Well I was in my 30s no kids no wife and seemed like I was a worse position than ever to get married. I was kind of desperate. So I went to God, I did a study on prayer. I didn’t want to learn prayer from anyone else but God. I prayed that God would help me learn. Well I found out that if I prayed and did not doubt I would have what ever I asked for in prayer. So I prayed that God would give me a wife, 10 years younger than me, blue eyes, blond hair, with a good family, liked where I lived, super nice, about yea high.
I said I wanted to meet her not in two years, not in two months but in two weeks.
Ya that’s what I said, sounds crazy but it said to ask for what I willed. Now I got to go with the “no doubting program.”
Well then I had all kinds of thoughts on how stupid that was, how it wouldn’t work etc. I came against those thoughts with this, “No, now I did my part I asked, Gods going to do his part and I got to believe like I all ready received it”. As long as I kept it in my heart like it was mine God promised it would happen and it was going to happen. Either this stuff was all true or it wasn’t. Well that week a wonderful girl came over and by the end of one week she said she would marry me. She’s 10 years younger than me blond hair, blue eyes, good family and one of the nicest people you will ever meet. everything exactly like I asked. I gave God two weeks he did it in one. That’s the kind of God we are dealing with here. Suuuuuuuuper faithful, Super nice, super Good. If you ever decide to cut through all the religious stuff and find him you’ll find out too.

Seek from the book of the LORD, and read: Not one of these will be missing; None will lack its mate. For His mouth has commanded, And His Spirit has gathered them. Isaiah 34:16
All the promises of God are yea and amen in him 2 Corinthians 1:20 (all God’s promises are for you)
By his doing you are in him. 1 Corinthians 1:30 (it’s by his work that you are in him, not your own efforts)
So the promise of “none will lack his mate” is for YOU now based on the word of God and only the devil or your flesh is trying to talk you out of it being true for you.
He that finds a wife (or husband) finds a GOOD thing. Proverbs 18:22
God has plans for you for GOOD and not for evil for a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11
So this means a mate is included in the good things. You can believe for a mate and know your believing a GOOD thing, and it is in the will of God for you to have GOOD. You can also believe that the devil will come to talk you out of it so be ready. (the devil comes immediately to take out the word)

wonderful
Hi there,
I think that’s great, very encouraging!! I have been praying for someone for 2 years now and all the wrong ones keep coming along.
I will try to be more direct with my prayers and not doubt God!!
I agree God is Good!
I have been praying for over 5 years ever day to have a wife.
I belive in being married.
should I just give up on wanteing this?
I am 59 geting to old to wait for ever.
I am a good person.
can some one answer This for me?
NO! don’t give up! Get some kind of scripture and stand on it! God gives us what he wants by his promises. Jesus says what ever door you open will be open, whatever door you close in heaven will be closed. Do you really want to close your door? Get some piece of the word of God that says You can have it and wedge it in that door to keep it open. All the promises of God are yea and amen in Jesus Christ. So if its in the word its for you! God is no respecter of persons, if he promised it to one person, then he promised it to you through what Jesus has done. Having all done to stand, then STAND!

Be encourage
God bless u
do not despair God will make it come to Pass.
What I have noticed was that even though I wanted to find someone earlier, I was not ready in my heart nor did I know what was best for me. God knew that I still had a lot to learn before I was worthy of the right one. I prayed for God to guide me first, then I told God I felt ready for the right one but I needed someone strong in his faith so that he can help me in my own faith instead of taking away from it. God knows what is best for us and it is best not to ask for what you want but to ask God to provide what is best for you. God’s will, not yours. Ask instead for understanding of why you don’t get what you want or what you still need to learn. I found mine in my mid 30′s but financially it is still hard and we are still not married. But I have faith in God and know things will work out fine. Time is infinite to God and He can see what I do not. I wanted a child but now I know I can’t have children so I don’t need to rush. God saw that before I ever did so God wasn’t rushing but me in my human self was. I can be content in knowing that I have God in my corner and He will provide what I need, not what I think I need.
I think to understand GOd you must rely upon what he says. If he says “ask whatsoever ye will” then I thinkg GOd is wanting to give YOU what YOU want… Praying for Gods will is good. But when he says ask whatsoever you will I believe he wants to give you what you want. What parent doesn’t want o do that. As far as you not being able to have children, thats a bunch of nonsense. Once GOd comes into the picture then all your natural resonings for not having children go out the window. God could make a man have a baby, let alone a woman who’s doctor told her she couldn’t have one. The father to the faith, Abraham had a baby with his wife when he was 90 and his wife had already went through menopause. Many women in the bible had babies when they were told they could not. God is showing us over and over in the bible when we have faith in him the natural laws do not apply. For instance all cultures in the world chronicle the “long day” or on this side “the long night” when God stopped the sun in the sky for Joshuah. Do you know how physically impossible it is to stop the sun in the sky? It boggles the mind. Yet the Incas, Chinese, american Indians, Europeans, Japanese, etc all have this story of who the day or night was longer. Only the bible tells why. With God you could have children anyway. Wth God all things are possible… “ya butt… (ya but is the badge of unbelief… believe GOd can do anything…Open the door for him.
“whatever door you open will be opened, whatever door you close will be closed. ”
As is your faith so be it done unto you.
who can do exceedingly abundantly above all you ask or think according to the POWER that works with in you.
I am not ashamed of the good news of christ for it is the POWER of GOD to those that believe.
I think it’s cool that you met your wife that way…For God is awesome and it shows over and over again. He is truly blessing your life I can see that. Thanks for sharing. I will pray continully for more and more to realize the truth in God’s word…if we’ll be still God will Move!!!!!!Keep up the good work…God Bless, Steph

I really love your post and it has lifted me up. Thank You.
Could i publish this on my blog?
Jeff
ya sure you can, i have another bloig jesusanswersprayer.blogspot.com and signsoftheend.blogspot.com
be patient
through faith and patience inherit the promises
This is exact what I needed to hear!
