If you struggle with thoughts and feelings like this, read the teaching note below, and pray the powerful prayer that follows it for an abundant life in Christ! 

Teaching Note

If you’re a believer in Jesus Christ of Nazareth, you’ve already died. You’ve died to the flesh, and you’re alive in Christ. Jesus Christ lives within you. He is your life. You don’t rely on yourself for life. Jesus is already working in you. He has all the power inside of you, so whatever burdens you’re carrying, throw them off. Those burdens died a long time ago. Now you’re only yoked to Jesus Christ and your burden is light and easy. He’s in you. He’s alive in you!

Pray Out Loud

• “Heavenly Father, Father God, thank You for my life. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. You knew me before I was even born. Thank You, Father God, for Your great plans for my life. Thank You, Father God, for Your Son, Jesus Christ, who already died for me. When He died on the Cross, all my pain, all my worries, and all my struggles died on the Cross with Him. He took it away from me. Thank You, Jesus. It didn’t end at the Cross. Thank You, Jesus, that You rose from the dead, and I rose with You. I am alive in You, Jesus, and You are alive in me, Jesus. We are one!

 

• “Thank You, Father God, for this gift. You gave me Your Holy Spirit. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for being inside of me. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for all of Your gifts. I have love. I have joy. I have peace. I have self control. I walk in the light of the Lord. I do not walk on my own strength. It’s Jesus Christ who lives within me. I’m arising and walking in Your light. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Holy Spirit. 

 

• “Heavenly Father, Father God, I ask, in the name of Jesus, for a refreshing of Your Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit. Pour a fresh anointing on my shoulders. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Right now, I believe that the anointing of the Holy Spirit is on me. I proclaim that it is written, ‘the anointing breaks the yoke,’ so I command every yoke of fear, every yoke of rejection, every yoke of heaviness, every yoke that is not of God to be broken off me now, in the name of Jesus. 

 

• “I command every lying, tormenting thought to be evicted from my mind now, in the name of Jesus Christ. I invite You, King Jesus, into my thoughts to redeem them. I invite You, King Jesus, into my heart to redeem my emotions for I am only yoked to Jesus Christ, and His burden is easy and light and joyful. I renounce all death. I renounce all fear of death. I renounce all thoughts of death. I renounce all thoughts that are not of God. I want to live! I want to live and walk with You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus, for carrying all my burdens. I feel light. I feel refreshed. I am redeemed. I am healed. I am whole. I am Shalom, in Jesus Christ’s name. Amen and so be it!”
