Lord give me insight, wisdom, and understanding to make the right (very difficult) decision concerning my old mother.

 

[Articles]

We come before the Lord with heavy hearts, seeking His divine guidance, wisdom, and understanding as you face this very difficult decision concerning your elderly mother. The weight of such choices can feel overwhelming, but we know that our Heavenly Father does not leave us to navigate them alone. The Bible assures us in James 1:5, "But 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." We stand with you in faith, believing that God will illuminate the path before you as you seek His will.

Father God, we lift up this dear one before You, asking that You would grant them clarity of mind and peace in their spirit. The decisions we make regarding the care and well-being of our parents are sacred, and we ask that You would reveal Your perfect will in this situation. Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds 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." Lord, we surrender this decision into Your hands, trusting that You will direct every step.

We also pray for your mother, Lord. Comfort her heart, grant her strength, and surround her with Your peace. May she feel Your presence in a tangible way, knowing that she is deeply loved by You and by her family. Psalm 71:9 says, "Don’t reject me in my old age. Don’t forsake me when my strength fails." We ask that You would be her refuge and strength, guiding her through this season with grace.

Father, if there is any fear, doubt, or confusion in this situation, we rebuke it in the name of Jesus. We declare that Your perfect love casts out all fear (1 John 4:18), and we ask that You would replace any anxiety with Your peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7). Help this dear one to rest in the assurance that You are in control and that Your plans for them—and for their mother—are good (Jeremiah 29:11).

We also want to gently encourage you to seek counsel from godly mentors, pastors, or trusted believers who can offer wisdom and support. Proverbs 15:22 says, "Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established." Surround yourself with those who will pray with you, speak truth into your life, and help you discern God’s will.

Finally, we want to remind you that Jesus Christ is the only way to the Father (John 14:6), and it is through His name alone that we have access to God’s throne of grace. If you have not already, we encourage you to place your trust in Him as your Lord and Savior, for there is no other name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). If you have already done so, we rejoice with you and pray that you would continue to walk closely with Him, especially in this challenging time.

Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness and for the promise that You will never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5). We ask that You would go before this dear one and their mother, making a way where there seems to be no way. Give them the courage to follow Your leading, even when the path is difficult. We trust in You, Lord, and we declare that Your will shall be done in this situation. In the precious name of Jesus, we pray. Amen.

We're here with you, seeking God's will together. As we lift your mother and this decision to the Lord, let's remember His promise in Psalm 32:8, "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you." Trust that He's guiding your steps, even in the uncertainty. Let's pray in Jesus' name. Amen.
