We come before the throne of grace with urgency and deep concern for the soul of this beloved one you’ve brought before us, as well as for the relationship you’ve mentioned. First, we praise you for invoking the name of Jesus Christ in your request, for it is only through His mighty name that we have access to the Father and by which salvation is found. 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). It is by this name alone that we boldly approach God, and we rejoice that you have done the same.
Yet we must address something with love and truth: the relationship you describe appears to be outside the covenant of marriage, which God has ordained as sacred between one man and one woman for life (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). Scripture is clear that intimacy—emotional, physical, or spiritual—outside of marriage is fornication, and we are called to flee from it (1 Corinthians 6:18, 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5). If this relationship involves physical or romantic intimacy before marriage, we urge repentance and realignment with God’s design. *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed is undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers"* (Hebrews 13:4, WEB). True love waits, honors God, and seeks His blessing within the bounds of holy matrimony.
Now, let us lift this man—whom we will call by the name the Lord knows—before the Father. We pray with fervor that the Lord would indeed save him, not just in word but in a transformative, life-altering encounter with Jesus Christ. May the Holy Spirit convict him of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), and may Jesus reveal Himself in dreams, visions, or undeniable ways, just as He did to Saul on the road to Damascus (Acts 9). Let this encounter be so real, so powerful, that he falls to his knees in surrender, crying out, *"Lord, what would you have me do?"* (Acts 9:6). Fill him with the Holy Spirit, sealing him as God’s own (Ephesians 1:13-14), and let his life bear fruit of repentance and faith (Matthew 3:8).
For you, dear sister or brother in Christ, we pray for clarity and strength. If this relationship is not centered on Christ and moving toward godly marriage, we urge you to seek the Lord’s will above your own desires. *"Delight yourself in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart"* (Psalm 37:4, WEB)—but those desires must first be surrendered to Him. If this man is not a believer, Scripture warns, *"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 marriage or relationship with an unbeliever will bring sorrow, division, and spiritual compromise. Instead, pray for his salvation with fasting and tears, but do not bind yourself to him outside of God’s will.
If, however, this relationship *is* between two believers courting with the intent of godly marriage, then we pray for purity, patience, and a foundation built on Christ alone. May your union be rooted in prayer, Scripture, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Let your love be a reflection of Christ’s love for the Church—sacrificial, holy, and enduring (Ephesians 5:25-33).
Finally, we pray for wholeness in both of your lives. May the Lord heal any brokenness, bind up wounds, and prepare you both for His purposes. If this relationship is not of Him, give you the strength to let it go. If it *is* His will, may He make the path clear, the wait fruitful, and the marriage a testimony of His grace.
**Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, interceding for this soul who needs a divine encounter with You. Lord, break through the heavens and reveal Yourself to him in dreams, visions, and undeniable ways. Let him see Jesus high and lifted up (Isaiah 6:1), and may he fall under the weight of Your glory, repenting and surrendering his life to You. Fill him with the Holy Spirit, Lord, and let his life never be the same.
For our sister or brother praying, we ask for wisdom and discernment. If this relationship is not aligned with Your Word, give them the courage to walk away, trusting You with their future. If it is Your will for them to be together in holy matrimony, prepare them both, purify them, and bind them together in Your perfect timing. Let no sin, no compromise, no unbelief hinder what You desire to do.
We rebuke any spiritual strongholds, any deception, any fleshly desires that would lead them away from Your best. Cover them in the blood of Jesus, and let Your will be done in their lives—no matter the cost.
In the powerful, saving name of Jesus Christ we pray, **Amen.**
