in eternity you are an almighty god and your power is unmatched you can calm even the seas and the winds and we give you thanks for your unending love lord we submit to you we surrender all we surrender knowing that you care for us so we pray that you would calm every troubled heart listening i pray that you will direct my paths as i learn to depend wholly on you we are seeking your peace in our lives i pray that nothing would take away the peace of mind you've blessed us with let nothing whether it's financial work related or linked to friends or family let nothing in this world steal our joy and peace we need the peace that you have promised in philippians 4 verse 6 to 7 which says do not be anxious about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to god and the peace of god which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in christ jesus father we know and trust that you are working out all

encounter i pray that you will guard our hearts and minds and protect us from the destructive power of worry remove all fear and doubts and fill us with joy and thanksgiving increase our faith as we stand on psalms 55 22 which says cast your cares on the lord and he will sustain you he will never let the righteous be shaken you are a wonderful god who will sustain us in the middle of every challenge it's only your everlasting peace that has the power to keep us from succumbing to the cares and anxieties of this world only your peace can calm our spirits and comfort us when everything

open our lives to be filled with your goodness love and joy i will forever trust in your love wisdom and power thank you for your comfort assurance and peace it's in the mighty name of jesus christ our lord that we pray amen [Music] hebrews chapter 12 verse 2 reads 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 we should always have our eyes fixed on jesus christ he's the only one worthy of our devotion he's the only one worthy of our praise and adoration he's the only one who should be right at the center right at the top of our priorities and i want to encourage you today to pray at a higher level to praise and worship god at a deeper level and to chase him with an urgency to have a fire to have a hunger and thirst in your soul to develop a strong intimate relationship with jesus christ in the book of matthew 16 verse 24 jesus was with his disciples when he said the words if anyone desires to come after me let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me now let me ask you do you have a desire to go after jesus do you have the desire to deny yourself of the temporary pleasures of this world examine your heart and ask yourself am i willing to take up my cross and follow jesus now the cross has never been meant to symbolize something easy or simple it symbolizes a place of pain a place of purging or affliction but it also symbolizes salvation and hope it symbolizes the love of jesus and the power of his blood the cross is symbolic of a place where flesh dies where sin is defeated and christ wins and so we need to be mindful of the words of jesus deny yourself take up your cross and follow jesus now let us pray father your word in matthew 21 verse 22 says and whatever things you ask in prayer believing you will receive i thank you for such a promise a promise that you god almighty the eternal father will answer my prayers if i ask and believe i am thankful that you are an affectionate god a god who has infinite wisdom and power i am grateful that in all your power and glory you can still take the time to hear and listen to my prayers for this privilege i will rejoice i thank you lord jesus for all that you do for the goodness and mercy you have shown me thank you for all that you do from giving me health giving me the strength to work and for protecting my family you are a god who is so good and so caring you have numbered the hairs on my head because you love me i thank you for loving me so strongly lord i long to abide and dwell in your presence i desire to have close communion with you to be in close fellowship with you lord because it's only in you that i can be revived

know lord jesus that you work within my circumstances you work even within the troubles i face and you deliver me i rejoice today because of you my father you are in absolute control of everything every aspect of my life is within your control so i choose to abide in you where i'm safe and secure in your presence there's nothing that takes place in my life that you my god have not allowed to

