I may just be repeating what someone else said but God always answers prayer. Yes no or wait, seem to be his usual answers. I know the Bible speaks of God being a jealous God. His jealousy is not like and immature jealousy such as a child want another child's toy. His jealousy is, like all his Commandments, for our good. Many May disagree with me. I believe that God is wise enough to know that if we're concentrating on him and his will for our life we will be the most Blessed that we can be. I absolutely believe God can bring us some one, as long as we keep things in perspective. What's God first and our mate second.

No, a lot of Christians are ignorant thinking God will just give u someone, he will bless u but not magically give you one you have to go out and find a partner yourself thats not satanic, you both have to be reborn again and evenly yoked

I prayed for years for God to help me find the woman who is meant to be my wife. I'm not sure if I'm meant to be alone or the time is just not right yet, but I've pretty much given up on it happening. Watching so many marriages fail makes it harder for me to open up to it.

I have prayed for a family's wife and she turned out fine, I have also prayed for my Grandfather when he had cancer, but he died, whatever you pray may not happen and it may not be miraculous but it is God's plan, he also won't give a definite answer.

God is a fictional character made by people for for power and money. Etc etc. So no in that sense.

But if you feel the desire/need to believe in one then it's probably a good idea to pray.

As i do not believe it will work but even kind finding the words to describe your ideal man or etc can help you visualize what you are looking for in a man.

It will probably help you to stay away from men who are more "bad". Also friends with benefits and hookups are not that common on religious groups, so it helps to avoid std's and other such issues.

Which is only a good thing.

no, i wouldn't. there's actually quite good studies showing that prayer makes people worse. i know that seems counter-intuitive but it's a psychological auto-suggestive effect. if people pray for you, shit must be really bad... and the weird part that effect even occurs if the person who's being prayed for doesn't even know about it.

When you pray for your spouse, pray how you would pray if you were already together. It's not just about Him bringing them into your life, it's about both of you being at the right place so you're equally yoked.

Well I believe that you should pray for your future marriage partner and God will really answer your prayer even if the list of traits of your future marriage partner is long and specific. He will give it to you. 💖

If you truly believe that might help, however putting forth an effort to find your parfner, ultimately is best. waiting for a prayer to be heard and or answered im afraid you will be waiting for eternity.

Not choosing an option as it is not in the poll. I'm currently doing this hopefully things will straighten out in time.

[RawIronhide]

I think if there's one thing God can't do for you, it's this. God doesn't know what your heart wants any more than you do.

[cth96190]

If you call a deafening silence, with periods of soul-crushing heartbreak and loneliness an answer to prayer, then God answered.
Apparently, God delights in my pain and wants me to die as a crazy old cat man.
I asked God for someone to love when I was a teenager. What I met were Jezebels and worse.

[zagor]

You mean to find one for yourself? I suppose, but the time would be better spent putting yourself in situations where you meet suitable folk.

Of course with covid, everything is messed up right now.

[DeeDeeDeVour]

B. I did not do that.
I didn't have to. God blessed me early on in my life with a man who has all I could possibly dream of in a husband.

[ChiTown33]

God will always answer your prayer. Doesn't mean it's going to be yes. And it doesn't mean it will be what you expect. God will always give you what you need. Not what you want.

[Jjpayne]

I'd really wish that to be the case but I think God has his own timing and won't give us something until it's time to receive it or until we are ready for it

[HikerDude]

No, I think it's our responsibility here on earth to find the people who are meant to be ours.

[Desconhecida]

of course! We should always pray for the Lord and He will always listen to us, giving us what we need (sometimes not what we want)...

[invalid1]

Where is the option where "God gives no fuck".
Grow up man.

[Varanus]

Imaginary beings aren't going to help you. You'll only get what you seek by making the effort. Reaching out.

[collie22]

I always think God will answer with blessings if it's his will

Is this a message from God?
