A Strong & Powerful Prayer For Your Home | Declare This For Protection, Blessings, Spiritual Victory

wherever you live whatever type of property you have on the exterior your home is being exposed to a lot of things your home is exposed to the rain and to the sunshine it is exposed to potential floods perhaps blizzards or even heatwave your homes are exposed to storms and some are even exposed to tornadoes or hurricanes and the thing is all is well as long as you have the confidence that a your house is built to withstand the weather and the extreme seasons of nature and be all is well as long as internally you don't see any leaks and you don't see any cracks in the ceiling or in the walls when we seek refuge and shelter from the weather most of us feel safe in our homes that is because we trust that they are purpose built to withstand the different seasons we might not have been there when the house was built from scratch but nonetheless we believe that the foundation is deep enough we believe that the structure is solid enough we believe that the materials used are adequate and suitable now the bible says in ephesians 6 12 for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers against the rulers of the darkness of this world against spiritual wickedness in high places since we as children of god do not wrestle against flesh and blood then this means that we should be guarding and protecting our homes in the spiritual realm we should be seeking protection from jesus christ over our homes so that in the spiritual realm we have a strong foundation so that we have a strong structure that is reinforced by faith and by the holy spirit as children of god we should really be making sure that our homes are fortified by the mighty blood of jesus so that if like ephesians 6 12 says if we wrestle not against flesh and blood then we must build our homes on jesus christ the one who was forever victorious that way if we come up against any principality any evil powers or any rulers of darkness then they cannot cause any damage to our homes if you didn't already know your home if left unguarded through a lack of prayer your home is then left exposed to the attacks of the enemy so i'd like to encourage you people of god to draw a line set up a supernatural perimeter around your home make a stance and send a message to the devil pray and declare that through the authority that's in the name of jesus christ devil you cannot breach the secured space that is my home through the power that's in the blood of jesus christ satan you cannot enter this perimeter through the power that's in the word of god no evil can bypass the angel of the lord that encamps around my home saints your home should be a place that is graced by god's presence always it should be a sweet place your home should be a place of prayer and together with your family your home should be a place of unity and oneness through christ don't allow cracks to appear and then just leave them unattended don't allow any leaks to interrupt the peace that god has given you if you don't have the presence of the lord the peace of the lord the joy of the lord in your home then how can you truly live in victory as a believer in jesus christ i encourage you to secure the peace in your home today secure the joy in your home today invite the holy spirit in so that he can move to bring the goodness of the lord at your residence now let us pray dear lord jesus your name is high and above all other names the name of jesus christ is high and above all principalities and all powers the name of jesus christ is high and above all the rulers of the darkness of this world and above all spiritual wickedness in high places and so i declare that my home is protected by the lord the foundation of my home is the lord god almighty the devil and his principalities and demons all have one thing in common they cannot win against the power of you god they cannot overcome the blood of jesus they cannot destroy my home because i will forever abide under the shadow of the almighty i speak the blood of jesus christ to surround and form a perimeter where i stay the devil has no power here satan has no hold and no right of entry in this home in the name of jesus i pray your word says in 2 thessalonians 3 verse 3 that the lord is faithful and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one i look to you king jesus i look to you to divinely protect the walls and structure of this home raise up a standard against the enemy king jesus may your divine strength and might be on full display i pray that you will always provide safety and relief for me and my family and even as we seek your physical protection from the storms of life we also seek your intervention in anything that may bring us harm i give you chief place in this home lord i pray that this home will be one in which the word of god is loved honored and obeyed may this home be one that is saturated with your divine presence and may it be a home in which prayer is heard often lord jesus you are very much needed at all times and in every way in this home we thank you for your heavenly protection without you there is nothing i can build nothing i can maintain or protect with my own hands and so i acknowledge that i need you i need your guidance i need your wisdom i need your holy spirit so that i will never become complacent and leave spiritual doors open that will allow the devil to enter may this home be one that only knows the glorious presence of god may this home be one that is filled by the precious holy spirit may this home be one that is soaked with your love your peace and your joy in the mighty and precious name of jesus christ i pray [Music] amen [Music] have faith have faith i really want you to hear me as i say this have faith in jesus christ have faith in god whatever you are going through however deep the waters however big the giant is stand and have faith in the one who speaks and the wind obeys have faith in the one who speaks and creates have faith in the one whose breath has eternal life have faith in the one who speaks and breaks the grip of death have faith in jesus and by definition faith is having firm trust in god it's trusting that he is the way out it's trusting that he is a pillar of strength when you feel weak faith is you saying i am in god's hands despite what comes faith is believing that god will honor and execute his word in your hour of need to have faith is to trust in the almighty god and believe that he will come through for you in all circumstances [Music] now the thing about faith is faith becomes more defined and refined in difficult circumstances and don't be fearful and start thinking that you need faith the size of noah's ark in his teaching on faith jesus requires us to have faith as small as a mustard seed hebrews 12 verse 2 says looking unto jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of god if you feel like your faith is inadequate then remember these two things your only requirement is to have faith the size of a mustard seed and to look to jesus as the beginning and the end of christian faith everyone has a measure of faith when they receive jesus and the bible indicates that it has to grow the increase in faith however is a personal responsibility romans 10 17 says so then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of god the food that feeds faith is the word of god the nutrients that grow faith come from the word of god the ground for faith to thrive and grow is the word of god and you may ask why such emphasis on the word of god as a seed of faith why not worship why not fast to grow your faith well it's because the grass withers the flowers fade but the word of god stands forever according to isaiah 40 verse 8. it's because isaiah 55 11 says so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth it shall not return to me void but it shall accomplish what i please and it shall prosper in the thing for which i sent it so people of god look to the bible and look to jesus as your source of faith now let us pray dear lord i pray that