We join you in seeking God’s perfect will, clarity, and revelation, for His Word declares that He will instruct us and teach us in the way we should go (Psalm 32:8). You’ve come to the right place—only in Christ can we find true understanding, for He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). We praise you for invoking the name of Jesus, for there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12), and it is only through Him that we boldly approach the throne of grace to receive mercy and find help in our time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
The Holy Spirit is indeed our Helper, sent by the Father to guide us into all truth (John 16:13). If you are seeking God’s plan for your life, we encourage you to first ensure that your heart is fully surrendered to Christ. Have you repented of your sins and placed your faith in Jesus alone for salvation? If not, we urge you to do so today, for without faith in Him, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). Salvation is not found in good works, religion, or self-effort, but in Christ alone—by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9). If you have already trusted in Jesus, then you can be assured that the Holy Spirit dwells within you, and He will never lead you astray. He will convict you of sin, guide you into righteousness, and reveal God’s will as you seek Him with a humble and obedient heart.
The Bible tells us that God’s ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are far above ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). Sometimes, His plan may not make sense to us in the moment, but we are called to trust Him wholeheartedly, leaning not on our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6). If you are feeling confused or uncertain, we encourage you to spend time in God’s Word daily, for it is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path (Psalm 119:105). Prayerfully ask the Lord to open your eyes to see the wonders of His law (Psalm 119:18) and to renew your mind by the transforming power of His truth (Romans 12:2). Fast from distractions if necessary, and seek Him with all your heart, for He promises that when we draw near to Him, He will draw near to us (James 4:8).
We also caution you to test every thought, vision, or impression against Scripture, for not every spirit is from God (1 John 4:1). The enemy can deceive even the elect if we are not grounded in the truth (Matthew 24:24). If you sense the Lord speaking to you, ask: Does this align with His Word? Does it glorify Jesus? Does it bear the fruit of the Spirit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23)? If not, it is not from the Lord.
Perhaps you are seeking clarity about a specific decision—whether it be a career, a relationship, a move, or another major life choice. If so, we urge you to examine your motives. Are you seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33), or are you being driven by fear, selfish ambition, or worldly desires? The Lord delights in those who fear Him and put their hope in His unfailing love (Psalm 147:11). If your request is pure and aligned with His will, He will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:6).
If your question involves relationships, we must remind you that God’s design for marriage is sacred—a lifelong covenant between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:24, Matthew 19:4-6). Any relationship outside of this design, including premarital intimacy, homosexuality, or cohabitation, is sin and must be repented of. If you are in a relationship, ask yourself: Is this person a born-again believer who loves the Lord with all their heart? Are you both committed to purity, to honoring God in your courtship, and to marriage as His Word defines it? If not, we urge you to flee from sin and seek godly counsel, for bad company corrupts good character (1 Corinthians 15:33). The Lord is faithful, and He will provide a spouse in His timing if that is His will for you—but you must wait on Him and not rush ahead in your own strength.
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this precious soul who seeks Your face. Lord, You are the God of all wisdom, understanding, and revelation, and we ask that You would open the eyes of their heart to know the hope to which You have called them (Ephesians 1:17-18). Touch their heart with Your truth, Holy Spirit, and remove every veil of confusion, doubt, or deception. Let Your Word be a lamp to their feet and a light to their path, guiding them in every decision and step they take.
Father, if there is any sin in their life that is hindering their relationship with You, we ask that You would convict them by Your Spirit and grant them the strength to repent and turn away from it. Cleanse them by the blood of Jesus and restore unto them the joy of Your salvation (Psalm 51:12). Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, reveal Your perfect will to them in Your perfect timing. If they are waiting on You for direction, give them patience and faith to trust in Your sovereignty. If they are facing a crossroads, make Your path clear and shut the doors that are not of You. Let them not be led by their own desires or the voices of the world, but by Your Spirit alone.
We rebuked any spirit of confusion, fear, or distraction in the name of Jesus. No weapon formed against this child of God shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17), and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You shall condemn. Let Your truth prevail in their life, and let them walk in the freedom and victory that Christ has already won for them.
Father, we thank You that You are good, and Your love endures forever. We trust that You will lead them beside still waters and restore their soul (Psalm 23:2-3). May they find their satisfaction in You alone, knowing that You are their portion and their cup (Psalm 16:5).
We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
