How to Pray

Father, I come today to make my confession of your word before your great throne of mercy. I know that you are my Father Lord Jesus, you are my Lord and Savior. The Holy Spirit dwells within my body. I am covered with the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. The angels of God attend my way. Lord, I do not believe all that my eyes see and all that my body feels and all that the enemy would bring against me. I know that I shall rise no higher, nor sink lower than my confession. I dare to boldly confess your word. As I boldly confess your word, my body will line up with your word, my mind will obey your word, and my spirit will rise to the level of your word. I thank you that you have placed a law within me and within your word. We shall have whatsoever we say, and there is power of life and death in the tongue. (Mark 11:23 & Proverbs 18:21) Lord, I choose life. Life is mine and not death. Father, I come to boldly declare that I am strong. I am strong spiritually, I am strong mentally, I am strong physically, I am strong financially, and I am strong materially. Father, I want to thank you that I am strong in my spirit, soul, and body. Lord, the Bible says, "Let the weak say, I am strong." (Joel 3:10) It did not say, "Let the weak pray." It said "Let the weak say, I am strong."

I AM STRONG!
Amen (or So be it)
