We all have to make decisions every day of our lives. And we must constantly make sure that the decisions we make are always God's Will and not ours.

 

God is very interested in our choices. That is why He not only wants us to make the right decisions, but He also wants to guide us in making those decisions. Indeed, God knows the desires of our heart, but above all, He knows what is best for us and He plans to reveal it to us and show us what we should do. Therefore, to be successful in making good decisions every day of our lives, we need to clearly understand what the Bible teaches us about God's ways and pray for guidance in making decisions by asking for the wisdom of the Holy Spirit.

Making a decision can be very stressful. Indeed, we are often confronted with situations that require us to make important decisions that when taken wrongly can greatly affect us. Unfortunately, we sometimes make the mistake of dismissing prayer and not trusting God for guidance in making decisions.

In this sense, the apostle Paul encourages us in Philippians 4:6-7 by saying: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Having the right guidance in life requires abiding by the Lord’s will and having His discernment in your life. These prayers for guidance in your decision-making will offer you the encouragement and focus you need.

 

 

 

 

1. Wisdom Prayer

Father God, Your word says that if anyone lacks wisdom, they should ask, and You will give them generously. I am about to make a huge decision in my life, but I don’t know how to go about it, Father God. I come to You today to ask You for wisdom. Lead me in the way that I should go that I may be able to bring glory to Your holy name. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

 

 

2. Prayer for Grace for Every Decision I Make

Gracious Father, I am dealing with a very complex situation right now. I need Grace during this time so that I can do the right thing. Let Your Grace be upon me so that I may find favor with the right people. Father, do not let me be ashamed for those who oppose me are waiting for me to stumble and fall. Give me a clear vision of where to go and how to get there. Let Your grace help me to rely on You fully for the glory of Your holy name. In Jesus’ name, I believe and pray. Amen.

 

 

3. Patience Prayer

Heavenly Father, remove anything in me that will cause me to make rash decisions. Give me the patience to handle big and small decisions in different areas of my life. Fill me with divine strength that I may always follow Your leading. May I take the path You are showing me even if it seems long. Lord, slow me down when I rush and teach me how to make decisions calmly. In Jesus’ name, I pray and believe. Amen.

 

 

4. Prayer for Peace

Father, I pray for peace upon my heart today, the peace of mind that will last eternally – a peace that only You can provide. Oh Lord, strengthen and give me Your peace that will wash out my restlessness, anxiety, and uneasiness. Give me victory, Lord, from the enemy bringing confusion and worry into my mind. Oh Lord, fill me with Your peace that will be the conviction in any decision I make. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

 

 

5. Prayer for Wisdom – Ask Holy Spirit for Wisdom

Holy Spirit, fill me with the wisdom I need to succeed in my life decisions. Please help me with your wisdom daily as I battle tough decisions in my career, marriage, business, finances, academics, and ministry. Teach me, Lord, not to depend wholly on my thoughts and opinions. I need Your wisdom to do the right thing at the right time. Oh Lord, help me with the wisdom to choose rightly – and to choose the right way. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray. Amen.

 

 

6. Peace of Mind Prayer

Lord Jesus, I am in despair. Everyone is looking at me to make the final decision. My heart is full of fear. But we walk by faith and not sight, that is why today I am asking You to remove every doubt that is in my heart and replace it with peace. I refuse to let my heart be troubled or afraid. I know that you are with me till the end of time. Today I choose to walk in the same peace that Jesus has. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

 

 

7. Overcoming Fear and Anxiety Prayer

Dear Lord, my heart is full of anxiety. I don’t know how to go about this issue. The decision I make today is going to affect my family and friends. I am scared of failing and shaming my loved ones. But your word says that you have not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and sound mind. Let Your word come alive in me. Let me be filled with love and power so that I can make decisions that glorify You. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

 

 

8. Discernment Prayer

Lord of heaven and earth, so many things await me once I take this step. But I cannot make this decision without You. You are the only one who knows how this decision will affect me. I come to You today asking You to help me make sound decisions. Lord, help me be a better judge in every situation that I face. Open my spiritual eyes so that I can see who and what I am dealing with. In Jesus’ name, I believe, and pray. Amen.

 

 

9. Prayer for God’s Will

Oh Lord, my Father, forgive me of the sinfulness and selfishness of always allowing my will to prevail over Your will in every one of my actions. Help me, Lord, honestly believe and trust You as the only good and caring God who always desires the best for me. Let Your will be done in my life daily, as I obey Your word entirely. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

 

 

10. Prayer for a humble spirit

Lord, today I pray for a humble spirit to depend on You in my life decisions. You promised me in Your word that You will lead the humble in what is right and teach the humble his way. Father, I decrease that You might increase in me. Grant me Your guidance, which grants me the humble obedience to accept it in Jesus’ name. Amen.

