DAILY PRAYER from Germaine Copeland ... author of "Prayers that Avail Much"
Day 18: Pray that you will be salt and light today and that you will be a good influence to those around you today. The average person who just lives a normal non-eventful life will influence 10,000 people in his lifetime. People are watching you. Ask God to allow His Spirit to be in control of your heart today, through meditated words of life.
DAILY PRAYER from Germaine Copeland ... author of "Prayers that Avail Much"
Free From Fear
The grandmother called to talk about the fear that she lived with. She was so afraid that something dreadful might happen to her husband, children or grandchildren. How could she overcome this torment? We prayed for her family from Psalm 91. You can turn fear out of doors by declaring your faith in God's Word. Praying aloud will stop the tormenting thoughts. Believe God; He is faithful, and He watches over His word to perform it.
PRAYER:
Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank You for delivering me from the fear of death. You are with me; I will not be afraid. You are my God, and I will not be dismayed. I have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but I have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. Amen.

Lord Jesus, Help me to be salt and light today. May I be a good influence to my students and in my Bible study. May they see Your light shine through me.
Holy Spirit, Take control of me. May You control my heart, my words and my actions. May the Word I read today be reflected in me. May I meditate on the verses from today's prayer and the ones that we looked at in our Bible Study about "fear".
Thank You that You have told us not to fear but also have shown us how not to fear but be strong in Your power and Your love.
Father, It is so like You that the prayer here today and the theme in Bible study would go together. Thank You that You have not given me a spirit of fear, but one of love and power and a sound mind.
Your Word in Psalms 34 tells me that when I seek You, Lord, You will answer me and deliver me from all my fears. Thank You, that in the name of Jesus, I am delivered from the fear of death and the power of sin and death over me. I have received the Spirit of adoption. I love You Abba, Father.
I love You, Jesus, my Lord. Thank You for showing us how to pray to Abba as our Papa and grow closer to You!
