As Christians, our overall direction in life is determined by our commitment to God, and we must remember to ask Him to direct our life in everything we do. 

When we are unsure of God’s will for our life we should pray and meditate on His word because His Word reveals and teaches us how to ask: 

“Show me the way I should go, for to You I lift up my soul” (Psalm 143:8). 

“Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.” (Psalm 25:5). 

“Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path” (Psalm 119:105). 

“If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him” (James 1:5). 

“Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him” (Psalm 37:7). 

If I obey you Lord “The Spirit of truth will guide me into all truth” (John 16:13). 

If I am making a wrong decision Lord please let your Holy Spirit agitate my conscience and if I am leaning towards the right decision give me peace and encourage me to proceed according to Your will because “You my Lord will guide me always” (Isaiah 58:11). 

Lord, if You are calling me to take a leap of faith, encourage me with Your presence for Your word says that: “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9). 

And please help me to remember to, “cast all my anxiety on You because You care for me” (1 Peter 5:7). 

I need to “Trust in you dear Lord with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding, and in all my ways acknowledge You, and You will direct my paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6). 

If (state your request) is what You have in mind for me to do, than please give me the peace that transcends all understanding and open up the way; and if not, show me another direction that You already have in mind for me because, I will trust in the Lord everything I do, so that my plans will be successful (Proverbs 16:3). 

So while you might be unsure of what you are supposed to do in certain areas of your life, you must remember that as a Christian you are called to glorify God, to love God, to love people, and to advance his Kingdom by spreading the gospel in both word and deed. 

So when you don’t know what to do, remember to always glorify God, because that is our ultimate purpose as Christians. 

And finally thank Him for guiding you and for showing you the way you should go.
