Rapture Watch

You've heard of daily power drinks, this is a "Power Prayer".

Heavenly Father, this morning I honor and reverence you for who you are. I praise your name from the depth of my heart because you have been so good to me. In times of chaos and confusion I’ve always found peace in the arms of your presence and the lap of your word. Thank you for being God, thank you for loving me in spite of how I may have missed it or acted. Thank you for 1 John 1:9 which promised forgiveness and cleansing in times of weakness. I’m blessed to know that your love in my life runs deep and wide. (Ephesians 3:18) Thank you for never giving up on me or turning your ear from my voice (Isaiah 65:24). Thank you for giving me the opportunity to boldly approach your throne, the throne of Grace. (Hebrews 4:16)

This morning I come offering my life completely and totally to you.(1 Thessalonians 5:23) I open my heart to you alone so that you can search and inspect my every motive and my every intention. I want my desires to line up with yours because I don’t want any wicked or twisted way in me. Everything I do and every decision I make I want it to flow out of a heart of love for you and others. I have no desire to be driven by the enemy or circumstances. I’m filled with your spirit and I thank you that his inward presence is working its way outward so that my day to day life is governed by your righteousness.

I offer my body in worship as a living sacrifice and your word said that it would be completely acceptable to you. (Romans 12:1) So I do so thanking you that my body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, he lives in me, breathes in me and speaks within me. (1 Corinthians 6:19) I’m sensitive to his voice, and I know it well. I respond to him immediately. Father, I won’t ignore him. I’ll keep my ears to his lips as I meditate on your word. Thank you for the ability to sharply hear you and open my eyes to understand and see anything that may block me from clearly hearing you. I know your voice, so I will not follow anyone else. (John 10:5) Your voice is the loudest and strongest in my life. Thank you for speaking to my heart and to my mind; as a result, I know what I am to do in every situation; I’m not void of understanding.

Lord I will walk with you and together we can overcome every circumstance or situation that will confront us. You are the God who sees ahead and makes provision, so nothing will come my way that you haven’t already given me the wisdom, direction and provision to meet and/or beat. I am an overcomer and I won’t allow the pressures of this world or those around me to dictate my response. (1 John 2:13) Fill me with your presence so that in every instance I act and respond out of your love and wisdom. I desire your love to flow from every word, every thought and every action.

Father God I am your child and I stand in my rightful position of authority today. I’m authorized by Jesus my elder Brother and Head of the Church to subdue the works of the enemy and to reign as king in this life (Romans 5:17). Give me the understanding as I seek your word. Thank you for your abundant grace toward me and thank you for making me your righteousness.

Father I decree great blessings over my life today, I say that I’m blessed going in and I’m blessed going out; everything I put my hands to prospers. I’m above in every endeavor and never beneath. I have abundance and no lack, I’m healed, I’m whole, I’m delivered and I’m free. I’m Free to walk in your word, free to declare your goodness; free to bring others into the glorious liberty that you have graciously extended to me. Your favor rest upon me and I wear it like a coat, it opens doors for me that no man can shut. In Jesus name I pray, amen!
