A Prayer for Discovering God's Purpose
Share
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You with a humble heart, seeking to understand Your purpose for my life. I desire to live a life that honors You and fulfills Your plans for me. Guide me, O Lord, as I seek to discover Your will for my life. In Psalm 138:8, You promise to fulfill Your purpose for me. I trust in Your sovereignty and wisdom, knowing that You have a unique plan for my life.
Grant me wisdom, discernment, and clarity as I seek to understand Your purpose. Help me to identify my gifts, talents, and passions, and align them with Your will. May I be patient, persistent, and faithful in seeking Your guidance. I pray that Your purpose for my life would be revealed to me, and that I would be empowered to live out Your plan with confidence, joy, and fruitfulness.
