Father,

 

You know me.  My inmost being, you know how my thoughts betray the greatness of who You are. How I see myself as so much less than anything you ever meant me to be.  I watched the Coffee Bean the other day and was struck how someone told him he had thinking stinking, and how he was able to change in the worst situation. I see that so much in myself. Feelings and thoughts of defeat. How it seems that I can’t win, or at least that is how it is in my mind. Even though I look back on every moment of my life and see Your hand and Your guiding, and Your protection through all of it.  How You have held me and loved me completely through it all, and yet in my mind, I’m loser and a failure. Father it’s more than having a good attitude, it’s about not looking at the price You paid for me, and Your great love for me, and how valuable I am to you and thinking that it is worthless.  The valuable price You paid for me, the patience and the love You have for me. Father, It’s time for me to embrace Your thoughts towards me.  

 

In Jeremiah Your thoughts toward me are Good  and full of hope for my future. In Psalms The sheer number and preciousness of Your thoughts toward me lets me know that You never stop thinking of me.  In Isaiah You love me so greatly that You thoughts for me are beyond my understanding, and are filled with divine wisdom and care for me.  In Zephaniah, You say that Your Rebuke is not forever but it is filled with Great Love and kindness.  You take Joy in me, rejoicing over me, singing Your love for me.

 

So today, I rebuke any thought that I’ve allowed to take hold in me that says anything less than being Your precious, and loved child. That You have made me not only an over comer, but a member of Your family. I thank You that the thoughts of less than no longer have fertile soil, that those seeds are choked out by the truth of who You are, and that where there have been thoughts of only losing to the truth that I can’t lose. I thank You for the deeper waters of Your presence and Your love. I thank You for drowning me in Your Great love.  It’s my joy to give it all to You. Whisper to me all day long and every moment from this day forward the truth of who I am in You. The fact that I am simply Yours. Thank You that the people that You have placed in my life are blessed today because I belong to You and I bring You into every situation.  

 

I love You, increase my capacity to love You and to be loved by You. 

 

In Jesus Name,
