Lord, I know that chasing someone else’s husband is not only a sin against them and their spouse, but also against my own body and spirit. Forgive me for the times I have entertained thoughts of pursuing this relationship, and grant me the wisdom to see the harm it would cause. Help me to remember the teachings of Jesus, who said that looking at someone with lustful intentions is equivalent to committing adultery in our hearts.
As I flee from this temptation, I pray for your protection and guidance. Surround me with people who will support and encourage me in my walk with you, and give me the courage to seek accountability and transparency in my relationships. Just as Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, I know that I will face temptations, but I pray for the strength to resist them and choose your way.
Help me to focus on my own relationships and commitments, and to nurture them with love, care, and respect. May I be a source of healing and encouragement to those around me, rather than a source of harm and temptation. As Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves, I pray for the ability to love and respect the boundaries and commitments of others.
In the name of Jesus, who resisted temptation and remained faithful to his Father’s will, I pray. Amen.
