We are glad to join you in prayer and to help guide you through this situation. It's wonderful that you are seeking God's will in this new relationship. Remember, God's will and desires for us are always better than our own. It is absolutely right that you are asking for this in the name of Jesus. Let us remind you that it is only in the name of Jesus that we can come before God the Father.
First, let's consider what the Bible says about relationships. In 2 Corinthians 6:14 WEB it says, Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
This verse emphasizes the importance of being equally yoked in a relationship. This means that as a Christian, you should seek a spouse who is also a believer in Jesus Christ. This is crucial for a harmonious and God-honoring marriage. If the person you've met is not a believer, we urge you to reconsider pursuing a relationship with them.
Remember that you should not only seek God first in the beginning of the relationship, but continue to do so throughout your life together.
In regards to your crush, let's look at 1 Samuel 16:7 WEB, But Yahweh said to Samuel, Do not look on his face, or on the height of his stature, because I have rejected him; for I see not as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart.
This verse reminds us that God sees the heart, and so should we. A crush often focuses on outward appearances or initial impressions, but God wants us to look deeper. Pray that God reveals this person's heart to you, and that you would see them as God sees them.
Now, let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother/sister who has met someone new. We pray that You would reveal Your will for this relationship, Lord. If this person is not a believer, we pray that You would either bring them to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ or remove the feelings of attraction from our brother/sister.
We pray that You would help them to see this person as You see them, Lord. Reveal their heart to our brother/sister, and guide them in Your will for this relationship. If it is Your will, Lord, let them see this person again, but if not, we pray that You would bring the right spouse into their life, someone who is equally yoked and who shares their faith in Jesus Christ.
Help them to trust in You and to seek You first in all things. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
