A prayer for the single Christian
Posted : 28 May, 2012 08:05 PM

Here's a prayer that was shared with me and it was encouraging. I hope it does the same for someone else:



Father in the name of Jesus Christ, I come boldly before Your throne of grace confessing Your Word over my life as a single Christian.



I pray that You would help me to live a Godly life as a single Christian � a life that is holy, sanctified and set aside for the Master�s use, and prepared for Your good work.



I confess Your word, that as a single Christian, my life is crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live; yet it�s not I that live, but it�s Christ that lives in and through me; and the life which I now live in the flesh as a single Christian, I live it by faith, power and strength of the Son of God who loved me and gave Himself for me.



Father, You said that You would not leave us alone, but You promised to send us the Comforter. I pray therefore, that You would fellowship with me daily through the Comforter of the Holy Spirit.



I pray that while I am single, may You be the One to whom I am married. Lord, when I get lonely, may You, through the Holy Spirit, be the One who comforts my heart. May You be unto me as a close friend that sticks closer than any brother. When I need someone to talk to, may I also find comfort, as well as pleasure in talking to You. And as I talk to You, may You speak continually back to my heart, and may You be my daily companion who keeps me company, as You walk with me each and everyday.



I pray that You would give me Godly friends and acquaintances that will be an encouragement to me to live for, love and serve You with all of my heart, soul, strength, and might. And, keep me away from those who would draw my heart away from You and draw me into idleness, worldliness, carefulness or ungodly situations or relationships.



Your Word says that You are able to keep me from falling and present me faultless with exceeding great joy. I pray, therefore, that You would help me to keep watch of the evil one in my life. Father, as a single Christian, help me not to be drawn or lured into sexual temptation, and keep me from falling into sin. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Nice prayer.



I also pray that I can be an encouragement to others that may be discouraged by their singleness or going through a troubled marriage.



I find when I pray for others my problems seem smaller and I often am blessed more than I could imagine.



May God bless each of you searching for God's will.
