Romans 15:13

"May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope."

Kay Arthur, As Silver Refined

"I don't have to __________ because I've been freed from sin's power and I can walk in newness of life. I will not yield the members of my body (including my mind) to be an instrument of unrighteousness. I thank You that sin shall not be master over me because I am under grace, and therefore I have You in the power of Your Spirit living within me:" (204).

"God, I know I am really, truly Yours. I know You hear and answer my prayers. Lord Jesus, You are my Lord and Master. I believe You died for my sins. I believe I can have Your righteousness. I believe my body is Your temple. Thank You, Lord, that You have brought me into Your family by faith. Father, thank You for giving Your Son for my sins so that I might never ever perish but have eternal life.

God, I believe I am Your child--not because of anything I've done, but because of what Jesus did on Calvary. And I want to bring You glory.

You are God. You are the sovereign God of all the universe. I submit myself to You. Lord, take me, receive me. I cry, "Abba, Father.' I trust You. At times I'm a little afraid, but I trust You.

Father, thank You for Your Word. Father, may I now in meekness continue to receive the engrafted Word, the implanted Word. May I allow it to take root in my heart that I might be rooted and grounded and established in the faith.

Because of Your presence and Your power within me, I know I can be an overcomer--day by day, for the rest of my days on earth. For Your Word says, "Whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world--our faith.' I believe that Jesus is the Son of God" (213).

2 Chronicles 16:9

"The eyes of the LORD range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him."

Colossians 4:17

"Pay attention to the ministry you have received in the LORD, so that you can accomplish it."
