Armor of God Prayer: Based on Ephesians 6:10-17

Father God,

I pray You gird my waist with Your belt of truth,

Infuse my heart and mind with You and Your Word.

Help me hear Your Spirit within,

And always seek Your Kingdom first.  (^{See Matthew 6:33)}

 

I put on the Breastplate of Righteousness,

I ask You to protect my Heart always.        (See proverbs 4:23)

Thanks for making me right through The Blood of Jesus,        (^{See Romans 5:9)}

Let Your righteousness serve others through me.        ^{See Ephesians 2:10}

 

Shod my feet with The Gospel of peace,

Guide my steps throughout this day.        (See Psalm 119:33-34)

Proclaiming the many gifts of God,

And the peace Jesus offers through faith.        (^{See Romans 5:1)}

 

Enable me to Lift Up the Shield of Faith,

As the evil fiery darts are defeated.

You say no weapon formed against me shall prosper, (^{See Isaiah 54:17)}

Let not the enemy’s plans be completed.       (1 Peter 5:8)

 

I place upon my head the Helmet of salvation,

Protect my mind from all that’s not of You.

Sanctify me until the day of completion, (^{See Philippians 1:6)}

And shelter me from all untruth.

 

Give me strength to wield the Sword of the Spirit,

Your Words are Powerful and filled with Might.  (^{See Hebrews 1:3)}

You Created the universe and all within it,       (See Genesis 1)

Thank You for The Way, The Truth and the Life.        (^{See John 14:6)}

 

As I venture into the day You have planned,

Help me listen and cooperate with Your Spirit.

Armed and protected, by the Armor,

WhichYou so graciously have gifted.

 

In Jesus Name I pray,

Amen.

Valentine’s Day 2020: Post “I do”…

Our SOULS danced, with birds-eye view, 

Above ONE WHOLE, once Lost as Two.

Spectators to love ENHANCED and RENEWED,

Agape-embraced Eros is TESTED and TRUE.

Opening The Gift…

There is surface level clarity,
Grasping only at the finger tips.
Of God’s outstretched wisdom,
Idle, leaving unwrapped His offered gift.

Meditation upon truth, neglected,
Many unclaimed revelations.
A loyalty to the comfort of ignorance,
Freedom from accountability and obligation.

But there’s more…

The ease of living enlightened,
The light within the truth.
The peace of a deeper relationship,
With a God, who guides and renews.

Rough surfaces get smoother with time,
Avoiding, and escaping snares becomes easier.
If the gift is opened, and understanding is sought,
Through prayer, and in Gods Word…

The Darkness Lives…

Aside

You are the nightmare among floral dreams

You lurk in fear’s shadows

The darkened spaces of earthly edges

And the blackness of haunting echoes

 

You come to kill, steal and destroy

Slithering among the hearts of men

Engulfing the world with temptation and torment

Seeking new souls to damn

 

Your demonic minions terrorize

Inflicting destruction at your bidding

Hiding their existence under the guise of strife

Creating a sense of despair, unremitting

 

You scratch and claw at unseeing eyes

Your blood is as acid burning holes in peace

You know you are defeated

Yet you still tear at flesh, desiring pains release

 

Your power is only that which we give you

The power of our fears and rage

You desperately attempt to fight a battle

You’re destined to lose in the coming days

 

You seek to take as many with you

As you can successfully deceive

You won’t stop in your attempts

And that’s why I watch for you soberly

 

Acknowledge he who hunts you as prey

Know thine enemy

But Do not feed him with your fear

God is stronger than he’ll ever be

The power of love and light

Conquers the powers of hell

God’s word is the sword of the spirit

Used to fight in spiritual warfare

We do not fight flesh and blood

But spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places (Ephesians 6:12)

Be vigilant to the end standing firm in hope

Faith is the shield, the devil’s arrows it quenches

Tame The Tongue In Written Word?

Speech in black and white
Same threat as mouth in action?
Or does it lose might?
______________________________________
I question the written word
Expressing thoughts with edits
Maybe it’s not as dangerous
As the human tongue is
The tongue, mighty and destructive
A small fire ignites the entire forest (James 3:5)
Strange that something so small
Can be packed with such abhorrence
Death and life abide in the tongue (Proverbs 18:21)
And it can’t be tamed by man (James 3:8)
So I’d like to think that black and white
Will give me the upper hand