When I first begin my life as a christian I would pray for my MR.Right but still their was no one…I waited 2years then finally met someone who I thought I would be with for the rest of my life but he wasn’t the man I thought he was, then I dated someone else who wasn’t a christian(shouldn’t never done that, it only made me stumble in my path with God) now I am currently dating someone who isn’t a christian as well but I have been praying for him to be saved by God’s Grace and for us to both be joined in marriage
two cannot walk together unless they agree,Amos 2;3, what has darkness and light has in common 2 Cor 6:14-18
I am so excited that i bumped into this website. I like that reply about God wanting to give us what we want. i am 7months pregnant, am carrying a boy. My partner has another child(a girl) with another woman, that was before i met him. She is 6yrs old. Last year i lost a child through miscarrage and i prayed to God for another child and i asked for a boy. Now i am carrying a boy
. My prayer is for me and my partner to get married, to have a stable relationship and raise our boy not forgteing to take responsibility for his other child. That is what i want from my God and i believe that He will grant me my desire. I dont want to say whenever but i want my partner to propose to me before the end of this year, by next year get married. I believe in God and His mighty power, He will never let His children down. I need all of you to help me with prayers for my partner, our son and our relationship.
Hi dear
congratulations, but first u made a mistake by falling pregnant without getting married to him because the Bible says Marriage is honorable to all with the bed undefile. ask God to forgive your sins then you will get married to him
meanwhile i will pray for u to be happy with him
thanks
What is the will of God concerning this scenario.If this man had a child out of marriage, he has not married you what makes you think that he will do it.Remember God is not mocked.Put yourself together let the will of God prevail not your will.
sweetie are you saved,you sound like you’re in love-been there done that-you best bet is to fall on you knees and cry out to Father help me Lord you know my beginning and my ending not my will but your will be done in my life- that will work out perfectly be encouraged
My Sister …I pray that you will have a strong healthy baby and babies are a blessing, however; you did fall out out the Lord’s will and the Bible says….Marriage is honorable to all with the bed undefile…..Repent and ask the Lord for forgiveness, mean it in your heart and have a beautiful baby.
Wow this has given me new hope in the Lord. You are so right, we pray with no belief. I am 28 year old female, been dating an awesome loving guy for just over a year. We met in a peculiar way, and a few weeks after we met he told me that he asked God for a girlfriend like me. That to me was amazing! However things changed- we decided to have sex after our 5th month and i KNOW that is where the mistake came in! Our relationship changed drastically! Its like God wasnt in it anymore.
Prior to that he took me to meet his family and a week later friends. He even started getting my opinion on marriage. Now things have changed. I have prayed for a guy like him, but i know i ruined it. And the worst part is that he said to me that he treasures our relationship so much that i should never think that he wants sex… he will wait. But i suggested it!
When things started going sour in our relationship once we had sex, he changed. I couldnt keep a job, all went totally bad. I then received an offer to go overseas by my brother for three months. Before my departure we had supper and he said that he loves the Lord and wants to do the right thing and said we should stop having sex.
I then once again realised that God has given me the best. A man that loves Him more than me.
Now i question why his not proposing! I am putting my faith in GOD!! i will pray and believe and i know God will make it all happen. I have been praying to God, with some faith and no movement!
God wants our specifics! I would like to be engaged by December 2009 to my love and i want to serve him with all my heart as family!
Keep me in your prayers. I am reading Battlefield of the mind, which helps to remain positive!
I wanted to tell you that when you got out of what you knew was right you got under the curse again. Sin is cursed and there is no way around it. You need to repent like your boyfriend did, (i think you have) and get covered by Gods sacrifice for it. The devil wont have legal rights to mess with you anymore and things will straiten out quick. I you want him to propose I am glad your praying for it. I know now girls can propose too, I have seen it happen so keep that in mind. You could pray about that option and see what God says. I will pray for you with my wife. I want the best for you and please update me on what is going on. Oh also its important you keep your faith in God alone. don’t let it transfer over to your boyfriend. If you transfer your faith over to him then if the devil can mess with him to bust up your faith he will. It puts you and him in a bad position. Put your faith in God alone then the devil will have no options.
Dear Thingsgodtaughtme
Thank you so much for this. I dont know where to start. My bf and i broke up after my return from Australia, and i cried for days. I knew it was because of the sin, God was not happy. I became someone else, i relied on my bf so much that it added way to much pressure on him and it effected the rest of his life (studies, work ect). So he ended our relationship. I was devistated. After crying and not praying… God pulled me back. I then told God that i want to marry Michael, i asked his forgiveness and believed that God would peform a miracle.
Well, its been 7 months since our break up and his slowly starting to move back into my life. It started with phone calls and then visits. Up to this point (its been almost a month) we havent even kissed! His even set meetings aside withhis best friend and spent it with me. Michael has really changed his life and based it solely on God. Our time spent together is like it was in the beginning before we met- before we had sex. I love this man, his family and the way he loves me. He doesnt say it, but when we together he always tells me of what an awesome impact i made in his life- which is enough. The small things show me he cares- since our break up he hasnt removed our photo which was in his dinning room.
I prayed this morning, so that God can keep me focused on his word and continuous love for me. I dont want to focus on Michael, because it will go pear shaped. I am not in a hurry, in Gods time and if it is in His will.
PLease keep on praying for me, friends tell me that the fact that his not asking me back as his gf, kissing me and attempting to have sex, that his wasting my time. Michael and i were talking and he said to me, that all his studies and hard work is to prepare properly for his family one day… i know pushing him wont make him commit. But i have told God how i feel about him.
If you can guide me spiritually, please do. Thank you for your response.
if the foundations be destroyed what will the righteous do.Your foundation has been corrupted.Advice separate yourself from him for a minimum period of 6 months and let God speak
wow girl thank you for being so open to us ladies we can all gather wisdom from this situation–
Hi!
How Great is Our God!
