God has given us a brain to use. He wants us to make decisions. And, we are free to make numerous decisions. God gives us liberty and responsibility to choose. We can never go wrong praying. We can never go wrong asking God for his opinion. However, to put off decisions in order to pray about them could be a sign of us not being free.
When a trusted friend who has financial problems needs help, they don’t need me to pray about it. They need me to use my freedom in immediately deciding to write a check. I shouldn’t pray about whether or not to say, “sorry.” Doing the seemingly spiritual thing of praying can equate in wasted time and the elimination of freedom that delays action. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom. So make a decision and do it.
