As I've watched my loving husband pour over Scripture all of these years, I realized something was missing in my own life...
I began to pray two things... I prayed to love God more than I love any other thing in all of life. And then I prayed to love his Word. And all I can tell you is when I began to pray that, he started to do it. I believe that can happen for you also. I just love His Word. It is sooooo alive to me.
Here are some affirmations for you to speak out loud each day over your life as you pour yourself over God's Word.
I recognize by faith that God is worthy of all honor, praise, and worship as the Creator and Sustainer and End of all things. As my Creator I confess that God made me for Himself. In this day I therefore choose to live for Him according to Revelation 5:9, 10, and 4:11; Isaiah 43:1, 7, 21.
I recognize by faith that God loved me and chose me in Christ before time began according to Eph. 1:1-7.
I recognize by faith that since I have received Christ as my Lord and Savior, I believe God's Word that He has received me, adopted me into His family whereby He has assumed every responsibility for me.
My body is a temple for the Holy Spirit, redeemed, cleansed, healed, delivered, and sanctified by the Blood of Jesus Christ.
Satan has no place in me, no power over me, no unsettled claims against me. All has been settled by the Blood of Jesus Christ.
I have overcome Satan by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of my testimony, and I love not my life unto the death. (I crucify my flesh, my self, my ego, my way, etc.) My body is for the Lord and the Lord is for my body.
Through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, I am redeemed out of the hand of satan.
Through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, all my sins are forgiven.
The blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, God's son, continually cleanses me from all sin.
Through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, I am justified, made righteous, just as if I'd never sinned.
Through the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, I am sanctified, made holy, set apart unto God.
The blood of the Lord Jesus Christ cleanses my conscience from dead works to serve the Living God.
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.
I confess with my mouth and I believe in my heart that God has raised Jesus Christ from the dead and that He (Jesus Christ) is Lord.
"No weapon formed against me shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against me in judgment You shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is from Me," Says the LORD.
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me.
I am washed, sanctified and justified in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of God.
My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in me, whom I have received from God. I am not my own; I was bought with a price.
I desire to walk in the Spirit and not fulfill the lust of the flesh.
I submit myself to God who gives more grace to the humble, and He will lift me up.
Behold, the Lord Jesus Christ has given unto me power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt me.
I cast down vain imaginations and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and I bring every thought captive to the obedience of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I yield no ground to satan; I take back all that I have ever surrendered to him in the past and acknowledge that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord of all my life.
Thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
For the Harvest,
Cathie
