  • Praying to Know God’s Will

    I delight to do Your Will, O Lord my God, and I shall keep Your Word within my heart (Psalm 40:8).  I pray Father, and I desire that You would fill me with the knowledge of Your Will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding so I may walk worthy of You, fully pleasing You and desiring to please You in all things, while being fruitful in every good work (Colossians 1:9-10).

    God’s Will is peace for our souls. Let us strive to know it.

    Because of these promises, I am asking for Your wisdom to know what to do in every situation and to be on top of every circumstance, that I may bring You glory and that our joy may be full.  Direct my steps, O Lord, and make them sure (Proverbs 16:9).  Please keep me from being vague, thoughtless, or foolish so I may understand and firmly grasp what the Will of the Lord is (Ephesians 5:17). I aim to be a wise child and heed my Father’s instructions (Proverbs 13:1).  I pray to stand firm and mature in spiritual growth, convinced and fully assured in everything willed by God (Colossians 4:12).

    Father, You have destined and appointed me to come progressively to know Your Will – that is to perceive, to recognize more strongly and clearly, and to become better and more intimately acquainted with Your Will (Acts 22:14).  I thank You, dear Father, that You are instructing me in the way which I should go and that You are guiding me with Your eye (Psalm 32:8).  I thank You for Your guidance and leading concerning Your Will, Your plan, and Your purpose for my life. 

    Thank You, wonderful Father, for giving me an abundance of wisdom and understanding through Your Word.  You have made known unto me the mystery of Your Will, according to Your good pleasure (Ephesians 1:8-9).  I aim to single-mindedly walk in that wisdom, asking for Your guidance in every matter (James 1:5). Please, guide me to follow Your Will. I know that if I strive to always remain in Your Will, You will guide me with Your counsel (Psalm 73:24). Whether I turn to the right or to the left, faithful Father, please cause my ears to hear a voice behind me saying, “this is the way; walk in it” (Isaiah 30:21). I am trusting that in everything Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast (Psalm 139:10).

    Thank You, Father, that my path is growing brighter and brighter until it reaches the full light of day (Revelation 4:8).
