My body is a temple for the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19), redeemed (Eph. 1:7; Ps. 107:2), cleansed (1 John 1:7), and sanctified by the Blood of Jesus (Heb. 13:12). My members—the parts of my body—are instruments of righteousness (Rom. 6:13), yielded to God for his service and for his glory. The devil has no place in me, no power over me, no unsettled claims on me. All has been settled by the Blood of Jesus (Rom. 8:33-34). I overcome Satan by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of my testimony, and I do not love my life so much that I fear death (Rev. 12:11). My body is for the Lord and the Lord is for my body (1 Cor. 6:13).

I am not just an ordinary person; I am a child of the living God. I am an heir of God and a joint heir with Jesus Christ. I am part of a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation; I am one of God’s people (Gal. 4:6-7; 1 Pet. 2:9).

I am not under guilt or condemnation. There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Satan is a liar. I will not listen to his accusations. No weapon formed against me will prosper (Rom. 8:1; Isa. 54:17).

My mind is being renewed by the Word of God. I pull down strongholds, I cast down imaginations, and I force every thought to obey Christ (2 Cor. 10:4; Rom. 12:2).

I am accepted by God. If God is for me, who can be against me? Nothing can separate me from the love of Christ (Rom. 8:35-39).

Satan is defeated: the Son of God came into the world to destroy the works of the devil. No longer will he oppress me. I defeat Satan and all his demons by the Blood of the Lamb, by the word of my testimony, not even fearing death. I submit to God; I resist the devil and he must flee from me NOW!! (Rev. 12:11; James 4:7-8).

No temptation will overtake me that is not common to man. But God is faithful; He will not let me be tempted beyond my strength but with the temptation will also provide a way of escape that I may be able to endure it (1 Cor. 10:13).

I give no place for fear in my life. That which a man fears comes upon him. The fear of man brings a snare, but perfect love casts out fear. I sought the Lord and he heard me and delivered me from all my fears (2 Tim. 1:7.; 1 John 4:18; Ps. 34:4).

The Lord is my light and my Salvation; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; Of whom shall I be afraid? God is my refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore I will not fear (Ps. 27:1; Ps. 46:1-2).

I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God unto Salvation to those who believe (Rom. 1:16). 

I am a believer, not a doubter. I have faith towards God. My faith is not in myself or in the realm of my feelings, but in a living God who will never fail me nor forsake me. I walk by faith and not by sight (2 Cor. 5:7).

I will be anxious for nothing. He will keep me in perfect peace, for my mind is stayed upon him (Phil. 4:6-7; Isa. 26:3).

I choose this day to live by faith, to walk by faith, and to see with the eyes of faith. I will go from faith to faith, from strength to strength, from glory to glory (Rom. 1:17.; 2 Cor. 5:7).

I look not to the healing but to the healer: Jesus Christ, my Lord. My body is for the Lord and the Lord is for my body. He took away my sickness and carried all my diseases. By his stripes I am healed. The same spirit that raised Christ from the dead is at work in my body, giving me life (1 Pet. 2:24; Matt. 8:16-17).