you would grow my faith although i will start with faith the size of a mustard seed may you help me to grow in belief until i have faith that can move mountains until i have faith that is unshakable because it is anchored in him who lives forever increase my faith lord feed me with your word so that whatever is lacking in my spirit will be filled by you let my faith become clearer may it become more defined let my faith go beyond the saving faith when i gave my life to you but let it be strong and assured let it be firm faith so that when i face the enemy i can declare the words of david in 1st samuel 17 14 where he said you come to me with a sword with a spear and with a javelin but i come to you in the name of the lord of hosts i pray that you would give me faith that endures and overcomes sickness because your word says by his stripes we are healed i pray for faith that can overcome heartbreak because the word assures me that i will receive mercy and find grace to help me in my time of need lord jesus may i find the strength to let go and move on from the past because i am confident and trusting in your ability to lead me into a better and brighter future i believe lord that only you can fully repair a broken heart you can renew a sinful mind and save a lost soul that is why i surrender only to you may you fill every void that may unsettle and trouble my heart i pray that i may embrace a future that is in your hands even though my eyes may not be able to see i trust you king jesus to give me a future that is filled with open doors a future filled with love and goodness for me and my family with you by my side i trust and believe that i have a safe place i have a god who rescues and defends by faith i receive the joy that comes only from you by faith i receive healing in your presence by faith i receive peace in my mind peace in my home and peace within my family i receive restoration in your presence i declare that i am made whole again in your presence there is no one comparable to you o god and for this reason i bow and submit to you i bow down and confess that you are lord and i need you in my life i need you to continue to be a light unto my path king jesus chase away every dark thing and destroy the attacks of the enemy i praise you for your unconditional love a love that always protects a love that leads and guides a love that always provides a love that always forgives i praise you for your consistency may your name always be praised for such love whenever i need you you are always there for me whenever i call on your name you always answer thank you for your goodness i bless your name i say you are holy and precious thank you for hearing this prayer in the mighty and precious name of jesus christ amen i want to teach you three simple words today three simple words to speak against your problems against whatever is bothering you or weighing you down in fact use these three simple words against the devil full stop and these words are no matter what no matter what the devil tries the spirit of the lord shall lift up a standard against him no matter what my emotions say the joy of the lord is my strength i have been given peace beyond understanding [Music] no matter what the doctor said by his stripes i am healed no matter what your stepmother or your stepfather did god says in isaiah 54 verse 10 though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed says the lord who has compassion on you [Music] no matter what your supervisor said your colleague your peer or your teacher no matter what they said the lord said you are the head and not the tail and you shall only go up and not down so often too often we invite negative things into our circumstances because of what we say but i want to encourage you to say something against the attacks of the devil speak against that stronghold speak against your situation and don't speak in vain don't speak empty affirmations speak against everything that is against god's will in your life no matter what it is that you face there is a verse there is a promise that you can hold on to if the problem is to do with addiction jesus christ is well able to set you free no matter what because first corinthians 10 verse 13 says no temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man but god is faithful and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape that you may be able to endure it if the problem is in your marriage well god is capable of healing your marriage no matter what because the bible says in mark 10 verse 9 therefore what god has joined together let no one separate no one means neither you or your other half or anyone outside the marriage god is capable of healing whatever is broken in your life he is capable of doing wonders but you also have to speak over yourself too speak his word upon your life now let us pray [Music] lord jesus thank you for your precious word your word which i can use as a weapon against the enemy's attacks your word is living and powerful meaning that it can actively counter the negative situations in my life if i speak it with faith and so father i pray for relentless faith i pray for powerful strong faith king jesus the faith to be able to speak to any situation and say no matter what god will deliver me from the fowler snare and from the deadly pestilence give me grace lord jesus the grace to be able to say no matter what i will not fear the terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day i will not fear the pestilence that stalks in darkness nor the destruction that wastes at noonday i pray for the faith to be able to stand and say no matter what i will be obedient to joshua chapter 1 verse 9 and i will say that i will be strong and courageous i will not be afraid i will not be discouraged for the lord my god will be with me wherever i go thank you for such a word that empowers me lord and father i reject the spirit of fear i denounce it i rebuke it and i cast it down in my life in jesus name my hope rests in you king jesus not in military bunkers or in weapons not in any person or establishment in this world but my hope and trust and the reason i do not fear is because of the accomplished work of jesus christ on the cross i don't fear sickness or disease i don't fear the rejection of man i don't fear any demon because second timothy 1 verse 7 says for god has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind i have nothing to fear because my stronghold is your arms lord jesus my fortress is in jesus my bunker is in psalm 91 verses 1 and 2. he who dwells in the shelter of the most high will abide in the shadow of the almighty i will say to the lord he is my refuge and my fortress my god in whom i will trust in you and in you alone king jesus can i truly say i have victory it's because of your power that i am able to speak against any negative circumstances and declare victory it's because of the lord that i can say no matter what any principality or ruler of darkness may try i am more than a conqueror i am covered by the blood of jesus christ [Music] you are ever faithful lord jesus and no matter what comes in this world your word is true and you are a good god no matter what i face in this world i claim psalm 23 verse 6 over my life surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever you are well able to make straight everything that is crooked before me you are well able master to make a way where there seems to be no way you are well able to make me whole to mend me where i am broken to lift me when i am down and to be a safe bridge over troubled water for this reason master i declare isaiah chapter 25 verse 1 o lord you are my god i will exalt you i will praise your name for you have done wonderful things plans formed of old faithful and sure i declare psalm 28 verse 7 the lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusts in him and he helps me my heart leaps for joy and with my song i praise him i thank you for listening to my prayer lord i glorify your name and i give you all the honor in the mighty name of jesus christ my lord and