How to Pray for God’s Direction When You Don’t Know Where to Go (Psalm 25)
Show Me the Right Path, Lord. When life feels uncertain, it can be hard to know what to pray. Psalm 25 gives us a biblical prayer pattern for seeking God’s direction when the path ahead is unclear. In this message, Pastor Chris Teien walks through David’s heartfelt words—showing us how to trust God’s leadership, seek His truth, rest in His mercy, live with humility, and wait with integrity.

Key Points:
- Trust God When You Don’t Know What to Do (vv. 1–3) – Begin with confidence in God’s character before you know the outcome.
- Seek God’s Truth to Guide Your Steps (vv. 4–5) – Let His Word and Spirit set the course instead of relying solely on your own reasoning.
- Remember God’s Mercy More Than Your Mistakes (vv. 6–11) – Don’t let shame hold you back; God’s mercy is greater than your past.
- Walk Humbly in the Fear of the Lord (vv. 12–15) – Humility and reverence for God lead to wisdom and blessing.
- Call on God and Wait with Integrity (vv. 16–22) – Trust His timing and stay faithful in the waiting.
Personal Stories from Pastor Chris:
Pastor Chris shares a youth ministry game that illustrates God’s step-by-step leading, a dense fog driving experience that mirrors life’s uncertainty, and a personal lesson about not letting past mistakes define you.
Notable Quotes:

- “God’s mercy is greater than all of your sin.”
- “Waiting on God is not wasted time; it’s where He shapes your character.”
- “Sometimes God’s plan isn’t for you to move or change careers—it’s for you to be faithful right where you are and bloom where He has planted you.”
Actionable Takeaways:

- Apply: Spend time in Scripture daily to keep your steps aligned with His truth.
