STAY STANDING SPOKEN WORD

I would have lost heart unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living

And it’s in the living that I see His goodness daily following me hand in hand with new mercies

I’m surrounded by songs of deliverance as my Champion Defender fights my battles, I’m reminded to stay suited up in His full armor so that I can withstand

Withstand every wile of the enemy

My feet are shod with the preparation of the Gospel of peace

Every place the soles of my feet step, i lay claim and reclaim what has been stolen back multifold

I am unashamed of the Gospel, the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, the power that raised Jesus that resurrected me from death to life, darkness to light, now dwells inside of me, it is for freedom He set me free

My waist is girded with truth, His truth, the only truth

Jesus-the way, truth and life, there is salvation no other way

It is only by the blood of Jesus that we are forgiven

With sins cast as far as the east from the west, thrown into the sea of forgetfulness, He remembers them no more

The price paid in full at calvary, my Savior nailed to a cross and uttered the words “IT IS FINISHED” the ultimate sacrifice eternally interceding at the right hand of the Father until He comes again to redeem His pure and spotless bride

I put on the breastplate of righteousness, reminding my heart that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. 

Above all else, I guard my heart. Lord, create in me continually a clean heart as You lead my life in the way everlasting. 

I have been bought with a price, redeemed and You call me Your very own-beloved and chosen, created with a purpose and designed for destiny. I will live in the fullness of my identity in Christ, never living less than the abundant life He came to give me.

My shield of faith will quench every fiery dart of the evil one. I walk by faith, not by sight. I believe the report of the Lord over every other voice. He takes me from faith to faith, glory to glory. 

I will live a life of unwavering, relentless faith that please Him. Faith that comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God,

So I will wield my sword of the Spirit with divine accuracy. I will study to show myself approved, rightly dividing the Word of truth. 

I will build my life on the firm foundation of His Word, knowing it is eternal, Holy Spirit inspired and created by His very breath. 

It is sharp, living and active.

It teaches, rebukes, corrects and trains me in righteousness so that I am thoroughly equipped for every good work.

My head is adorned with the helmet of salvation as I work out my salvation with fear and trembling. I have a sound mind, the mind of Christ. 

I am confident that I have eternal life and it’s only because of the Author of life itself, Jesus. 

There is no other name by which we can be saved.

If we confess our Him as Lord and believe in Him, we will be saved. 

Saved to know Him now and live with Him in Heaven eternally.

Stay suited up.

Stay surrendered.

Stay standing.
