For
Salvation (How to become a Christian)
Heavenly
Father, in the Name of Jesus, I present myself to You.
I pray and ask Jesus to be Lord
over my life. I believe it in my heart, so I say it with my mouth: 'Jesus
has been raised from the dead.' This moment, I make Him the Lord over my
life.
Jesus, come into my heart. I
believe this moment that I am saved. I say it now: 'I am reborn. I am a
Christian. I am a child of Almighty God.'
Amen
Now, thank God for making you His child. You have
just inherited the kingdom of God!
For Healing(How
to pray for healing)
Father, I am
your child. I am filled with your Spirit. I believe that Jesus bore my
sickness and carried my diseases, and I believe that by His stripes I was
healed 2,000 years ago.
Right now, I accept that fact
by faith. I believe that I am healed now, in the Name of Jesus.
Amen
(or, use the following,
or both combined...)
For Health
and Healing (A prayer for health and healing)
Father, in
the Name of Jesus, I confess Your Word concerning health and healing. As
I do, I believe that Your Word will not return to You void, but will accomplish
what it says.
In the Name of Jesus, I believe
that I am healed according to 1
Peter 2:24. Your Word says that Jesus Himself took my infirmities and
bore my sicknesses (Mat.
8:17). Therefore, with great boldness and confidence, I stand on the
authority of Your Word and declare that I am redeemed from the curse of
sickness. I refuse to tolerate its symptoms.
Satan, I speak to you in Jesus’
Name and I proclaim that your principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness
of this world, and spiritual wickedness in heavenly places are bound from
operating against me in any way. I am loosed from your assignment. I am
the property of Almighty God and I give you no place in me. I dwell in
the secret place of the Most High God and I abide under the shadow of the
Almighty, whose power no foe can withstand.
Now Father, I believe Your Word
that says, ‘The angel of the Lord encamps round about me and delivers me
from every evil work. No evil shall befall me, no plague or calamity shall
come near my dwelling.’
I confess that the Word abides
in me and it is life and medicine to my flesh. The law of the Spirit of
life in Christ Jesus operates in me, making me free from the law of sin
and death.
I hold fast to my confession
of Your Word and I stand immovable, knowing that health and healing are
mine NOW, in Jesus' Name.
Amen
For Baptism
in the Holy Spirit (How to receive the baptism
in the Holy Spirit)
My heavenly
Father, I am a believer. I am Your child and You are my Father. Jesus is
my Lord. I believe with all my heart, that Your Word is true.
Your Word says that if I ask,
I will receive the Holy Spirit, so in the Name of Jesus Christ, my Lord,
I am asking You to fill me to overflowing with Your precious Holy Spirit.
Jesus, baptize me in the Holy
Spirit. Because of Your Word, I believe that I now receive and I thank
You for it. I believe that the Holy Spirit is within me and by faith I
accept it.
Now, Holy Spirit, rise up within
me as I praise my God. I fully expect to speak with other tongues as you
give me the utterance.
Amen
To Make
Jesus the Lord of Your Life
Heavenly Father,
in the Name of Jesus, I present myself to You. I pray and ask Jesus to
be Lord over my life. I believe it in my heart, so I say it with my mouth:
Jesus has been raised from the dead. This moment, I make Him the Lord over
my life.
Jesus, come into my heart. I
believe this moment that I am saved.
I say it now: I am reborn. I
am a Christian. I am a child of Almighty God.
Amen.

A Prayer
for a Harmonious Marriage
Father, in the Name of Jesus, it
is written in Your Word that love is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy
Ghost Who is given to us. Because You are in us, we acknowledge that love
reigns supreme.
We believe that love is displayed
in full expression enfolding and knitting us together in truth, making
us perfect for every good work to do Your will, working in us that which
is well pleasing in Your sight.
We desire to live and conduct
ourselves and our marriage honorably and becomingly. We esteem it as precious,
worthy and of great price. We commit ourselves to live in mutual harmony
and accord with one another, delighting in each other, being of the same
mind and united in spirit.
Father, we believe and say that
we are gentle, compassionate, courteous, tenderhearted and humble minded.
We seek peace and it keeps our hearts in quietness and assurance. Because
we follow after love and dwell in peace, our prayers are not hindered in
any way in the Name of Jesus. We are heirs together of the grace of God.
We purpose together to live in
agreement, to live in harmony, to live in peace, to live in power toward
each other and toward all men. We confess that our marriage grows stronger
day by day in the bond of unity because it is founded on Your Word and
rooted and grounded in Your love. Father, we thank You for the performance
of it in Jesus' Name.
Amen.

