Working in Prayer For Mental, Spiritual and Physical Health

-
Matthew 6.5-15, Luke 11.1-13
Get in a secret, private place and pray a short focused prayer.
Praising God for who He is. 
Agreeing with Him about the logical consequences of my choices that help give me direction.
Asking that His will be done on earth and especially in my life.
Asking for what I need and want.
Asking for forgiveness equal to what I give to others.
Asking for leadership away from temptations.
Asking for deliverance from evil in my life.

Matthew 7.7-12
Ask with confidence in our Father giving us what we need and want and more.

Matthew 11.25-30
Asking the Father's help and Jesus' help with being weary and burdened and expecting His relief.

Mark 11.20-26
When there is something fruitless in our lives it helps to name it and agree with God that this is not "fruitful".  Expect God to desire to bless us with changing the situation for our benefit.  Do not doubt. Ask, believe and receive.  Forgive all people that we might hold anything against.

John 15.7,8
Remain in Jesus. Surrounded by Him.  Filled with His Spirit and we can ask what we wish and it will be given to us.

1 John 5.14,15
We have this confidence God knows our hearts and we have what we have asked of Him.

Luke 18.9-14
I want to be honest and real with God about my life.  God be merciful to me the sinner.  When I have agreed with God and turned my heart to Him, He is free to empower and strengthen me to grow and improve my life with Him.

6.10- The Power of Keeping a Confidence

-
 6.10- The Power of Keeping a Confidence I have a close friend who started listening to my confidential words 46 years ago. He guards his lips and preserves secrets and deep friendship. He does not speak rashly. He doesn't add shame to the bad things l have experienced. He reduces my burdens by his grace. He has good judgement regarding when to speak and when to remain silent. This gives him good long term friends and deep joy. Proverbs 13 3  A wise son  accepts his  father’s discipline, But a scoffer does not listen to rebuke. 2  From the fruit of a person’s mouth he  [ a ] enjoys good, But the  [ b ] desire of the treacherous is violence. 3  One who guards his mouth protects his life; One who opens wide his lips  [ c ] comes to ruin. 4  The soul of the  [ d ] lazy one craves and  gets  nothing, But the soul of the diligent is made  [ e ] prosperous. 5  A righteous person hates a f...

9.7- The long prayers about not electing anyone who doesn't support babies in the womb

 9.7- The long prayers about not electing anyone who doesn't support babies in the womb but unwilling to support and educate them for the next 18 years. Save your political action prayers for the meeting with your win/lose political party, whether you are democrat, republican or independependent as far as I'm concerned. Preach and sing the gospel but leave moral slobbery for some group that doesn't abuse children and cover it up and practices racism as a normal thing. The teacher said don't strain out gnats and swallow camels. Stop bad religion please. Matthew 25 31  “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne.   32  And all the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, just as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;   33  and He will put the sheep on His right, but the goats on the left. 34  “Then the King...

8.16- Confidence is a good thing. A well trained Olympic athlete is very confident.

 8.16- Confidence is a good thing. A well trained Olympic athlete is very confident. They train four years or longer for this moment on beam and fall down the beam or fall of the beam. They fly off and miss the uneven bars. Knowing they cannot win a medal. They have messed up and gone off the horse. What do they do? They get back on the horse. They finish their routine with a confident smile. They do not let that failure define them. Our life is not marked by a failure unless we allow it to be. The choice is ours. Bad day at work yesterday. Make today that much better. 2 Corinthians 4 7  But we have this treasure in  [ e ] earthen containers, so that the extraordinary  greatness  of the power will be of God and not from ourselves;   8  we are  afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing;   9  persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed;   10  always carryi...
