Praise the Lord Prayer

Listening to Jim Baker preach on becoming a Kingdom Wealth Builder, I finally figured out how to incorporate my passion and gifting into action.   I wanted to do something that was free for the audience, easy for me to fit into my schedule, and something that would allow me to use my  skills and abilities to help build  the  Kingdom of God.

I like listening to Podcasts, and heard that Anchor was an excellent resource.  I was thinking for a few months that I would like to use the ANCHOR app to start a podcast.  Thinking...  but not doing.  That's a problem.  Thank you Jim for encouraging me to step out in faith, take massive action, and put my passion into action.  My family and friends know that I am passionate about CBN radio.  It is free, it is easy, "Hey Google, play CBN Superbook Radio".  

I  am  thankful to those who have inspired me.  Thank you to the Pastoral Staff at Lakemount Worship Centre, Dr. Grant Mullen, Justin, Kevin, and Wes.  I thank the Lord for my wife who keeps me motivated.  I thank the Lord for my children.  God is so good.  He is amazing and I hope that your life becomes filled  with His Glory as He and His Kingdom are exalted.  He is worthy to be praised.  Amen.

These recordings are here to inspire you.  In return please favor me these three things. Read the bible everyday. Begin to praise, begin to worship.  And Three, Find your passion and follow it.   If you do that, I will receive a reward, an inheritance.  Literally above all that I could ask or imagine.

Statement of Belief - I believe in the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit.  I believe in the Trinity.  I believe that God is a loving father who is kind, loving, generous and full of mercy.  Jesus is God's only son, the Word of God, uncreated, Creator of all things.  Holy Spirit is our comforter, encourager, inspiration and guide.  I believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God.  The Word is alive and judges me.  I believe in the Old Testament value of Tithing.  Sowing and Reaping.  Seedtime and harvest.  God's abundance and my reliance on Him.  Wisdom is available by asking.  The  fear of God  is the beginning of Wisdom.  Wisdom is a person I invite into my life.

May God Bless you richly as you live and let him live through you.

How to:

Place the word of God where you can see it.

Write down the thought, write down a verse next to it.

If your negative thoughts have to do with your self (your flaws, your identity, etc.), then ask God to guard your mind and keep you centered on His truth (Philippians 4:6-7, 1 Peter 5:7).

If your negative thoughts concern others, pray for them (Matthew 5:44). Ask God to give you His love for them.

When you’re really wrestling with a sin or an issue, enlist other prayer warriors like the apostle Paul did (Philippians 1:19, Romans 15:30). After all, even Jesus requested the prayer of his closest friends when he faced the cross (Matthew 26:36-38)

Many times we need a combination of scripture, prayer, confession, accountability, and other practical helps to overcome our negative thoughts!

Lord, there is a lot of military language in the bible,  Your word mentions armor, strongholds, swords, warfare, weapons.  Paul speaks for example of taking thoughts captive.

“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” — 1 Peter 5:8

I pray Lord for discernment.  Give me wisdom Lord, to know what to do when I feel attacked.

By your divine power Lord, give me the mind of Christ, so that I may be obedient to you.  Lord, destroy in my mind, any proud arguments.

I submit all my thoughts, everything I think.  All my emotions and decisions.

I need you Holy Spirit to remove any deeply rooted thoughts that are against your will.

I am more than a conqueror

Jesus, you won the victory over sin and death

Lord, remove any strongholds that I may have built in my mind.

Jesus, you are  my standard, you are my banner.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. PHILIPPIANS 4:8 ESV

Transform my mind Lord.  Romans 12:2  Guard my mind Lord, keep me centered on your truth.

For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. 2 CORINTHIANS 10:4 ESV

Jesus, only you satisfy.  Only you are the Truth.  Only you can set me free.  Jesus, I pray that you would open up your word to my mind.

Jesus you are in Heaven above.  I set my mind on you.  I have been raised to life with you.  Thank you Lord that you are seated at the right hand of God.

Holy Spirit, I know that you desire… help me to desire you with all my heart, strength, soul, and mind.

Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.  EPHESIANS 6:13-18 ESV

For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.  HEBREWS 4:12

God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control”. -2 Timothy 1:7

“As a man thinks, so is he.” Proverbs 23:7.

Hide your word in my heart Lord.

Jesus, your word is full of examples of those who cried out to you.

Those who cried tears were many.   Some wept bitterly.  Some wept in anguish…  Some wept until you or your prophets healed their children.

You have compassion on all who cry out to you.

Lord, I come to you now and I confess that I am not as close to you as I would like to be.  Help me lord to open my heart.  Lord I am crying out you.  Have compassion on me.  Touch me and I will be healed.

Ecclesiastes 3:4  A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;

Job 16:20 My friends scorn me; my eye pours out tears to God,

Give me the faith to believe for a miracle.  I need your healing lord in my body, soul and in my spirit.  But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.

Proverbs 18:22  He who finds a wife finds a good thing And obtains favor from the Lord.

Malachi 2:14-16