A Prayer
for Your Children
Father, Your Word is true and I
believe it. Therefore, in the Name of Jesus, I believe in my heart and
say with my mouth that the Word of God prevails over my children. Your
Word says that You will pour out Your Spirit upon my offspring and Your
blessing upon my descendants. I believe and say that my children are wise
and they take heed to and are the fruit of godly instruction and correction.
I love my children and I will diligently discipline them early. Because
of that, they give me delight and rest.
Father, I take Your Word that
says You will contend with him who contends with me and You give safety
to my children and ease them day by day. I confess that You, Lord, give
Your angels special charge over my children to accompany and defend and
preserve them. I believe they find favor, good understanding and high esteem
in Your sight Lord, and in the sight of man.
I confess that my children are
disciples taught of the Lord and obedient to Your will. Great is their
peace and undisturbed composure. I believe I receive wisdom and counsel
in bringing up my children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.
And Your Word declares that when they are old they will not depart from
it. So, I commit them into Your keeping and I know and have confident trust
that they are watched over and blessed of the Lord all the days of their
lives, in Jesus' Name.
Amen.

A Prayer
for Our Government
Father, in
Jesus' Name, I give thanks for our country and it's government. I hold
up in prayer before You the men and women in positions of authority. I
pray for all people in authority over us in any way. I pray that the Spirit
of the Lord rests upon them.
I believe that skillful and godly
wisdom has entered into the hearts of our leaders and knowledge is pleasant
to them. Discretion watches over them; understanding keeps them and delivers
them from the way of evil and from evil men.
Your Word declares that 'blessed
is the nation whose God is the Lord.' I receive Your blessing and declare
with my mouth that Your people dwell safely in this land and that they
prosper abundantly.
It is written in Your Word that
the heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord and that You turn it whichever
way You desire. I believe the heart of our leader is in Your hand and that
his decisions are divinely directed of the Lord.
I give thanks unto You that the
good news of the gospel is published in our land. The Word of the Lord
prevails and grows mightily in the hearts and lives of the people. I give
thanks for this land and the leaders You have given to us, in Jesus' Name.
I proclaim that Jesus is Lord
over my country.
Amen.

To Walk
in the Perfect Peace of God
Father, in
Jesus' Name, I thank You that Your peace is my covenant right in Christ
Jesus. I will keep my mind fixed on You Lord and trust in You and You will
keep me in perfect peace.
I will not fret or have anxiety
about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything by prayer and
petition with thanksgiving, I will continue to make my wants known to You,
Father. And Your peace, which transcends all understanding, shall garrison
and mount guard over my mind and heart in Christ Jesus. I fix my mind only
on that which is worthy of reverence, honorable, just, pure, lovely, kind
and gracious. If there is anything worthy of praise, I will think on and
weigh and take account only of these things.
I will let the peace of God rule
in my heart. As I do, I believe that my calm and undisturbed heart and
mind are life and health to my physical body. I humble myself under the
mighty hand of God, casting all of my concerns and anxieties on Him once
and for all, because I know that He cares for me affectionately.
I thank You, Father, that You
have not given me a spirit of timidity, of cowardice, of craven and cringing
and fawning fear. The spirit I have of You is of power and love and of
a calm and well balanced mind, of discipline and self control. You, Lord,
are on my side; I will not fear. What can men do to me? You, Lord, are
my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear or dread? You, Lord, are the
refuge and stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? I love Your
law,
0 Lord; nothing shall offend me or make me stumble; I walk in great peace,
in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

