Prayer for Today – Living Hope

February 11, 2016

Father, I watch TV and see that things haven’t changed as much as I had hoped. Fear, doubt, hate, war and violence are still the weapon of choice by our eternal enemy. Many times when I’m watching, listening or reading the news I have to remind myself that You have not given me a spirit of fear, but a mind of love, power and self-control.

I have to remind myself that You, the creator of heaven and earth, are my shelter and my hope in the midst of danger. You are my mighty and impenetrable force and security. You are my well proven, right now help; just as You have been before. You are my ready and reliable God!

When things don’t look like they’re going to work out in my best interest I have to remind myself that El Elyon, the Most High God, dwells in me and has given me a portion of His divine, dunamis power. You will break the power of my enemy. You have already made me victorious.

So today Lord, I will cease war like activities and rest in my personal knowledge; my past experiences with You. I will rest in the fact that my God is supreme! The Lord of the heavenly host is with me! His divine power is my defense and my cliff which makes me inaccessible to my enemies! Hallelujah! I pray in Jesus name. Amen!
