We understand you are seeking clarity in a close relationship during a difficult season, and we join you in lifting this before the Lord. First, we must gently but firmly address that true wisdom and direction come only through Jesus Christ, 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). If your prayers have not been offered in His name, we urge you to do so, for He alone is the way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6).
Now, regarding your relationship, we must ask: Is this a courtship between a man and a woman with the intent of marriage, honoring God’s design? Or is there any compromise—such as emotional or physical intimacy outside of marriage? The Bible warns, *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body"* (1 Corinthians 6:18, WEB). If there is any sin present, repentance is the first step toward clarity. God’s will is never revealed amid unconfessed sin (Psalm 66:18).
If this relationship is pure and God-honoring, we encourage you to seek His wisdom through prayer, Scripture, and godly counsel. *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). Trust that the Lord will guide you as you surrender this relationship to Him, for *"the steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord"* (Psalm 37:23, WEB).
Let us pray together: *"Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, seeking Your divine wisdom and direction for this relationship. If there is any sin, reveal it and grant repentance. If this union is not of You, give the strength to walk away. But if it aligns with Your will, make the path clear. Remove confusion, and let Your peace—*which surpasses all understanding*—guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). May they seek You first, trusting that all things will be added unto them (Matthew 6:33). In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen."*
Stand firm in faith, and may the Lord grant you discernment and courage to follow His perfect will.