savior i pray [Music] amen [Music] how do you find peace and joy in a world filled with struggle how do you find peace and joy in a world where many people's daily lives can be marred by conflict and turmoil well there is an answer there is a savior called jesus christ a provider of peace peace that surpasses all understanding he is a divine supplier of joy joy unspeakable now what you and i have to do is to choose to believe in him choose to accept him we need to make the choice to allow the peace of god to infiltrate our hearts and minds and we do this by deciding to run to god we have to choose to trust in him no matter what no matter what others say no matter what they don't say the choice is ours jesus said in the bible peace i leave with you my peace i give to you not as the world gives do i give to you let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid therefore it's up to us to choose whether or not we accept the peace that jesus christ gives us we find peace and joy by choosing to pray in all that we face instead of letting yourself get anxious i encourage you to choose faith over fear choose not to stress but to believe that god is always with us and he is always in control dear friends we can choose to have peace by setting our minds and our thoughts on those things that are true and right on those things that are above and not on this earth a few days rest a vacation time alone or music will not give us lasting peace all of that will not give us peace in the midst of a storm but when we set our minds on jesus and when we set our minds on the word then we'll truly understand that the bible says in isaiah 26 verse 3 you will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you don't you desire perfect peace and the bible says you will keep him it's a state of constant peace meaning during seasons of pain god will keep you in a state of perfect peace during stormy seasons where the clouds are gray and there seems to be no sunshine ahead god will keep you in perfect peace so i encourage you to keep your mind fixed on the one who is the true source of peace jesus christ now let us pray my dear lord and savior i know that in whatever i face whatever challenge is presented before me not only are you my good shepherd but you are my peace my joy and my refuge in mark chapter 4 verse 39 your word says then he arose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea peace be still and the wind ceased and there was a great calm rebuke the storms in my life jesus those storms that come only to discourage me those storms that come only to disturb i ask that you lord in your mighty power arise and rebuke those attacks as you speak the words peace be still i now declare a great calm over my life and my family the wind has ceased the disruption has ceased no more turmoil and unrest because jesus christ has promised me peace he has promised me to be anxious for nothing and so i call on your name lord i come to you with praise on my lips i come to you with an expectant heart i say that you are holy jesus you are majestic deserving of all praise your name is worthy to be reverenced and adored your name alone is higher than every other name [Music] so today i do call on the one who is the lord of lords jesus christ the living son of god proverbs 16 7 says when a man's ways please the lord he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him i pray that my ways would please you jesus so that even my enemies even those who oppose me those who don't like me will have no choice but to bow down to your word and be at peace with me because my ways please you i am chasing after you because you offer a peace that is lasting you offer a peace that makes me confident you offer what is real and what is true peace and joy your word lord jesus fills me with deep assurance in the midst of all that i may face your word brings peace to my life because it says the lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace numbers chapter 6 verse 26 i am persuaded that nothing in my past present or future nothing in the kingdom of or here on earth can steal your peace or joy from me when i constantly abide under your shadow remove that which wishes to rise and choke out your peace out of my life remove that which wishes to rise and disrupt the joy you have given me instead i only welcome your presence i only welcome your spirit which brings wise counsel divine comfort and real freedom from bondage i am blessed because i can declare psalm 55 verse 18 he has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me for there were many against me i am blessed because i can declare romans 16 verse 20 which says and the god of peace will crush satan under your feet shortly the grace of our lord jesus christ be with you i come into agreement with your word the word of the lord which gives me strength and confidence indeed i will crush the devil under my feet because of the awesome peace from my lord jesus christ indeed the lord has redeemed my soul in peace from all who stood against me i am of good cheer because nothing is too much for me to bear as i am in christ nothing can make me shake or leave me trembling because my god is a very present help in times of trouble may the holy spirit continue to remind me that i am not alone when i face adversity when the storms of life come along i can run to jesus christ who will offer me shelter and be my deliverer be blessed and glorified in jesus mighty name i pray amen grace grace to me is being gifted with something that you cannot earn or pay for grace is god giving us what we do not deserve and i wonder how many of us really understand the magnitude and wonder of god's grace his amazing grace the grace of the lord is something we should never take for granted and so beloved personally i think of his grace over my life his goodness and mercy all of which are totally undeserved but he still freely gives all i can say is thank you lord jesus christ it's by his grace that i am here today it's by the grace of jesus christ that i am in good health i haven't done anything to deserve it i've done nothing to be worthy of such favor but in his mercy in his love and by his grace i have strength in my body i have breath in my lungs it's by god's grace that i am filled with joy and hope it's by god's grace that i have peace in my heart i am grateful to the lord because if it had not been for his grace and mercy things could so easily have been tragic for me things could have so easily gone horribly wrong but in his goodness he made my crooked places straight he made a way for me when my back was against the wall [Music] i am amazed by the grace of god as i look back over my life as i look at some of the bad decisions i made some of the mistakes i made god held me and he kept me it's by his grace that nothing destroyed me it can only be his goodness that kept me from losing my mind so allow me at this moment to just praise him equally as you listen can you honestly look back at your life and not praise him look at where he brought you from look at how many times he saved you look at all the times he forgave you we need to thank him and appreciate his goodness we all have a story we all have a past yet we all have been given amazing grace i believe that his grace should also be the reason we have boldness to proclaim the gospel to the world the bible says in 2 timothy 1 verse 8 to 9 therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our lord nor of me his prisoner but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of god who saved us and called us to a holy calling not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace which he gave us in christ jesus before the ages began [Music] let us pray my dearest savior and lord the king of kings the lord of lords jesus christ i thank you for your grace your amazing grace that has been so good to me your grace and love is what has kept me your grace toward me is unmerited i do not deserve it but yes you gave it to me you gave it to me in abundance and i thank you lord there is nothing that i could