We hear the earnestness in your heart as you cry out for God’s protection, guidance, and blessing over your life and those you hold dear. It is beautiful to see you turning to Jesus with such dependence, for He alone is our refuge, our provider, and our perfect guide. You have rightly invoked the name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven by which we are saved, and through which we boldly approach the throne of grace. 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). Your faith in calling upon Jesus is a testament to your trust in Him, and we join you in lifting these petitions before the Lord.
Yet, we must address something with love and truth: the repeated use of "%23%23%23" in place of identifying the person or relationship you are praying for raises concern. If this is a romantic relationship, we urge you to examine it through the lens of Scripture. Marriage is a sacred covenant ordained by God between one man and one woman for life (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). If you are not married to this person, we must lovingly but firmly remind you that any romantic or physical relationship outside of marriage is fornication, which is sin in the eyes of God (1 Corinthians 6:18, Galatians 5:19-21). The Lord’s design for intimacy is within the bounds of marriage alone, and His blessings flow most abundantly when we align with His will. If this relationship is not centered on Christ or does not honor His design for marriage, we pray you would seek His wisdom and repentance, for *"the sexual immoral person sins against their own body"* (1 Corinthians 6:18, WEB), and *"God’s will is your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality"* (1 Thessalonians 4:3, WEB).
If this person is your spouse, we rejoice with you and pray for God’s protection and unity over your marriage. But if not, we encourage you to pursue a relationship that honors God—one where both of you are believers, committed to purity, and moving toward the covenant of marriage. *"Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for what fellowship have righteousness and iniquity? Or what communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). A relationship built on Christ will thrive in His peace and purpose.
We also notice your prayer for protection from an ex and for lies to be exposed. This is a righteous request, for the Lord is a God of truth and justice. *"You shall not spread a false report. Don’t join your hand with the wicked to be a malicious witness."* (Exodus 23:1, WEB). We pray that any deception would be brought to light and that you would walk in the freedom and victory Christ has already won for you. *"No weapon that is formed against you will prevail; and you will condemn every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of Yahweh’s servants, and their righteousness is from me," says Yahweh"* (Isaiah 54:17, WEB).
As for your travels today, we agree with you in prayer for safety and divine appointments. The Lord goes before you and is your rear guard (Isaiah 52:12). He orders your steps (Proverbs 16:9) and will guide you into all truth (John 16:13). Trust Him to lead you, even in the small details of your day.
Now, let us pray together over these things:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up our sister who seeks Your face today. Lord, we thank You that she turns to You for protection, guidance, and blessing. You alone are her shield and her exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1). We ask that You surround her with Your favor as with a shield (Psalm 5:12) and order her steps in Your word (Psalm 119:133).
Father, if the relationship she speaks of is not aligned with Your design for marriage, we pray You would convict her heart and grant her the courage to walk in obedience. Reveal to her any area where she may be compromising Your standards, and give her the strength to honor You in her relationships. If this person is not her spouse, Lord, we pray You would either redirect her heart toward a godly courtship leading to marriage or grant her the grace to release what is not Yours. Let her find her satisfaction in You alone, for You are enough.
We rebuke any scheme of the enemy to bring harm, deception, or separation into her life. Expose every lie and bring truth to light, Lord. Let no weapon formed against her prosper, and let every tongue that rises against her be condemned (Isaiah 54:17). Protect her from those who would seek to manipulate or accuse her falsely. Give her discernment to recognize the people You have sent to bless her and the wisdom to distance herself from those who are not.
As she travels today, Lord, we ask for Your divine protection over her journey. Bless the driver, the passengers, and the path before her. Let Your peace guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7), and may she encounter Your goodness every step of the way. Open her eyes to see Your hand at work, even in the smallest details.
Father, we pray You would fill her with Your love, joy, and peace—fruits of the Spirit that overflow from a heart surrendered to You (Galatians 5:22-23). Guide her decisions and lead her in the path of righteousness for Your name’s sake (Psalm 23:3). Let her life be a testimony of Your faithfulness, and may those she encounters today see Christ in her.
Most of all, Lord, we pray she would abide in You, for apart from You, we can do nothing (John 15:5). Draw her closer to Yourself, and let her find her identity and security in You alone. In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Sister, we encourage you to meditate on God’s word daily, for it is a lamp to your feet and a light to your path (Psalm 119:105). Seek His kingdom first, and all these things shall be added to you (Matthew 6:33). If you are not already in a community of believers, we urge you to find a Bible-believing church where you can grow in faith and accountability. You are not alone—the body of Christ is here to support and uplift you.
If there is more you’d like to share about this relationship or any other area of your life, we are here to pray with you and speak truth in love. May the Lord bless you and keep you; may He make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; may He lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace (Numbers 6:24-26).
