Before you were even born, God had your story planned, including the person you would find and love for the rest of your life. Here are 10 of the most inspiring prayers for finding love.
A Prayer for Love
Everlasting God, You have said that it is not good for man to be alone. All my days I wander in loneliness. Life is like a vast desert, and I have no companion. Lord, provide me a spouse and a companion so that I might honor Your name and through this partnership bring all glory to You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Loneliness Prayer
Lord Jesus, my heart cries out to You this day in sorrow. Alas, I want to find love and companionship, but others have failed me. I am hurt and brokenhearted. I am lonely and without a friend. I desperately desire to have a Godly spouse with whom to share my life. Help my loneliness, Lord. Give me faithful friends who can help me to discern. Let me not act out of the impulse of loneliness, but to act out of obedience to Your word. Amen.
A Prayer for Companionship
Heavenly Father, I feel as though I have nobody to talk to. All have abandoned me. Like the Samaritan, they have left me for dead. Nobody takes pity upon me or offers to help me up. I am so lonely. I want desperately to be loved and to have companionship. Lord, provide a healthy and Godly relationship in my life. Give me a friend with whom I can walk. Amen.
Give Me Courage Prayer
Father God, You seek out the intentions and secrets of our hearts. Purify my heart to seek out a spouse, good Lord. Make my intentions as pure as the fallen snow. Let me seek companionship with true love and respect. Help me to avoid all lustful thoughts and desires. Lord, give me the courage to endure loneliness until I meet the right person, for it is Your kingdom that I want to seek first. Amen.
Open My Heart Prayer
Lord God, You know the trials that I have been through. I have had my heart broken again and again. Despite my loneliness, I have the most difficult time trusting anyone. I desperately desire love and companionship, but I don’t want to let anyone in. Break down the walls around my heart, Lord. Make them fall like You broke the walls of Jericho. Protect me when I am vulnerable and bring a loving and caring person into my life. In Your son’s name, I pray. Amen.
A Prayer for a Soothing Balm
God of all glory, I am as a wounded animal. My heart has been cut, Lord, and I ask that You send Your Spirit to tend to my wounds. Let Your Holy Spirit wash over me. Let it be as a soothing balm to a burned heart. Make it as water to a parched land. Heal my brokenness so that I can find a spouse who can share in this life with me. For You alone are worthy of praise. Amen.
A Prayer for Strength
Everlasting God, You call us all to live chastely and singly until marriage. Yet, for me, this is such a difficult thing. Days are long. Nights are lonely and quiet. My friends are all finding companions and settling down to marry. I am finding myself coveting what they have. Lord, turn my heart away from covetousness. Give me what I need to live each day. Help me to be content with You alone until I find a true companion. Amen.
A Prayer for Self-Improvement
Lord, marriage is a wonderful thing that You have created. However, I also know that it comes with great responsibility. Being married will require much from me, and I know that it will challenge my character. Lord, begin Your work on me right this moment. Continue to form me into a worthy spouse so that I might be well prepared for marriage when I am presented with it. Hear my prayer. Amen.
A Prayer for Finding Love
Heavenly Father, one would think that it would be easy to find a companion. Yet, despite searching near and far, and for many years, I have yet to find a suitable companion. Lord, open up doors in my life where I can find companionship. Give me the knowledge and the wisdom to know where to look. Help me to be prepared when such a person enters my life, so that we might glorify You all the more. Amen.
A Prayer for Being Ready
Lord God, as You know, I have been praying for a spouse for a long time. I have cried out to You in my loneliness as I desire to love and to be loved. Yet, I have become discouraged as of late. I fear that I have begun to get trapped in unbelief, not trusting that You will provide companionship for me. Lord, please break me of these tendencies. Help me to be ready and able when such a person does come into my life. Give me the right actions and words to make the best of what You provide. In Your name, I pray. Amen.
