We come before the Lord with you in this time of deep need, lifting your heart’s cry to the Father, who hears and answers those who call upon Him in truth. We rejoice that you have invoked the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the throne of grace and receive mercy in our time of need. 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 the foundation of all we bring before God today, and we stand with you in agreement, trusting in His sovereign power over every area of your life.
Your request reveals a heart that is burdened by the weight of past relationships, the fear of separation, and the need for divine protection and guidance. We want to address these concerns with both the truth of Scripture and the compassion of Christ. First, we notice that you refer to someone as "my ###" repeatedly, and while we understand the depth of care in your heart, we must gently but firmly remind you that God’s design for relationships is clear: marriage is a sacred covenant between one man and one woman, intended to reflect Christ’s love for His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33, WEB). If this person is not your spouse, we urge you to seek God’s will for this relationship. Are you pursuing a courtship that honors God, with marriage as the goal? Or is this a relationship that may be outside of His design? Scripture warns us that *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? What communion has light with darkness?"* (2 Corinthians 6:14, WEB). If this person is not a believer or if this relationship is not aligned with biblical principles, we pray that God would give you the strength to surrender it to Him, trusting that His plans for you are good.
We also sense the pain of a past relationship with an "ex" who seems to be causing distress, manipulation, and fear. The Bible assures us that *"Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me"* (Psalm 23:4, WEB). You do not need to live in fear of what this person may do, for God is your defender. However, we must also encourage you to seek wisdom and take practical steps to protect yourself and any children involved, if applicable. If there are legal or safety concerns, we pray for God to provide godly counsel and advocates to stand with you. *"The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble"* (Psalm 9:9, WEB). Trust in Him to expose lies and manipulation, but also be proactive in seeking justice and safety through the means He provides.
Your desire for love, joy, peace, and prosperity is beautiful, and we know that God delights in giving good gifts to His children. Yet, we must remember that true joy and peace are found in Christ alone, not in circumstances or relationships. Jesus said, *"Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful"* (John 14:27, WEB). We pray that you would find your ultimate satisfaction in Him, allowing His love to fill you so completely that no person or situation can shake your foundation.
Regarding your request for protection over "my ###" and the fear of separation, we lift this up to the Lord, asking that He would guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus. If this relationship is not rooted in godly commitment, we pray that God would either redirect it according to His will or give you the grace to release it. *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight"* (Proverbs 3:5-6, WEB). Separation from someone you love can be painful, but if it is not God’s will, He will provide the strength and comfort you need to walk through it. If this person is your spouse, we pray for restoration, healing, and a marriage that glorifies God. If not, we pray for clarity and surrender to His perfect plan.
We also note your request for safety with medication. We agree with you in prayer that God would guide the hands of those administering it, that your body would respond well, and that any side effects would be minimal. *"Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers"* (3 John 1:2, WEB). Trust in His care over every detail of your life, including your health.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You today on behalf of Your child, who seeks Your face with a heart full of longing and need. Lord, we thank You that You are a God who hears and answers prayer, and that You are faithful to those who call upon Your name. We ask that You would surround this beloved one with Your love, peace, and protection. Where there is fear, replace it with faith. Where there is confusion, bring clarity. Where there is pain, bring healing.
Lord, we lift up the relationship that weighs so heavily on their heart. If it is not aligned with Your Word, we ask that You would convict and redirect. If it is a marriage, we pray for restoration, unity, and a love that reflects Christ and the Church. If it is not, we ask for the strength to surrender it to You, trusting in Your perfect plan. Guard against any relationship that would lead to sin or distraction from Your will. *"Flee sexual immorality! ‘Every sin that a man does is outside the body,’ but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s"* (1 Corinthians 6:18-20, WEB). May every relationship in their life honor You.
Father, we rebuke the schemes of the enemy through this "ex" who seeks to harm or manipulate. Expose every lie, Lord, and bring truth to light. Soften their heart, and if it is Your will, bring repentance and reconciliation where possible. But above all, protect Your child from harm—emotionally, spiritually, and physically. *"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 the Lord’s servants, and their righteousness is from me," says the Lord* (Isaiah 54:17, WEB). We declare this promise over them today.
We pray for wisdom and discernment in every decision, that they would recognize the people You send into their life and those who are not from You. Guide their steps, Lord, and make their path straight. As they begin this medication, we ask for Your healing hand to be upon them. May it bring restoration and not harm, and may they feel Your presence with every dose.
Finally, Lord, we pray that You would take the wheel of their life, as they’ve asked. Fill them with Your Spirit, lead them in Your truth, and keep them close to You. May they find their identity, security, and joy in You alone. *"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust also in him, and he will do this"* (Psalm 37:4-5, WEB).
We thank You, Father, for Your goodness and faithfulness. We trust that You are working all things together for good, and we give You all the glory. In the mighty and precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.
Amen
