Loving Father, how precious it is to be free to come before Your throne of grace to worship You and to find grace to help in time of need. Lord, I desire to live godly in Christ Jesus, to carry out the works of righteousness that You have prepared for me to do in the strength of Your Holy Spirit, and I pray that I may grow in grace and in a knowledge of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, with each passing day.
Lord, it is my deepest desire to live according to Your will and You have instructed us to delight yourselves in the Lord and He will give you the desire of your heart. Father, I do delight myself in Your grace and faithfulness towards me, and at the moment it is my joy to live as a single woman and to find all my hope and strength and comfort in You, and I praise You Lord, that You have been my constant companion and pray that You continue to be the ‘husband’ of my life and the one to whom I turn day by day.
Lord, I also ask that if it is Your will, that in Your time and in Your way that You would provide a godly man with whom I can share my life and future, a Christian husband whose love for me is only exceeded by His deep love and devotion for You.
Thank You for the dear friends that You have already seen fit to bring into my life and I praise Your name for all Your goodness and loving kindness towards me in so many ways, for the work that I do and the joy that I have not only with friends but my family too. Lord, I leave this desire for a permanent relationship with the man of Your choice in Your hands, and pray that You would graciously answer my prayer, in the way that seems fitting for You. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