possibly do or offer to earn your love and favor but father you have been so kind to me you have been ever so faithful nonetheless your word says my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness thank you lord jesus because of your grace i lack for nothing because even when i am weak i am strong in you lord [Music] i stand on your word and hebrews 4 verse 16 a verse that says let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need may your grace and mercy continue to surround me and lead me it's by your grace lord that i am blessed when i come in and blessed when i go out so i ask that you may stand with me and stand by my side [Music] lead me to walk with discernment and diligence in this world lead me to walk by faith and not by sight [Music] holy spirit please encircle me comfort me and hold me safe and secure in your arms help me to be bold if you are on my side then i can declare that i will not be crushed by fear and anxiety if you are with me then i can declare peace in my heart and mind i look to you as the rock of my life my fortress my strong tower and my strength when i am weak you are a sovereign god who has charge over my life and you are a god who is faithful to deliver those who trust you your word says a thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand but it shall not come near you i believe this i believe that nothing no evil no darkness shall come near me because of you because of your amazing grace so i look to you a mighty god who moves mountains a god who breaks down every barrier a god who can crush the devil and remove every obstacle in my life i have the confidence that if i remain in your presence you will help me to let go of all my worries and stress help me to let go of everything i cannot control i may be limited but you are not you are a god who is in control i believe in your word which says and my god will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in christ jesus i stand on your word that says surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever thank you for the promises in your word promises that fill me with hope and remind me of your love [Music] the more i read your word the more my faith grows the more confidence i have the more strength i have to press forward isaiah 40 verse 31 says those who wait on the lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings like eagles they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not faint i pray that you renew my strength lord renew my faith and belief so that i might face today in the authority of your word you are all-powerful lord jesus and you are a god who will never leave us nor forsake us you are holy and worthy to be praised thank you for listening to my prayer in jesus name i pray amen wherever you live whatever type of property you have on the exterior your home is being exposed

sinful mind and save a lost soul that is why i surrender only to you may you fill every void that may unsettle and trouble my heart i pray that i may embrace a future that is in your hands even though my eyes may not be able to see [Music] i trust you king jesus to give me a future that is filled with open doors a future filled with love and goodness for me and my family with you by my side i trust and believe that i have a safe place i have a god who rescues and defends by faith i receive the joy that comes only from you by faith i receive healing in your presence by faith i receive peace in my mind peace in my home and peace within my family i receive restoration in your presence i declare that i am made whole again in your presence there is no one comparable to you oh god and for this reason i bow and submit to you i bow down and confess that you are lord and i need you in my life i need you to continue to be a light unto my path king jesus chase away every dark thing and destroy the attacks of the enemy i praise you for your unconditional love a love that always protects a love that leads and guides a love that always provides a love that always forgives i praise you for your consistency may your name always be praised for such love whenever i need you you are always there for me whenever i call on your name you always answer thank you for your goodness i bless your name i say you are holy and precious thank you for hearing this prayer in the mighty and precious name of jesus christ amen i want to teach you three simple words today three simple words to speak against your problems against whatever is bothering you or weighing you down [Music] in fact use these three simple words against the devil full stop and these words are no matter what no matter what the devil tries the spirit of the lord shall lift up a standard against him no matter what my emotions say the joy of the lord is my strength i have been given peace beyond understanding no matter what the doctor said by his stripes i am healed no matter what your stepmother or your stepfather did god says in isaiah 54 verse 10 though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed says the lord who has compassion on you no matter what your supervisor said your colleague your peer or your teacher no matter what they said the lord said you are the head and not the tale and you shall only go up and not down so often too often we invite negative things into our circumstances because of what we say but i want to encourage you to say something against the attacks of the devil speak against that stronghold speak against your situation and don't speak in vain don't speak empty affirmations speak against everything that is against god's will in your life no matter what it is that you face there is a verse there is a promise that you can hold on to if the problem is to do with addiction jesus christ is well able to set you free no matter what because first corinthians 10 verse 13 says no temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man but god is faithful and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape that you may be able to endure it if the problem is in your marriage well god is capable of healing your marriage no matter what because the bible says in mark 10 verse 9 therefore what god has joined together let no one separate no one means neither you or your other half or anyone outside the marriage god is capable of healing whatever is broken in your life he is capable of doing wonders but you also have to speak over yourself too speak his word upon your life now let us pray lord jesus thank you for your precious word your word which i can use as a weapon against the enemy's attacks your word is living and powerful meaning that it can actively counter the negative situations in my life if i speak it with faith and so father i pray for relentless faith i pray for powerful strong faith king jesus the faith to be able to speak to any situation and say no matter what god will deliver me from the fowler snare and from the deadly pestilence give me grace lord jesus the grace to be able to say no matter what i will not fear the terror of the night nor the arrow that flies by day i will not fear the pestilence that stalks in darkness nor the destruction that wastes at noonday i pray for the faith to be able to stand and say no matter what i will be obedient to joshua chapter 1 verse 9 and i will say that i will be strong and courageous i will not be afraid i will not be discouraged for the lord my god will be with me wherever i go thank you for such a word that empowers me lord and father i reject the spirit of fear i denounce it i rebuke it and i cast it down in my life in jesus name my hope rests in you king jesus not in military bunkers or in weapons not in any person or establishment in this world but my hope and trust and the reason i do not fear is because of the accomplished work of jesus christ on the cross i don't fear sickness or disease i don't fear the rejection of man i don't fear any demon because second timothy 1 verse 7 says for god has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind i have nothing to fear because my stronghold is your arms lord jesus my fortress