 

 

11. Past Disappointments Prayer

O Lord, there are decisions I have made in the past that have left me hurt, broken, and insecure. Now I have to make another decision, but the past keeps flooding my heart, and it is making me second guess myself. Lord, take control of my mind. Help me to focus on Your leading and not my past failures. In Jesus’ name, I believe and pray. Amen.

 

 

12. Prayer for When Feeling Uncertain about Your Decision

Almighty God, You are the great I am, nothing is too difficult for You. Father, I am currently facing a difficult time, I need to make a major decision in my life, but I don’t know how to go about it. Uncertainty has clouded my mind, and I feel like I am drifting away. Lord, remove hesitation from my heart so that I can be able to make the right decisions. Fill me up so that I may follow Your guidance without any fear or doubt in Jesus’ name. Amen.

 

 

13. Your Will, Not Mine Prayer

Loving Father, only You know my end from the beginning. Nothing I do or say catches You by surprise. You know what is in my heart, good or bad. Everyone around me is choosing to do things their way, and it is very tempting for me to do so too. But Father God, I want Your will to be done in my life. If it is not your will for me to take this path, then Father, give me divine strength to accept and to follow Your lead. May every decision I make be pleasing to You. In Jesus’ name, I believe and pray. Amen.

 

 

14. Short Prayer for Discernment

Oh Lord, open my eyes to see anything hindering me from attaining spiritual progress. Then, please help me to make bold decisions as I discern the next steps I need to take in my life. Amen.

 

 

15. Prayer for His instruction

Lord, Guide me to the right decision. Instruct me not to necessarily choose what I want to do but what You want me to do. Help and guide me so I will not be strayed while making life decisions. Holy Spirit, teach me Your word in Jesus’ name. Amen.

 

 

16. Prayer for Protection from Wrong Influences

Heavenly Father, You are my refuge and hiding place that is why I am here asking You to protect me against the lies of the enemy. Shield me from weapons that have forged against me to prevent me from making decisions that are within Your will. Reveal to me the people that the enemy is using to lead me astray and help me to cut them off from my life. I cover my mind, body, and spirit with the blood of Jesus. In Jesus’ name, I believe and pray. Amen.

 

 

17. Obedience Prayer

Holy Lord, your word says obedience is better than sacrifice. Father, help me to walk in obedience as I make decisions about my life, family, and career. Let those decisions align with your word. Show me the path You have set for me and how to walk in it. Where I have been walking in disobedience, Father, forgive me. Let Your Holy Spirit guide me in everything that I do so that I may not go against Your word. Humble my heart so that I may be flexible. It is in Jesus’ name, I believe and pray. Amen.

to God

To God, the being above all, nothing is impossible. Everything is possible with him. Whatever difficulties you find yourself in, trust in him, have faith. Pray to him and he will answer you.

Prayers addressed directly to God do not go through any intermediary. He receives them as they are. Some people prefer this type of prayer where they speak, in their hearts, directly to God.

 

 

 

God is present everywhere. Within us and without us. Even when we think we are alone, he is there. He sees us, he listens to us. He knows us better than we know ourselves.

Like a good father with his children, he is compassionate, merciful and always ready to forgive us our failings and sins.

Let us entrust ourselves to him, ask him for the grace to be a reflection of his love for mankind. Let us entrust ourselves to him and be attentive to the different signs and messages that he sends us every day, within us or outside us through our fellow human beings.

Wellness

Well-being is what every human being naturally aspires to. The satisfaction of achieving the level of physical, psychological, social and spiritual balance that allows us to live a happy and fulfilling life is a permanent quest.

 

 

There are many obstacles to achieving well-being. Poverty, which prevents us from having our daily bread or a healthy diet, lack of regular physical activity, stress due to the vagaries of life, poor hygiene and tumultuous social relationships are all factors that hinder well-being.

To achieve and maintain permanent well-being, it is important to find a balance between work, rest and entertainment, and to engage in regular activities that involve well-being and personal development. 

Spirituality is also a very important way to help achieve and maintain permanent well-being. That is why we offer prayers on this subject to help you achieve permanent well-being.

difficult causes

Prayers for difficult causes are effective for complicated, desperate or difficult cases. Situations where all seems lost.

If you are going through complicated times, if you think you have already tried everything and your situation does not change, if everything seems to be going against you, try prayers for difficult cases. Pray with faith and fervour.

 

 

 

These prayers are usually attributed to certain saints whose intercession is infallible with God the Father or His Son Jesus Christ.

Whether it is under the intercession of St. Rita, St. Joseph, St. Anne, Padre Pio or other saints, testimonies are pouring in from people all over the world who have experienced the power of God through these prayers for difficult causes.

