## Written prayer

Today I declare that a new day is upon me! Today I declare that living a victorious life is my new norm and not my exception. As the victory over my circumstances increases I will not act as Saul in 1 Samuel 13 and allow my ambition and anxieties to cause me to move and act on the things that You’ve commanded me to wait on. Holy Spirit, quicken my courage so that I will not let the appearance of troubles cause me to step outside of my character and God given peace. I will wait patiently for You and Your instructions as it pertains to the plans for my future. I denounce negative prideful behaviors and arrogance from my mind. I declare that I am calm, centered, and clear headed in the face of trials, for I know that You are always with me. I thank You that my resolve has been strengthened and that my reliance is on my obedience which pleases You more than my sacrifices!

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
