Lord, I pray that you would keep my son and his girlfriend safe and healthy.

I pray that you would keep my son and his girlfriend safe and healthy. I pray that you would watch over them, keep them close to you, and guide their steps in the right direction.

I ask this in Jesus’ name. Amen

Help the two of them grow in love for one another and increase their trust in You.

Please help the two of them grow in love for one another and increase their trust in You. Help them learn to trust each other, trusting that You have a plan for their lives that includes each other. Please continue to guide them as they grow together and strengthen their relationship, so that it reflects Your love for them both.

Lord, I pray that they would honor each other and treat each other with respect.

Honor is probably one of the most important words in your relationship with your son. Honor means to respect someone, to show esteem for them, and to treat that person with dignity and concern. It is also a reciprocal relationship: if I am going to honor you, then you need to honor me as well. This is not a one-way street; it’s not just about what YOU do (honor ME), but rather what WE do together–with each other. When people say “I can’t believe how much I love him,” or “I never thought I’d be able to trust her again?” What they’re really saying is this: “I didn’t realize how much he could change my life so positively.” He’s changed my perspective on life by adding value into every area of my life! He makes me want more out of life because he shows me that there IS more.” It’s not just about having fun together now; it’s about creating something amazing together for our future kids!”

May they pursue what is good for the other and always look out for the other’s best interest.

May they pursue what is good for the other and always look out for the other’s best interest. They will feel a sense of urgency to protect each other from anything that could harm the relationship. May their hearts be knit together with love and their commitment to one another grow stronger over time. Help them to see that purity and self-control are vital in building a strong foundation for their marriage, as well as wisdom, discernment, and love.

Lord, watch over them as they spend time together and give them wisdom to make good choices.

  • Be careful not to over-protect your son and his girlfriend.
  • Keep them safe from the dangers of the internet, alcohol, drugs and driving.
  • Give them wisdom to make good choices about sexual activity (or lack thereof).

Give them self-control and grant them discernment to flee from temptation.

Please give them wisdom to make good choices and give them self-control. Grant them discernment to flee from temptation, that they might not be overcome by the evil one, but rather stand firm in the face of adversity. Help them find confidence in Your love for them so that they can act according to Your will.

Lord, help them to have a desire for purity in their relationship and to be wise about boundaries in their relationship until marriage.

  • Lord, help them to have a desire for purity in their relationship and to be wise about boundaries in their relationship until marriage.
  • Help them to resist temptation by avoiding situations that could be sexually tempting, such as being alone together or watching movies with sexual content.
  • Help them to find ways of expressing affection other than sexual behavior if they are tempted to engage in sexual activity before marriage.
  • You have made it very clear that sex outside of marriage is sin because it violates the sacredness of the union between husband and wife (Matthew 5:27-30). Please help each of these young people understand this truth better so that they can keep themselves pure for each other when you bring someone special into their lives whom you will bless with the gift of marriage.

Help them find confidence in Your love for them so that they can act according to Your will.

Please help them find confidence in Your love for them so that they can act according to Your will. Your love is unconditional, perfect, eternal, faithful and forgiving. It is pure and patient, kind and not proud. Please help them to have a deep understanding of what it means to live their lives with You as the center of their lives. If they are struggling with temptation or sin please give them strength to resist those temptations by strengthening their faith in You alone. Thank You Father!

Pray this prayer to help your son or daughter make wise choices while dating

Dear Lord,

I pray You would give my son or daughter a heart for purity in their relationship. I ask that as they grow in their dating relationship with one another, that they would desire to hold off on physical intimacy until marriage. I ask for Your wisdom for them in this area of their lives so that they may know how to keep themselves pure and remain safe from sexual sin before marriage. Please give them the strength and grace to resist temptation when it arises. In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.”

Remember, the best way to pray for your son or daughter is to pray for them daily. You can also pray for each other as a family—and remember that God hears all of our prayers! The more often we pray and talk with Him, the stronger our bond with Him will become.
