Warfare

Day 1

Holy Father,

I praise You that I can come boldly in prayer to Your throne today (Hebrews 10:19). You have provided me with every spiritual blessing through Christ and have granted me everything for life and godliness (Ephesians 1:3; 2 Peter 1:3). You have given me the keys to the kingdom of heaven, and You have already loosed Your love, approval, and completeness into my life through Your life (Matthew 16:19; Ephesians 4:7; Colossians 2:10). Teach me how to use these keys to access all that You have in store for me and the world around me. How blessed I am that the Almighty King of Kings is also my Abba, Father (Galatians 4:6).

Thank You for forgiving all my sins (Hebrews 10:12,17). My past sins, my present sins, and my future sins are all forgiven — not because I have done something right — but because You have (Titus 3:5). Because of Christ’s once-for-all obedience (Romans 5:19 Darby Translation; Hebrews 9:11-12). You choose to keep me forgiven, not because I’m “doing better,” but because the blood of Christ satisfies You (Romans 9:16; Exodus 12:13; 1 Peter 1:18-19). My entire Christian experience is now lived out within Christ, not within me (Galatians 2:20). Because of Christ’s death and resurrection, satan is my defeated foe (Revelation 12:10). Remind me often of that fact.

Granted, satan continues to condemn me of faults. He is a lying accuser at his core (John 8:44; Zechariah 3:1). Father, remind me not to look at my works for justification (Galatians 2:16). Satan was rendered powerless in my life because of Your doing, not mine (Hebrews 2:14-15). You, O God, have acquitted and absolved me (Romans 8:33; Isaiah 50:9). What right does anything or anyone have to condemn me (Romans 8:34)? Christ’s blood cleanses me, even when my own conscience criticizes me (Hebrews 9:14). Praise You, Father, for being greater than all, including my oversensitive heart (1 John 3:19-20).

Thank You, not only for forgiving all my transgressions but for canceling every bit of the debt I owed You (Colossians 2:13-14). What my religion could not do, You did, by fulfilling Your own requirements for me (Romans 8:3-4). Hallelujah! You nailed me on the cross with Christ, so that my old Adam-like nature is dead and gone (Romans 6:6,8). Christ’s blood dealt with my past actions, and Christ’s cross separates me from a daily bent toward disobedience (Romans 7:4). I came into this world as a living soul. I’ve been born again into Your Kingdom by Your life-giving spirit (1 Corinthians 15:45). Grant me a spirit of wisdom and revelation to know all that I have in You (Ephesians 1:17).

Although You have freely given me every Kingdom provision, I still war against the forces of darkness and wickedness (Romans 8:32; Ephesians 6:12). The evil one prowls about, trying to devour me and mine at every turn (1 Peter 5:8). Thank You that because I am in You and You are in me, I do not have to fear satan (Colossians 3:3; 1:27; Hebrews 2:15). You are greater in me than the power of the evil one around me (1 John 4:4). Help me when my belief in this fact waivers (Mark 9:24).

I will not cower in fear because, in You, I have an overcoming power, an overwhelming love, and a perfect, sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). I have the very mind of Christ Himself (1 Corinthians 2:16). I will resist the evil one, firm in my faith, and watch satan fall (1 Peter 5:9; Luke 10:18). Thank You for Your faithfulness. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
