A Prayer for Wisdom

The decision in front of you is heavy — but you don't have to make it alone.

God, I need wisdom that goes beyond my own understanding. The stakes are high and I can't afford to get this wrong. Filter my emotions and sharpen my discernment. Show me what I'm not seeing. Speak through trusted people around me. I'm listening for Your voice.

Wisdom isn't about being smart — it's about being still enough to hear God speak. Amen.

When to pray this

Wisdom is not the same as information. It is knowing what to do with what you already know — including when to say nothing and when to wait. Ask for it before the decision, not after.
