Prayer based on Proverbs 16:25. Themes: Deception, Consequences, Wisdom

Dear God, please help me to recognize that my own understanding and ways may not always be aligned with your will. Guide me towards the path that leads to life and away from the one that leads to death. Give me the wisdom to discern what is right and the courage to follow it, even when it may be difficult. Thank you for your constant love and guidance. Amen.

Verse: There is a way which seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death.
Proverbs 16:25

This is a Command. The verse is warning the reader to not trust their own understanding and to seek guidance from God, as following one’s own way can lead to destruction.
