Spiritual Warfare Prayers, Faith
You are awe-inspiring. You are magnificent and mighty.
Your name holds more authority than I could ever conceive. You are stronger than I could ever dream. You are wiser than I could ever comprehend. You are more loving and compassionate than I could ever imagine.
You are God. You are above all.
Thank you for the powerful armor that you give to me.
I pick up the Shield of Faith.
I will feed my faith today. My faith will grow stronger this day. I will meditate on your promises to take care of me. When the enemy sends fiery darts my way – in order to discourage me or get me to doubt you – I will raise my shield of faith and deflect his attacks.
My shield is a shield of confidence that you, God, are able to take care of me.
I will continually remind myself of your faithfulness.
Lord, I will be unwavering in my devotion to you this day.
I pick up the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God.
I will give voice to the Word of God today. I will become more and more comfortable speaking out Scripture.
Lord, I will remind myself that when I speak your Scriptures, your power is unleashed. You have given believers words that will change the world.
Lord, I dedicate my mouth to you. I want all my words to please you. Help me to gain greater control over my tongue. I declare that today I will use my tongue to bless others, and I will avoid strife and unnecessary conflict.
Father, as I leave this time of prayer, I am going to be a freshly focused follower of Jesus Christ!
Amen

Matthew 6:7-13
7 “And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 9 Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
10 Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread,
12 and forgive us our trespasses,
as we have forgiven those who trespass against us
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

God Sees Our Suffering: The Book of Job
Job 7:20 ESV
If I sin, what do I do to you, you watcher of mankind? Why have you made me your mark? Why have I become a burden to you?
Job 10:14 ESV
If I sin, you watch me and do not acquit me of my iniquity.
Job 16:12 ESV
I was at ease, and he broke me apart; he seized me by the neck and dashed me to pieces; he set me up as his target
Job 35:3 ESV
that you ask, ‘What advantage have I? How am I better off than if I had sinned?’
Job 35:6 ESV
If you have sinned, what do you accomplish against him? And if your transgressions are multiplied, what do you do to him?






The book of Job, one of the wisdom books of the Bible, deals with two issues crucial to every person: the problem of suffering and the sovereignty of God.
Bible: The Old Testament
The question is a theme in the Old Testament: how can God remain good despite the fact that he allows evil and human suffering to exist?
Thank you R from Cam Care. I remembered you prayed and enlightened me about the Book of Job. I still have so much to learn.
