Unwanted Singleness

Anonymous

Beloved of All
I have heard for those under I Corinthians 7:2; 9 —marry not to burn; singleness is just a season, but at my old age it is a total curse! Suppose to believe the Blood of Christ save me, but if His Name seems powerless in prayer does He hate me? John 16:23-24; II Corinthians 1:18-20. I have no good from God; Proverbs 18:22; James 1:17. So what happen to the promises of Psalms 84:11? Please prayer that God either shows me mercy or just straight out kills me as tired of being total LOSER Lonely Old Single Eternally Rejected. For yes I prefer death to anymore time of UNWANTED SINGLENESS! For those who are happily single praise God for it is your calling, but myself I fall under being miserable alone; especially since Jesus is Engaged, Revelation 19:6-8.
 
We hear the deep anguish in your heart, and we come before the throne of grace with you, lifting up your cry of despair. Your pain is real, and your loneliness is heavy—we do not dismiss it. But we must first address the lies that have taken root in your spirit, for the enemy seeks to distort the truth of God’s love and promises toward you.

You ask if His Name is powerless in your prayer, if He hates you because your singleness remains. But Scripture is clear: *"For no matter how many promises God has made, they are ‘Yes’ in Christ. And so through him the ‘Amen’ is spoken by us to the glory of God"* (2 Corinthians 1:20). His promises are not void, nor is His love conditional upon your marital status. The blood of Christ has indeed saved you—not because of your circumstances, but because of His grace. If you doubt this, we must rebuke the spirit of accusation that whispers otherwise. *"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"* (Romans 8:1). You are not rejected; you are redeemed.

You cite 1 Corinthians 7:9, where Paul says it is better to marry than to burn with passion, but this is not a command—it is wisdom for those struggling with temptation. Singleness is not a curse; it is a gift (1 Corinthians 7:7). Yet we acknowledge that not all feel called to it, and your longing for marriage is not sinful. But we must ask: Have you surrendered this desire fully to the Lord, or have you allowed bitterness to take hold? *"Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4). This does not mean He will give you a spouse on your timeline, but that He will align your desires with His will—whether that includes marriage or not.

You say you have *"no good thing from God,"* but James 1:17 declares, *"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights."* Your salvation is the greatest gift—far greater than any earthly relationship. And Psalm 84:11 promises, *"No good thing does he withhold from those who walk uprightly."* If you are walking in righteousness and still feel lacking, we must examine whether your definition of "good" aligns with God’s. A spouse is a blessing, but it is not the *ultimate* blessing. Christ is.

You mention Revelation 19:6-8, where the Church is called the Bride of Christ. This is a beautiful truth, but it does not mean you are excluded from earthly marriage if that is God’s will for you. The Bride of Christ is the collective body of believers—not an individual exclusion from human covenant. Do not let this passage deepen your despair; let it remind you that your ultimate belonging is in Him, not in a spouse.

Your cry for death is a cry of deep pain, and we do not take it lightly. But we must rebuke the spirit of suicide that whispers this lie. *"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full"* (John 10:10). Your life has purpose—even in singleness. Have you considered that God may be using this season to refine you, to draw you closer to Him, or to prepare you for something greater? *"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose"* (Romans 8:28).

We also must ask: Are you actively seeking godly community? Loneliness is not just about marital status—it is often about isolation. *"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up"* (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Have you surrounded yourself with believers who can encourage you, pray with you, and hold you accountable? Singleness does not mean you must walk alone.

Now, let us pray:

Heavenly Father, we come before You with heavy hearts, lifting up our dear brother/sister who is in deep pain. Lord, You see the tears, the loneliness, the despair. You know the longing for companionship, the weariness of waiting, the feeling of rejection. But we declare over them that You are near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). You have not forgotten them. You have not rejected them. You love them with an everlasting love (Jeremiah 31:3).

Father, we ask that You would break the lies of the enemy that have taken root in their mind. Shatter the deception that You are withholding good from them. Remind them that Your plans are for their welfare, not for harm (Jeremiah 29:11). Help them to see that their worth is not found in marital status but in the fact that You knit them together in their mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13-14) and that You died for them while they were still sinners (Romans 5:8).

Lord, if it is Your will for them to marry, we ask that You would bring a godly spouse into their life—someone who loves You first, who will cherish them, and who will walk with them in covenant. Prepare their heart for this, and prepare the heart of their future spouse. But if singleness is Your calling for them, give them the grace to embrace it, to see it as a gift, and to use this season for Your glory. Show them the unique purpose You have for them in this time.

Father, we rebuke the spirit of despair and suicide. We declare that their life has value, purpose, and hope in You. Heal their heart from the wounds of loneliness. Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Surround them with godly community—believers who will walk with them, pray with them, and remind them of Your truth.

Lord, we ask that You would reveal Yourself to them in a tangible way. Let them feel Your presence, hear Your voice, and know that You are with them. Remind them that You are their Bridegroom, their Provider, their Comforter. May they find their satisfaction in You alone.

We pray all of this in the mighty name of Jesus, the Name that is above every name, the Name by which we are saved and through which we have access to You. We thank You that Your promises are "Yes" and "Amen" in Christ. May our brother/sister cling to this truth and walk in the freedom and hope that is found only in You.

In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
 
Oh dear friend, we hear your cry and we're here with you. We understand the heavy burden of unwanted singleness, the loneliness that can feel like a never-ending night. But remember, Jesus is always near, even in the darkest times.

You ask if God hates you because of your singleness. Oh no, dear one, it's not that simple. God loves you just as you are. He sees your pain, your longing, and He's not indifferent. In fact, He's promised to be close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18). He's not withholding good from you (Psalm 84:11), but He's refining you, preparing you for something greater (Romans 8:28).

You're not alone in your loneliness. Two are better than one, for they have a good return for their labor (Ecclesiastes 4:9-10). Have you surrounded yourself with godly community? Believers who can walk with you, pray with you, and encourage you?

Let's trust in God's plan, even when we don't understand it. Let's ask Him to reveal Himself to you in a tangible way, to fill you with His peace (Philippians 4:7). Let's pray that He'll give you the grace to embrace this season, to see it as a gift, and to use it for His glory.

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
 
Lord, we pray for this prayer and family for blessings healing and salvation. Heal and bless. May their lives be a praise and glory unto thee.
Come to the Lord's holy presence. Seek him with all your heart. Cling to his Word and meditate on it moment by moment by positive thoughts and joy in the heart (James 1:2-4), knowing that the Lord is good and to him be all the praise. Seek first God's kingdom and his righteousness (Matthew 6:33). Even though life may feel hard, the Lord's hand will be on you, and he will answer in his time. I am praying for you. Amen.
