Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from Radical.net.

Is he inquires of the Lord?

God shall I do this? Where do I go? What do I do?

He is from the beginning here seeking God for direction, for wisdom, for help, for guidance.

He's not doing anything apart from the direction and guidance of God. Now obviously,

for anybody who knows the way David's life unfolds, if he had just done this at every moment,

then so much of his story would be different. But isn't that true not just for David's life,

but for our own lives? What would be different if we paused before making major decisions?

And even minor decisions, and we, I just think about the book of Nehemiah,

when Nehemiah is constantly looking up to God and praying for direction and for guidance in this

way or that way. And then the New Testament with the Holy Spirit of God in us, given to us to lead us

and guide us so for you and I to live today and tomorrow, constantly looking to God.

praying continually like the Bible calls us to do, asking for direction and everything we do.

Not being quick to do this or that before looking to God and asking for his direction, his guidance,

his wisdom, his help. Oh God, we pray that you would help us to inquire of you constantly,

continually, all the time. God today, give us in our minds and our hearts a constant God,

consciousness, a consciousness of you and your spirit in us. Lord, we want to follow you today.

We don't want to send today, keep us from temptation. Jesus, you taught us to pray. Lord,

you just lead us not into temptation. Oh God, but deliver us from evil and we pray for your wisdom

and every decision we make, we are so prone to foolish decisions. We are so prone to do what we think

is best instead of walking according to your word and doing what you say is best. So God, help us

we pray to walk with you, to do according to your word, to follow the leadership of your spirit.
