“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the one who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.”
1 Peter 2:9
Prayer:
Father, thank you for choosing me, making me royal, holy, and fully yours. Thank you for calling me out of darkness and into your light so that I can praise you. Lord, I want to believe what you say about who I am as your son/daughter. The enemy reminds me of my failures, condemns me and causes me to feel insecure. The enemy’s lies lead to feelings of shame, and he leads me to believe I am less than who you say I am. Lord, I do not want to partner with the enemy by believing his lies. I don’t want to give him any ground by wasting time believing something that you did not say about me and my life. Lord, I need to learn to love myself and value myself as your son/daughter. Heal my heart and mind of the lies I’ve said about myself and my life. Set me free to embrace who you say I am and live the life you created me to live. I need my relationship with myself to be one that blesses you, brings you honor, and enables me to fulfill the plans and purpose you have for my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
