Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before you today seeking wisdom and understanding. Lord, I realise I walk in the unknown when I lack understanding, so I ask for your guidance. Open my spiritual eyes and ears to understand your truths and principles.
May your word become a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Help me to understand complexities in your word and life, and fill me with your knowledge. Bestow upon me the spirit of discernment, so that I can make right judgments that align with your will.
I humbly ask you, Lord, to align my thoughts with yours and transform my mind according to your word. Increase my understanding and grant me wisdom to handle all situations with grace and dignity. I trust in you, Father, and I know that you will guide me.
In Jesus’s name, I pray. Amen.
