Armor of God Prayer #2 "The Belt of Truth"
Dear God,
Your plan for me is to prosper, have future, and hope (Jeremiah 29:11). But Satan is lurking around, strategizing how to deceive me by producing a misleading impression of reality on me (1 Peter 5:8).
Satan wants me to be disarmed and NOT believe WHO I am in Christ:
- An heir of the ruler of the Universe
- A daughter of the King
- God’s special child
- A Princess
Satan is a liar and the father of lies (John 8:44).
Satan’s lies can never stand up against the light of your, God, truth, YOUR own word, the Gospel.
I know that Satan never attacks me with a blanket, generalized approach.
I know Satan’s attacks are clever, they are PREMEDITATED deceptions that are conducted soooo eloquently.
Deception is the tool Satan uses to mislead when he comes as a thief to kill and steal and destroy (John 10:10).
But your TRUTH, God, is the light that helps me authenticate every decision, every aspect of life, every thought, God, I lean on your word and not my own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Father God, you are my loving Daddy, and your boundaries are loving. You set rules to protect me and you asked me to honor your boundaries SO THAT you can protect me from being deceived by Satan.
Father God, I call you Abba, I trust your protection guarantee (Psalm 91:7).
So, I stand firmly on YOUR truth. I take every thought that comes to mins every day in every aspect of life - CAPTIVE and I submit it to YOUR truth (2 Corinthians 10:5).
I know from Ephesians 6:10-19 that you have already given me strength to declare the spiritual victory that has already been won on my behalf.
I know that I can stand strong against the enemy because you’ve armed me.
Your armor is my protection, I put on the 7-piece Armor of God daily (Ephesians 6:10-18):
- The belt of truth
- The breastplate of righteousness
- The shield of faith
- The helmet of salvation
- The shoes of the Gospel
- The sword of the Spirit
- The prayer without ceasing
I know that every day my struggle is not against flesh and blood,
but against the rulers,
against the authorities,
against the powers of this dark world
and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (Ephesians 6:12)
Therefore, I put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, I may be able to stand my ground.
God, your truth protects me from Satan’s deception.
Understanding WHO you are, God, and HOW you work makes me resilient to stress, stable in trials, resistant to spiritual injuries, and enables me to sustain significant pressure in adversity.
So, God, am committed to:
- Studying the Scripture so that I know your truth by heart
- Setting your Word as my benchmark for my decision-making
- Submitting to your teachings every day in every way and not my emotions, feelings, impulses, or ambitions
Father God,
I stand straight, upright on your 3573 promises
I stay strong, empowered by your truth
I set out to exercise my discernment daily to honor you with my life and to be protected against Satan’s deceptive schemes.
God, I know the TRUTH: your Spirit lives in me. Because of this, I can live in a way that is honoring to you, with RIGHTEOUSNESS.
God, because I know that your plan for me is hope, future, and prosperity (Jeremiah 29:11) and because I know you work all things together for good (Romans 8:28), I can have PEACE that passes all understanding (Philippians 4:7).
God, I believe in you and I abide in your word, I live in its light and I have FAITH.
God, I know my eternity is secure with Christ, I thank you for every spiritual blessing (Ephesians 1:3), for my status as royalty and King’s heir (Romans 8:17), and for my identity as your daughter, a Princess, a child of the King (Matthew 25:34). Thank you for my SALVATION.
God, your truth is relevant, present, and alive, it’s renewed every day in meaning as I face new life challenges. The Holy Spirit makes the Gospel fresh and new for me each and every day and in all aspects of life I lean on my mastermind - The Trinity, confronting Satan’s deceptive lies with THE WORD OF GOD.
God, I talk to you through PRAYER daily. You hear my prayers & answer (Psalm 116)
Father God, thank you for this wisdom and awareness.
I refuse to trust culture, ambitions, aspirations, assumptions, emotions, feelings, or anything else but your word, the truth of the Gospel..
I am choosing to stay present, here with you, strong, grounded, aware of this spiritual warfare and Satan’s clever deceitful ways, alert in my mind, and armed with the armor of God. I trust in the Lord and lean not on my own understanding and you, God, are making my path straight, protecting me from Satan’s deception.
In Jesus’ name.
Amen.
