Commission to Faith

It's been almost a month since our study ended. I pray that we are as on fire for the Lord, now, as we were then. Let's not let our flames flicker with the passing of time. Stay in the Word. Commit yourself to spending time with Jesus. Guard yourself against busyness and complacency. And remember your commission to faith...

Lord, today I accept my calling

not to perfection or performance.

My calling is to faith.

I have been chosen for this generation.

I have a place in the heritage of faith.

I'm going to stop wishing and whining

and start believing and receiving.

What Your Word says is mine.

I won't let others steal my hope.

I won't argue with a Pharisee.

I will believe and therefore speak,

for You, my God, are huge.

Nothing is too hard for You.

Our world needs your wonders.

Rise up, oh Lord!

Please renew Your works in our day.

I confess the unbelief of my generation

and ask You to begin Your revival of faith

in my own heart.

For You are who You say You are.

You can do what You say You can do.

I am who You say I am.

I can do all things through Christ.

Your Word is alive and active in me.

Satan, hear me clearly:

My Father is the Maker of heaven and earth.

You are under my feet,

because today and the rest of my days,

I'm believing God!