continue to lead me father because on my own i am lost and i will not always make the right decisions but if you are directing my steps i know that your amazing grace and your favor will surround me your love will cause things to work out in my favor and to my advantage and so i acknowledge that i need your wisdom lord i want to take this time to offer up praises and thanksgiving to you thank you for hearing my prayer in the name of jesus christ i pray amen jeremiah 33 verse 3 says call to me and i will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know psalms 50 verse 15 the bible says call on me in the day of trouble i will deliver you and you will honor me and so i want to encourage you when you look at god's word when you look at his promises he says trust me in your times of trouble and i will rescue you he says abide in me and i will restore you he says come to me all who are weary and heavy laden and i will give you rest so let your hope be found in god he has the perfect solution each and every time so call on him whether it's day or night and so with this understanding let us pray our heavenly father my lord and savior jesus christ my redeemer and the good shepherd i come before you today with a humble heart and my faith lifted up your name is set high above all other names thank you for your amazing and endless love lord i praise your holy name today and i acknowledge that you alone are god yours is the power and the glory and the honor thank you father because you are faithful to equip me with all that i need you are faithful to have given me the resources that i need to walk with boldness and authority in this life your wisdom is unparalleled and your power is unmatched you are a god who provides us with all that we need with more than we need whether it's healing restoration protection or peace we look only to you lord jesus i pray for every person under the sound of my voice for the one who seeks healing today may they find healing in your arms for the person who is feeling empty may they find wholeness in your presence for the one who feels lost father i pray that they might find your word to be a lamp unto their feet and for those who have suffered heartbreak or loss i pray that your love and your compassion may fill them may your love overwhelm and overtake them lord be praised king jesus we call upon the holy spirit and we invite him into our lives into our hearts and our homes may he give us the strength required for each day may the holy spirit lead us into a future that is rooted in christ a future that is in your arms help us holy spirit so that we can let go and move on from a past of sin and hurt lead us to christ fix our eyes on the sacrifice he made at the cross on calvary turn our hearts to desire the things of god i pray that you would renew repair and revive our hearts our minds and souls give us peace where there is unrest give us closure where we need closure give us strength in those areas that we're weak feel the voids that may unsettle our hearts remove any and every scar from any painful situation we have experienced may we learn the lessons you wished for us to learn and to move on to become better believers in your kingdom and even as i pray in this moment lord i declare your word which tells me that greater is he who is in me than he who is in the world meaning that you king jesus have placed within me the strength to overcome adversity the strength to overcome the devil and for that i rejoice and i thank you lord the power to walk in victory the power to defeat sin it all comes from you so i bow down today i humble myself and surrender all that i am to you i trust and believe that you will liberate me you will redeem me and you will make me whole again i thank you for such love and mercy you pick me up each time that i have fallen you give me grace upon grace even when you know what all of my limitations and inabilities are you know where i fall short and you know all of my weaknesses so i pray that through the power of the holy spirit you would give me the strength i need grant me the grace i need to fulfill your will for my life and all that you would have me to do thank you for hearing my prayer king jesus amen psalm 73 verse 26 says my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever other translations say but god is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever i thank god for scriptures like these because just like me i'm sure each of us when we've gone through certain things in life when we faced difficulties or challenges if you're anything like me then you've gone through that situation trying to figure out exactly how will this work out for my good we as people often want all of the details we often want to know lord if you're going to make a way out for me how exactly are you going to do it at precisely what time will you come to be my rescue how long will i have to go through this before things actually start turning around for my good and we do this because naturally as people we don't want our flesh or our heart to fail we instead want to be strong to be able however the mistake in wanting to know all of the details and the mistake in wanting to be strong and able is that you are relying on yourself instead of jesus christ the emphasis should be on the lord not on you knowing everything trusting in the lord means that i may not know all of the details but one thing that i do know is that my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever i may not understand everything things may not make sense but i do know that my heart and my flesh may fail but god is the rock and strength of my heart and portion forever think of it as though you are on a boat and on this boat you are on the wave called life this wave has its ups and downs there are moments where the sun is out and everything is peaceful however there are other moments where you encounter a storm now during a storm the unfortunate thing with many believers is that we become so fixated on the rain on the thunder and lightning that we forget who's on the boat with us we forget that the one who is on the boat with us will never fail we often forget during a storm that god is the strength of our hearts and our portion forever and so i would like to encourage you to change your mindset shift your perspective and activate your faith you may not have all the answers in fact you may have more questions than answers but hold on to psalm 73 26 this is the only answer you need because the bible says my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever let god be your strength let him be the calm in your storm let him be the peace in your heart now let us pray lord jesus may you get all the glory in my life teach me to be more patient teach me lord to be more reliant and trusting in you i believe that when i face difficulties and when i face challenges in life you will be my rescue i believe that when i am in deep waters you will stay true to your word in isaiah 43 verse 2 which says when you pass through the waters i will be with you and through the rivers they shall not overwhelm you when you walk through fire you shall not be burned and the flame shall not consume you holy spirit help me and teach me so that before i go anywhere else searching for solutions before i look anywhere else for answers let me seek the counsel of the lord let me search the word of god first because in jesus i have a god who moves mountains and speaks calm to every storm in jesus i have a god who performs miracles a god who can make a way where there seems to be no way [Music] lord your word says in psalm 73 verse 27 to 28 for behold those who are far from you shall perish you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you but for me it is good to be near god i have made the lord god my refuge that i may tell of all your works lord it is good for me to draw near to you it's good for me to make you my refuge because in you i will find strength in you i will find preservation and comfort so i declare in the name of jesus christ that i am equipped with everything i need to survive this storm lord jesus you will never give me more than i can bear and you have already made a way to victory available to me [Music] so i declare that in the name of jesus christ i am more than a conqueror i will overcome this test this difficulty or this trial in my life although my physical eyes might not see it yet i believe that in you lord jesus i will have victory although my heart and flesh may fail i declare god's word which says that i have overcome by the blood of the lamb and by the word of my testimony i confess and declare that there is power in the blood of jesus and so i ask father that you go before me lord although i may face things that leave me with more questions than answers i will continue to look to you a god who has said in deuteronomy 31 verse 8 it is the lord who goes before you he will be with you he will not leave you or forsake you do not fear or be dismayed lord jesus i will continue to trust in you to trust in your word your will is divine and it overrules my own will your plans are just and they are better than anything i could ever imagine and so i bless your name i relinquish all control and give you the glory honor and praise forevermore in jesus name i pray [Music] amen i decree and declare that it is well with my soul it is well within me i confess that all is well in my life and in my home may the holy spirit grant me boldness and courage may he help me to be strong and firm in faith i pray that i will not be found to be fearful in any area of my life i pray that i will not be a believer who is oppressed by worry by anxiety or stress in jesus name father i claim your word and say surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life i have victory in the name of jesus victory over any evil victory over every goliath i declare that i have victory over the obstacles set by the enemy through the power that's in the blood of the lamb power that allows me to overcome daily to be blessed daily to wake up in your grace and mercies each day i am thankful that you are an affectionate god a god who has infinite wisdom and power i am grateful that in all your power and glory you can still take the time to hear and listen to my prayers for this privilege i will rejoice i thank you lord jesus for all that you do for the goodness and mercy you have shown me thank you for all that you do from giving me health giving me the strength to work and for protecting my family you are a god who is so good and so caring you have numbered the hairs on my head because you love me i thank you for loving me so strongly lord i long to abide and dwell in your presence i desire to have close communion with you to be in close fellowship with you lord because it's only in you that i can be revived and refreshed in my soul lord jesus help us and strengthen each person who is listening in agreement let us not

