Ether 2

The brother of Jared prayed unto God saying that he had done everything He had commanded him, but will they have light in their barges? (22).

You need to be obedient to what God has already commanded you to do. While doing that, pray. Ask for help. Ask for guidance. While waiting for an answer, try to work it out. God has blessed every individual with a mind and agency. Then when we make a decision we can go to God in faith and ask him if it is right and if he will help.

Russell M. Nelson said:
"Often I have heard [Gordon B. Hinckley] say, 'I don’t know how to get anything done except getting on my knees and pleading for help and then getting on my feet and going to work'" ("Spiritual Capacity").
