Page 30 - Power Guide - January week 1 2019 FINAL

Omnipotent Father, this day we commit, as a Church
Family, to search for You and for Your strength
continually. We declare that we will not be afraid, for
You are with us. We will not be discouraged, for You
are our God. You will strengthen and help us. You will
hold us up with Your victorious right hand. We know
that for the life of God to thrive among us, there must
be harmony and unity between us. We refuse to bring
sorrow to the Holy Spirit by living and operating in a
way that is outside of Your will. We assert ourselves
as a body of believers to rid our Church family of all
bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, slander, as well
as all types of evil behavior. We will demonstrate
that we have passed from death to life by loving our
Christian brothers and sisters. We confess that we
have all been baptized into one body by one Spirit
and we all share that same Spirit. Therefore, we
decree and declare that we will not be selfish or try
to impress others. But we will be humble, thinking of
others as better than ourselves. We will not look out
only for our own interests, but we will take an interest
in others too. We decree that we will build each other
up in our most holy faith. We will pray in the power
of the Holy Spirit, and we will await the mercy of our
Lord Jesus Christ, who will bring us eternal life. In
this way, we will keep ourselves safe in God’s love.

Holy Spirit, show me how I can defeat strife and division
within our Church Family today:
