Romans 8:26-28
Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

In those moments of seeming confusion and frustration, always remember that God by His Spirit will help you to pray and cause all things to work together for your good. Ephesians 1:11 reveals that God in His sovereignty always works out all things after the counsel of His own will. God's will is good, it is pleasing and it is perfect. It consistently exceeds that which you can think, ask or imagine, Eph.3:20. When one way or plan does not seem to be working, do not give up; it is probably because God has a better way and plan for you. You may be taken unawares by certain circumstances, but God is never caught unawares. He is God and He always causes all things to work together for your good because you love Him and want to do His will.
The fact that you can't see or predict how a situation will work out does not mean that God does not have a better plan. Child of God, you cannot be stranded. When you are in God's will and loving Him, you are unstoppable. Every attempt to stop you will only result in a hastening and better outcome of His will for your life. In all things, give thanks and continue working in love. Do not allow bitterness to take root in your heart. Rather, keep your eyes on God's grace. Keep trusting Him and doing what is right. As your ways continue to please God, He will cause all things to work together for your good, Prov.16:7. God reigns in the affairs of men, Dan.4:17. The hearts of kings are in His hand and He can turn them in any direction He pleases, Prov.21:1.
PRAYER FOCUS: Rejoice and pray in the Spirit right now concerning issues on your heart. Allow the Spirit to strengthen and direct you.
