Heavenly Father,

Lord, I seek your wisdom in every aspect of my life. Grant me the discernment to make decisions that align with your will and honor your name. I confess my limited understanding and my need for your guidance.

I pray for a wisdom that is pure, peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy, and good fruit (James 3:17). Let your wisdom guide my thoughts, words, and actions, and may it bear fruit that reflects your character.

Lord Jesus, you are the embodiment of wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:24). I ask for the mind of Christ, that I may see situations and people through your eyes and respond with love, grace, and understanding.

In the name of Jesus, I pray.

Amen.
