Discerning God’s Will Through Prayer

Discerning God’s Will Through Prayer

Did you know that the Bible provides a prayer that helps us discern God’s will? If you’re like me, you want God’s best in every way. You don’t want to be outside of God’s will ever—not only in the larger sense of our life calling, but even in the smaller sense of our routine decisions. This is why I love Paul’s prayer in Colossians chapter 1. The apostle prays that the church in Colosse would be filled with the knowledge of God’s will, wisdom and spiritual understanding. Consider taking a moment today to make this prayer your own. God is a good Father, and faithful to answer our prayers. He wants the best for us, and will reveal some of His plans and purposes as we talk to Him. Now that’s something to pray about!
