The enemy within has only has power with my permission

She defiled herself with immorality
and gave no thought to her future.

The Lord has withdrawn his protection
as the enemy attacks.

I will never forget this awful time,
as I grieve over my loss.
21Yet I still dare to hope
when I remember this:
22The faithful love of the Lord never ends!3:22 As in Syriac version; Hebrew reads of the Lord keeps us from destruction.
His mercies never cease.
23Great is his faithfulness;
his mercies begin afresh each morning.

Lord God,
I despise my selfish ways and I surrender to your will. Lord God, deliver me from my self and take captive my actions. Allow me to see your truth and turn from my way to your way in all things. Lord God, the enemy is constantly surrounding me I need your protection. Your endless Love is my desire, destroy the idol’s in my presence.

In Jesus name,
Amen

The battle is in me

For who is like me, and who can challenge me?
What ruler can oppose my will?”

Pursue, kill, and completely destroy them,
as I have commanded you,” says the Lord.

Lord God,
You are mighty, no one is like you so why do I doubt your power in my life. Lord God. pursue and destroy the enemy that is within me and make me pure in your desire. I give you complete control over my will, take it and shape it to do your glory.

In Jesus name,
Amen

Release His purpose and Joy will follow

Do not be afraid, Jacob, my servant,
for I am with you,” says the Lord.

I will discipline you, but with justice;
I cannot let you go unpunished.”

Cursed are those who refuse to do the Lord’s work,

Lord God,
May I commit to follow you without reservation. Remove my resistance and give me courage to blindly follow your desire in me. When I stray discipline me with your justice. May my obedience release your Joy in my actions.

In Jesus name,
Amen

Harden my heart on the Lord

Pray that the Lord your God will show us what to do and where to go.”

“And now the Lord God of Heaven’s Armies, the God of Israel, asks you: Why are you destroying yourselves?

To this very hour you have shown no remorse or reverence.

Lord God,
Open my heart to go where you direct me, protect me from my own weakness. I am sorry I have fought your plan for so long.

In Jesus name,
Amen

Fear to follow

“But I am afraid to surrender,” the king said, “for the Babylonians may hand me over to the Judeans who have defected to them. And who knows what they will do to me!”
20Jeremiah replied, “You won’t be handed over to them if you choose to obey the Lord. Your life will be spared, and all will go well for you.

Lord God,
Protect me from having fear in doing your will.
In Jesus name,
Amen

Wholehearted struggle

I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 12In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me. 14I will be found by you,” says the Lord.

Lord God,
Help me to turn away from my way and follow you wholeheartedly, I struggle for control of my life and actions, I wish to follow only you.

In Jesus name,
Amen

Pure desire for the Lord.

Lord, you are my strength and fortress,
my refuge in the day of trouble!

“Now I will show them my power;
now I will show them my might.
At last they will know and understand
that I am the Lord.

O Lord, if you heal me, I will be truly healed;
if you save me, I will be truly saved.
My praises are for you alone!

“‘But if you do not listen to me and refuse to keep the Sabbath holy, and if on the Sabbath day you bring loads of merchandise through the gates of Jerusalem just as on other days, then I will set fire to these gates. The fire will spread to the palaces, and no one will be able to put out the roaring flames.’”

Lord God,
You are my strength and my refuge, help me with my selfish desire to take control from you. Allow me to do amazing things in your name so the world and I will understand it is all from you. Heal me from my own way and deliver me to your path so you will get all praise. Heal me and deliver me from a lifetime of selfish desire so you will get all praise. May I surrender to trust you and take the Sabbath and surrender it to you completely. May you burn in my heart and purify my way.

In Jesus name,
Amen

Why do I doubt?

O Lord my God, my Holy One, you who are eternal—
O Lord, our Rock,
The Sovereign Lord is my strength!

Oh Lord my God, my Holy One,
You are my Rock, my life is built on your foundation.
Purify my desires and remove my rebellious ways.
In me is weakness, replace it with your Holiness.
May my thoughts be yours today.
In Jesus name,
Amen

At rest with the Lord

Time after time I sent you prophets, who told you, “Turn from your wicked ways, and start doing things right. Stop worshiping other gods so that you might live in peace here in the land I have given to you and your ancestors.”

Perhaps even yet they will turn from their evil ways and ask the Lord’s forgiveness before it is too late. For the Lord has threatened them with his terrible anger.”

He wrote everything that had been on the scroll King Jehoiakim had burned in the fire. Only this time he added much more!

My Lord, My God,
I am weak and stuck in my ways, I surrender to you and plea with you to remove my sinful nature and thoughts, I wish to be purged of all thoughts that separate me from your glorious path and tire me so. I wish to completely turn from the sinful desires in my heart and become whole in your presence. Forgive me for my past and deliver me to a glorious now with you.

In Jesus name,
Amen

To live in constant worship

“I am the Lord, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?

“I am the Lord, the God of all the peoples of the world. Is anything too hard for me?

I will put a desire in their hearts to worship me, and they will never leave me.

I will cleanse them of their sins against me and forgive all their sins of rebellion. 9Then this city will bring me joy, glory, and honor before all the nations of the earth!

Lord God,
You are the creator, nothing is beyond your power, You are my God and Lord. You placed a desire to seek you that only grows stronger as I look for you. Cleanse me from my sin nature, make me pure in your eyes, make my heart pure. Give me energy to do your will only.

In Jesus name,
Amen
