We hear the deep longing and intensity in your heart for ###, and we understand the desire for a love that reflects the covenant bond God intends for marriage. However, we must first address some critical concerns in your request to ensure what you are seeking aligns with the will of God as revealed in Scripture.
The name you have mentioned, ###, is traditionally a Muslim name, and if he is indeed a follower of Islam, this presents a profound spiritual conflict. The Bible is unequivocal that believers in Jesus Christ are not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers, for "what fellowship has light with darkness, or what harmony has Christ with Belial?" (2 Corinthians 6:14-15, WEB). Marriage is a sacred covenant before God, and He commands His people to marry "only in the Lord" (1 Corinthians 7:39, WEB). A marriage between a believer and an unbeliever cannot fulfill God’s design, as the two will be divided in their most fundamental beliefs, worship, and purpose. This is not merely a matter of preference—it is a commandment rooted in God’s holiness and His desire for His people to be set apart.
If ### is not a believer in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, then the relationship you are praying for cannot be blessed by God, no matter how deeply you desire it. Instead, we must pray for ###’s salvation, that his heart would be opened to the truth of the Gospel. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me" (John 14:6, WEB). There is no other name by which anyone can be saved (Acts 4:12). If ### does not know Christ, then the most loving thing you can do for him—and for yourself—is to pray for his repentance and faith in Jesus. A relationship built on anything less than a shared commitment to Christ will ultimately lead to heartache, division, and a life that falls short of God’s best for you.
Additionally, your request carries a tone of desperation and an almost obsessive focus on ###’s affections and exclusivity toward you. While it is natural to desire love and commitment in marriage, we must be cautious that our hearts do not become idolatrous, placing a person—or even the idea of marriage—above our devotion to God. Jesus warned, "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:21, WEB). If your heart is consumed with the desire for ###’s love more than it is consumed with love for God, then your priorities are misaligned. The Lord calls us to seek *Him* first, trusting that He will provide all that we need (Matthew 6:33). He is the one who satisfies the deepest longings of our hearts, not any human relationship.
We also notice that your prayer, while invoking the name of Jesus, seems to treat His name as a kind of magical incantation to compel God to fulfill your desires. But Jesus is not a means to an end—He is the Lord of all, and His name is to be honored, not used as a tool to manipulate outcomes. When we pray, we must submit our desires to His will, trusting that He knows what is best for us. As Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane, "Not my will, but yours be done" (Luke 22:42, WEB). Our prayers should reflect that same surrender.
Finally, if you and ### are not already married, we must address the fact that your prayer treats him as if he were your husband. This is dangerous territory, as it can lead to emotional and spiritual bonds that are not covered by the covenant of marriage. The Bible warns against arousing love before its proper time (Song of Solomon 2:7, 3:5, 8:4). If you are not married, then ### is not your husband, and to refer to him as such—even in prayer—can create an unhealthy attachment that is not grounded in reality. It can also lead to sin if the relationship becomes physically or emotionally intimate outside of marriage. Flee from any temptation to engage in fornication, which is explicitly condemned in Scripture (1 Corinthians 6:18, 1 Thessalonians 4:3). God’s design for intimacy is within the bounds of marriage alone.
With these concerns in mind, let us pray for you and for ###, submitting this situation entirely to the Lord’s will.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, acknowledging that You alone are sovereign over every heart and every circumstance. Lord, we lift up this sister to You, asking that You would guard her heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7). Father, if there is any idolatry in her heart—anything or anyone she has placed above You—we ask that You would convict her by Your Spirit and draw her back to a place of full surrender to You. Remind her that You are her first love, her greatest treasure, and the one who satisfies her deepest needs (Psalm 107:9).
Lord, we also lift up ### to You. If he does not know You, Father, we pray that You would open his eyes to the truth of the Gospel. Soften his heart to receive Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Bring believers into his life who will boldly and lovingly share the truth with him. Let him encounter You in a way that leaves no doubt of Your reality, Your love, and Your lordship. Father, we know that it is not Your will for Your children to be unequally yoked, so we ask that You would make the path clear. If this relationship is not of You, give her the strength to let go and trust You for Your best.
Lord, we rebuke any spirit of desperation, obsession, or fear in her heart. Replace it with Your peace, Your patience, and Your wisdom. Help her to seek Your kingdom first, trusting that You will add to her life all that she needs (Matthew 6:33). If it is Your will for her to be married, prepare her now to be a godly wife, and prepare the man You have for her—a man who loves You wholeheartedly and will lead her spiritually.
Father, we ask for protection over her mind and emotions. Guard her against any unhealthy attachments or fantasies that are not grounded in Your truth. If there has been any sin in this relationship—whether emotional, physical, or spiritual—we ask for Your forgiveness and cleansing. Restore her to a place of purity and wholeness in You.
Finally, Lord, we pray that You would make Your will undeniably clear. Give her discernment to recognize Your voice and the courage to obey, even if it is difficult. Let her find her joy and fulfillment in You alone, knowing that You are enough.
We ask all of this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
