A Prayer for Clarity
A friend was in my dreams last week and then the next morning her name popped up on PrayerMate, so I texted to see what I could specifically pray for. Her request clarity. I wrote her a prayer and have tweaked it a bit for you and for me!
Father, only you understand the choices we each face. You see what is going on in each of our lives at the deepest level. Fill us with discernment and clarity of mind as we make decisions as to what honors You.
Don’t allow us to be influenced by the world, but guided by the Holy Spirit in all that we are called to do. Keep us from growing weary, unless You are using weariness as a tool to lead us elsewhere. Help us rest well at night and awaken each day to live out Romans 12:2 and “be transformed by the renewing of our minds” so that we work out your will in every situation we are called to speak into.
Remind us this battle is not against flesh and blood, although it certainly may seem that way at times.
Father we know how much you love us and care about our state of mind and the choices we make. Assure us when we call out to You, that we can be confident You will answer in your perfect time. Help us submit to your ways even when they are hard and say, “Not my will, but your will be done Father.”
Be a light unto our paths and show us where to step next. In Jesus’ name Amen.
God’s Word is a light and a sword!
For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy-meditate on these things. Philippians 4:8
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful. Colossians 3:15
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. Pslam 46:10
