Man After God’s Heart

And I will bring the blind by a way that they know not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known. I will make darkness into light before them and make uneven places into a plain. These things I have determined to do [for them]; and I will not leave them forsaken. (Isaiah 42:16 Amplified)

Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore will I deliver him; I will set him on high, because he knows and understands My name [has a personal knowledge of My mercy, love, and kindness--trusts and relies on Me, knowing I will never forsake him, no, never].He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him My salvation. (Psalm 91:14-16 Amplified)

I am a man after the Lord’s own heart and the Word planted in me is now pushing roots downward and growing fruit upward for I am a oak of righteousness planted by streams of Living Water and I bring forth fruit in my own life and family and in my city in it due season. Everything I do shall prosper as my soul prospers.

You, Lord, are my light and my shield, an every present help in time of trouble, therefore; I declare today that according to Your Word each and every step I take is ordered by You. Every rough place is made smooth…every uneven place is made into a plain. I do not falter…I stand upright in a large place meant just for me. My heart trusts in the Lord. The goodness and mercy of the Lord follow me in all I do and in all I am a part of. The love of the Lord is set upon me and I am in His fixed gaze. My face is set like flint and I shall not be confused or put to shame as I look to the mountains from whence my help comes from. I declare, “My help comes from the Lord!”

Yes, the Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? NO ONE. The light of the Lord is this very moment illumining my darkness for the Lord is ever present with me and never forsakes me or His Word to me.

As I decree the Word of the Lord to me, my path is being bathed in light, revelation, wisdom, understanding and a deep and intimate knowledge the Lord’s plan for me. I am one who walks uprightly with a heart of faith and do not waver with the shifting winds of doubt and unbelief. I have the mind of Christ and contain the thoughts and intents of the Lord’s heart, therefore; I hear the Shepherd’s voice and I do not follow another.

Every promise given to me is yes and amen…and they will be fulfilled in the proper time and place. I do not have fear, but I do have love, power and a sound mind and do discern the timing and purposes of the Lord.

I am not missing, nor will I miss, one plan or purpose You have for me for the eyes of my heart are opened and I am receiving the Light. Today Lord, I gird myself with the Word and the promises You have made to me and press on to my high calling in You.  I REST in the green pastures and still waters of Your living continually in the righteousness, joy and peace of the Holy Spirit. I am at rest…Amen
