A Prayer of Strengthened Faith-Declaring the Supremacy of Jesus Christ
O Lord, see how the enemy’s arrows come at me constantly to discourage my heart! Have mercy on me O God and lift me up from the temptations of fear, and despair; deliver me O God from a sinful and unbelieving heart; save me from the spirits of discouragement and doubt.
Jesus since it was through the Spirit of holiness that you were declared with power to be the Son of God, you are my refuge and my stronghold in times of trouble. Since the Lord God Almighty has raised you from the dead, lead me into your truth and teach me your ways, for you are Christ my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.
Therefore my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident. For Lord you have never forsaken those who seek you, and I trust you at your word.
For Lord Jesus, you are the image of the invisible God, and the firstborn over all creation. For by you Jesus all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by you Christ and for you Jesus Christ.
Jesus you are before all things, and in you Lord everything holds together. And you, Jesus are the head of the body, God’s church; you are the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything God has granted you supremacy. For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in you Jesus; and through you to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through your blood, shed on the cross.
So in your love Lord, there is no fear. Your perfect love Jesus has driven it out. My comfort in all my suffering is this: Your promises preserve my life.
In Jesus Name I Pray
Amen