If you are living in difficult situations, if you have problems that you think are hopeless, if you are in despair over the unpredictable events of life, if you have searched for a long time but have not found what you were looking for, if you have lost the taste for life, try these prayers for difficult causes.

Jesus

Jesus Christ is a central figure in Christianity. He is regarded as the incarnation of God. 

The historical existence of Jesus is attested by archaeological research and by the accounts of Roman historians (Flavius Josephus, Tacitus, Suetonius).

 

 

At about the age of thirty, Jesus left Nazareth and began an itinerant public life. He calls his disciples and walks with them through Judea and Galilee. He teaches, he heals the sick, casts out demons, walks on water, forgives sins, raises the dead. He is attentive to children. He shares meals, a wedding party, pilgrimages to Jerusalem. He lives as a Jewish believer, goes to the synagogue, observes the Sabbath. He weeps, gets angry, experiences sadness, fatigue and thirst, compassion and even anguish. Jesus is known for his natural authority.

With all the miracles he performed, Jesus is the one to whom prayers should be addressed no matter what difficulties one faces.

Protection

Protective prayers are prayers that aim to protect from the action of the forces of evil, as the name suggests. The minions of the evil one and all their spawn spend all their time attacking the children of God. By praying regularly for divine protection, you place yourself under the protection of the Most High, the One who is above all, the One before whom every knee bends. Thus, by praying the prayers of protection, God annihilates for you, in one way or another, all the attacks of malevolent forces.

 

 

By using God's power to protect you, you can embark on your endeavours with confidence that you will succeed, because God will deal with the negative forces that would try to harm you.

We all know the adage that says "the enemy never sleeps". touteslesprieres.com gathers through the keyword protection, all the prayers of protection which can be useful for you for this or that situation of the life.

With these prayers, have recourse with assurance to the protection of the Almighty who will strike down all entities that would try to obstruct your projects and your undertakings.

Resisting temptation

The road to God is far from being a long, quiet river. It is strewn with all kinds of pitfalls, including temptations. All those who are spiritually inclined know something about this.

Every day, the attacks of the evil one, who acts through thoughts or our fellow men, are without respite. Awake or asleep, temptations come from all sides. Fortunately, prayer is a powerful weapon through which God acts in our lives, to prevent us from succumbing to the traps of the evil one and his minions.

 

It sometimes happens that we fall, that we succumb to temptations, but the essential thing is to get up again and to take steps to avoid falling victim to them.

 

We offer you prayers to help you in your fight against the forces of evil that want and seek the downfall of mankind, through the keyword "RESIST THE TENTATIONS". With these prayers, arm yourself to resist the many temptations that stand in your way, the way of salvation, the way that leads to God.

Success

We all seek success in everything we do. Whether it is in our studies, our career, our relationships with others or life in society in general, success is for many the key to happiness. The road to success has never been without obstacles, pitfalls and difficulties.

 

 

The obstacles that can stand between us and success can be diverse. They may be natural or they may emanate from the malicious will of some equally malicious individual.

It is therefore important for believers to implore, to seek divine help in order to counteract the action of malevolent forces that would try to prevent the attainment of the goals of success.

Excel in your efforts, but first pray for the support of the Most High who always accompanies any success.

Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost is the third person of the Trinity. His action is in perfect unity with the Father (GOD) and the Son (Jesus Christ). When we are in a state where we deserve to receive Him, He enlightens us, guides us, protects us from all dangers (spiritual and physical).


 

 

In the Bible, several symbols are used to designate the Holy Spirit: breath that makes you breathe; wind that pushes you out; oil that gives strength to athletes; fire that warms and purifies; dove that descends from heaven.

 

We can pray to the Holy Spirit to implore his gifts which are :

  • Wisdom: it makes us taste the presence of God, in a greater companionship with him, and a greater missionary dynamism. It is the contemplative gift par excellence.
  • Intelligence: it helps us to enter into the mystery of God, to understand the faith and the Scriptures from within, and to distinguish error from truth. Through this gift, every Christian can become an authentic theologian.
  • Science: it allows us to recognise God at work in nature and in history, to receive the world as a gift from God. It gives a sense of the precariousness of the universe.
  • Strength: it gives perseverance in times of trial, the courage to bear witness. It supports the martyrs, but also helps in the day-to-day fulfilment of one's duties as a state and in the spiritual struggle. It is the heroism of lowliness.
  • Counsel: this is the gift of spiritual discernment. It adjusts what to do or avoid, to say or not to say. It enables us to see clearly in ourselves and in others.
  • Piety: it allows us to experience God's fatherhood, his closeness, his tenderness. It gives us the confidence of a child. It also brings us close to others.
  • Fear: this is not the fear of God but the sense of his greatness. Awareness of the infinite distance between the Almighty and us, his creatures. This gift gives rise to an attitude of humility and wonder.