I am 29years old in campus doing my Phd and without a boy friend leave alone a husband-I really want to get married before 30 but I dont socialize much. I am really encouraged by your story and I will today start requesting God (word for word) what I want. I lost my mum last month. She had cancer. But she was saved-loved Jesus so much that though I am sad, I am not heart brocken because He assures me everyday that He is with her.
God Bless,
Nana
please I greet you in Jesus name, I encouraged to read your message,
i am 28 with no girl friend, I prayed that God show me my helper but not yet.
I loved one but I need to get God’s permission that I may be able to tell her that I loved her as well, help me in prayer i am Africa Rwanda.
Jesus be with you all.
Fidele
if its Gods will go and talk to her
Thanks for this wonderful message. This has brightened up my spirits. I have been looking to meet my life partner for the past 10 yrs. I will be direct and specific to God — in my prayers.
Thank you! and God Bless!!!
i am A 29 YR old female and seriously in search of a life partner, i want someone that fears God and will love him more than me. i have gotten serious encouragement from this site to have faith in God no matter what. my prayer is that this year 2010 will not pass me by to get married. AMEN
Hi helen
I know God has a perfect plan in store for both of us. He knows our hearts, all we have to do is believe and have faith in only Him. No worries, no fear!
Please mail me: ice21_baby@yahoo.com
I am a 40 year old woman who was with a great guy for 4 years. We were engaged, and I thought we were happy. He suddenly came to me and told me that he wasn’t sure I am the “right” woman for him and that he needed “time and “space” to decide.
Yes, he has been talking to other girls, but claims they are “just friends.
She says they are “just friends” too, but I don’t think so..
But I have never known him to be a liar so I’m not sure.
I want so bad to be a wife, I am a good housekeeper, I cook, I have a decent job.
I feel like I have a lot to offer to a man. I have 2 beautiful kids who would love to have a step father.
I just don;t understand what happened with my fiance. He never even came to me and told me there was a problem :”(
I have prayed everyday that God will help him find his way home to me.
He is not a believer in God at all (he;s a very stubborn atheist) and I have prayed God would reveal himself to my ex-fiance.
I have prayed that God will mold me into a good wife for someone, but i am still alone. I am so ready to be a wife!
I really want for things to work out with my ex-fiance, because I love him so much, but I know i deserve better than what he did to me by just dumping me with no real explanation.
I honestly don;t know if God will bring him home to me or not, but one way or the other, I am so tired of being alone, I WANT to be a wife to a good man
How come it seems all the good ones are taken already?
God the wisest being anywhere says not to be unevenly yoked. You have been praying for God to help you find a husband. Do you think God would jump over his advice about not being unevenly yoked and put you in a relationship with someone God recommends you don’t marry? God is not double minded. If you are praying for God to help you then strap yourself in and keep your faith on. God sometimes has to drive us way around the neighborhood before he comes back to where he wants to go. Often as soon as you pray it looks like right away you are going further from your prayer answer. Not a problem if you have faith in God. It is a problem if you have all ready figured out how you want God to answer your prayer. The word says we shall reap if we “faint” not. You got to keep your faith just like its already happened. If you decide Gods not going to do this or whatever excuse for unanswered prayer then you can kiss it good by. Faith is the substance of things not seen. When your faith ends there is no “unseen” substance. Actually that’s not true, your faith in it NOT happening is the substance now. And you will reap that. The key to believing God is to know how much he loves you. to Go ever and over how much he loves you and why. There is lots of evidence to this fact. Then it says we love him because he first loves us. Now the the “root” that god loves you, you will love him. Then the bible says love believes all things, and love never fails. Now we have a strong confidence and love will endure all the doubts and will not fail. You believe God for a husband and even if your left arm falls of the next day keep believing. God may take that guy out of the picture quickly if hes not the one. It wont matter to you either way if your in faith. Does God love you? really really? if he spared not his own son but delivered him up for us all wont he with him freely give us all things. Yes he will, but through faith. Faith works though love. By the way maybe the good ones are taken, but That means that god didn’t care enough about you to arrange a good husband for you even though hes been around fro all of eternity past. Do you really believe that? I know of a church member who is a grown man with a decent Job. This guy carries a toy light saber on his waist everywhere he goes. He really does. He dresses in Jedi robes sometimes in public. He prayed for a wife and right after wards he cleaned out his truck and put in a new seat cover for his new wife he knew was coming. He cleaned up his house in expectation. He saved some money up for dates. He believed he had already received. This guy wears a light saber! in public. He was married to a girl in few months after that. This girl was way prettier than i thought someone who wore a toy light saber should get. Is there hope for you? Ya there is hope for you. There is hope for even cat ladies and Jedi wanna Be’s. I just have to say this again, he WEARS a light saber! all THE TIME. God got him hitched. Tell me hes not a miracle worker! (hes a great person by the way and I like him, its just in the worlds eyes someone like that might have had a few problems getting married.
Look at some of these. http://www.lionofjudah1.org/Sermonetteshtml/Unevenly%20Yoked%20sermonette%20090603.htm
Hi felow christian,
I am a single mother, Idon’t have a bf, I am 31yrs old and I am keeping on fasting to get a man of my life.
Suddently last week an ex bf , started looking for me on the face book.
I spoke to him on the phone but he only spoke about his plans for the future nothing about marriage and why he searched for me, nothing about love.
Now I had decided that I pray to God to touch his heart for me, that I might start all over again with him, but the other thing is that his not a Christian, but I know that once his with me he will change.
So everday I pray God so that he send him back to him, I believe that God gives you your heart desire? Even though his not in the same continent with me, I believe vthat God will do miracles!
I strongly belief that he look for me not for any reason but to find out if there is any posibilty between us?
