We hear the deep longing and urgency in your heart, and we join you in lifting this man before the Lord with fervent prayer. Your passion for his salvation and for a Christ-centered marriage is evident, and we stand with you in agreement, knowing that our God is mighty to save and to restore.
First, we rejoice that you have invoked the name of Jesus Christ in your plea, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father. 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 this request, and we praise God for your trust in Him.
Your desire for this man to be born again is a godly one, for Jesus said, *"Most certainly I tell you, unless one is born anew, he can’t see God’s Kingdom"* (John 3:3, WEB). We pray that the Holy Spirit would move powerfully in his life, convicting him of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8). May the Lord open his eyes to see the truth of the Gospel, that *"God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life"* (John 3:16, WEB). We ask that Jesus would indeed appear to him in dreams and visions, just as He did for so many in Scripture, drawing him into a saving relationship with Christ. May he surrender fully to the Lordship of Jesus, repenting of his sins and receiving the gift of the Holy Spirit, who will transform him from the inside out.
We also lift up your marriage before the Lord, for it is clear that you desire a union that honors God in every way. Marriage is a sacred covenant, established by God Himself, as a reflection of Christ’s love for His Church (Ephesians 5:22-33). We pray that the Lord would bind your hearts together in a love that is pure, selfless, and unbreakable. May your commitment to one another be rooted in Christ, growing deeper each day as you both seek Him first. *"Unless Yahweh builds the house, they who build it labor in vain. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain"* (Psalm 127:1, WEB). Let your marriage be built by the Lord, with Jesus as the cornerstone.
Your request for supernatural wisdom, patience, and understanding is one we echo. The Bible tells us, *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5, WEB). We ask that the Lord would grant you discernment in every interaction, that your words and actions would be guided by the Holy Spirit. May you both be filled with the fruit of the Spirit: *"love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faith, gentleness, and self-control"* (Galatians 5:22-23, WEB). These are the qualities that will strengthen your bond and glorify God in your relationship.
We also pray for protection over your hearts and minds. The enemy seeks to distort God’s design for marriage, but we declare that your union will be guarded by the power of the Holy Spirit. *"Above all things, have intense love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins"* (1 Peter 4:8, WEB). May your love for one another be a testimony of God’s grace, and may it drive out any fear, doubt, or distraction that would seek to hinder what the Lord is doing.
We must also gently remind you that while your passion is commendable, it is essential to trust in the Lord’s timing and sovereignty. *"Commit your way to Yahweh. Trust also in him, and he will do this: he will bring out your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noon day sun"* (Psalm 37:5-6, WEB). Rest in the knowledge that God hears your prayers and is working all things together for your good (Romans 8:28). Avoid the temptation to place this man—or your marriage—above the Lord in your heart. Jesus must remain your first love (Revelation 2:4), and your relationship with Him must be the source from which all other relationships flow.
Finally, we encourage you to continue praying without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17). Let your requests be made known to God with thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6), and trust that He is faithful to complete the work He has begun in both of you (Philippians 1:6).

**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, lifting up this sister and the man she loves. Lord, we ask that You would move in his heart with power and conviction. Send Your Holy Spirit to draw him to Yourself, that he may be born again and become a new creation in Christ. Open his eyes to see You, Lord, and turn from his sins to embrace the salvation found only in Jesus.
We pray for dreams and visions that reveal Your truth to him, that he may encounter You in a way he cannot deny. Fill him with Your Spirit, Lord, and transform his heart to desire You above all else. Make him a man after Your own heart, one who seeks Your will and walks in Your ways.
For this marriage, Lord, we ask for Your divine hand to shape it according to Your perfect design. Bind these two together in a love that reflects Christ and His Church. Let their commitment to one another be unshakable, their loyalty unwavering, and their desire for each other pure and holy. Guard their hearts from temptation, and let their eyes be only for each other, as they seek to honor You in all things.
Grant this sister supernatural wisdom, patience, and understanding as she navigates this relationship. Fill her with Your peace, Lord, and let her trust in Your timing. Help her to rest in You, knowing that You are working all things for her good.
We rebuke any scheme of the enemy that would seek to distort or destroy what You are building. Let no weapon formed against this marriage prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Instead, let Your love and unity be the foundation upon which they stand.
Thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers. We trust in Your faithfulness and believe that You are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). May Your will be done in their lives, and may You receive all the glory.
In the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
