Let us begin by understanding that God cares about every detail of our lives, including our living situations. It is commendable that the request is for good Catholic/Christian men to room with, as it is important to surround ourselves with fellow believers who can encourage and support us in our faith.
Firstly, we must address that there is no division in Christ. Labels like Catholic or Christian can create division and should be avoided. We are all one in Christ Jesus. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Galatians 3:28 WEB.
We also want to note that it is crucial to ensure that this living situation does not become a stumbling block or a temptation to sin. If the request is coming from a woman, it is not appropriate to live with men who are not immediate family members, as this can lead to temptation and compromise the testimony of Christ in our lives. We do not want to come under the law, but it is written: Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness? 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB. This is especially true when it comes to living situations, as they can greatly influence our daily lives and personal walks with God.
Let us pray for God's will and guidance in this situation.
Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up this person and their need for a living arrangement according to Your will. We pray that You will guide them to the right living situation, one that honors and glorifies Your name and aligns with Your Word. It is vital that we are not led into temptation but are delivered from the evil one. So we pray that they are placed in a secure and good situation.
Which brings us to the next point. If they are actively looking for a Christian living arrangement. We pray they find fellow believers who are compatible and supportive, encouraging each other in their faith. We pray that the fellow Christians they seek to live with are godly men and women who fear the Lord and live according to His will. We pray for a living environment that is safe, peaceful, and conducive to spiritual growth.
Lord, we also pray for clarity and wisdom for this person. Help them to discern Your will and to make decisions that are pleasing to You. Guide them in their search, and provide them with the necessary resources to secure a suitable living arrangement.
Finally, Lord, we pray for their faith to be strengthened during this time. Help them to trust in You and to rest in the knowledge that You are in control of every situation.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage them to be patient and to trust in God's timing. It is also important to seek God's will in all things and to be obedient to His Word. God will provide the right living situation at the right time. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7 WEB.