I stumbled on your site when i searched for praying to get married. I was once engaged to a nice man who wasn’t a christian, but called it off because i did not have a strong conviction he was the one (and i did not pray about this, i just based my decision on the fact that he didn’t do it for me). Then i met another man who wasn’t a christian, he was even worse than the 1st, he didn’t have a job, finances was zero and he did not even have the proper education, but i loved him and i prayed and prayed about it. Everyone was against the relationship, family and friends but it didn’t matter to us. After two years i began to understand that this was not God’s design for my life and it became clearer and clearer i had to end the relationship. I ended it and hooked up with another non christian who ended up even being worse than the two earlier guys, he was even engaged to another lady all the time he was with me. I then went back to the 2nd guy even though i knew it wasn’t right. To cut the long story short, i started praying, i broke up with him and made it clear the break up was final and i met a man who is a christian and we began dating. Now i have another guy who is a christian asking me out. I have two guys (dating one and friends with the other), they are both Christians (though i do not know how deep they are yet), they both have the same first name. I know the one i want, i just need to make sure that is the person God wants me to be with. Your post really inspired me, and even though i did not start off with the right foundation, i.e seeking God’s clearance before i went ahead to date my choice, i will pray that God should steer me in the right path in order to have a godly relationship with this man which will lead to marriage. As for the other man, i pray that God sends him a woman who will love him and want him equally. I also want to pray for a time frame, i am ready to me married, spiritually, emotionally. I think it is time to take that bold step of faith and ask for the specific things i want concerning this issue of marriage. Thanks again for this post.
BELOVES –
PLEASE EVERYONE LEAVE UNBELIEVERS ALONE–TELL THEM THEY NEED JESUS–DON’T TRY TO DATE THEM YOU WILL ONLY REGRET IT–BEEN THERE DONE THAT AND HAD A TEE SHIRT…
— LOTS OF LOVE
I want to encourage the singles among us reading this blog. I beg of you don’t rush into anything or demand God send you someone NOW! I did that with my first marriage and it was sheer hell on earth, and took me 12 hard years to get rid of, and I have two children I never get to see because of it.
I know it sucks being alone, believe me. I am separated from my current wife and God specifically TOLD both of us we were the right one for each other. The word promises that “Such shall have trouble in the flesh.” That is why Paul said “If you marry you do well, but if you don’t you do better.” Not everyone can keep that saying, and God blesses marriage. The word also says “He who finds a wife gets a good thing and has found favor with God.”
But you need to be ready dear Christian for that significant other, because I guarantee you marital “iron will sharpen iron.” That is not only for friends I think. So be content and wait in the Lord for the perfect time. Its not always what we think.
My wife and I are talking again and are trying to get back together, but we both wish we had waited a bit longer initially (we waited over a year to get married but she was messed up from her family and I was messed up from a previous marriage).
As my parents used to tell me, “Son, don’t be in such a hurry to grow up.” Don’t be in an all fired rush to get married, and once again I beg you to heed this. There is some merit to being single for awhile – enjoy it. Merle Haggard once sang that “he who travels fastest goes alone.” Enjoy this single – alone time with Jesus. You won’t regret it.
Amazing site
I got my husband threw prayer. I had the Prayer team at church praying for me a husband.
I just didn’t have one man show up. I had two! But let me tell you one was no from God and the other was. I knew that from the word. I had to stand on the word. I mean, don’t sleep with them. Don’t sin… and see which one was a Christian! If we was equal yoke.
I talk to my husband on the phone for 6 months before we when out and then my Dad got sick and put him off for 6 months. He date it other and when I came back we when out and soon got in engaged and married.
Hi all, I bumped upon this web page. It is absolutely brilliant.
I have had a problem from since I got divorced. Every man I meet is either in a relationship, but wants extras, or they are married…which I find out later. All the men that I have dated, have said…oh you could do better!! Meaning, that they are not good enough for me. All I want is a life partner, not a counterfiet!
I am so tired, I have been praying for a partner, but have not been specific, and this web page has encouraged me to be specific, of which I will start to do.
I am currently doing a prayer and fast, so the marriage will be the major topic of my prayer.
Please pray for me.
I have been praying and praying for the man of my dreams to marry me, but i have been cheated and cheated. I know i have made mistakes, sleeping with guys before getting married, but again i get to think those were not the right men for me. But i am afraid none has come that seems right.
Recently i was engaged, but i broke up with my fiancee due t unfaithfulness and basicaly i fetlt we were also incomptatible. But i wondered why God allowed that relationship to last for 6 years!. Now i have prayed and prayed again for a Mr. right, but only married men keep coming and i am wondering, why not single men?! Do i have a bad evil spirit that attracts married men. Oh God remove it if it is there, i refuse it in Jesus’ name.
Reading your site i was surprised that is possible. My specifics now are, I want to find a Mr. Right who my heart will be pleased with and we will totally love each other and be compatible and i want to get married to this man in March 2011 and i want to get pregnant in March itself and deliver a baby by the end of December 2011. Please help me pray. God says ask and you will be given, seek me and you will find me, and he tells me not to be anxious about anything but by prayer and supplications i should jus make my requests known to him and he will supply everything from all over the bible – I believe.
Amen; and God bless you, your wife and your family.
i thank God for leading me to this site. my challenge is this;
i broke up with my boy friend the day i decided
NO MORE SEX’
since he wouldn’t accept and i was not ready to change my mind at all, so i called it up,[ this was after a sunday service God revealed some things to me as my pastor was ministering on this topic]
.two years now, its not really been easy, men come and once i give them my simple policy ther’ll run away, those who who are very serious will stay but there will later start changing their behaviour and when i sense something bad coming i will just avoid them and leave them alone.
those who are ok with it are those i cant love or respect and its wrong to stay a man i cant respect
but now am seriously lonely an i will love to marry staying alone is not that easy
i dont want a long relationship because its always tempting on their own part since its not their decision but mine.
sometimes i wonder if it is impossible for men to stay w ithout sex, because they talk about it as if it is everythingthere need, which makes me more firm on my decision that i wont,
I really want to settle down because at 27years am just tired of being alone
but i want someone who will call sin what it is and notmodify it as some men do.
i have sowed a seed for it an believe a God fearing man will be my portion.
thank u and remain blessed.
This is so motivating. I want to make that change too. Please keep me in your prayers.
