The same God who spoke the entire world into existence is concerned about every aspect of your life, including the choices that you make. Every day, all of us are faced with thousands of choices. Some of those decisions are relatively superficial.
Ultimately, deciding what color shirt you’re going to where today won’t have any far-reaching impacts on your future. However, there are other decisions that we make every day that can not only shape our own futures, but they can also impact the people around us. God is invested in those decisions and wants to lead you in the right direction.
Pray These Verses
Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
Joshua 24:15 (NIV)
But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
Psalm 86:11 (NIV)
Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart that I may fear your name.
Pray This Prayer
Heavenly Father, You know the decisions that I am faced with today. You are also fully aware that I want to make the kinds of decisions that are pleasing in Your eyes. I know that You have given me the ability to discern Your will through the Holy Spirit and Your Word, but I need Your help in the moment.
I know that leaning on my own understanding will only lead to confusion and heartache, but I know that if I acknowledge You in every choice I make, You will direct my paths into a place of prosperity and blessing.
Today, I choose You. I know that each day requires an active choice to serve You, and today, I boldly make that choice. Teach me Your ways, Lord. I want to fully rely on your faithfulness. Help my heart to be undivided so that I can fully revere You the way that I want to. I ask these things in Christ’s name, Amen.
Thank God
Heavenly Father, thank You for giving me the ability to know Your will for my life. I know that Scripture contains the answers that I need for all of life’s problems, and that if I will adhere to what Your Word teaches, I will never take the wrong path.
Thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit who lives inside me, enabling me to fully follow Your beautiful will for my life. I am amazed that the same God who spoke the world into existence wants to be involved in the daily decisions that I make. Thank You for being a God who is involved. In Christ’s name, Amen.
