultimate fulfillment in You. In the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. **Amen.**

Finally, we encourage you to seek godly counsel—whether from a pastor, mentor, or biblical counselor—who can walk with you through this season. Surround yourself with believers who will speak truth in love and point you to Christ. **Proverbs 11:14** says, *"Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is safety."* Do not walk this path alone. And remember, whether God restores this relationship or redirects your steps, His plan for you is good. Trust Him, even when it’s hard. *"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you,” says the Lord, “thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you hope and a future"* (**Jeremiah 29:11**). Stay anchored in His Word, and He will lead you.
 
We're here with you, lifting this relationship to the Lord. We've been praying for restoration, but we also want to encourage you to seek God's will above all else. Remember, God's plans are always perfect, even when they don't align with our own. Let's trust Him to work in this situation, believing that He wants the best for both of you.

We're asking God to soften hearts and break down any barriers that may be hindering a genuine connection. We're also praying for wisdom and discernment, that you might both be guided by the Holy Spirit in this relationship. If there's sin involved, we're asking for repentance and forgiveness, and if there's confusion, we're asking for clarity.

We're claiming God's promise in Philippians 4:7, that His peace, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. We're also reminding you of God's love for you, as expressed in Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

Let's keep praying together, and let's also seek godly counsel from trusted mentors or pastors. We're here for you, and we believe that God is working in this situation. Trust in Him, and stay anchored in His Word.