is in jesus my bunker is in psalm 91 verses 1 and 2. he who dwells in the shelter of the most high will abide in the shadow of the almighty i will say to the lord he is my refuge and my fortress my god in whom i will trust in you and in you alone king jesus can i truly say i have victory [Music] it's because of your power that i am able to speak against any negative circumstances and declare victory it's because of the lord that i can say no matter what any principality or ruler of darkness may try i am more than a conqueror i am covered by the blood of jesus christ you are ever faithful lord jesus and no matter what comes in this world your word is true and you are a good god no matter what i face in this world i claim psalm 23 verse 6 over my life surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever you are well able to make straight everything that is crooked before me you are well able master to make a way where there seems to be no way are well able to make me whole to mend me where i am broken to lift me when i am down and to be a safe bridge over troubled water for this reason master i declare isaiah chapter 25 verse 1 o lord you are my god i will exalt you i will praise your name for you have done wonderful things plans formed of old faithful and sure [Music] i declare psalm 28 verse 7 the lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusts in him and he helps me my heart leaps for joy and with my song i praise him i thank you for listening to my prayer lord i glorify your name and i give you all the honor in the mighty name of jesus christ my lord and savior i pray amen how do you find peace and joy in a world filled with struggle how do you find peace and joy in a world where many people's daily lives can be marred by conflict and turmoil well there is an answer there is a savior called jesus christ a provider of peace peace that surpasses all understanding he is a divine supplier of joy joy unspeakable now what you and i have to do is to choose to believe in him choose to accept him we need to make the choice to allow the peace of god to infiltrate our hearts and minds and we do this by deciding to run to god we have to choose to trust in him no matter what no matter what others say no matter what they don't say the choice is ours jesus said in the bible peace i leave with you my peace i give to you not as the world gives do i give to you let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid therefore it's up to us to choose whether or not we accept the peace that jesus christ gives us we find peace and joy by choosing to pray in all that we face instead of letting yourself get anxious i encourage you to choose faith over fear choose not to stress but to believe that god is always with us and he is always in control [Music] dear friends we can choose to have peace by setting our minds and our thoughts on those things that are true and right on those things that are above and not on this earth a few days rest a vacation time alone or music will not give us lasting peace all of that will not give us peace in the midst of a storm but when we set our minds on jesus and when we set our minds on the word then we'll truly understand that the bible says in isaiah 26 3 you will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on you because he trusts in you don't you desire perfect peace and the bible says you will keep him it's a state of constant peace meaning during seasons of pain god will keep you in a state of perfect peace during stormy seasons where the clouds are gray and there seems to be no sunshine ahead god will keep you in perfect peace so i encourage you to keep your mind fixed on the one who is the true source of peace jesus christ now let us pray my dear lord and savior i know that in whatever i face whatever challenge is presented before me not only are you my good shepherd but you are my peace my joy and my refuge in mark chapter 4 verse 39 your word says then he arose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea peace be still and the wind ceased and there was a great calm rebuke the storms in my life jesus those storms that come only to discourage me those storms that come only to disturb i ask that you lord in your mighty power arise and rebuke those attacks as you speak the words peace be still i now declare a great calm over my life and my family the wind has ceased the disruption has ceased no more turmoil and unrest because jesus christ has promised me peace he has promised me to be anxious for nothing and so i call on your name lord i come to you with praise on my lips i come to you with an expectant heart i say that you are holy jesus you are majestic deserving of all praise your name is worthy to be reverenced and adored your name alone is higher than every other name so today i do call on the one who is the lord of lords jesus christ the living son of god proverbs 16 7 says when a man's ways please the lord he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him i pray that my ways would please you jesus so that even my enemies even those who oppose me those who don't like me will have no choice but to bow down to your word and be at peace with me because my ways please you i am chasing after you because you offer a peace that is lasting you offer a peace that makes me confident you offer what is real and what is true peace and joy your word lord jesus fills me with deep assurance in the midst of all that i may face your word brings peace to my life because it says the lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace numbers chapter 6 verse 26 i am persuaded that nothing in my past present or future nothing in the kingdom of darkness or here on earth can steal your peace or joy from me when i constantly abide under your shadow remove that which wishes to rise and choke out your peace out of my life remove that which wishes to rise and disrupt the joy you have given me instead i only welcome your presence i only welcome your spirit which brings wise counsel divine comfort and real freedom from bondage i am blessed because i can declare psalm 55 verse 18 he has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me for there were many against me [Music] i am blessed because i can declare romans 16 verse 20 which says and the god of peace will crush satan under your feet shortly the grace of our lord jesus christ be with you i come into agreement with your word the word of the lord which gives me strength and confidence indeed i will crush the devil under my feet because of the awesome peace from my lord jesus christ indeed the lord has redeemed my soul in peace from all who stood against me i am of good cheer because nothing is too much for me to bear as i am in christ nothing can make me shake or leave me trembling because my god is a very present help in times of trouble may the holy spirit continue to remind me that i am not alone when i face adversity when the storms of life come along i can run to jesus christ who will offer me shelter and be my deliverer be blessed and glorified in jesus mighty name i pray amen [Music] grace grace to me is being gifted with something that you cannot earn or pay for grace is god giving us what we do not deserve and i wonder how many of us really understand the magnitude and wonder of god's grace his amazing grace the grace of the lord is something we should never take for granted and so beloved personally i think of his grace over my life his goodness and mercy all of which are totally undeserved but he still freely gives all i can say is thank you lord jesus christ it's by his grace that i am here today it's by the grace of jesus christ that i am in good health i haven't done anything to deserve it i've done nothing to be worthy of such favor but in his mercy in his love and by his grace i have strength in my body i have breath in my lungs it's by god's grace that i am filled with joy and hope it's by god's grace that i have peace in my heart i am grateful to the lord because if it had not been for his grace and mercy things could so easily have been tragic