Let Not My Feelings Get in the Way of Serving You

7/27/2026

O Lord,

Give me strength to run the race that is set before.  Please help me to not be swayed to the left or right, but keep on course.  I realize that many feelings can enter into the heart.  It is not only the mind that directs behaviors, but feelings also.  As a Christian, I must learn to master my mind and feelings.  At  this time of my understanding, I don’t know how the Bible refers to feelings.  I know they are not just the mind because feelings began to control the thoughts that come from the mind.  I must work on controlling my feelings.  I don’t want to falter because I feel disheartened.  Help me to understand feelings.  I will trust You to have uplifting and inspiring feelings.

I am Learning to Partner with You

Lord, I am learning to partner with You.  Your Word says that Christians are Your body.  We are You in action.  I am learning that I must allow You to work through me.  I often cut You off by trying to do something my way.  I seek to fix it with my own strength.  I am learning that this is a reason for prayer:  to turn things over to You so that You can work. 

I should not try to do things on my own.  I must pray and let You work it out, then I can abide with the outcome.  I am seeking for You to control everything that pertains to me. 

​Give me, please, the self-control to allow You to work in my life.  Your work in my life will be to uplift You and uplift others.  I will seek You diligently.  I will trust You and lean not on my own understanding.

I Cast Down the Stronghold of My Past

I will conform to You, Lord.  I will seek to know not my will but Your Word in my life.  I cast down the stronghold of my past against me.  I am choosing to forget those things that have bonded me.  I am free in You, Lord.  I claim freedom from all ill-effects from socialization.  I claim to know only the new life in Christ Jesus.  I flush my entire system clean of the wickedness that came from socialization.  I bring forth a new light in Christ Jesus.  I thank You for the knowledge of Your excellency.  I accept my entrance into Your holies of holies where Christ Jesus dwells.  I ask for forgiveness of my trespasses in living under the curse of socialization.  I thank You, Lord, for letting me be a new creation in You.  Let me reap the fullness of Your benefits.  I realize that I have passed from death to life.  I am requiring of me to live blameless in Your majesty.  I believe, Lord, that You will take care of every iota of my life.  I want to be strong in keeping the sabotage that comes from my mind away from the blessings You have for me.

I Will Pray More to Shun My Mind

O Lord, I am seeking Your fullness in me.  I have realized that the mind is a source of corruption.  I must destroy the works of my mind that seek to turn me from You.  I am learning how to pray.  I am learning to trust You for everything.  

I must lose who I think I am, learning only to know the way You want me to be.  I am learning that the source of who I think I am is in my mind.  I must shun all the desires that stem from my mind.  I will abolish the habitat of the evilness that starts the thoughts and perception.  

O Lord, help me to be strong in receiving Your Spirit and putting my ways aside.  I will pray more diligently so that I can conform to You.
