PRAYING FOR PEACE OF MIND
AND GOD’S PROTECTION
By Bishop L. H. Martin, Jr.
Do you find your mind being bombarded with thoughts which cause great apprehension of what the future may hold for you? This is how the devil robs us of our peace of mind and faith that the Lord is able to protect us and provide all that we may need. In place of peace, we find ourselves filled with all kinds of disbelief, fear and dread of what we will have to face. When you experience these things, here are some steps you can take to help you combat this attack of the devil:
Step 1. Ask the Lord to forgive you of:
a. Bitterness and anger towards those who have hurt, disappointed and let you down.
b. Your anger with God for subjecting you to those things which are troubling and tormenting you.
c. Any of your transgressions against God first and then towards others.
Remember what the Word of God tells us in:
Ephesians 4:31-32 (NLT) - Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. 32 Instead, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.
Step 2. Ask the Lord to cleanse your heart of all the pain, anger, frustration, fear and doubt you are experiencing. Each of these things hinder our ability to believe and trust God for our help, deliverance and victory.
Remember what the Word of God tells us in:
Colossians 3:8-9 (NLT) - But now is the time to get rid of anger, rage, malicious behavior, slander, and dirty language. 9 Don’t lie to each other, for you have stripped off your old sinful nature and all its wicked deeds.
Step 3. When you find yourself being overwhelmed with worry, concerns and fearful of what the future may hold, you must believe what the Lord tells us in His Word.
Remember what the Word of God tells us in:
2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV) - For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
You see, God has not given you this spirit of fear (worry and anxiety), it comes from the devil to torment you and to steal your JOY, PEACE and ASSURANCE in the Lord.
Remember what the Word of God tells us in:
Romans 15:13 (NLT) - I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
So, PRAY and tell the devil along with those spirits of fear, to get off your mind and heart - IN THE NAME OF JESUS! Claim God’s Peace and Assurance as you pray for the salvation, deliverance and protection of your loved ones and the various situations causing them to be separated from God. Tell the devil that he WILL NOT retaliate against you or your loved ones because you are claiming God’s Promises and Favor upon them and yourself.
Remember what the Word of God tells us in:
Romans 8:38 (NLT) - And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love.
Every time you feel those spirits of fear trying to torment you, pray again using the above principles until the Peace of God has returned and renewed His COMFORT, PEACE, ASSURANCE and JOY within your heart.
~ PRAY THIS AS OFTEN AS NECESSARY UNTIL YOU HAVE THE VICTORY! ~
