Only be thou strong and very courageous, that thou mayest observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded thee: turn not from it to the right hand or to the left, that thou mayest prosper whithersoever thou goest.

I pray I will always speak as the law says. The law will be the centrepiece of my life.

Joshua 1:1 - 5

Now after the death of Moses the servant of the LORD it came to pass, that the LORD spake unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' minister, saying, Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel.
Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses. From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.
There shall not any man be able to stand before thee all the days of thy life: as I was with Moses, so I will be with thee: I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Prayer

Lord, the time to overcome is now. As you have chosen me, by your grace, I will lead and not follow.
Every barrier before me, will be made plain in Jesus name.
You have said every place where the sole of my feet shall touch, you have given unto me. Therefore this land, where I am now, will work for me. I will succeed, I will fulfil my destiny. I will eat the good of this land.
I declare that as you have said, no man will be able to stand before me from this day henceforth because your Almighy presence is with me. Greater is he that is with me than he that is in the world.
I trust in you, you will not leave me nor forsake me.
Thank you for victory in all my endeavours that you have given me. Amen

Luke 6: 46 - 49

And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

Prayer

Father, I come to you again about my desire to do all you tell me to do.
Help even as I call you Lord, I want you to be my Lord indeed.
As I take baby steps, hearing from you as I read my bible everyday, let my foundation in you be like a house on the rock, solid and unshakeable.
Lord as challenges and temptations come, let my reliance on you uphold me.
The storms of life will not overwhelm me or weary me.
I will not be ruined. Thank you father. Amen

Psalm 1:3

And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

I pray that ungodliness and its impact will not enter into me. Do not make it hard for me O Lord.
You are my shepherd.
Show me the way to righteousness.
Amen

1 Peter 5: 6 - 10

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.
Whom resist steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.
But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.

Prayer

Father, help me to humble myself before you and the people around me. Take away every pride in me and let your grace abound in me.
Lift me up o Lord.
I submit all my troubles to you, you are more than able to take care of me.
Help me to be sensitive to the devices and tactics of the devil against me and my family. Protect me, let the devil not see me. I refuse to be mince meat for the devil to devour.
You have come to give me abundant life. I embrace life.
I know I have to be steadfast in faith as the devil continues to attack my faith. Help me Lord, I do not want to give in.
With all I am going through, Make me perfect, establish me fully in the faith, strengthen me, I have overcome through what you did on the cross of calvary.
Settle me.
I desire your peace. Amen

It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Leviticus 26:3 – 11

Leviticus 26: 3 – 11
If ye walk in my statutes, and keep my commandments, and do them;
Then I will give you rain in due season, and the land shall yield her increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
And your threshing shall reach unto the vintage, and the vintage shall reach unto the sowing time: and ye shall eat your bread to the full, and dwell in your land safely.
And I will give peace in the land, and ye shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid: and I will rid evil beasts out of the land, neither shall the sword go through your land.
And ye shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.
And five of you shall chase an hundred, and an hundred of you shall put ten thousand to flight: and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.
For I will have respect unto you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, and establish my covenant with you.
And ye shall eat old store, and bring forth the old because of the new.
And I will set my tabernacle among you: and my soul shall not abhor you.
And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people.

Prayer

Father,
Teach me your statutes, help me to keep your commandments and do them.
As you have promised, let this season be my due season, give me rain. Let this land yield her increase. Everything I start, help me to finish them. Let my blessings be full. Protect me from all evil.
You are the prince of peace. Let your peace surround me. I will not be afraid, rid my life, my family, my business, my home of every evil beast lurking around. No evil will come near me.
As I chase my enemies, they will all fall by the sword.
As you have promised, have respect for me, let my prayer come unto you. Make me fruitful, multiply me. You are a God of covenant.
Your blessings for me will be unending.
Let your stall in my heart, help me such that you will never abhor me.
Walk all over my life, I accept you as my Lord and Master. Be my God. Amen