for me things could have so easily gone horribly wrong but in his goodness he made my crooked places straight he made a way for me when my back was against the wall i am amazed by the grace of god as i look back over my life as i look at some of the bad decisions i made some of the mistakes i made god held me and he kept me it's by his grace that nothing destroyed me it can only be his goodness that kept me from losing my mind so allow me at this moment to just praise him equally as you listen can you honestly look back at your life and not praise him look at where he brought you from look at how many times he saved you look at all the times he forgave you we need to thank him and appreciate his goodness we all have a story we all have a past yet we all have been given amazing grace i believe that his grace should also be the reason we have boldness to proclaim the gospel to the world the bible says in second timothy 1 verse 8 to 9 therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our lord nor of me his prisoner but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of god who saved us and called us to a holy calling not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace which he gave us in christ jesus before the ages began let us pray my dearest savior and lord the king of kings the lord of lords jesus christ i thank you for your grace your amazing grace that has been so good to me your grace and love is what has kept me your grace toward me is unmerited i do not deserve it but yes you gave it to me you gave it to me in abundance and i thank you lord there is nothing that i could possibly do or offer to earn your love and favor but father you have been so kind to me you have been ever so faithful nonetheless your word says my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness thank you lord jesus because of your grace i lack for nothing because even when i am weak i am strong in you lord i stand on your word and hebrews 4 verse 16 a verse that says let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need may your grace and mercy continue to surround me and lead me [Music] it's by your grace lord that i am blessed when i come in and blessed when i go out so i ask that you may stand with me and stand by my side lead me to walk with discernment and diligence in this world lead me to walk by faith and not by sight holy spirit please encircle me comfort me and hold me safe and secure in your arms help me to be bold if you are on my side then i can declare that i will not be crushed by fear and anxiety if you are with me then i can declare peace in my heart and mind i look to you as the rock of my life my fortress my strong tower and my strength when i am weak you are a sovereign god who has charge over my life and you are a god who is faithful to deliver those who trust you your word says a thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand but it shall not come near you i believe this i believe that nothing no evil no darkness shall come near me because of you because of your amazing grace so i look to you a mighty god who moves mountains a god who breaks down every barrier a god who can crush the devil and remove every obstacle in my life i have the confidence that if i remain in your presence you will help me to let go of all my worries and stress help me to let go of everything i cannot control i may be limited but you are not you are a god who is in control i believe in your word which says and my god will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in christ jesus i stand on your word that says surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever [Music] thank you for the promises in your word promises that fill me with hope and remind me of your love the more i read your word the more my faith grows the more confidence i have the more strength i have to press forward isaiah 40 verse 31 says those who wait on the lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings like eagles they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not faint i pray that you renew my strength lord renew my faith and belief so that i might face today in the authority of your word you are all-powerful lord jesus and you are a god who will never leave us nor forsake us you are holy and worthy to be praised thank you for listening to my prayer in jesus name i pray amen wherever you live whatever type of property you have on the exterior your home is being exposed to a lot of things your home is exposed to the rain and to the sunshine it is exposed to potential floods perhaps blizzards or even heatwave your homes are exposed to storms and some are even exposed to tornadoes or hurricanes and the thing is all is well as long as you have the confidence that a your house is built to withstand the weather and the extreme seasons of nature and b all is well as long as internally you don't see any leaks and you don't see any cracks in the ceiling or in the walls when we seek refuge and shelter from the weather most of us feel safe in our homes that is because we trust that they are purpose built to withstand the different seasons we might not have been there when the house was built from scratch but nonetheless we believe that the foundation is deep enough we believe that the structure is solid enough we believe that the materials used are adequate and suitable now the bible says in ephesians 6 12 for we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities against powers against the rulers of the darkness of this world against spiritual wickedness in high places since we as children of god do not wrestle against flesh and blood then this means that we should be guarding and protecting our homes in the spiritual realm we should be seeking protection from jesus christ over our homes so that in the spiritual realm we have a strong foundation so that we have a strong structure that is reinforced by faith and by the holy spirit as children of god we should really be making sure that our homes are fortified by the mighty blood of jesus so that if like ephesians 6 12 says if we wrestle not against flesh and blood then we must build our homes on jesus christ the one who was forever victorious that way if we come up against any principalities any evil powers or any rulers of darkness then they cannot cause any damage to our homes if you didn't already know your home if left unguarded through a lack of prayer your home is then left exposed to the attacks of the enemy so i'd like to encourage you people of god to draw a line set up a supernatural perimeter around your home make a stance and send a message to the devil pray and declare that through the authority that's in the name of jesus christ devil you cannot breach the secured space that is my home through the power that's in the blood of jesus christ satan you cannot enter this perimeter through the power that's in the word of god no evil can bypass the angel of the lord that encamps around my home saints your home should be a place that is graced by god's presence always it should be a sweet place your home should be a place of prayer and together with your family your home should be a place of unity and oneness through christ don't allow cracks to appear and then just leave them unattended don't allow any leaks to interrupt the peace that god has given you if you don't have the presence of the lord the peace of the lord the joy of the lord in your home then how can you truly live in victory as a believer in jesus christ i encourage you to secure the peace in your home today secure the joy in your home today invite the holy spirit in so that he can move to bring the goodness of the lord at your residence now let us pray dear lord jesus your name is high and above all other names the name of jesus christ is high and above all principalities and all powers the name of jesus christ is high and above all the rulers of the darkness of this world and above all spiritual wickedness in high places and so i declare that my home is protected by the lord the foundation of my home is the lord god almighty