Praying for Greater Faith

Your Word, Lord God, renews my mind so I am able to prove what Your Will is in my life – Your good, acceptable, and perfect Will (Romans 12:2).  Your wonderful Word also imparts faith to my heart (Romans 10:17).  I will meditate upon the principles of Your Word, for then my faith will grow, and I will be blessed (Psalm 1:2).

I know it is impossible to please You without faith, so I come to You fully believing in You and knowing You will reward me for diligently seeking You (Hebrews 11:6).  Thank You for enabling me to have faith in You and Your Word.  The faith You have imparted to me is the substance of things I hope for and the evidence of things I do not yet see (Hebrews 11:1).  I realize the things visible are temporary and subject to change, but things unseen with the human eye are eternal (2 Corinthians 4:18).

Through faith I am able to understand so many things, including the concept that the very worlds of the universe were framed by Your Word.  This helps me understand that things seen were not made of things I can perceive.  Instead, they were made by Your unseen hand, O Lord (Hebrews 11:3).  Therefore, I choose to walk by faith and not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). Through faith, You enable me to subdue kingdoms, work the works of righteousness, obtain all Your promises, and even stop the mouths of lions (Hebrews 11:33).  Through faith I shall be able to turn my weaknesses into strengths, become valiant in all struggles, and turn my enemies away (Hebrews 11:34).  Thank You, gracious Father, for increasing my faith through Your Word.

Great is Your faithfulness, O God (1 Corinthians 10:13), and I draw near to You now with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having my heart sprinkled and purified from an evil consciousness by the blood of Christ Jesus.  It is this truth that enables me to hold fast the profession of my faith without wavering, knowing You are always faithful to Your promises (Hebrews 10:22-23). 

I desire to always be faithful in every area of my life because a faithful man shall abound with blessings (Proverbs 28:20).  I yield myself to the work and power of Your Holy Spirit, who enables me to walk in faithfulness (Galatians 5:22-23). I praise You because I believe You are producing the fruit of faithfulness in my life, for I know this is Your Will for me.  Thank You for teaching me to be faithful, to be more like Jesus every day (Revelation 1:5).

O Faithful Father, I know You are always there for me.  Not one word of all Your good promises has ever failed (1 Kings 8:56), and I know You will never leave me nor forsake me (Hebrews 13:5).  I rejoice in the certain knowledge, Father, that You are my very present help in all my times of need (Psalm 46:1).  Even when I am lacking in faith, Father, You are always faithful to me (2 Timothy 2:13).  I know You know me because I am Yours (2 Timothy 2:19).  How I thank You that I am Your servant, and You always deal well with me. 

Thank You, loving Father, for always being faithful to Your Word (Psalm 119:65).  It gives me great confidence to realize Your Word will never return to You empty, but it will always accomplish what You desire, and will achieve the purposes You have in mind (Isaiah 55:11).  You always have, and I know You always will, faithfully accomplish Your purposes in my life (1 Thessalonians 5:24).  I know You will keep me, Father (Genesis 28:15).  Your Word never fails (Joshua 23:14).  Thank You so very much for loving me (1 John 4:19).
