The soul of the Believer is of principal interest to satan. He will use thoughts and arguments to distract us from our faith. But we have a weapon that we seldom use but is very powerful.
~ Ephesians 6:17
But he who endures to the end shall be saved. ~Matthew 24:13
What a powerful and sure promise in God's Word, it tell us that if we remain dedicated to God and His Word, we will make it to the end, and we will be saved. There is no doubt in this statement. So take up your sword. The battle is ours.
Heavenly Father, I now put in each of our hands the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God, which we choose to use against all forces of evil. I declare that we defeat the enemy with the Word of God as the Spirit of God leads us according to Revelation 19:11-16. I put away murmuring, complaining, condemning and criticizing from each of us. I thank You that You are OUR AUTHORITY, JESUS and THE LORD OF HOSTS, JEHOVAH SABBOATH. I now take the Sword of the Spirit and use the authority that God has ordained me with according to Luke 9:1, for we have been given power and authority over all the devils and demons, to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy according to Luke 10:19.
Heavenly Father, as we go out today, let us recognize You as Jehovah Sabaoth, we will not fear, for You have called us by name, we are Yours. When we pass through the waters, You will be with us, and through the rivers, they will not overtake us. When we walk through the fire, we will not be burned, neither will the flame kindle upon us according to Isaiah 43:1-2. We will not be dismayed, for You are our God according to Isaiah 41:10. We will wait upon You Lord and You will renew our strength. We will mount up with wings as eagles. We will run and not be weary. We will walk and not faint according to Isaiah 40:31. We will not be afraid or dismayed by reason of the great multitude. The battle is not ours but Yours according to II Chronicles 20:15. You are on our side; therefore we will fear no man according to Psalms 118:6. When the enemy comes in like a flood, Your Spirit will lift up a standard against him according to Isaiah 59:19. You did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind according to 2 Timothy 1:7. Greater is Jesus in us than any demon, devil, fallen angel, evil force, power, principality, and rulers of darkness, spiritual wickedness, satan, and those under him. Greater is Jesus in us than the devil is in the world according to I John 4:4. Greater is Jesus in us than all our circumstances and all our reasoning. Therefore, we follow You Jesus. We cry out to You Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, who is, and who is to come. You have created all things and for Your pleasure and by Your will, they are and were created and continue to exist. You are worthy to receive glory, honor, and power. To You belongs the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever according to Matthew 6:13. Amen.
