my strength is in the Lord

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. -Ephesians 6:10

Lord, may I find strength in YOU; not in my own body. May I relinquish control and know that YOU are strong. You are the God of strength.

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. -Ephesians 6:11-12

Father, may I trust that you are able to stand against the devil. I know that is the Truth - may you give me abundant faith that I believe that. Remind me that we are not fighting against humans, but this battle is against darkness. Equip me and make me a strong warrior for Your Kingdom. 

Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. -Ephesians 6:13

Lord, help me to stand firm. I don't want to be like the waves of the ocean. Help me Lord to stand firm in your Truth.

Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. -Ephesians 6:14-15

May I be armored and ready by tightening the belt of truth, and putting on the breastplate of righteousness, and shoes that make me ready. In you, I am strong. Remind me that my strength is from you, not from me.

In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God,  praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. -Ephesians 6:16-18

Lord, may I always have the shield of faith, protecting me against my unbelief. I don't want to be lukewarm. Make me on fire for you, Lord. May I proudly put on the helmet of salvation, humbly remembering that my salvation is not from works. May that helmet never leave my head. May I actually believe that you have given me all the tools to FIGHT the enemy Lord. Please.

And Lord, when I am weak and when I forget can you remind me? Swiftly, do not let me fall from you Lord. I love you. I pray that I always seek you in prayer. I can't do this without you Lord. Thank you Lord for making it easy to come to you even when I've drifted away. You are my God, remind me and please Lord may I be faithful and honorable to you.
