You might have assumed I’d highlight a verse about marriage, like Ephesians 5:22-33. Or maybe a verse from Song of Solomon. Or, maybe even something about being equally yoked with the right person, like 2 Corinthians 6:14.
There are times when you don’t need to change anything you believe or are doing. Sometimes it’s just not God’s will to give you that blessing right now. However, there are other times when God wants to bless you with something but you are missing it.
Finding the person God has for you is not just about waiting passively or rushing ahead in your own strength. It is about seeking the Lord, aligning your desires with his will, and praying with a heart that is open to his leading.
Without hope, our hearts sink into despair. With it, we can endure hardship, waiting, and even disappointment with the assurance that God is still working (Romans 15:13).
Does God want you with that person or does he have someone else for you? Will something happen between you two if you keep waiting, or is the Lord leading you to move on? How will you know if you are praying about the right person?
1 Corinthians 14:33 states, “For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.” This means God is not going to cause confusion in your life when you are seeking to follow him. However, this does not mean God always prevents the confusion we experience after he speaks to us.
Your body is a big part of who God made you. And yet, so often as Christians, we separate the spiritual from the physical. According to Scripture, however, the way our bodies feel can be used to also help us know God’s will.
