PRAYER
Father, I believe that Your Word is true. You cannot lie. I have full assurance that what You have spoken over me will come to pass. I can rely on Your love. Father, forgive me for any time when I have placed my trust in the things I could see instead of Your truth. I know that You are my only firm foundation. I decree faith to arise as I lean into Your voice. I know wherever You lead me I am certain that I will have a surpassing victory.
