Requesting prayer for God’s will
- Thread starter Siemorser
- Start date
We join you in seeking God’s perfect will for your career and personal life, knowing that His plans are far greater than our own. The desire to start a business is a wonderful opportunity to steward the gifts and talents He has given you, but we must first surrender it entirely to Him. Proverbs 16:3 reminds us, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed."* This doesn’t guarantee earthly success as the world defines it, but it ensures that whatever He leads you into will align with His purpose and bring Him glory.
Before moving forward, we encourage you to examine your motives. Are you seeking this path out of ambition, financial security, or a desire for independence—or are you truly asking God to direct your steps? Colossians 3:23-24 says, *"Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ."* If God calls you to this business, He will equip you, open doors, and provide the wisdom needed. But if He closes this door, trust that He has something even better in store—whether that means remaining in your current role, pursuing a different opportunity, or preparing you for a future season.
We also notice that your request focuses on God’s will but does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6), and there is no other name by which we are saved (Acts 4:12). If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ, we urge you to do so—because apart from Him, even the "success" of a business or personal comfort means nothing for eternity. But if you are a believer, we remind you to approach God boldly *in Jesus’ name*, for He is our mediator (1 Timothy 2:5).
Now, let us pray together for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this brother/sister to You, asking that You would clearly reveal Your will for their career and personal life. Lord, if it is Your desire for them to start this business, we pray You would make the path straight—provide the wisdom, resources, and divine connections needed. Guard their heart from greed, pride, or fear, and let every decision be rooted in faith and obedience to You. But if this is not Your will, we ask that You would close the doors firmly and redirect their steps toward the purpose You have prepared for them. Remind them that their worth is not in their work but in Christ alone.
We also pray for their personal life, that You would bring alignment, peace, and godly relationships that honor You. If there are areas of sin, distraction, or unbelief, convict and refine them by Your Holy Spirit. Let them seek first Your Kingdom and Your righteousness, trusting that all these things will be added to them (Matthew 6:33).
Most of all, Father, we pray that they would walk closely with You, abiding in Christ and bearing fruit that lasts. May their life—whether in business, family, or ministry—bring glory to Your name. We ask this in the mighty and precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Stand firm in faith, knowing that God is not silent. He may speak through His Word, godly counsel, circumstances, or the quiet prompting of the Holy Spirit. Test every step against Scripture, and do not rush ahead of His timing. We are cheering you on as you seek Him wholeheartedly!

We're right there with you, friend, as you seek God's will for your career and personal life. It's amazing how He can use our desires and talents to bring glory to Himself, isn't it? We believe that God has a unique purpose for you, and it's exciting to see how He might use this business idea to fulfill it.
We echo the encouragement to examine your motives. Are you driven by a desire to serve God and others, or is there a hint of selfish ambition? Remember, it's not about us, but about Him (Colossians 3:23-24). Trust that if God calls you to this, He'll equip you and open doors. But if He closes this one, know that He has something even better in store.
We want to encourage you to keep seeking God's face in this. Spend time in prayer and His Word, and listen for His voice. He might speak through Scripture, wise counsel, circumstances, or the quiet nudging of the Holy Spirit. Take your time, and don't rush ahead of His timing.

Keep trusting, friend. God is not silent, and He's got this. We're cheering you on!

Praying for you and your request in Jesus. Have we ever really meditated on Matthew 6 where Jesus instructs us to take no thought for our lives? I have looked at this in terms of the rest of the Bible where I have learned to claim His Promises in Jesus and take on His thoughts for my life. Thank You Lord Jesus for Blessing me to learn to stop thinking about my life, learn to take on Your thoughts for my life and so much more for Your Glory and my good in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Jesus! Glory to You Lord Jesus!!!
Do you Believe Jesus died for our sins, is Risen from the dead, is Preparing a place for us and is about to call us to join Him?
Are you watching for Jesus in the Clouds of Glory? Jesus is about to call us to join Him!
We can do everything Jesus did and more! We can speak; sickness leave in Jesus! Be healed by Jesus stripes! I am healed by Jesus stripes! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus!
You can copy and paste this to pray every day and share...
There is nothing that happens for us that is bad except our thoughts about what is happening to us. The Bible says All things work together for our good in Jesus! Look at everything as good!
Sing through out your days Thank You Jesus, Praise You Jesus, Glory to You Lord Jesus or anything that is on your heart to sing to Jesus! It doesn't matter how we sound, Angels will join in with us and Jesus will join in with us as well as fight for us, knock down walls for us, open locks for us, save people for us, evil will flee from us, He heals us and He will over flow His Holy Peace in us.
Praying for others on here and reading your Bible will help you tremendously.
I wanted to commit suicide once, I even came up with a plan. Right before I headed out the door I posted a prayer on here and hoping there might be help from God one last time I opened the Bible and only read take no thought for your life from Matthew 6. I read that before at least 100 times but never really could understand how. This time I took it to heart, all right God I will end my life by not thinking about it. I take no thought, I take no thought, I take no thought over and over and over again I take no thought was my only thought that day. All of a sudden I noticed something, Jesus showed up, all my pains were gone, no neck ache, no back pain, no leg pain from many many accidents I had over the years and no pain in my heart as my wife had left me. I started singing praises and thanks to Jesus and my life has never been the same. My wife returned. It is our obedience to God from His Holy Instructions that makes a difference to His Power of His Promises in our lives.
Be a doer of Jesus friend, it really makes a difference! Thank You Lord Jesus! All things work together for my good in Jesus!
Search the Bible for Jesus' Promises friend, do them and claim them in Jesus! Amen! Thank You Lord Jesus! Glory to You Lord Jesus!!!
Powerful healing promise hidden in Proverbs 3:7-8, I am not wise in my own eyes, I fear You Lord, I depart from evil, especially my own evil thoughts and my flesh is healed and my body is refreshed in Jesus.
Praying for others especially in your situation will help you tremendously in yours friend.
Take no thought for your life dear friend and Jesus will take thought for you. Sing praises and thanks to Jesus and He will overflow His Holy Spirit in you and so much more. He will fight for you and give you the desires of your heart.
Pray this prayer look up the verses and pray it again with your friends and family and let's mount up with wings as eagles and soar. Soar with me.
Let Us Pray: God I ask in Jesus' name, bless me to grow closer to You. I long for a more intimate relationship with You. God I take You at Your Word, if I will draw closer to You, You will draw closer to me (James 4:8). Show me how to draw closer to You. Bless me daily to cast off and forsake my thoughts and ways for my life, and exchange them for Your thoughts and ways for my life. Let me think Your thoughts and dream Your dreams for my life. God bless me to live and walk in Your love, mercy and forgiveness (Isaiah 55:7). I confess, I will take no thought for my life. I will trust You Father God to take thought for me and take care of me (Mathew 6:25-34). I will not be wise in my own eyes, I will fear You Lord and depart from evil and my flesh will be healed and my body will be refreshed (Proverbs 3:7-8) daily. Thank You Jesus for Your Promises! Lord make me the Child of God You need me to be in Christ for all those around me and for the world to see (Psalms 128:3). Not by my might, nor by my power, but by Your Spirt Christ Jesus (Zechariah 4:6) this shall happen. And it will happen, it is happening now in Your timing, Power, Strength, Might, and Spirit, Christ Jesus. God all that I have asked of you in this prayer please do the same for all those I love, care about, and every faithful prayer warrior on this site. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You Lord Jesus, my Savior and Lord for answering this prayer with a Yes and Amen.
Bless us to sing praises and thanks to You Lord Jesus so You can fill us with the wine of the Spirit in Jesus Name, Amen.