I am praying hard to marry a good husband who loves me, can afford to take care of me and who i can share my love and life with. May god bless me to meet him soon! Amen

Grace i will keep you in my prayers… please keep me in yours….
Wil pray for u Grace. God is great.
just wanted to know if prophesies made about your future spouse’s characteristics, appearance, education, etc. should match up exactly?
I got exactly what i asked for, 10 years younger, blue eyes, blonde hair, super nice.
thanks for your reply, please remember me in your prayers that I meet my life partner very soon and get married in a few months in 2011. I was dating someone from a different country for 8 years, believing it was an honest and lasting relationship that would lead to marriage, we are both Christians. When this person went back to their country to visit, apparently his family arranged a marriage and he married someone within 2 weeks. When he returned he simply told me that’s how it is in his country but we can continue our friendship. I had attended a friend’s church and the pastor had prophesied specifics about my future spouse which didn’t quite match my boyfriend at the time (that’s why i asked my previous question). I cut off all contact with him, but 7 years later I am still devastated and alone. At this time I am now in my late thirties and desperate more than ever to marry and start a family.
This pastor had told me about this hurtful time and I should use it to get closer to God but its so long now. I pray fervently for my heart’s desire at this time. Any advise welcomed as I feel I am losing faith.
This is a beautiful story. Good luck!
i got to know about this your site just today and am graateful to God for it.
but my challenge is that want to getmarried so soon. and a prophet of God saw meand prophesized that in April i will be getting married but i received a call from an ex boyfriend in January 2011 whom i taught is the one.
when i got to meet him i disliked him. and this is APRIL, i still pray to God to fulfill His promise to me.
pls, sir always put me in prayer i need to get married now.
I am grateful to God for this Site and deeply touched by your testimony. I came accross your story last saturday and I got down on my knees and prayed to God and I experienced sooo much joy and liberty in my spirit. I asked God for a husband and that I want to meet him within two weeks. Today, I’ve been battling doubt, but I am determine to stand on the word of God, because he has done miracles for me in the past. Lately I’ve had doubt in my Faith, I wasn’t sure I had faith anymore, but I just read a post on how our faith is based on Love, our love for God. It has helped put things in perspective for me and make it sooooo much easier to trust and not doubt God. I cannot thank you enough for this site and most especially for sharing your testimony. I would be grateful if you remember to put me in you prayers. Thank you and God bless you and your household.
I have come to this website for comfort this morning. I have been in a relationship with my boyfriend for three years. And when i chatted with him yesterday, he said to me he had no intention of getting married until he has a better home, car and finance.
This hurt me, because he was telling me he is not sure when we will settle. I love this man, can it be that he is not the one for me. Does God not give you your hearts desires? Could it be that it is at His time. I do not want to become dispondant about this…
But i love this man and i know he does too. Please pray so God will show me if his my husband.
My hearts desire is to be married so badly…
Thank you
God bless all of you……….marriage is a gift of God.some of us are to marry others of us to remain single. God says so in his word. I have someone who is currently in Nigeria. I want to be his wife very much, I have yet to hear from God. I have peace when I pray about us..and for us. I think of him all the time. I even have 2 pillows on a twin bed, sleeping on one side.
I want to hear God say yes……….. I want to be his (Michael’s) wife now 2day. I know if I go against God, it may or may not last. So I wait on God…….Praying God will say yes before the end of summer.
Hi Roxane
Because of your obedience God will give you your hearts desire. Whatever is asked in His name with faith will be given unto you.
Dont give up! I have that yearning feeling of being together with my boyfriend of three years. Keep me in your prayers as well.

Hey Thingsgdtaughtme and anyone else reading this,
What about praying to win over or win back a specific person? I had my first date last Friday May 6th since my divorce from a bipolar alcoholic; a marriage rushed and not blessed by God (civil ceremony only). This woman, a Mexican National, I met on Catholic Match.com. she was beautiful inside and out. We had dinner, drove around an old historic neighborhood, spent a little time at her house. Saturday May 7, she asked me to visit her at work, so I did. We planned on attending mass together the next day, but due to her working a double shift, she got sick, but still called me on May 8th (Mother’s Day) to say Hi, and then later that night to invite me to her house the next day May 9th. So I went. Well she smiled, took my hand when I extended it, and cooked for me. Well I called her the next day twice but had to leave two messages. Due to past experiences, I developed anxiety (yes I know about the bible’s scriptures about anxiety). Well last Wednesday May 11, I had a message from Catholicmatch waiting for me from her. It said she apologized for not returning my calls, and that her ex, whom she was with in the past for 5 years but never wanted to marry her, now that he found out about her going out with me, asked for another chance and will consider marrying her. She said that I was a really great guy and will pray that I find a great woman to be by my side, but that she wasn’t ready to be with someone else now. She said that she really liked me and because of that, she offers me a beautiful friendship. I told her in a Catholicmatch email and phone message that I was okay with that, want her to be happy, and do want a beautiful friendship with her, but that if things don’t work out with him and I haven’t met anyone else yet, to come talk to me. I haven’t heard from her since yet. I don’t want to limit myself, but with my experiences, Mexican women have been more ideal. This woman wasn’t the first Mexican I’ve dated. I am Hispanic myself but from Albuquerque. She was also almost my exact same age. So if that’s the case, is it safe to pray and really believe for a Mexican woman, my age, beautiful inside and out, putting God first like me? And to be more specific, this same woman that showed me a weekend that was better than two years of my toxic non-blessed marriage? If I pray and really believe this to happen and not let anyone discourage me from believing it will happen, then it will? I have heard otherwise, even from priests and other denomination pastors; that I need to pray for the wife that God wants me to have if one even at all. Well Thingsgodtaughtme, I wish I had your luck or your favor with God. What would I be missing in order to get it answered? 2 weeks with your specifics? That it awesome! Praise the Lord for that one! If you are praying, for me or for the others writing to you, thanks so much for doing it!! God bless you!

