FRUITFUL & FULFILLED An Abundant Life Self-Assessmentنمونه

2. P – Pray for Guidance and Discernment

“Prayer is not preparation for the battle. Prayer IS the battle.” —Oswald Chambers

With an eye on the prize of living a fruitful and fulfilled life in the Lord, let’s turn our attention to unpacking the P.L.A.N. acronym. First, “P” is an encouragement to pray for guidance and discernment. 

Whether or not we realize it, sometimes we turn to prayer only as a last resort. “Prayer? Has it come to that?” 

Yes, in prayer we gain God’s wisdom. Early church leader James put it this way, “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him” (James 1:5). 

As you prayerfully consider the following verses, ask God for divine direction.
