Prayer Topic: Singleness
People who are single and/or are choosing to be single, are in need of support. It is easy to wonder if there is anything wrong or ask a lot of questions about why. Remind them that God is the author of our stories and His will for us is to give us a hope, and a future. It is important to encourage single people to choose God and His will for them despite cultural rules or voices that say otherwise.
Possible Things to Pray for:
- Patience for God’s will to unfold in their lives
- Strength to stay pure and focused on Christ.
- Choosing to focus on God’s story instead of culture/society’s story
- Ask of joy and peace during this season/for this choice
- Trust in God’s leading within you.
