My Prayer for Today Lord, I never want to play games with You. I am asking You right now to forgive me for any time that I have lied to You and to myself, deceiving myself into believing that things were all right in my life when, in fact, they were not inwardly good at all. Please shine Your light deep into my soul to show me any areas of my life that need immediate attention. I pray this in Jesu...

My Prayer for Today Lord, thank You for being such a good example of love that is unshaken and unaffected by other people’s actions. You have loved me with a consistent love, even in times when I’ve acted badly and didn’t deserve it.

My Prayer for Today Lord, I ask You to help me be more like Jesus! Help me release the grudges and deeply-held resentments that I am tempted to carry toward people. Instead of rejoicing when they get in trouble or when something bad happens to them, help me to reach out to them, to see what I can do to help, and to become the hand of God in their lives. Forgive me that I haven’t already acted as J...

My Prayer for Today Lord, I am so glad that You are the great “I AM” and that You have power over every force in the universe.

My Prayer for Today Lord, help me learn how to avoid misjudging and misperceiving other people. I know that when I misjudge someone, it affects my opinion of that person in a way that can open a door to the devil in our relationship with each other. I don’t want to give the devil an inch in any of my relationships, so I need You to help me think cautiously, to take time to get to know people, and...

My Prayer for Today Lord, I am so thankful You possess the greatest power in the whole universe! I’m not serving a dead god; I’m serving a living Lord who is interceding for me at the right hand of the Father at this very moment.

My Prayer for Today Lord, please forgive me for the times I’ve allowed the devil to put a wedge between me and the people You have placed in my life. Help me go to them and ask forgiveness for the things I did wrong. Help me also to extend patience, forgiveness, and love to others who have done wrong to me or who will wrong me in the future. I never want the devil to be in charge of my emotions or...

My Prayer for Today Lord, I know that You want to change me and conform me into the image of Jesus more than anything else. I often feel rushed to get things moving, but I know that You are looking to see if I have the character I need so I can successfully do what You’ve called me to do. I yield my heart to You and ask You to do Your work inside me. Change me so You can use me as You wish! I pray...

My Prayer for Today Lord, the next time the devil tries to get in my way or to block my path, help me to raise my feet/peace high, and pound down as hard as I can, and stomp all over him as I march forward unhindered to do Your will.

It has always been the plan and the joy of God to witnesses His sons and daughters taking the lead and giving Him glory by obeying and being like Him.

We have been talking about the deadly trap of misappropriating your loyalty to people, places, and things. This absolute support or allegiance has the ability to hinder our very God from speaking and leading you to your place of victory and freedom. Loyalty speaks for us, acts for us, and dictates our course of direction. We learned in the previous weeks that Jesus according to Hebrews 7:20-28 is...

Loyalty to people, places or things is a false sense of honor, faithfulness, and dedication. The only thing that requires and can retain our loyalty is God. Loyalty is an absolute support or allegiance to something. It is spiritual because it has the ability to stop God himself from operating in your life. Unfortunately, we have taken this thing God created for Himself and we misappropriated towar...

When we think of the word “Loyalty”, we tend to think of something that is ride or die, or down for whatever, or not going anywhere no matter WHAT! However, that may sound good if it relates to your family, friends, job, even your church. However, there are many effects to our loyalty being tied to the wrong thing. Loyalty is a strong feeling of support or allegiance. When we begin to look at what...

When the Lord saved Israel and led them into the wilderness it was to test and transition them for the next step in their journey with God. Jesus himself was led and spent 40 days in the wilderness being tempted and tested by Satan. God uses the wilderness experience to literally kill the, “I need a substitute; taste buds out of our mouths. When that happens, it causes us to grow deeper in love, a...
