There are times when

meanness and cruelty

is serious enough

that we

draw a line in the sand and put up boundaries.

That is

not

the situation that this page is written for.

This page will help you....

Mount up a Defense

Against

Unsettling Thoughts and Emotions

and strengthen you

to become an 

Overcomer.


victory-verse

First

here is a Scripture to inspire you.


Ephesians 5:1 TLB

says...


" Follow God's example

in everything you do

just as

a

much

loved child

imitates her father. "

* his

God loves you very much!

love-God-sand


Here are some

Proclamations

to help us women

gain

a new perspective

and a

renewed overcoming mindset.


A Series of

Proclamations

to 

Read

Out - Loud.

arrow-curved-blue

These proclamations

are within

a prayer.


Loving Heavenly Father,

I am your beloved.

I reach out to you today.

I need your help today.

Comfort me and strengthen me as I reach out to you. 

Today,

I will rise up

and

stand as a

Mighty Woman of God.


I proclaim

these strengthening words...


I need to be more like the Holy Spirit. 

The Holy Spirit is a helper.

I am a helper.

God created women to be helpers.


The Holy Spirit is a picture of humility.

Our humble Holy Spirit
never
promotes himself.

The Holy Spirit
stays in the background
faithfully
serving
not angling for attention or vying for attention.


The Holy Spirit does not need recognition.

The Holy Spirit is working for
the well-being of others
and for
the Glory of Jesus and the Father.


I need to pray and to work

for

others to experience blessing. 


I need to shine the light of  Jesus

in the midst of

being ignored or even rejected. 


I need to be like a "side-kick" in an uplifting movie -
helping and happy and honored
to serve
without being noticed or appreciated. 

My

kindness

in

attitude and actions

are deemed

very important to God.


God sees.

God notices every blessing that I give others.


God beams with joy

as he sees my

kindnesses.

God knows how difficult it is to be an overcomer.


Even if

I am experiencing

being left out or forgotten,

I need

to

more fully understand

the Scripture

"it is more blessed to give than to receive."


God has special rewards for me

for all I am doing

to bless others.


I become more like the Holy Spirit

as I yield

to thoughts and actions of humility.

I deepen.

I mature. 

I commune with God on a deep level

as I become

more like The Holy Spirit. 


God calls my efforts -  Beautiful.

God calls my newness  - Beautiful.


I will receive and embrace

God's LOVE

to

enjoy with delight

and

I will receive and embrace

God's Love

to

strengthen me so that I can 

give God's Love to others in need.

Amen

Prayer inspired

by

Galatians 6:9-10 TLB


Heavenly Father,

Thank you for my Bible.

Your Word tells us in Galatians 6:9-10 TLB...

" Let us not get tired of doing what is right,

for after a while

we will reap a harvest of blessing

if

we don’t get discouraged and give up.


That’s why whenever we can

we should always be kind to everyone,

and especially to our Christian brothers."


So today, Lord,

I am standing with my Armor on.

I am 

ready

to demolish self-centeredness, self-pity, and excuses

 -  and instead -

I choose to walk the Path of Champions!

I will

live for YOU - TODAY!

Amen!

I often say

to motivate myself to be more like Jesus.


I am the Bride of Christ.

The Bride will purify herself.

The Bride will cleanse herself.

The Bride will wash herself

and

make herself more pleasing to the Bridegroom. 


The Bride purifies herself

1 John 3:3, James 4:8


The Bride cleanses herself

2 Corinthians 7:1


"The Bride will wash herself "

refers to these Scriptures:


# 1 Wash from sins and adopt a obedience mind-set

Wash you, make you clean;

put away the evil of your doings

from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;

Isaiah 1:16 


# 2 Wash by reading the Bible with a teachable heart.

The Bride also washes herself

by reading the Word of God

and

allowing Jesus to wash us with his Word.


That he [Jesus]

might sanctify and cleanse

it

[his church]

with the washing of water by the word.

Ephesians 5:26

And of course,

Jesus washes us and cleanses us through repentance.

First Prayer


Dear God,

I went AWOL today.

I didn't put on my armor.

I didn't show up for you today.

I let my mind and my emotions run amuck.

I showed  - little to no -  self-control in the areas
you are working with me on.

I let the things of this world capture and draw
my attention.

I let selfishness and self-centeredness gain ground in me.

I messed up.

I really messed up.

Forgive me.

Help me to conquer these emotions of
discouragement,
frustration, and sadness.

Help me to be determined to put on my ARMOR
and
Stand Strong and Mighty in the Power of God.


Pour your love on me.

Remind me that you treasure and adore me.

Revive my enthusiasm for experiencing victory in Christ.

Refresh me.

Refocus me.

Renew my mind and reinvigorate my emotions.

Re-energize me.

I want to cooperate with you.

I will try to stir up right thoughts in my heart.


Thank you that I am

fully forgiven, fully loved, and fully accepted by you.


In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen

God,

I showed up today.

I put on my armor.

I went on the battlefield.

And

I messed up.

I really messed up.

Forgive me.

Pour your love on me.

Remind me that you treasure and adore me.

Revive me.

Refresh me.

Refocus me.

Renew my mind and reinvigorate my emotions.

Re-energize me.

I will stir up thoughts of STRENGTH, BOLDNESS, and VICTORY.

I will be comforted as I remind myself that tomorrow is a new day.

I may have been sidelined somewhat today, but I am not defeated.

The Belt of Truth tells me that I was born to be a Champion for Jesus Christ.

So I will get back up and walk in my rightful position!

Thank you that I am fully forgiven, fully loved, and fully accepted by you.

Amen
