Proverbs 3:5–6 — Early Morning Prayer for Purpose, Calling, and Divine Direction

5 A.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to Seoul, from Seoul to Nairobi, from Nairobi to New York — as dawn breaks, the world begins again under the guidance of God.

Scripture (NIV)

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” — Proverbs 3:5–6 (NIV)

Show Notes

Morning brings both opportunity and uncertainty. “Prayer for guidance and purpose” is one of the world’s most-searched faith requests, revealing how deeply people long to know God’s plan. Proverbs 3:5–6 calls us not to predict the future but to trust the One who holds it.

From London to Seoul, Nairobi to New York, believers are learning that surrender is the shortest path to clarity. When we lean on our own logic, we circle confusion; when we trust the Lord, He straightens the road. Your direction is not lost — it’s waiting in obedience.

This morning we pray for clear purpose, wise decisions, and divine alignment. As the world awakens, let God lead every step, turn every detour into discipleship, and make every calling count for His kingdom.

Please hit us up today in the studio. May God bless you. We're in Proverbs chapter 3, verses 5 through to 6. This is an early prayer. This is a moment for us to rise. Do you realize we are praying for purpose, calling divine direction? Father, we need divine direction. And right now, Lord, Father, we pray for wherever the listeners are scattered across the globe, that we will trust in our Lord with all of our heart and lean not on our own understanding. Lord, and we will submit everything to you and you will make our path straight. Lord, we gotta we gotta walk the narrow path. Lord, we gotta walk, Lord, through the door. Lord, we gotta get to the good shepherd. And wherever we are at this moment, Father, we thank you that the word brings hope, the word brings life, the word brings power and authority. And right now we pray, as heaven is moving, Lord, we pray that you will unzip the heavens and angels will come through at the name of Jesus and they will carry us, they will guide us, they will protect us. Father, but we need purpose. Lord, we gotta understand what this purpose of this life is because Lord, we're getting caught on social media, we're getting caught on the gadgets, Father, we're getting caught in business, we're getting caught in the way of the world, Father. We're getting caught on gaming, we're getting caught, dear God, on scrolling, just wasting hours and hours and hours of our lives. Lord, and social media doesn't give us a purpose. Father, we pray that we will not be addicted to social media, but we will know our Redeemer lives, and because he lives, we can face tomorrow. And Lord, I thank you that we have a purpose, and that purpose is to share the gospel of Jesus Christ. And we are not, dear God, according to Proverbs 3, verses 5 through to 6. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding in all your ways, submit to him, and he will make your path straight. Father, we pray that you will make all of our paths straight because we need guidance and purpose. Lord, in this world that is crashing, in this world that is chaotic. Father, we need to find our purpose. And the purpose is, dear God, unto salvation. And as we call on you right now, we pray, dear God, that the love of Jesus, the power of the Holy Spirit, wherever we are across the world, from London, dear God, to New York, Father, from New York to Japan, all my God, we pray that you will bless the world and this nation and the spirit of the living God will move right away through Australia, the Balaric Islands. Father, pour out your spirit. Lord, we need direction right now in Western Samoa. Father, Lord, we pray that you will touch the islands around the world, the Philippines, dear God, the Netherlands. Lord, come, Holy Spirit, right now, Detroit, New York, Spirit of the Living God. We need, dear God, to follow you, Lord. We got to be living in the Word of God and we wanna make this life purposeful. We want to follow Jesus Christ because, Lord, we're tired of following materialism. We're tired, dear God, of following the world. We need to follow Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. So, Father, open our eyes so that we can see the glory. Open our eyes so that we can see the kingdom. Lord, give us clarity in making decisions. Father, give us purpose and calling stronger. Father, remove the social media. Lord, remove all that stuff where we have addictions to social media, gambling, watching the telly, football, sports. Remove all those addictions and Father, bring the word of God to our heart today. Spirit of the living God, Father, we need the word of God in our lives. And Lord, we are about to crash. We're about to roll over. Lord, we need the word of God, and we need you to show up now in the name of Jesus. Give us clarity, dear God. Give us a firm foundation. Put our feet upon the rock. Lord, I trust in the Lord with all my heart. You direct my steps and make my path straight. You are the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And I want to make this a call to action now. And I want to share this prayer with someone that is seeking direction today. Lord, put someone in our path that needs Jesus, that needs direction. Spiritual direction. Come, Lord. Holy Spirit, thank you for the listeners and the brothers and the sisters wherever they are across the world. May our God be with you in the name of Jesus. Until tomorrow.
