During the first decade of this century, many fiery trials came my way. Through them, God redirected my life and taught me many lessons. Through these experiences, a pastor friend gave me books and audio messages on Faith, Healing and Speaking God’s promises in my life. For the past several years, speaking God's WORD into my life has been a daily practice. God has put it upon my heart today to take a break from our series lessons in order to share this with you.
This is a guide to praying by confessing our faith. Profess your prayers out loud and with feeling. This material is derived loosely from Charles Capps’ materials (God’s Creative Power For Your Life) . It is only a guide, although, if prayed three times a day or more (verbatim); during difficult times of (physical, emotional, spiritual or financial) challenges, it will have a profound effect. The affirmations and scriptures were modified from the Capps’ materials in order emphasize more the building up of high towers of strength, instead of pulling down of strongholds. Building a high tower and a mighty fortress in the Lord; leaves no room for the Devil to get a stronghold. This is a positive approach. I encourage you to check out Charles Capps' website at http://www.charlescapps.com/.
This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalms 118:24 KJV
It is of the LORD'S mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22-23 KJV
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
Proverbs 3:6 KJV
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Philippians 4:13 KJV
What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31 KJV
There is Power in the name of JESUS!
THE LORD’S PRAYER Matthew 6:9-13 KJV (Make this prayer live by expounding on each section/phrase)
After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven (acknowledge God personally & acknowledge His greatness), Hallowed be thy name (Praise and worship Him & His name JESUS). Thy Kingdom come, (acknowledge His Kingdom in YOU and that you are an ambassador of Christ & all that it means). Thy will be done in earth (in this earthen vessel, your life…ultimately in the entire world), as it is in heaven (You are a pioneer of the Kingdom of Heaven). Give us this day our daily bread (don’t ask as much as make this a thanksgiving of God and His daily provisions Spiritually, Emotionally, Physically; in relationships with Him, family, friends and coworkers). And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors (pray for a forgiving heart toward all who have ever trespassed against you…realize that if you pray for forgiveness and don’t forgive others; you may be praying a curse upon yourself) . And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil (acknowledge that you are helpless over temptation & evil. Only by the Holy Ghost living in you and God’s Grace & Mercy being renewed continuously{more than daily} that you will be able to walk in His righteousness): For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory (Glorify, praise and worship Jesus our Father at the end as well as the beginning of each segment of prayer), for ever. {in Jesus’ name,}Amen.
A Psalm of David Psalms 23:1-6 KJV (Pray this Psalm directly to God; “You Lord Jesus are…”)
The LORD is my shepherd (You Lord Jesus are my Shepherd); I shall not want. He (You) maketh me to lie down in green pastures: (You) he leadeth me beside the still waters. (You) He restoreth my soul: (You) he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for (Your) his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the (Your house O Lord for ever) house of the LORD for ever.
Rejoice in the LORD Psalms 33:1-22 (in part) KJV (We are made in God’s image and have His power of speaking blessings into existence…on the breath of his (our) mouth…this is an awesome thought.
Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery. Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise. For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth. He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the LORD. By the Word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. … Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast…The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance. The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name (JESUS) . Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
Paul said “I die daily,” meaning that he renewed the Gospel daily; that is the Death, Burial and Resurrection of Jesus Christ (repentance, baptism & speaking in tongues). Pray in tongues as the Spirit moves you.
Father in Heaven forgive me for I am a sinner and guilty of the blood and body of Christ. Create in me a clean heart my O Lord; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation and uphold me by thy free spirit. Then will I teach transgressors thy ways and sinners shall be converted unto thee and enter the Gospel. I rebuke the Devil in Jesus name.
