We are living in the latter days where we are seeing an escalation in wars, the rise in unknown diseases, disasters, and deceptions we need to ask the Lord for wisdom and understanding so that we will not be deceived.

So, today we will pray that God will give us the wisdom to help us navigate during these trying times.

Our prayer is taken directly from the Word of God.

Let us pray

 I pray to you our heavenly Father that you will fill us with the knowledge of your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; so that we may walk worthy, fully pleasing you, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in knowledge.

Strengthen us with power according to your glorious power. Help us to be joyful,  patient and longsuffering; always giving thanks to you, the Father, who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.

You have delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of your love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.

For Jesus Christ is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers.

All things were created through Him and for Him. And He is before all things, and in Him, all things consist. And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence.

For it pleased the Father that in Him all the fullness should dwell, and by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him, whether things on earth or things in heaven, having made peace through the blood of His cross.

Once we were alienated by wicked works but we are now reconciled in the body of His flesh through death, to present us holy, and blameless, and above reproach in His sight – if indeed we continue in the faith, grounded and steadfast, and are not moved away from the hope of the gospel which we heard, which was preached to every creature under heaven. (Colossians 1:9-23)

I pray that our hearts will be encouraged, being knit together in love. I pray that we will have complete confidence in understanding God’s mysterious plan, which is Christ himself. In Him lie hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

As we, therefore, have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as we have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.

We will not be cheated through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ.

For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily; and we are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

Now to Him who is able to keep us from stumbling, and to present us faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to God our Savior, who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever.
Amen!

(Prayer based upon Colossians 1:9-23; 2:2-3, 6-10; Jude 1:24-25)

If you pray this prayer in faith the Lord has heard and has empowered you with wisdom and knowledge.

Therefore, walk in victory.