searching for solutions before i look anywhere else for answers let me seek the counsel of the lord let me search the word of god first because in jesus i have a god who moves mountains and speaks calm to every storm in jesus i have a god who performs miracles a god who can make a way where there seems to be no way lord your word says in psalm 73 verse 27-28 for behold those who are far from you shall perish you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you but for me it is good to be near god i have made the lord god my refuge that i may tell of all your works lord it is good for me to draw near to you it's good for me to make you my refuge because in you i will find strength in you i will find preservation and comfort so i declare in the name of jesus christ that i am equipped with everything i need to survive this storm lord jesus you will never give me more than i can bear and you have already made a way to victory available to me so i declare that in the name of jesus christ i am more than a conqueror i will overcome this test this difficulty or this trial in my life although my physical eyes might not see it yet i believe that in you lord jesus i will have victory although my heart and flesh may fail i declare god's word which says that i have overcome by the blood of the lamb and by the word of my testimony i confess and declare that there is power in the blood of jesus and so i ask father that you go before me lord although i may face things that leave me with more questions than answers i will continue to look to you a god who has said in deuteronomy 31 verse 8 it is the lord who goes before you he will be with you he will not leave you or forsake you do not fear or be dismayed lord jesus i will continue to trust in you to trust in your word your

you for loving me so strongly lord i long to abide and dwell in your presence i desire to have close communion with you to be in close fellowship with you lord because it's only in you that i can be revived and refreshed in my soul lord jesus help us and strengthen each person who is listening in agreement let us not be overwhelmed by any challenges mishaps adversities afflictions or difficulties give us divine peace deep within our souls help us not to be restless holy ghost help us not to fear even when things around us appear to be spiraling out of control even though life may bring its challenges we declare that jesus christ will see us through in john 14 verse 1 your word says do not let your hearts be trouble you believe in god believe also in me you said these words to your disciples when they were worried and when they were confused you reassured them and today we take a hold of your words by faith and declare that our hearts will not be troubled in jesus name you lord have told us through your word not to give in to fear and worry and not to allow current events to trouble our spirits you have given us hope because you promise to prepare a place for us in heaven and you will return to take us with you and rejoice in eternity you are an almighty god and your power is unmatched you can calm even the seas and the winds and we give you thanks for your unending love [Music] lord we submit to you we surrender all we surrender knowing that you care for us so we pray that you would calm every troubled heart listening i pray that you will direct my paths as i learn to depend wholly on you we are seeking your peace in our lives i pray that nothing would take away the peace of mind you've blessed us with let nothing whether it's financial work related or linked to friends or family let nothing in this world steal our joy and peace we need the peace that you have promised in philippians 4 verse 6 to 7 which says do not be anxious about anything but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to god and the peace of god which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in christ jesus father we know and trust that you are working out all things for our good so we give you thanks in every situation remove those things that cause us to worry and help us to accept the things that we cannot change grant us serenity amid any trouble we encounter i pray that you will guard our hearts and minds and protect us from the destructive power of worry remove all fear and doubts and fill us with joy and thanksgiving increase our faith as we stand on psalms 55 22 which says cast your cares on the lord and he will sustain you he will never let the righteous be shaken you are a wonderful god who will sustain us in the middle of every challenge it's only your everlasting peace that has the power to keep us from succumbing to the cares and anxieties of this world only your peace can calm our spirits and comfort us when everything around frustrates only your peace has the power to protect our hearts and minds while you keep us calm and settled during storms we praise you

cares and anxieties are surrendered to you lord and we open our lives to be filled with your goodness love and joy i will forever trust in your love wisdom and power [Music] thank you for your comfort assurance and peace it's in the mighty name of jesus christ our lord that we pray amen [Music] hebrews chapter 12 verse 2 reads 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 we should always have our eyes fixed on jesus christ he's the only one worthy of our devotion he's the only one worthy of our praise and adoration he's the only one who should be right at the center right at the top of our priorities and i want to encourage you today to pray at a higher level to praise and worship god at a deeper level and to chase him with an urgency to have a fire to have a hunger and thirst in your soul to develop a strong intimate relationship with jesus christ in the book of matthew chapter 16 verse 24 jesus was with his disciples when he said the words if anyone desires to come after me let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me now let me ask you do you have a desire to go after jesus do you have the desire to deny yourself of the temporary pleasures of this world [Music] examine your heart and ask yourself am i willing to take up my cross and follow jesus now the cross has never been meant to symbolize something easy or simple it symbolizes a place of pain a place of purging or affliction but it also symbolizes salvation and hope it symbolizes the love of jesus and the power of his blood the cross is symbolic of a place where flesh dies where sin is defeated and christ wins and so we need to be mindful of the words of jesus deny yourself take up your cross and follow jesus now let us pray father your word in matthew 21 verse 22 says and whatever things you ask in prayer believing you will receive i thank you for such a promise a promise that you god almighty the eternal father will answer my prayers if i ask and believe i am thankful that you are an affectionate god a god who has infinite wisdom and power i

and mercy you have shown me thank you for all that you do from giving me health giving me the strength to work and for protecting my family you are a god who is so good and so caring you have numbered

which is humble and thankful for all that you have done i know lord jesus that you work within my circumstances you work even within the troubles i face and you deliver me i rejoice today because of you my father you are in absolute control of everything every aspect of my life is within your control so i choose to abide in you where i'm safe and secure in your presence there's nothing that takes place in my life that you my god have not allowed to happen i find strength in the understanding that the most high god is working all things together for my good i submit to your will king jesus i yield to all of your ways although i may not know each and every detail about what will happen tomorrow i will trust you my king i will trust you with all my heart and i choose not to lean on my own

and evil thing within me within my character remove every sinful behavior and every sinful desire that is not pleasing to you place in me a spirit that is humble a spirit that is filled with gratitude

