Mighty Prayer

Sharing a prayer I found a few weeks ago. Reading through it again today~

Dear Heavenly Father,
I pray this prayer in the power of the Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus Christ Your one and only Son who died and rose again for remission of sin, I bind, rebuke and render powerless: all division, discord, disunity, strife, wrath, murder, criticism, condemnation, pride, envy, jealously, gossip, slander, evil speaking, complaining, lying, false teaching, false gifts, false manifestations, lying signs and wonders, poverty, fear of lack, fear of spirits, deceiving spirits, religious spirits, hindering spirits, retaliatory spirits, occult spirits, witchcraft spirits, spirits of antichrist and all familiar and territorial spirits.
I bind all curses that have been spoken against me. I bless those who curse me, and pray blessings on those who despitefully use me. I bind all spoken judgments made against me, and judgments I have made against others. I bind the power of negative words from others, and I bind and render useless all prayers not inspired by the Holy Spirit; whether psychic, soul force, witchcraft, or counterfeit tongues that have been prayed against me.
I am God's child. I resist the devil and declare that No weapon formed against me shall prosper.
I put on the whole armour of God (my loins girt about with truth; and having on the breastplate of righteousness; and my feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; taking the shield of faith, with which I shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked; the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching with all perseverance and supplication for all saints) and declare it is an armour of light. I take authority over this day, Let it be prosperous for me Lord and let me walk in your love.
The Holy Spirit leads and guides me today and fills me with all needed gifting and graces. I discern between the righteous and the wicked and I take authority over Satan and all his demons and those people who are influenced by them. I declare Satan is under my feet and shall remain there all day.
I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. I am God's property. Satan, you are bound from my family, my mind, my body, my home, and my finances. I confess that I am healed and whole. I flourish, am long lived, stable, durable, incorruptible, fruitful, virtuous, full of peace, patience and love. Whatsoever I set my hands to do shall prosper for God supplies all my needs.
God, I pray for the ministry You have for me. Anoint me God for all you have called me to do for You. I call forth divine appointments, open doors of opportunity, God ordained encounters and ministry positions.
I claim a hedge of protection, by the Precious Blood of Jesus, around myself and my loved ones throughout this day and night. I ask You God, in the name of Jesus, to send angels to surround us today and everyday, and to put them throughout my house and around our cars, souls, bodies, wills and emotions. I call on Your holy angels to protect my house from any intrusion and to protect me and my family and those I've named from any harmful demonic or other physical or mental attacks. I ask all of this in the name of Jesus.
"God indeed is my savior; I am confident and unafraid. My strength and my courage is the Lord, and He has been my Savior" (Isaiah 12:2 NAB)

Your Grace IS Enough for Me!!!

WHY? WHY? WHY??? Why do I doubt You Lord? You are so Mighty to Save and yet I find myself putting You right back into this little box I have created. Within my own human limitations I make the attempt to understand an Infinite God - His Ways, His purposes and it just doesn't compute.
After almost a year of living within the confines I allowed fear to determine, I broke through the barrier and "took off." Literally!! 11 Months of "What if I have a panic attack on a plane again" has kept me off of the plane....until NOW!!
It has been an amazing journey of trials, suffering, pain, heartache, struggle, faith, strength, courage, hope, peace and growth. So much good and so much bad only to receive God's very best!! I could list hundreds of things that God has shown me over the course of the last year with Him. Each month He seemed to reveal a little something about myself and a little about Him. One graceful step at a time, God has walked with me giving me just enough grace for that moment, nothing more and nothing less than exactly what I needed when I needed it! Isn't He good? He is a Good God. He is a Gracious God. He is a Loving Father. You cannot fight this on your own...you need something bigger...someone bigger...and that can only be Jesus. No other name in Heaven or on Earth has the power to save. redeem or restore or heal.
I am looking forward to sharing more about this past week leading up to the flight...or battle with Goliath. If you are one who struggles with panic, anxiety, depression, let me encourage you to position yourself before God. If you are overwhelmed or weak, call on a Brother or Sister in the family of God who will commit to pray for you and over you. Prayer is our direct line to Him and HE HEARS YOUR CRIES FOR HELP! We need each other!! Don't allow pride to get in the way of your healing. Seek out another who will accept you and walk this broken path with you. He/She will also be accountability for you as you start the process of healing...when you begin to fear, you let them know and they will be that objective and support, encouraging shoulder to lean on. They can speak truth in your deceptive thoughts. If you are blessed, they will even stop and pray for you!
If you are in a place you'd rather talk to a professional counselor, then do it! There is nothing wrong with talking to a counselor. It is extremely important that you make a good choice on who you receive counsel from (friend or professional). Being a Believer, I want counsel that falls in line with my belief system. For me, I want someone to show me how I can talk to God about my problem. I want tools and resources that will not separate my thoughts from Him onto what I can do for myself, rather focus on how to lay my thoughts down before Him and align them with His thoughts.
All the fretting, all the fear, al the "what if's" and IT WAS ALL GOOD. His GRACE WAS ENOUGH FOR ME!! I had immeasurable peace...wow! I still sit back and think Wow!! Wow...for me...God did immeasurably more than I could have ever thought or imagined...and I have quite the imagination I tell ya!!! (Read this: Ephesians 3:20-21) This song was my victory song...my song or remembrance and promise Saturday...for me...God is ENOUGH! Click here for the song from YouTube.

Here is the short film from the flight day! (The row of ladies behind our seat leaned forward and asked us if we happened to be Newlyweds because we were taking so many pics and video of ourselves..and there may have been a few little kisses :0 every now and then! What a shock to discover we are approaching our 17th Wedding Anniversary and waiting for us back home were FOUR children ages 12-2!!!!! Funny reaction needless to say! I was able to share a brief testimony and they cheered me on!)
