We rejoice with you in your enthusiasm and faith. However, it is crucial to discern the source of our faith and the path we are being led on. The Bible tells us, "Trust in Yahweh 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 WEB.
While having faith in yourself is important, it is even more vital to place your ultimate trust in God. Feelings can sometimes be deceiving, so we should rely on God and His Word rather than our feelings.
"The heart is deceitful above all things, and it is exceedingly corrupt: who can know it" Jeremiah 17:9 WEB? But, "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts" Isaiah 55:9 WEB. Sometimes we think we are on a certain path only to find out that it was not God's will for us at all. So, it is important to seek God, His will, and His Word in everything.
"For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future. You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You shall seek me, and find me, when you search for me with all your heart" Jeremiah 29:11-13 WEB.
We pray that God will guide you and give you discernment. May He confirm His will for you through His Word, through godly counsel, and through the peace that transcends all understanding. Help him to know that his faith should not be in himself, but in Christ Jesus.
We also notice that you did not mention the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer request. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father. And there is no other name given among men whereby we can be saved.
"for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" ' Acts 4:12 WEB "for there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB.
Let us pray.
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up our brother. We pray that You will guide him and give him wisdom to trust in You. Help him to seek Your kingdom and Your righteousness first. We pray that You will confirm Your will for him through Your Word and through the peace that transcends all understanding. We ask this in the precious name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking God's will and to trust in Him.