overcome the world and as your child as a believer who has been washed cleansed and saved by your precious blood i will take heart even if i face difficulty or disappointments i have already overcome because of you lord so i pray that you continue to lead me father because on my own i am lost and i will not always make the right decisions but if you are directing my steps i know that your amazing grace and your favor will surround me your love will cause things to work out in my favor and to my advantage and so i acknowledge that i need your wisdom lord i want to take this time to offer up praises and thanksgiving to you [Music] thank you for hearing my prayer in the name of jesus christ i pray amen jeremiah 33 verse 3 says call to me and i will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know psalms 50 verse 15 the bible says call on me in the day of trouble i will deliver you and you will honor me and so i want to encourage you when you look at god's word when you look at his promises he says trust me in your times of trouble and i will rescue you he says abide in me and i will restore you he says come to me all who are weary and heavy laden and i will give you rest so let your hope be found in god he has the perfect solution each and every time so call on him whether it's day or night and so with this understanding let us pray [Music] our heavenly father my lord and savior jesus christ my redeemer and the good shepherd i come before you today with a humble heart and my faith lifted up your name is set high above all other names thank you for your amazing and endless love lord [Music] i praise your holy name today and i acknowledge that you alone are god yours is the power and the glory and the honor [Music] thank you father because you are faithful to equip me with all that i need you are faithful to have given me the resources that i need to walk with boldness and authority in this life your wisdom is unparalleled and your power is unmatched you are a god who provides us with all that we need with more than we need whether it's healing restoration protection or peace we look only to you lord jesus i pray for every person under the sound of my voice for the one who seeks healing today may they find healing in your arms for the person who is feeling empty may they find wholeness in your presence for the one who feels lost father i pray that they might find your word to be a lamp unto their feet [Music] and for those who have suffered heartbreak or loss i pray that your love and your compassion may fill them may your love overwhelm and overtake them lord be praised king jesus [Music] we call upon the holy spirit and we invite him into our lives into our hearts and our homes may he give us the strength required for each day may the holy spirit lead us into a future that is rooted in christ a future that is in your arms help us holy spirit so that we can let go and move on from a past of sin and hurt lead us to christ fix our eyes on the sacrifice he made at the cross on calvary turn our hearts to desire the things of god i pray that you would renew repair and revive our hearts our minds and souls give us peace where there is unrest give us closure where we need closure give us strength in those areas that we're weak feel the voids that may unsettle our hearts remove any and every scar from any painful situation we have experienced may we learn the lessons you wished for us to learn and to move on to become better believers in your kingdom and even as i pray in this moment lord i declare your word which tells me that greater is he who is in me than he who is in the world meaning that you king jesus have placed within me the strength to overcome adversity the strength to overcome the devil and for that i rejoice and i thank you lord the power to walk in victory the power to defeat sin it all comes from you so i bow down today i humble myself and surrender all that i am to you i trust and believe that you will liberate me you will redeem me and you will make me whole again i thank you for such love and mercy you pick me up each time that i have fallen you give me grace upon grace even when you know what all of my limitations and inabilities are you know where i fall short and you know all of my weaknesses so i pray that through the power of the holy spirit you would give me the strength i need grant me the grace i need to fulfill your will for my life and all that you would have me to do thank you for hearing my prayer king jesus amen psalm 73 verse 26 says my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever other translations say but god is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever i thank god for scriptures like these because just like me i'm sure each of us when we've gone through certain things in life when we faced difficulties or challenges if you're anything like me then you've gone through that situation trying to figure out exactly how will this work out for my good we as people often want all of the details we often want to know lord if you're going to make a way out for me how exactly are you going to do it at precisely what time will you come to be my rescue how long will i have to go through this before things actually start turning around for my good and we do this because naturally as people we don't want our flesh or our heart to fail we instead want to be strong to be able however the mistake in wanting to know all of the details and the mistake in wanting to be strong and able is that you are relying on yourself instead of jesus christ the emphasis should be on the lord not on you knowing everything trusting in the lord means that i may not know all of the details but one thing that i do know is that my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever i may not understand everything things may not make sense but i do know that my heart and my flesh may fail but god is the rock and strength of my heart and portion forever think of it as though you are on a boat and on this boat you are on the wave called life this wave has its ups and downs there are moments where the sun is out and everything is peaceful however there are other moments where you encounter a storm now during a storm the unfortunate thing with many believers is that we become so fixated on the rain on the thunder and lightning that we forget who's on the boat with us we forget that the one who is on the boat with us will never fail we often forget during a storm that god is the strength of our hearts and our portion forever and so i would like to encourage you to change your mindset shift your perspective and activate your faith you may not have all the answers in fact you may have more questions than answers but hold on to psalm 73 26 this is the only answer you need because the bible says my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever let god be your strength let him be the calm in your storm let him be the peace in your heart now let us pray lord jesus may you get all the glory in my life teach me to be more patient teach me lord to be more reliant and trusting in you i believe that when i face difficulties and when i face challenges in life you will be my rescue i believe that when i am in deep waters you will stay true to your word in isaiah 43 verse 2 which says when you pass through the waters i will be with you and through the rivers they shall not overwhelm you when you walk through fire you shall not be burned and the flame shall not consume you holy spirit help me and teach me so that before i go anywhere else searching for solutions before i look anywhere else for answers let me seek the counsel of the lord let me search the word of god first because in jesus i have a god who moves mountains and speaks calm to every storm in jesus i have a god who performs miracles a god who can make a way where there seems to be no way [Music] lord your word says in psalm 73 verse 27 to 28 for behold those who are far from you shall perish you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you but for me it is good to be near god i have made the lord god my refuge that i may tell of all your works lord it is good for me to draw near to you it's good for me to make