I almost forgot to ask you, did you pray that prayer for that specific request everyday for that week until it happened or just once and then let it go? The bible says to pray and don’t lose heart, and to ask and keep on asking and you shall receive, not to mention be strong and don not let your hands be weak for your work shall be rewarded. I have found touching scriptures about wicked and virtuous women in Sirach, mostly in the chapters 20′s. Thanks again and God bless you. Hope to hear from you.

I prayed and then had to guard it because I had a lot of thoughts like, your not worthy etc. I had to defend myself a lot. I would hear, your not worthy, and I would shoot back Christ is my only righteousness. I would hear “you don’t have enough faith for that” I would shoot back, “even trusting is not from our self it to is a gift of God”, and “our sufficiency is not from our self but from God”. I answered back with scripture alone. This went on a lot. It happened in my idle mind. It was irritating. I had set the thing I prayed for inside myself as if all ready answered, real to me, and there were many thoughts that came against that.
I asked God why there were so many thoughts against me getting my answer and God told me it was because there “was something there to steal”.
Like God, because I am his child, I called those things that were not as though they were. The devil comes in your thought life. Imaginations, reasoning etc tried to say it was not so. He needs you to agree with him and disagree with what God said or what your believing for. God simply said if I prayed and did not doubt in my heart I would have it. So the devils deal was to get me to doubt in my heart. Resoning, so called facts, images, whatever he could shoot at me. He does it in your idle mind, peter said that’s the devils workshop.
You are in God’s image, like God create stuff all the time. Everyone does. Your belief makes it so. If I tell you your a winner, and you believe it, then for you its real. It exists by your faith. Its as real to you as anything else is real. This power to create exists by YOUR faith. God, like a good parent, wants to get you to exercise your power of making things by belief, so you like dear children can be imitators of God our father. You should see the article on my blog on “what kind of creature are you”. Read psalms 51 too. Psalms 51 tells you what kind of being you are.
Your faith is the scepter you use to rule here. The idle mind and lack of what the scriptures say is true is how the devil uses your own faith against you. The bible says take every thought captive. EVERY one. If you let your mind go idle then the devil and the world come fill it up and start calling your thoughts. When God says take every thought captive it implies not every thought is good, not every thought is from God or you. In the bible it says it’s not what a man eats or drinks that defiles him, and makes him unfit for God but his thought life. Your thought life will either win or loose you what you are praying for depending on where you put your agreement of faith. Faith is the substance of things not seen, the evidence of things hoped for. Faith can become things if it endures.
Hey Thingsgodtaughtme!
Thanks for getting back to me. Well I know God changed my desire when I used to pray for the return of my ex-wife, but now I know He was saving me from something bad which could have gotten worse. I sometimes still pry for her salvation though. But as far as my ideals, I could pray for a Mexican woman, my age, beautiful in and out, and believe that He has a woman just like that, if not the one I have in mind in particular, by this Summer if I want her by then? That if I really believe and not let doubt enter, and guard my prayer, that it’ll happen? As far as guarding the prayer, would that include asking and keeping on asking as well as reminding myself that the devil can’t steal my joy and confidence? Thanks again and God bless you!!
Jason
Testing switching emails since my old hotmail one got attacked with viruses. Using my work address this time…..
Anyway if God does allow us to be specific and in a way picky, I do desire to have Spanish spoken in the home when God does bless me with a family; I desire a beautiful inside and out Mexican National (I am Hispanic but from the “local” history/roots born in Albuquerque), my same age or really close (currently 33 almost 34), who prefers Spanish, has up to one child currently but wants more, puts God first, good Catholic, and doesn’t smoke or drink. Someone family oriented. Just an amazing woman all around; someone whom I didn’t have during my non-blessed civil marriage; the types whom I have had great experiences with Mexicanas. I have someone in particular in mind but if God can send me someone just like her plus even more qualities who fits me perfectly in His eyes, that would be awesome. And that this woman can be in my life by the Summer. Any prayer warriors out there, please pray this happens and I’ll pray for all of you too. Thanks and God bless you.
Hello Jason D, your post put a smile on my face, it makes this site look like an eharmony or dating site. On the serious side, I can relate to your feelings and hope your prayers are answered. Bless you.
Im 31 years old, I real want my wife 20-27 ages who is torelant that can handle me the way I am, loving, be ready to love me for life, who will love my relatives, one who will encourage me, one who will build and not destroy me. I promise the same for one with that heart
CharlSA i will pray that God gives you your hearts desires, if it is in His will. I know the feeling. there are days when i give up but i know things will change once i completely have faith.
pray for me too.

Ivone jorge,hey god is faithful , god can do anything for is children , wen we pray god answer ,according to our faith,all we need to have is faith only,faith is the key to ask god,ask in faith,marrige is god will mi and you
I am 29 years old female in love with a guy whom i love more than my life.. i really want to get married to him but only problem is that we are of different caste and culture. i believe in god so much and i know my wishes will be granted soon. just pray for me that i get married soon by End of this year to love of my life with whom i wanna spent entire life. Amen
I have posted here before regarding marriage and I want to urge each of you contemplating marriage or those of you believing God to realize He WILL answer the prayer of faith. I’d also encourage you to ask HIM to guide your prayer since we often don’t know what to ask for.
Another caution, don’t ask for a wife unless you are ready for her. I’d advise each of you to get ready yourselves before asking God to send one. It will save you a lot of heartache. I wish I’d done that myself and waited and got myself ready as much as I could first through fasting and prayer.
Hey genie and all others,
Thanks for the reply and the hopes! It’s encouraging and I actually got to hang out with her last Sunday after 5 weeks! We have plans to go to mass together again like we did last Sunday and then eat and maybe a movie if busy schedules don’t affect things, plus it’s Father’s Day that day. So we’ll see… Thanks for the encouragement, You guys are in my prayers too!
God bless!

