FREEDOM AND HEALING THROUGH TRUTH
I am speaking the truth to myself and prospering in all things and in health. The truth makes me free! I am recognizing who I am now in Christ, my new identity, and live accordingly, recognizing that my old sin nature is dead. So I am telling myself who I really am now in Christ, free from sin and death and alive to God. Christ, the Spirit of freedom, lives in me; therefore I walk in freedom. Now Christ is my life. 3 John 1:2-4; Rom. 6:5-10; 2 Cor. 3:17; Col. 3:1-3; John 8:32
I am acting according to who I really am NOW “in Christ”, free and healed and overcoming bondage and sickness by faith and love. I live by faith, not by sight, and believe the word, not what I see or hear, and walk in love and forgive. I’m getting off of the destructive wide road of bondage and sickness, and getting on the path of righteousness for His names sake through faith and love. I live in the Spirit of life and peace, faith and love, grace and truth by believing and speaking God’s word. John 8:36; 1 Peter 2:24; 2 Cor. 5:7; 1 John 5:4; Ps. 23:3; Rom. 8:6; 10:4; Gal. 5:6
I speak the truth in love, and grow to become in every respect mature in Christ. Since I have been raised with Christ and have the Holy Spirit to guide me, I set my heart on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God, where love, truth, mercy, grace, and supply are abundant! I set my mind on things above, not on earthly things, like sin or sickness. I keep my thoughts on whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely, and of a good report. If there is anything excellent or praiseworthy I choose to think on those things. Because I died, sin is not who I am now. I’m no longer a slave to sin, but a slave to righteousness by giving my thoughts to obey Christ and my mouth to speak the truth. My life is now hidden with Christ in God. Eph. 4:15; Col. 1:1-3; John 16:13; Gal. 2:20; Rom. 6:17-20; Phil. 4:8; 2 Cor. 10:5
So then, just as I received Christ Jesus as Lord, I continue to live my life in Him by faith and overflow with thankfulness. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth what God says concerning every issue in my life. I am going to be constantly renewed in the attitude of my mind and put on my new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness. Because I am in Christ, I am a new creation and all things are new. The old me, who set my mind and heart on sin and sickness, has gone; the new me, who believes I’m free, healed, and righteous now lives. Col. 2:6-7; Rom. 10:10; Eph. 4:23-24; 2 Cor. 5:17-21
Now I walk in the Holy Spirit, rejoicing, praying, and giving thanks continually, and He guides me into all truth. This keeps me from fulfilling the desires of the flesh. I abide in the truth and the truth makes me free. I have the fruit of the Spirit in me and love all people, am joyful in all circumstances, and am patient and kind! God’s Spirit in me guides me to forgive, not keep records of wrongs, to be faithful and gentle, and to be self-controlled. I now live and walk in the Spirit and have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. I am controlled by the Spirit, being spiritually minded, and enjoying God’s thoughts of life and peace! 1 Thess. 5:16-19; Gal. 5:16; John 8:31-32; Gal. 5:22-25; 1 Cor. 13:4-8; Rom. 8:6
I am strong in the Lord and stand when evil or temptation comes, by speaking the truth that I am free indeed in Christ and by His stripes I am healed. I am the righteousness of God in Christ and count myself dead to sin! Jesus told me that in Him I have peace, freedom, and healing and that in the world I will have tribulation and trials. I will do God’s will and be full of good cheer and rejoice in His salvation. When I’m facing trials or temptation, Jesus is my Peace, Freedom, and Healing. He is in me and I’ve overcome the fear, bondage, and sickness of the world! Eph. 6:10-15; John 8:36; 2 Cor. 5:21; Rom. 6:11; John 14:27; 16:33
The Holy Spirit is in me and is greater than the tempter and destroyer who is in the world coming against me! God’s word is life and power and will always overcome words that lead to death and destruction. God is for me and not against me. He has given up His own Son. How will He not also freely along with Christ give me a new mind and heart that makes me free from sin and sickness? I can do nothing apart from God, but I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. His thoughts heal and deliver me, and make me whole. Thank You, Jesus, for Your strength to fast and pray and break free from sin and sickness. 1 John 4:4; Rom. 8:32; John 15:5; Phil. 4:13; Isa. 58:6; Heb. 4:12; Prov. 18:21; Ps. 107:20; 1 Thess. 5:23-24
I confess my sins of _______ that I may be healed. My prayers of faith as the righteousness of God in Christ are powerful and effective. I do not conceal sin because then I will not prosper. I quickly confess, renounce and forsake sin and obtain God’s mercy. In Jesus’ name I declare by faith that I don’t crave sin. I hunger and thirst for righteousness and am filled with God’s love and truth.
For the heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty, and the drowsiness [of overindulgence] will clothe one with rags. I died to self and all overindulgence of every kind and now I live in Christ and His Spirit of peace and self-control. God clothes me with His power. I do not set my heart on what I will eat or drink; and I do not worry about it. For the pagan world runs after all such things. My Father knows that I need them so I seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to me as well. I am not afraid. My Father has been pleased to give me the kingdom.
I bless and inherit blessings. I live by faith and love and know God’s love, Jesus, that surpasses knowledge, and am filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. God does exceedingly, abundantly, above all that I think or imagine through His love in me. I forgive and receive a cup running over. Jesus has given me life more abundantly! Prov. 23:21; 28:13; James 5:15-16; Matt. 5:6; Rom. 6:3-4; Eph. 3:16-20; John 10:10; Luke 12:28-32; Acts 1:8