of the details we often want to know lord if you're going to make a way out for me how exactly are you going to do it at precisely what time will you come to be my rescue how long will i have to go through this before things actually start turning around for my good and we do this because naturally as people we don't want our flesh or our heart to fail we instead want to be strong to be able however the mistake in wanting to know all of the details and the mistake in wanting to be strong and able is that you are relying on yourself instead of jesus christ the emphasis should be on the lord not on you knowing everything trusting in the lord means that i may not know all of the details but one thing that i do know is that my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever i may not understand everything things may not make sense but i do know that my heart and my flesh may fail but god is the rock and strength of my heart and portion forever think of it as though you are on a boat and on this boat you are on the wave called life this wave has its ups and downs there are moments where the sun is out and everything is peaceful however there are other moments where you encounter a storm now during a storm the unfortunate thing with many believers is that we become so fixated on the rain on the thunder and lightning that we forget who's on the boat with us we forget that the one who is on the boat with us will never fail we often forget during a storm that god is the strength of our hearts and our portion forever and so i would like to encourage you to change your mindset shift your perspective and activate your faith you may not have all the answers in fact you may have more questions than answers but hold on to psalm 73 26 this is the only answer you need because the bible says my flesh and my heart may fail but god is the strength of my heart and my portion forever let god be your strength let him be the calm in your storm let him be the peace in your heart let us pray lord jesus may you get all the glory in my life teach me to be more patient teach me lord to be more reliant and trusting in you i believe that when i face difficulties and when i face challenges in life you will be my rescue i believe that when i am in deep waters you will stay true to your word in isaiah 43 verse 2 which says when you pass through the waters i will be with you and through the rivers they shall not overwhelm you when you walk through fire you shall not be burned and the flame shall not consume you holy spirit help me and teach me so that before i go anywhere else searching for solutions before i look anywhere else for answers let me seek the counsel of the lord let me search the word of god first because in jesus i have a god who moves mountains and speaks calm to every storm in jesus i have a god who performs miracles a god who can make a way where there seems to be no way [Music] lord your word says in psalm 73 27-28 for behold those who are far from you shall perish you put an end to everyone who is unfaithful to you but for me it is good to be near god i have made the lord god my refuge that i may tell of all your works lord it is good for me to draw near to you [Music] it's good for me to make you my refuge because in you i will find strength in you i will find preservation and comfort so i declare in the name of jesus christ that i am equipped with everything i need to survive this storm lord jesus you will never give me more than i can bear and you have already made a way to victory available to me so i declare that in the name of jesus christ i am more than a conqueror i will overcome this test this difficulty or this trial in my life although my physical eyes might not see it yet i believe that in you lord jesus i will have victory although my heart and flesh may fail i declare god's word which says that i have overcome by the blood of the lamb and by the word of my testimony i confess and declare that there is power in the blood of jesus and so i ask father that you go before me lord although i may face things that leave me with more questions than answers i will continue to look to you a god who has said in deuteronomy 31 verse 8 it is the lord who goes before you he will be with you he will not leave you or forsake you do not fear or be dismayed lord jesus i will continue to trust in you to trust in your word your will is divine and it overrules my own will your plans are just and they are better than anything i could ever imagine and so i bless your name i relinquish all control and give you the glory honor and praise forevermore in jesus name i pray amen [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] you