Hi All
What an encouraging site of hope, prayer, faith and belief. I have been with a guy for 5 yrs now. recently he asked for some space as I was being too clingy and moody. I acknowledge my behavior and am sorry for it. The problem is, he is now almost a stranger. he calls or sms es once or twice a week. Compared to us talking on the phone every day. I miss him terribly, and I pray that GOD opens up his heart and restores a once great and loving relationship that we had. I trust God’s word that he wants the best for me and my future. Please all keep me and my boyfriend in your prayers for an honest committed relationship leading to marriage. Thanks MR.
I’m fairly sure God told me this, after I had prayed for what I wanted in a wife.
“Look forward to meeting her.”
And that’s how you have faith in already having what you ask for before receiving it.
God keeps His promises. He also knew everything you wanted before you wanted it, He knew 999999999999999999999999999999 years ago on to infinity.
I was just wondering,
If its not to personal, can you describe the circumstances of how God brought your wife to your house. Was it obvious from the very start that you two were made for each other?
Is there anyone else out there that is still a virgin and saving sex for marriage, and wants the same thing in their future spouse? Thats one thing that is very important to me.
yes steve
I was a virgin before my now ex-wife, and she had been with other men before me. I was like her 5th or 6th, or maybe even more that I just don’t know about. She had gotten her tubes tied before we got married so we never had children. I did go get STD tested too. Well now at 34, I do want someone with little sexual experience if any at all. The Mexicana I was seeing did go back to her old boyfriend for real this time it looks like. I do pray that no matter what happens that she sticks to what she says she believes in based on premarital sex saying she agrees with the church teachings. And yes, even now at 34, as a divorcee, I still will be celibate and plan on waiting until I’m married again AND in a marriage blessed by God, done in the church. I do expect a woman with that same value and that she also be in agreement and acceptance with those church teachings. That is very hard to find these days, it seems especially here in the states.
Hi everyone! Praise our lord for his mighty work !
GREAT communicator of how he feels, likes kids, does not smoke or drink , FUNNY (I love to joke around ) musically inclined and kind of a nerd!! aha I like quiet simple guys… Im a very laid back practical person. I really just like to kick it and be myself.
I have been divorced twice ( one unsaved and one that SAID he was saved )
when I got saved within the first marriage I was very young and he refused Christ so I had to leave the relationship also he was VERY unfaithful.
I was married the second time for over 6 years and in that relationship for over 7 years and he was extremely abusive to me and my children ( non with him ) I have been out of that relationship for over a year and a half and just want to be with someone that is my BEST FRIEND. Im not looking to get married soon, I just want things to happen naturally. I have taken this time reading book after book, working on every part of my emotional state and MAN WAS IT WORTH IT!!! I am a very different person now!!! I really need prayer for this. I feel that all the effort that I have made to be good to the people in my personal romantic relationships have been for nothing, only to be used and abused and now I just want someone for me… someone that wants to be my friend first and nothing more, but that has an interest in me in a special way, but is willing to take it SLOW. PLEASE pray that this man will come soon… I am 33 and want to be married someday yes, but It takes TIME to be a BEST FRIEND! Here is his description : Black male, deep eyes, dark hair. LOVES THE LORD WITH ALL HIS HEART ! Clean, Job, home, lover of family, No very small kids, but ok to have kids
Please keep me in your prayers ….
I want to meet him in two months…a little before this x mas.
This can be a truly good study for me, Should confess that youre one of the very best bloggers I ever saw.Thanks for posting this informative write-up.
Did I in my sleep perhaps pay you to make this comment? It hit me like a ton of bricks…
Hello and God bless!
I’ll start off by saying I’m a single mother and I’ve been alone for quite sometime. I’m 28 years old and I recently moved from SC to AZ. I meet some at at work and we’ve been talking everyday for 10 months. He calls me and text and we haven’t went beyond that point! I feel so strongly that he is the reason for me accepting the job offer that moved me so far from home. I love him so much and I pray he is the man I marry, spend the rest of my life with and I also desire to give him a son and daughter. Is it wrong to pray for him to be my husband?
God invited you to pray for your desires. The Lord says pray for “whatsover ye will.” It is a good thing to seek the will of the lord.
Ask him to show you his will.
I have been praying 16 years for a husband and you met your spouse within one week! That’s not fair!. Am almost 44 now. Will God ever answer my prayers?
you have given me a new hope, maybe it was God who brought me to this website to know how to do it.
i will give Jesus my specific request, and i know he will do it this time for me, as he knows i have been waiting for too long.. a lot longer than all of the people here.. but before the end of this year i will right you a comment here and tell you that i have found the man that god has promised me.
I am a 28 year old female wanting to get married from the age of 24. I just want someone and really feeling very lonely. All of my age are getting married and some already have kids. Please pray that I find a partner soon as I really want to get married

pliz pray for me am a 24 year old african lady needs to get married wen am 26.and i blive God is going to work miracles Amen.
Hello,
I am 38 years old female and never been married. I have always wanted to be happily married. My parents have been married for over 43 years and still love each other. I wanted to have a family since I was 22 years old and 16 years later I am still single and no husband or family. I am nice looking, have a college degree and a stable job. I tried to be choosy in my dates and dated men who were professing Christians. None of them asked me to marry. Now when I go on a date and the guys finds out I have never been married before he asks: how come you have never been married? The only answer I know is to say: “I just have not met the right one yet” I feel like they feel sorry for me. It has been soooo frustrating!!! I asked God: why? I felt almost like I have been cursed or something. All of my friends are married and have kids, except for me. I prayed and prayed for God for years to send me a spouse and nothing happened. Do you think somebody cursed me not to be married? I do want to be married and have kids. My sister is 42 and she has been divorced for 16 years. Her husband left her only after one year of marriage. She has been alone since then. I didn’t believe in such thing as curse, but now I feel like somebody cursed me and my sister to be alone. Can you help me?
