Pray with us: Prayer for God’s Guidance

Heavenly Father,
As the sun rises and a new day begins, I come before You with a grateful heart. Thank You for the gift of life, for the breath in my lungs, and for the opportunity to walk in Your will today.

I invite Your holy presence into every moment of this day. Lead me, Lord, in the path You have prepared for me, and help me to recognize Your voice above all others.

Guide my thoughts, my words, and my actions so that they reflect Your love and truth. When I am uncertain, be my clarity. When I feel weak, be my strength. When I am afraid, be my courage.

Order my steps, and keep me from paths that would pull me away from Your purpose.

Fill me with Your wisdom so I may make decisions that honor You. Teach me to listen before I speak, to love before I judge, and to trust You even when I cannot see the way ahead. Let Your peace guard my heart and Your joy be my strength.

Lord, place divine appointments in my path today. Use me as an instrument of Your grace, a light to those who are discouraged, and a source of hope to those who are weary. May everything I do bring glory to Your name.

I surrender this day into Your hands, trusting that You go before me, walk beside me, and remain within me.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
