Prayer for Clarity of Purpose & Direction

Praise the Lord! How pleasant and fitting to praise him! He determines the number of the stars and calls them each by name. Great is our Lord and abundant in power; his understanding has no limit.  Even before I speak a word, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether. You are God, and there is none like you; when you act, who can reverse it? You make known the end from the beginning, and you proclaim in advance things not yet done. Your purpose will stand, and you will do what you please. 

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that my life is not my own. I am your handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, and apart from you, I have no good thing. I know that I wasn’t saved by accident. You chose me before the foundation of the world to be your child and do your work in the earth. I acknowledge that in you I live, move, and have my existence. I live to bring glory to your name. I echo the words of  Apostle Paul that my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it to finish the work assigned to me.

Adonai, I don’t want to live my life without a clear vision from you. I pray that you reveal my purpose in your Kingdom, my spiritual gift/s, and my assignment in this season. I want to be used by you, oh God. I want to fulfill all that you have called me to do; I want to leave no stone unturned in my lifetime. I want it to be said of me like King David that after he served God’s purpose in his generation, then he died. Lord, I pray for clear direction in all areas of my life. I pray for clear Instructions just as you gave to Moses to build the tabernacle. I want to know your will for me in my education, career, business, relationships, and all personal affairs. I pray for wisdom to make decisions that align with my purpose. I pray that my destiny helpers will locate me in this season. I pray that like Moses, I will connect with my Aaron, like Esther, I will connect with my Mordecai, and like David, I will connect with my Jonathan. Order my steps, oh God, according to your will.

Lord, I lay my will aside and submit to your plans for my life. For many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails. I surrender my entire self to you with confident trust in your wisdom. I pray that you remove the people and habits from my life that are blocking your purpose in me. I pray against every Sanballat and Tobiah who have come to distract, discourage, and frustrate me. I demolish every plan of the enemy, trying to prevent me from fulfilling my purpose. I affirm that nothing can thwart your plans for my life.

Father, I commit every area of my life to your good pleasure. I ask all these things in the name of Jesus Christ, the Wonderful Counselor. Amen
