God's plan

We come before the Lord with a heartfelt plea for understanding, clarity, and divine revelation regarding His perfect will for your life. The cry of your heart is one we share, for we all long to walk in the fullness of God’s plan, which is good, pleasing, and perfect (Romans 12:2). Father, we thank You that Your Word declares, *"Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path"* (Psalm 119:105). You do not leave us in darkness, but You reveal Your truth to those who seek You with sincerity.
We recognize that seeking God’s will begins with a surrendered heart, one that says, *"Not my will, but Yours be done"* (Luke 22:42). Too often, we can become entangled in our own desires, fears, or the opinions of others, which can cloud our ability to discern Your voice. But Your Word assures us, *"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight"* (Proverbs 3:5-6). This is not a passive trust, but an active, daily choice to lay down our plans and submit to Your leading.
Holy Spirit, we ask You to touch this dear one’s heart with Your truth in a way that pierces through confusion, doubt, or deception. Reveal any areas where they may be holding onto their own agenda or resisting Your will. Your Word warns us, *"There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death"* (Proverbs 14:12). We do not want to walk in a path that *seems* right—we want to walk in *Your* right path. Open their spiritual eyes to see as You see, and soften their heart to receive Your correction with humility.
Jesus, You are indeed *the* Way, *the* Truth, and *the* Life (John 14:6). There is no guidance, no revelation, and no true understanding apart from You. We declare that You are leading this one, even now, and we ask that You make Your will unmistakably clear. Whether through Your Word, the counsel of godly believers, circumstances, or the still small voice of the Holy Spirit, speak loudly and clearly. Let them hear Your voice above all others, for Your sheep know Your voice (John 10:27).
We also lift up any areas where fear may be hindering their ability to step into God’s plan. Fear of the unknown, fear of failure, or even fear of what God may ask of them can paralyze us. But Your Word commands us, *"Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand"* (Isaiah 41:10). We rebuke every spirit of fear and declare that perfect love—Your love—casts out all fear (1 John 4:18). Fill them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
Father, we also ask that You reveal any unconfessed sin or areas of disobedience that may be blocking their ability to hear from You. Your Word is clear: *"If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me"* (Psalm 66:18). We do not say this to bring condemnation, for there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1), but we say it in love, that they may walk in the fullness of fellowship with You. If there is anything—pride, unforgiveness, bitterness, or compromise—we ask that You bring it to light and grant them the grace to repent and turn away from it.
We pray specifically for wisdom in the decisions they are facing. Whether it is regarding their calling, relationships, career, or daily life, Your Word promises, *"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him"* (James 1:5). We ask that You grant them supernatural wisdom, not just knowledge, but the ability to apply Your truth in every situation. Let them not be swayed by the wisdom of this world, which is foolishness in Your sight (1 Corinthians 3:19), but let them be firmly rooted in Your eternal truth.
Lord, we also lift up their relationships. If they are seeking a spouse, we pray that You would bring a godly man or woman into their life—someone who loves You above all else and is committed to walking in Your ways. Your Word instructs us, *"Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers"* (2 Corinthians 6:14), and we ask that You guard their heart from any relationship that does not honor You. If they are currently in a relationship that is not aligned with Your Word—whether it involves fornication, emotional dependency, or an unequal yoking—we ask that You give them the courage to walk away and trust You for Your best. Marriage is a sacred covenant, and we pray that any courtship they enter would have marriage as its ultimate goal, with both individuals seeking to honor You in every way.
We rebuke every lie of the enemy that says God’s plan is not good, that His will is too difficult, or that they must settle for less than His best. The enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we may have life, and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We declare that the thief has no place in this one’s life, and we stand in the authority of Jesus’ name to break every chain of deception, confusion, or delay.
Father, we also ask that You surround them with godly counsel. Your Word tells us, *"Where there is no counsel, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is safety"* (Proverbs 11:14). Bring trusted, mature believers into their life who can speak truth, offer wisdom, and pray alongside them. Let them not isolate themselves but walk in community, where iron sharpens iron (Proverbs 27:17).
Finally, we pray for patience. Sometimes Your will unfolds in ways we do not expect, and the waiting can be difficult. But Your Word reminds us, *"Those who wait for the Lord will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint"* (Isaiah 40:31). Teach them to wait on You, trusting that Your timing is perfect.
Heavenly Father, we lift this dear one up to You now, asking that You would do exceedingly, abundantly above all that they could ask or think (Ephesians 3:20). Let Your will be done in their life, just as it is in heaven. We declare that they are not left to figure things out on their own, for You are their Good Shepherd, and You lead them beside still waters (Psalm 23:2). Speak, Lord, for Your servant is listening (1 Samuel 3:9). In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

We're standing with you, dear friend, as you seek God's will. We believe that He has a perfect plan for your life, one that's good, pleasing, and perfect (Romans 12:2). We're asking the Holy Spirit to touch your heart with truth, to reveal any areas where you might be holding onto your own agenda or resisting God's will. We want you to walk in God's right path, not just what seems right to you. Trust that God is leading you, even now, and ask Him to make His will clear to you. Whether through His Word, godly counsel, or the Holy Spirit's prompting, we pray that you'll hear His voice above all others. We're also praying for wisdom in the decisions you're facing. God promises to give wisdom generously to those who ask (James 1:5), so we're asking Him to grant you supernatural wisdom, not just knowledge, but the ability to apply God's truth in every situation. We're believing with you for God's best in every area of your life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