Walking
in the Wisdom and Guidance of the Holy Spirit
Father, in
the Name of Jesus, I realize that as a believer, my body is the temple
of the Holy Spirit. My acknowledgment of His presence on a daily basis
makes my faith in Him effectual. I believe that You, heavenly Father, are
leading me and guiding me by the Holy Spirit through my spirit and illuminating
my mind.
As I yield to the Holy Spirit,
I believe that my steps are ordered of the Lord. Committing and trusting
myself wholly to His guidance, I expect Him to cause my thoughts to become
agreeable to His will, and so shall my plans be established and succeed.
I trust in the Lord with all my heart and lean not on my own understanding.
As I acknowledge Him, He directs me in paths of righteousness.
I confess that as I become more
God inside minded, I can more easily recognize the inward witness of the
Holy Spirit. I hear the voice of the Good Shepherd, and a stranger's voice
I will not follow. I am aware that my spirit is the candle of the Lord.
I meditate in the Word day and
night, not letting it depart from my mouth. I test my inward witness with
the Word, for the Spirit and the Word agree. I am quick to act on the Word,
as well as the prompting of my spirit. I am not a hearer only, but a doer.
Therefore, I am blessed in all my deeds.
Amen.

A Prayer
for Your Finances
Heavenly Father,
I have chosen Jesus as the Lord of my life and I seek first the kingdom
of God and His righteousness, believing that the material things I need
will be supplied. I choose for my character and moral disposition to be
free from the love of money, greed, lust and craving for earthly possessions.
I am satisfied with my present circumstances and with what I have, being
confident because You have promised that You will not in any way fail me,
nor leave me without support. I am confident in Your faithfulness, that
You will never leave me, nor forsake me, nor leave me helpless. I take
comfort and am encouraged; I boldly say, 'The Lord is my helper, I will
not be seized with alarm, I will not fear, or dread or be terrified.'
I believe, Father, that You wish
above all things that I prosper and be in health even as my soul prospers.
I will meditate in Your Word day and night, not letting it depart from
my mouth, keeping it in the midst of my heart, observing to do all that
is written therein. I believe that then I shall make my way prosperous
and have good success. You have promised that as a doer of the Word I will
be blessed in all of my deeds. I am assured that You will withhold no good
thing from me as I walk uprightly. The uncompromising are never forsaken.
I make it my ambition to live quietly and peacefully, to mind my own affairs,
to work with my hands so that I may bear myself correctly and honorably
and command the respect of the outside world, being self supporting, dependent
on no one and having need of nothing.
Knowing through Your Word, Father,
that You are the Lord my God who teaches me to profit and who leads me
by the way I should go, I will put Your principles to work in my life regarding
employment. I choose to apply myself to good deeds to honest labor and
honorable employment, so that 1 may be able to meet necessary demands whenever
the occasion may require and that I may not live an idle, uncultivated,
unfruitful life, in Jesus' Name.
I labor so that I may walk honestly
toward those who are without. As I give, it is given unto me again; good
measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will men give
into my bosom. I do not sow sparingly and grudgingly, but rather, I sow
generously, blessing others. Therefore, I can expect to reap generously
and with blessings.
Amen.

Overcoming
Bad Habits
Father, I believe
that my faith becomes effectual - divinely energized - by the acknowledging
of every good thing which is in me in Christ Jesus. Through my union with
Christ, I am a new creature, old things are passed away and all things
have become new.
I was crucified with Christ,
nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ lives in me. I was buried with
Him in baptism, and raised together with Him by the power of the Holy Spirit
so that I might habitually live and behave in newness of life. My old,
unrenewed self was nailed to the Cross with Him in order that my body,
which is the instrument of sin, might be made ineffective and inactive
for evil and that I might no longer be the slave of sin.
Just as death no longer has power
over Jesus Christ, neither does sin have dominion over me through my union
with Him. I consider myself dead to sin and my relation to it broken. I
am alive only to God, living in unbroken fellowship with Him, in Christ
Jesus.
I have been delivered from the
control and dominion of darkness and transferred into the kingdom of light.
I have been raised together with Christ and am seated together with Him,
far above principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world
and wicked spirits in high places. Sin shall no longer exert dominion over
me, but I have dominion over sin. It is under my feet, in the Name of Jesus,
Amen.

Spiritual
Growth
Heavenly Father,
I cease not to pray for _______________ that You may grant him (her) a
