Today God wants you to go to a new dimension in your faith walk.
Scriptures to say out loud:
Hebrews 11:1 NIV
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Mark 11:24 NIV
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.
Luke 1:37 NIV
For nothing will be impossible with God.
2 Corinthians 5:7 NIV
For we walk by faith and not by sight
When we ask God for something in prayer, we need to believe that we receive the answer when we pray. That is what faith does. Faith does not waiver, it believes. God will always answer the prayers we pray in alignment with the word of God. That is why we should pray the word of God.
When we pray for personal alignment in certain areas that we are not sure about, then we pray, “Lord not my will, but your will be done in every area of my life”.
Some of you are going around and around the mountain because you are not praying according to the word of God. God honors His word and the word of God does not return void.
For example – When you are struggling with your finances, instead of speaking lack, you need to pray the word of God into the situation.
“Lord I come before you and I ask you to meet the amount I need. According to Philippians 4:19 NIV, You supply all my needs according to your riches and glory in Christ Jesus. I now receive what I ask for by faith in the word of God in Jesus name Amen”.
Today, the command from God is to start praying the word of God. We are not just going to pray by the way prayers. We are going to pray prayers that are filled with power and authority. The word of God carries weight over every situation you are facing.
Perhaps you are feeling fearful today. Then pray this prayer- “Lord I pray 2 Timothy 1:7 over my mind today: For God has not given me a spirit of fear, but power, love and a sound mind of Christ. Thank you Lord that I now receive the manifestation of that power in my life. I now agree with the word and confess I have power, love and a sound mind”.
Can you see that praying a bible verse is the most powerful thing you can do. The word will work for you all the time.
In Isaiah 55:11 NIV it says, “So is my word that goes out from my mouth: it will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it”.
Prayer to pray today
Father God, thank you that when I pray scriptures into your hearing they will be fulfilled in every area of my life. The word of God is powerful. I choose to believe the word of God in Jesus name Amen.
FIVE THANK YOU DECLARATIONS TODAY:
1. Thank you Jesus that your word is final authority in my life.
