Through prayer, we can seek the guidance and wisdom we need to navigate through life’s many challenges.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You today humbly, acknowledging that I don’t have all the answers, but knowing that You do. I pray for Your divine wisdom and guidance as I navigate through my life.
Please enlighten my mind and widen my understanding, so I can discern right from wrong, truth from lies, and the important from the unimportant. Guide my steps, Lord, so that they lead to the path You have designed for me.
Bestow upon me the wisdom to recognize opportunities You place in my path and the courage to seize them. Help me to make decisions in accordance with Your will and aligned with Your Holy Word. Teach me, Father, to trust in Your timing and Your ways, even when I can’t see it.
Above all, I pray for the wisdom to put You first in my life. To seek You in all that I do, and to always remember that Your wisdom and guidance are far superior to worldly knowledge.
In the name of Jesus, I pray, Amen.
