June Targeted Devotional Prayers

Jesus we are eager to live Your faith rest life. When we step into Your rest, it displaces anything trying to oppose our peace. We choose to be anxious for nothing but in everything we give You thanks. 

You allow us to experience our greatest joy in the midst of our greatest difficulties. In our time of trouble, You hide us in the secret place that is visible but beyond the reach of the enemy. You set a table before us in the presence of our enemies. In every conflict You hide us and in every conflict You set a table for us. We are seated with You in heavenly places where rest is a tangible expression of Your presence. We collapse into You Jesus as You refresh us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. 

Lord, we are serious about living this new resurrection life with You. We pursue the things You preside over. We are seated with You in Heavenly realms. Rather than become absorbed with what’s right in front of our eyes, we look up and stay alert to what is going on around You. We love to see with Your perspective.

Rest is a tangible expression of Your presence. We feel Your touch and hear Your voice clearly when we practice rest. We wield rest as a powerful weapon to guard our inner territory. We thank You Jesus that Your rest is always available to us. 

We live in an unbroken experience of the immeasurable riches of Your grace. We live in a constant experience of Your goodness and kindness. You created us for love. We are not the initiator of love, but the recipient of love from a Father whose heart is rashived over us. We respond to the romancing of Holy Spirit as we embrace the passionate love Jesus has for us.

You leave Your peace with us so that our hearts are not troubled or fearful. We gratefully accept Your peace and choose to walk in it. We come to You with our weariness and heavy burdens to exchange for Your rest. We take Your yoke upon us for Your burden is light and You give us rest for our souls. 

You are teaching us how to access the deep well of Your Spirit. We are learning to behold You and come into Your peace. You are stripping away our capacity for anxiety and negative mindsets. Your peace removes our tiredness as it refreshes and empowers us.

We link our head and our heart as we learn from You. We submit our soul to our spirit and pick up Your rest as a weapon. We push away negative thinking, we refuse anxiety and we say no to fear and intimidation. We enter a bold new place of peace where our confidence in You makes things easy, private and cheerful.

We say of You Lord, that You are our refuge, our fortress and our God in whom we trust. We abide in the Shadow of the Almighty. We always have access to Your presence. We live in the manifestation of Your abiding Presence. We live with continuous affection for the person of the Holy Spirit. We dwell in the heartbeat of a God who absolutely adores us and we experience closeness and tenderness with our Beloved Jesus. 

We empower You in our lives as we declare back Your promises to us. Because we make You our dwelling place and our refuge, no evil shall befall us. We will not be afraid of the terror by night or the arrow that flies by day. You are watching over our mind, heart and thoughts and protecting us from harm from the enemy's negative “thought” arrows. You have given Your angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. Because we have set our heart of affection upon you, You greatly protect us. You set us in a high place, safe and secure before Your face. You answer our cry for help every time we pray.

You are our refuge and our strength, our very present help in trouble. Therefore we do not fear. We are still in the knowledge that You are God. We taste and see that You are good. Every taste of Your presence and Goodness is an invitation to more. 

We ask You to ignite our hearts with passion for more of You. There is no limit to Your presence. You give without measure, always more than enough. Holy Spirit, we cry out for more and more of You, for greater measures of Your presence to flood our life. 

We invite You to come and come and come, Lord Jesus, overwhelm us with Your presence.