the devil and his principalities and demons all have one thing in common they cannot win against the power of you god they cannot overcome the blood of jesus they cannot destroy my home because i will forever abide under the shadow of the almighty i speak the blood of jesus christ to surround and form a perimeter where i stay the devil has no power here satan has no hold and no right of entry in this home in the name of jesus i pray your word says in 2 thessalonians 3 verse 3 that the lord is faithful and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one i look to you king jesus i look to you to divinely protect the walls and structure of this home raise up a standard against the enemy king jesus may your divine strength and might be on full display i pray that you will always provide safety and relief for me and my family and even as we seek your physical protection from the storms of life we also seek your intervention in anything that may bring us harm i give you chief place in this home lord i pray that this home will be one in which the word of god is loved honored and obeyed may this home be one that is saturated with your divine presence and may it be a home in which prayer is heard often lord jesus you are very much needed at all times and in every way in this home we thank you for your heavenly protection without you there is nothing i can build nothing i can maintain or protect with my own hands and so i acknowledge that i need you i need your guidance i need your wisdom i need your holy spirit so that i will never become complacent and leave spiritual doors open that will allow the devil to enter may this home be one that only knows the glorious presence of god may this home be one that is filled by the precious holy spirit may this home be one that is soaked with your love your peace and your joy in the mighty and precious name of jesus christ i pray [Music] amen have faith have faith i really want you to hear me as i say this have faith in jesus christ have faith in god whatever you are going through however deep the waters however big the giant is stand and have faith in the one who speaks and the wind obeys have faith in the one who speaks and creates have faith in the one whose breath has eternal life have faith in the one who speaks and breaks the grip of death have faith in jesus and by definition faith is having firm trust in god it's trusting that he is the way out it's trusting that he is a pillar of strength when you feel weak faith is you saying i am in god's hands despite what comes faith is believing that god will honor and execute his word in your hour of need to have faith is to trust in the almighty god and believe that he will come through for you in all circumstances now the thing about faith is faith becomes more defined and refined in difficult circumstances and don't be fearful and start thinking that you need faith the size of noah's ark in his teaching on faith jesus requires us to have faith as small as a mustard seed hebrews 12 verse 2 says looking unto jesus the author and finisher of our faith who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross despising the shame and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of god if you feel like your faith is inadequate then remember these two things your only requirement is to have faith the size of a mustard seed and to look to jesus as the beginning and the end of christian faith everyone has a measure of faith when they receive jesus and the bible indicates that it has to grow the increase in faith however is a personal responsibility romans 10 17 says so then faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of god the food that feeds faith is the word of god the nutrients that grow faith come from the word of god the ground for faith to thrive and grow is the word of god and you may ask why such emphasis on the word of god as a seed of faith why not worship why not fast to grow your faith well it's because the grass withers the flowers fade but the word of god stands forever according to isaiah 40 verse 8. [Music] it's because isaiah 55 11 says so shall my word be that goes forth from my mouth it shall not return to me void but it shall accomplish what i please and it shall prosper in the thing for which i sent it so people of god look to the bible and look to jesus as your source of faith now let us pray dear lord i pray that you would grow my faith although i will start with faith the size of a mustard seed may you help me to grow in belief until i have faith that can move mountains until i have faith that is unshakable because it is anchored in him who lives forever increase my faith lord feed me with your word so that whatever is lacking in my spirit will be filled by you let my faith become clearer may it become more defined let my faith go beyond the saving faith when i gave my life to you but let it be strong and assured let it be firm faith so that when i face the enemy i can declare the words of david in first samuel 17 14 where he said you come to me with a sword with a spear and with a javelin but i come to you in the name of the lord of hosts i pray that you would give me faith that endures and overcomes sickness because your word says by his stripes we are healed i pray for faith that can overcome heartbreak because the word assures me that i will receive mercy and find grace to help me in my time of need lord jesus may i find the strength to let go and move on from the past because i am confident and trusting in your ability to lead me into a better and brighter future i believe lord that only you can fully repair a broken heart you can renew a sinful mind and save a lost soul that is why i surrender only to you may you fill every void that may unsettle and trouble my heart i pray that i may embrace a future that is in your hands even though my eyes may not be able to see i trust you king jesus to give me a future that is filled with open doors a future filled with love and goodness for me and my family with you by my side i trust and believe that i have a safe place i have a god who rescues and defends by faith i receive the joy that comes only from you by faith i receive healing in your presence by faith i receive peace in my mind peace in my home and peace within my family i receive restoration in your presence i declare that i am made whole again in your presence there is no one comparable to you o god and for this reason i bow and submit to you i bow down and confess that you are lord and i need you in my life i need you to continue to be a light unto my path king jesus chase away every dark thing and destroy the attacks of the enemy i praise you for your unconditional love a love that always protects a love that leads and guides a love that always provides a love that always forgives i praise you for your consistency may your name always be praised for such love whenever i need you you are always there for me whenever i call on your name you always answer thank you for your goodness i bless your name i say you are holy and precious thank you for hearing this prayer in the mighty and precious name of jesus christ in [Music] i want to teach you three simple words today three simple words to speak against your problems

