Declare with me:
I am filled with God’s strength, and I can do whatever I need to do everyday. Because You live in my heart, I believe I can do anything today, with Your help.
MY CONFESSION
I AM BREAKING NEW GROUNDS BY THE REDEMPTIVE POWER IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!
Don’t just “try” to be strong, but instead go to God for your strength, knowing that He can enable you to do all things through Him.
When the Holy Spirit is on the inside, His strength will show up on the outside.
When we are strong inwardly—in our determination, thoughts, and attitudes—as well as strong in our faith, we can do whatever we need to do in life. Pray about this daily for yourself and your family.

GOD'S STRENGTH IN YOU
"I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit." - Ephesians 3:16 (NLT)
The old covenant focused on what man could do, but the new covenant focuses on what God has done for us in Jesus Christ (see Romans 5).
Declare with me:
Lord, help me see myself the way You see me, as a new creature in You.
Jesus took the punishment that we deserve and promises that if we will believe in Him and all that He did for us, He will forever stand in our place, and our responsibility to keep the law will be met in Him.
It is a better covenant—far superior to the old. The old covenant was initiated with the blood of animals, but the new was initiated with the sinless blood of Jesus Christ.
A mutual consent or agreement of two or more persons under the old covenant, our sin could be covered by the sacrifices of animals, but never removed. The sense of guilt connected to sin was always present.
But the good news is that God has made a new covenant with man.
I will imprint My laws upon their hearts, and I will inscribe them on their minds (on their inmost thoughts and understanding)."
— Hebrews 10:16 (AMPC)

THE NEW COVENANT
"This is the agreement (testament, covenant) that I will set up and conclude with them after those days, says the Lord:
Declare with me:
My Father, help me today to see how You are working in my life and give me the grace I need to grow. Thank You for always being there for me, and for working in me and through me to bring about real maturity.
I encourage you today to ask God for the grace to appreciate and grow, even in the difficult things you’re facing. When you do, He’ll work in and through you to accomplish it (see Philippians 2:13).
I encourage you today to ask God for the grace to appreciate and grow, even in the difficult things you’re facing. When you do, He’ll work in and through you to accomplish it (see Philippians 2:13).
To be truly victorious, we need to grow to the place where we’re not afraid of hard times but are actually challenged by them, because God uses them to ultimately prepare us for the good times.
