THE WORD WORKS!!!

Through faith I know that I can cast, not timidly give, but cast all my cares upon You (I Pe 5:7, Phil 4:6 & Ps.54:22). That by hoping in You I have renewed strength (Isa.40:31), perfect peace (Isa.26:3), and will remain in Your everlasting arms (Deut.33:27). Since You give me my strength, I can do everything through You (Phil.4:13). Even though my adversary the devil prowls about like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (I Pe.5:8), I have been given Victory in my Lord Jesus Christ (I Cor.15:57) and shall lack no good thing though the lion shall grow weak (Ps.34:10).

You have given me the choice, and I choose life through Your grace (Deut.30:19). Having chosen life, I know that not one of Your promises has ever failed (Josh 23:14), that You do not speak without acting (Nu.23:19), nor does Your Word return unto You void (Isa.55:11). I know that these promises are for today, for in this world I am like Jesus (I John 4:17). I am to act on Your will that I may become pure and blameless in this generation (Phil 2:15) and thereby present myself to You spotless and without wrinkle when You return (Eph.5:27). I shall not pray my problems and thereby become ensnared by the words of my mouth (Prov.6:2), for You know what I need before I pray (Matt.6:8). Rather, I shall pray the solution through Your Word knowing that I have received (I John 5:15). I know that as I lift these words unto You in prayer they will be fulfilled (Ps.145:19) and my faith will grow. (Ro.10:17).

IN JESUS NAME, AMEN.