peace jesus christ now let us pray my dear lord and savior i know that in whatever i face whatever challenge is presented before me not only are you my good shepherd but you are my peace my joy and my refuge in mark chapter 4 verse 39 your word says then he arose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea peace be still and the wind ceased and there was a great calm rebuke the storms in my life jesus those storms that come only to discourage me those storms that come only to disturb i ask that you lord in your mighty power arise and rebuke those attacks as you speak the words peace be still i now declare a great calm over my life and my family the wind has ceased the disruption has ceased no more turmoil and unrest because jesus christ has promised me peace he has promised me to be anxious for nothing and so i call on your name lord i come to you with praise on my lips i come to you with an expectant heart [Music] i say that you are holy jesus you are majestic deserving of all praise your name is worthy to be reverenced and adored your name alone is higher than every other name so today i do call on the one who is the lord of lords jesus christ the living son of god proverbs 16 7 says when a man's ways please the lord he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him i pray that my ways would please you jesus so that even my enemies even those who oppose me those who don't like me will have no choice but to bow down to your word and be at peace with me because my ways please you i am chasing after you because you offer a peace that is lasting you offer a peace that makes me confident you offer what is real and what is true peace and joy your word lord jesus fills me with deep assurance in the midst of all that i may face your word brings peace to my life because it says the lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace numbers chapter 6 verse 26 i am persuaded that nothing in my past present or future nothing in the kingdom of darkness or here on earth can steal your peace or joy from me when i constantly abide under your shadow remove that which wishes to rise and choke out your peace out of my life remove that which wishes to rise and disrupt the joy you have given me instead i only welcome your presence i only welcome your spirit which brings wise counsel divine comfort and real freedom from bondage i am blessed because i can declare psalm 55 verse 18 he has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me for there were many against me i am blessed because i can declare romans 16 verse 20 which says and the god of peace will crush satan under your feet shortly the grace of our lord jesus christ be with you i come into agreement with your word the word of the lord which gives me strength and confidence indeed i will crush the devil under my feet because of the awesome peace from my lord jesus christ indeed the lord has redeemed my soul in peace from all who stood against me i am of good cheer because nothing is too much for me to bear as i am in christ nothing can make me shake or leave me trembling because my god is a very present help in times of trouble may the holy spirit continue to remind me that i am not alone when i face adversity when the storms of life come along i can run to jesus christ who will offer me shelter and be my deliverer be blessed and glorified in jesus mighty name i pray amen grace grace to me is being gifted with something that you cannot earn or pay for grace is god giving us what we do not deserve and i wonder how many of us really understand the magnitude and wonder of god's grace his amazing grace the grace of the lord is something we should never take for granted and so beloved personally i think of his grace over my life his goodness and mercy all of which are totally undeserved but he still freely gives all i can say is thank you lord jesus christ it's by his grace that i am here today it's by the grace of jesus christ that i am in good health i haven't done anything to deserve it i've done nothing to be worthy of such favor but in his mercy in his love and by his grace i have strength in my body i have breath in my lungs it's by god's grace that i am filled with joy and hope it's by god's grace that i have peace in my heart i am grateful to the lord because if it had not been for his grace and mercy things could so easily have been tragic for me things could have so easily gone horribly wrong but in his goodness he made my crooked places straight he made a way for me when my back was against the wall [Music] i am amazed by the grace of god as i look back over my life as i look at some of the bad decisions i made some of the mistakes i made god held me and he kept me it's by his grace that nothing destroyed me it can only be his goodness that kept me from losing my mind so allow me at this moment to just praise him equally as you listen can you honestly look back at your life and not praise him look at where he brought you from look at how many times he saved you look at all the times he forgave you we need to thank him and appreciate his goodness we all have a story we all have a past yet we all have been given amazing grace [Music] i believe that his grace should also be the reason we have boldness to proclaim the gospel to the world the bible says in 2 timothy 1 verse 8 to 9 therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our lord nor of me his prisoner but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of god who saved us and called us to a holy calling not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace which he gave us in christ jesus before the ages began let us pray my dearest savior and lord the king of kings the lord of lords jesus christ i thank you for your grace your amazing grace that has been so good to me your grace and love is what has kept me your grace toward me is unmerited i do not deserve it but yes you gave it to me you gave it to me in abundance and i thank you lord there is nothing that i could possibly do or offer to earn your love and favor but father you have been so kind to me you have been ever so faithful nonetheless your word says my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness thank you lord jesus because of your grace i lack for nothing because even when i am weak i am strong in you lord [Music] i stand on your word and hebrews 4 verse 16 a verse that says let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need may your grace and mercy continue to surround me and lead me it's by your grace lord that i am blessed when i come in and blessed when i go out so i ask that you may stand with me and stand by my side [Music] lead me to walk with discernment and diligence in this world lead me to walk by faith and not by sight holy spirit please encircle me comfort me and hold me safe and secure in your arms help me to be bold if you are on my side then i can declare that i will not be crushed by fear and anxiety if you are with me then i can declare peace in my heart and mind i look to you as the rock of my life my fortress my strong tower and my strength when i am weak you are a sovereign god who has charge over my life and you are a god who is faithful to deliver those who trust you your word says a thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand but it shall not come near you i believe this i believe that nothing no evil no darkness shall come near me because of you because of your amazing grace so i look to you a mighty god who moves mountains a god who breaks down every barrier a god who can crush the devil and remove every obstacle in my life i have the confidence that if i remain in your presence you will help me to let go of all my worries and stress help me to let go of everything i cannot control i may be limited but you are not you are a god who is in control i believe in your word which says and my god will meet all your needs according to the riches of his glory in christ jesus i stand on your word that says surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life and i will dwell in the house of the lord forever thank you for the promises in your word promises that fill me with hope and remind me of your love [Music] the more i read your word the more my faith grows the more confidence i have the more strength i have to press forward isaiah 40 31 says those who wait on the lord shall renew their strength they shall mount up with wings like eagles they shall run and not be weary they shall walk and not fade i pray that you renew my strength lord renew my faith and believe so that i might face today in the authority of your word you are all-powerful lord jesus and you are a god who will never leave us nor forsake us you are holy and worthy to be praised thank you for listening to my prayer in jesus name i pray amen [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] so [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you
