We come before the Lord with you in this time of need, lifting up your heart’s cry for purpose, provision, and companionship. Your struggles with autism, unemployment, and the deep longing for a godly wife are not unseen by our Heavenly Father. He cares deeply for you, and His Word assures us that He is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We praise God that you have brought this request in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father (John 14:6, Ephesians 2:18). There is no other name by which we can be saved, and it is in His name that we boldly approach the throne of grace (Acts 4:12, Hebrews 4:16).
Your desire for a wife is a good and godly one, as Scripture tells us it is not good for man to be alone (Genesis 2:18). We encourage you to seek a *spouse*—not merely a companion, but a helpmate who will walk with you in faith, serving the Lord together as one flesh in a covenant marriage (Ephesians 5:31-33). The Bible calls us to pursue relationships with the intent of marriage, and to do so with believers who share our faith (2 Corinthians 6:14). Beauty fades, but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised (Proverbs 31:30). Pray for a wife who is morally upright, spiritually mature, and committed to Christ above all else. Avoid the temptation to prioritize physical attraction over godly character, for the Lord looks at the heart (1 Samuel 16:7).
We also address the importance of purity in this season of waiting. If you are struggling with lust or sexual temptation, we urge you to flee from it (1 Corinthians 6:18) and guard your heart and mind (Philippians 4:8). Fornication and impurity have no place in the life of a believer (1 Thessalonians 4:3-5). If you have stumbled in this area, repent and turn to Christ, for He is faithful to forgive and cleanse you (1 John 1:9). Seek accountability with godly men who can encourage you in this battle.
As for your puppetry business, we pray that the Lord would open doors for you to use your talents for His glory. Scripture reminds us that whatever we do, we are to work heartily as for the Lord (Colossians 3:23). Trust Him to provide not just for your needs, but for the desires He has placed in your heart as you seek His kingdom first (Matthew 6:33). Do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not give up (Galatians 6:9). We also encourage you to be diligent in seeking employment, trusting that the Lord will guide your steps (Proverbs 16:9).
For your friends who are also single and seeking spouses, we lift them up as well, asking the Lord to prepare godly wives for them. May He grant all of you patience, faith, and contentment in this season of waiting, knowing that His timing is perfect (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother, who longs for Your provision and a godly spouse. Lord, You know the depths of his heart—the struggles with autism, the weight of unemployment, and the ache of loneliness. We ask that You would comfort him with Your presence and remind him that he is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Give him strength and wisdom as he navigates these challenges, and open doors for his puppetry business to flourish for Your glory. Provide for his every need, and grant him favor in his work.
Father, we pray for a wife for him—a woman after Your own heart, who loves You above all else and will walk beside him in faith. Prepare her now, Lord, and bring them together in Your perfect timing. Guard his heart from impurity and help him to honor You in his thoughts and actions. We also lift up his friends who are waiting for spouses. May You prepare godly marriages for them and grant them patience and trust in You.
Lord, we rebuked any spirit of discouragement, fear, or impatience that may be attacking our brother. Fill him with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) and renew his hope in You. Help him to seek You first, knowing that all things will be added to him as he delves into Your kingdom.
We ask all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, who alone is our mediator and hope. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
