Presentation matters to God when we bring ourselves before him. Sexual immorality has ruin Godly purposes. We must learn to run away from such a sin with every thing within us. When one is unmarried, there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to stay in the same location with a man or woman intended to get married to if you have no self control. According to 1 Thessalonians 4:3 “For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality.” God’s will is holiness.

Therefore, in preparation and waiting on the Lord for a Godly marriage you must understand you are God’s Temple, and he therefore expects holiness because the Holy Spirit lives within you.

Romans 12:1 “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship.”

When you come to God, you are presenting a sacrifice- your living body and there is a condition of how it ought to be presented; living and holy, therefore God accepts it. When you put your faith in the completed work on the cross, the living Christ lives in you, gives you life and makes you holy.

Pray that those waiting on God for Godly spouses should guard their lives to present them as living and holy so that God will accept their sacrifice.

Pray for the grace to have an understanding of what God expects while waiting on him.

Romans 6:13 “Do not present the parts of your body to sin as instruments of wickedness, but present yourselves to God as those who have been brought from death to life; and present the parts of your body to Him as instruments of righteousness.”

Pray that they will not use any part of their body for what God has not approved.

Psalm 37:7 “Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes.”

Pray that God will grant the waiting and patient grace. Pray that God will help them not to look at others but focus on God alone.

Revelation 3:20 “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come into him and will dine with him, and he with me.”

Pray that they will open up thier hearts as to what God has and wills for them.

Psalm 139 “23 Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! 24 And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting!”

Ask God to check their hearts and remove whatever is not if God.

Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”

Pray that as they wait, they will be found ready for the next ride in life. A wife is already prepared to be a wife. Likewise, the husband. When they meet, they are easily melted as a living sacrifice before the lord.

2 Corinthians 10:3-4 “For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses.”

Pray against forces of wickedness that work against the purpose s of God for Godly marriages

2 Samuel 22:3 “ My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge;

My savior, You save me from violence.”

Pray for the grace to remain under the covering of the Lord.

Mark 10:6-8

6 “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female. 7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, 8 and the two will become one flesh. So they are no longer two, but one flesh.”

Finally, marriage is between two kinds of people; a man and a woman. Nothing else. Pray that God will guide those waiting on God not to settle for any form of ungodliness.
