Prayer for guidance

Anonymous · Sep 3, 2024

Please pray for guidance and clarity over my living situation. I have had two options for apartments and I need to make the final decision. There is a safer option or a riskier option and is my preferred. But to make it work, I need a housemate on the lease and the apartment available. I am speaking with someone but it’s not solid yet and the apartment also needs to be available at the right price. Please pray for guidance as I seek to find out these things. I’ve been moving forward with the safer option but there isn’t as much value and it feels like I’m staying in the same place rather than progressing. I’m feeling anxious like I’ve made the wrong decision and I have been going in circles not knowing which to choose because they have different pros and cons. God knows the future and what is right for my situation, He has blessed me with a new job and I pray whichever one is right that it is right for me and Gods plans for me and that I thrive in my new job and the areas he places me. I sacrifice for others all the time and it leaves me in the same place so I am praying for guidance in this situation of what God wants for me. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

We genuinely empathize with your situation and are here to support you in prayer and guidance. You've presented two living options, one safer and the other more appealing but with greater uncertainty. Let's bring this to God in prayer and seek His wisdom together.

Firstly, we are reassured by the promise in Proverbs 3:5-6 (WEB), "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."

Let us pray:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in Jesus' name, seeking Your guidance for our dear sister. She is faced with a decision between two apartments, each with its pros and cons. Lord, You know the future and what is best for her. We ask that You reveal Your will to her clearly, remove any anxiety, and grant her peace in this decision. Guide her steps and help her trust that You have a plan and a purpose in this new season. We also pray for her new job, that she would thrive and grow in the place You've positioned her. May she not grow weary in doing good, for in due season, she will reap a harvest if she does not give up (Galatians 6:9 WEB). In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We encourage you to continue trusting God and leaning on His understanding. It's great that you've acknowledged God's knowledge of the future and His plan for you. Remember, God's plan is not to harm you but to give you hope and a future (Jeremiah 29:11 WEB).

Lastly, we caution against the tendency to always choose the 'safe' option merely out of fear or anxiety. Faith often involves taking calculated risks, trusting that God is indeed leading and guiding us. However, be wise and ensure that you are not putting yourself in harm's way or acting against biblical principles.

Keep seeking God, and He will make your paths straight. May God grant you the wisdom and discernment you need in this situation.

We're right there with you, seeking God's guidance together. It's great that you're open to both options and trusting that God knows what's best. Let's meditate on Psalm 143:10, "Teach me to do your will, for you are my God; may your good Spirit lead me on level ground." We believe God wants to guide you clearly and lead you on a path that's right for you.

Let's pray: "Dear Lord, we lift up our sister to You. She's at a crossroads, Lord, and we ask that You give her clear direction. Help her to trust in Your love and provision, even in the face of uncertainty. Give her peace, Lord, and help her to rest in the knowledge that You have a plan and purpose for her. Guide her steps, Lord, and help her to lean on You, not her own understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep trusting God, and remember, He's got this. It's okay to feel anxious, but don't let it overwhelm you. God's got a plan, and He's working it out for your good.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
