Heavenly Father, thank you for your faithfulness. Thank you for your promises, they are our protection and armour. I pray that I would hold your promises in my heart and mind Lord Jesus. Forgive me for when I don’t always believe them to be true for my life. Remove the spirit of self-doubt from my heart. When I say I don’t deserve you, you say that I do! Create in me a pure heart and renew a steadfast spirit within me. I am your child. As I live in this world people around me might try to tell me that I am something different to who I have been created to be, even try to tell me that I am not good enough. I know that this is all a lie. Protect me from discouraging words that come into my heart and mind and free me from past words that have crushed my confidence. I am free because of you. Guard my heart and mind and put your armour on me Lord. I am enough and I will not believe words that choke me from producing fruit. You created my inmost being and you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Bring the hope I have in you to life Lord Jesus. Stir up your spirit within me so that I may be willing, committed and wholehearted in all I do for you. Give me your wisdom so that I may spread knowledge of your love and love others in the same way you love. Clothe me in your righteousness so that I live as a child of light, that produces the fruit of goodness and truth. Show me what pleases you, Lord. Open the eyes of my heart to see you. Fill me with knowledge of your will through all wisdom and understanding that the spirit gives, so that I may live a life worthy of you Lord, and please you in every way. I receive your armour of protection today and will shelter under your wings. In Jesus name, Amen.
Psalm 139: 1-6 (NIV)
You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain. In Jesus name, Amen.
