God does not expect us to face our decisions alone; He invites us to seek His wisdom and direction.
Every day, we make decisions that can influence our future, our relationships, and our spiritual growth. Some seem small, while others can completely change the course of our lives. Many times, we first look for answers in our experience, in the opinions of others, or in what seems most convenient, but God invites us to come to Him first. Seeking God’s counsel does not mean ignoring the wisdom of other people, but recognizing that He must be our primary source of direction. Prayer allows us to pause, listen, and remember that we do not have to depend only on our own abilities. Solomon asked God for wisdom because he understood that ruling well required something greater than his own knowledge. When we seek the Lord before deciding, we demonstrate trust in His authority and acknowledge that His plans are better than ours.
Take time today to present a pending decision before God and ask Him for wisdom before you act.
Lord, forgive me for the times I have made decisions without first seeking Your direction. Teach me to pause and ask You before moving forward. Give me wisdom to recognize what is right, humility to accept Your counsel, and patience to wait for Your timing. May my decisions reflect trust in You and not merely my own desires. Guide every step of my life according to Your perfect will. Amen.
