You Are The Center of My Life

O Lord, You are the center of my life.  Because of Your faithfulness, I will always praise You.  Because of Your selfless service, I will always serve You.  Because I need You with me, I will always keep You in my heart.  Since I have seen the working of Your awesome power, I know You will keep me safe.  I submit only to You, and I am filled with joy as I learn to give of myself to You each day.  My life is prosperous whenever I listen to You and act on Your wise counsel.  Because of my need for Your involvement in my life, I will forever be on the lookout for what You want me to do next.  I can stand firm against the attacks of my enemies and whatever challenges may come my way knowing that You are standing with me.  Only when I am under Your protective covering can I truly rest.  Because of Your promise to never leave or forsake me, I know that my life will be filled with Your goodness.

My experience has taught me that … Your way is the right way … Your truth can always be relied upon … and, Your light shows me how to avoid errors in judgement.  Your way leads me to life and an abundance of blessings.  Your truth gives me the wisdom to make good choices.  Your light allows me to see my way so I do not go astray.  Your way is the best way to a trouble-free life.  Your truth passes all tests of time and turns away the darkness.  By uniting my life with Yours, I surround myself with all the benefits of a holy life.  Your Word tells me that Your way is a narrow one, but I have the confidence that You will help me live in accordance with its requirements.  I am blessed that You have shared with me the path to Heaven, success, and a prosperous life.  The example of Your righteous life shines ever brightly before me and guides me into what is right.

With You at the center of my life, what can overtake me that You cannot help me handle?  With You at the center of my life, what deception or trickery can keep me from clinging to You?  With You at the center of my life, sin can no longer shackle me to evil desires or lustful inclinations.  With You at the center of my life, what weapon can be formed against me that will prevail or harm me?  With You at the center of my life, how can hopelessness and depression take control of my life stealing my joy and my will to persevere?  With You at the center of my life, fear/worry/doubt have no place because Your goodness fills me, and I feel safe.  With You at the center of my life, death’s sting has been removed and I am the recipient of eternal life.  With You at the center of my life, I am now complete, my needs are met, I have divine health and my future is secure.  And it’s in Jesus’ name I pray.  AMEN!!

Psalm 91:1-2 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.  I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust.”