Dear brethren, I really need help. I’m a lady aged 26 and based in South Africa I’ve been involved with my bf for a year n 1/2 now. We both christian though we go to different churches. He’s got 3 children from his previous relaltionships. A set of twins n 1 boy. Life was so sweet when it all began and he was so full of love. I accepted him in my life irregardless of his past. After 6 months in this relaltionship things started getting a bit sour but we fixed it. He complained that I’m always busy n neva have tym for him, therefore started to think I was seeing someone. It was painful knowing well how trustworthy I was for someone to think I was cheating. Things came back to normal again but everytime we have sex, we’d start to fight a day or two after. Again we fix the relationship. About a month ago he proposed marriage, oh my God I was excited I praised God, I sang the beautiful hyms in honour of his name. Little did I know dat a week later I’d discover he’s involved with onother woman. He’s asked for forgivness and I have forgiven him. But I don’t know something juss isn’t working, juss last week we started to fight over a small thing and he’s told me he’s tired of me n doesn’t want to talk. I’ve sent him msgs trying to make him understand how much I still luv him n how I’d like to see things work again. He won’t respond, juss yesterday he 4nd me to tell me to stop calling him. If I need anything I must send n sms. I’ve prayed several times to God for this relationship to work because I believe he’s the one meant for me. Honestly I don’t know where to start coz he’s just angry, doesn’t want to talk. Do I have to keep calling to try n make things work or should I juss leave him. I’m worried he might not even want to get back to me.
I wish this mircule happens for me too but hi good luck and god bless you
I believe he is able to bring it to pass
Hi
I enjoyed reading this site. I am praying and fasting for a Yahweh/God fearing husband. I would like to get married before June of 2012.
I am seeking GOD for a mate as well. I am 38 years old and is looking for direction from GOD.
i am a beautiful lady of 32yrs. but no one sems to be coming to me for marriage, help me pls….
I agree with all of you and will start to FAST in prayer for a suitable husband, its been a long time I have wanted tro get married and have a family and my husband and a family life….I’m happy to see others together but pains me to be alone. Please pray along with me for all our needs and wants. Lent is approaching and I hope I can pray and fast for a suitable life partner!! My heart is longing for it….someone who is equally loving, compassionate and understanding…Amen
Now I am 27, 2rw morning I will be 28(my birthday 2rw). I am visiting this site unfortunately. I have a hope ,soon i will get married.I am expecting miracle in this month. Pray for me.Because i am black and fat.Everyone is rejecting my proposal.But god is going to make things possible after reading this.
I had lost my hope and I wont pray and lived a life without god fear.From today onwards i will live for god.
Thank u.
pls God help me to marry cynthia as my wife that is my pray Amen
i am 32yrs lady, i have been praaying for an honouring husband all these yrs but prophecies for my marriage kept coming with dtes for it. but up till now am still belieiving God. i’ve given my life to Christ for the past 3yrs +,; stopped fornication or any close to it.
sir, please what do i do next? there’s no week i don’t fast and pray.
what do you suggest i do next?
pls am desperate.
pray that God should please show me mercy that i marry before September this yr (2012). and i will post my testimony on net.
God bless you!
Jesus says pray, believe you have received it and you shall have it. You say “pls am desperate.” If you had a husband now would you be desperate? But you say that’s true but “I don’t have a husband now.” When you say that how can you say that you have followed the scripture where Jesus said “believe you have all ready received it” and then you are saying “I Don’t have a husband, I am desperate.” How can you say that you are believing you have all ready received it with talk like that? The bible says “as your faith is so be it done unto you”. You are saying “pls am desperate.” and implying “I don’t have a husband now.” Don’t you see the system of “as your faith so be it done to you” is working perfectly in your case but with negative results you don’t want? Your faith IS WORKING but its working for what you don’t want because you are doing the opposite of what Jesus did.
And He will delight in the fear of the LORD, And He will not judge by what His eyes see, Nor make a decision by what His ears hear;
http://bible.cc/isaiah/11-3.htm
Your faith is not in “believing you have all ready received it” but in what you see. Your walking by sight. and therefore you are desperate. The kingdom of God is the opposite of walking by sight.
We walk by faith and not by sight. http://bible.cc/2_corinthians/5-7.htm
You are made in the image of God. If you were made in the image of a dolphin I would expect you to swim one day. If you were made in the image of a eagle I would expect you to fly one day. But since you are in the image of God I expect you to “call those things that are not as though they were”. I would expect you to act like God where it says “he spoke and it stood firm”. I would expect you to be a imitator of your father in heaven like a dear child. You believe first, later you receive it. When you believe you have received it for 5 days and then believe it didn’t happen on the 6th day you can forget about it. What if God started doubting there was light on the 6th day? What would have happened? You in his image. Read psalm 51.
In addition to what was just stated, align your words with the desire of your heart and visualise every day what it would be like to hold that husband every day. Begin to see it and “whatsoever you think in your heart will be (your reality).” This works. Speak it every day, write down your perfect mate and put this description on the fridge, bathroom mirror etc that was its always there to visualize and smile over and pray about.
Prayer is the master key am a single christian lady without kids and started praying for a right person but i believe God will answer me and your comments motivated me
Bless you! I read this on Tues of this week and was just AMAZED at that scripture Isaiah 34:16. Yes, I’ve read the Bible through several times but that was a revelatory moment for me: ‘none shall want her mate’. I came across this site at the right time and, believe me, I certainly SHALL be writing back with news! Thank you for sharing this, I really do appreciate it.
PS. Just to clarify – the quote I used above is from the King James Version where ‘want’ means ‘lack’. Blessings!
Such encouragement, thank you! May I ask YOu help me pray that God enriches and blesses my relationship with my boyfriend Jason that one day we will be wedded in Holy Matrimony?!
I really love this, it has given me hope. Im 43yrs and hve been praying for a partner, my problem is i never mentioned wen i wanted my husband, now that i have im waiting with an open heart. God bless you an keep you.
The moment i let go and prayed in faith, God sent me the one in that moment! im not joking! this man God sent me has been the best thing that’s happened to me. now i am praying for God to open doors for us to get married. Amen
Greetings in his precious name!!! Thanx a lot for the comments. I loved the story and i am actually praying for a husband. a god fearing man. I am 49 and never married. My faith tells me that with god everything is possible and its never too late! Pray with me..
