Father, old things have passed away in my life and the new has come. I refuse to look at them any longer except to allow for the manifest presence of Christ to destroy any vestige or fragment left over capable of coming against Your purposes and plans for my life. Instead of focusing on the lack I so often see in myself I choose to I set my face like flint and press on. Yes, I press on to a higher calling. I press on to a higher vision…a vision born of Your heart for me and all those I love. Once again, I confess that it is not about me. It is all about You…it is all about Kingdom. It is about restoration of all things and You have given me a part to play. I am taking dominion of all you have given me charge of. I am not insignificant to the plans and purposes You wish to accomplish on the Earth.

As I sit in Your presence I will absorb every portion of Your being. I will absorb every truth and Word you speak to me. Come and penetrate the deepest places of my heart and mind. Penetrate to the very internal subconscious regions of my thinking from whence actions come. . In Your presence I am renewed…I am restored. Right now…this very moment…I declare that darkness is fleeing and Your light has come for Your mercies are new every morning…every moment. Your grace is all sufficient for the restoration of my entire being.

I receive Your goodness—Your kindness which flows to me from the depths of Your heart. The gates of purpose and destiny are swinging wide open. Favor, blessing and honor are mine as I dwell in You. All that has been stolen is being returned multiplied unto me. Spring is arising in my heart. The Son is shining and the rain of Your presence is softening the soil of my heart. I am being made new. Flowers of provision in every area of my life are popping up just as I need them. I am being prepared to fly. Spring is here and my love is awakened.

I receive Your word as a living word. Every syllable of Your word implanted within My heart will not return void. It will accomplish and bring about your purposes within me and around me. Go deep into the hidden places, hidden even to me, and cut away anything which prohibits me from walking in Your fullness.

Lord let Your light shine into the darkest, most hidden places of my heart. My identity is in You. Show me who I am. I long to know You as I am known and it is Your will and desire that do so. All that I will be is already accomplished in You. You are my Resurrection and my Life. On this journey of intimate pursuit I will leave the past behind. Worry for my future will have no place of habitation in my heart. I am and will be forever content in Your presence…content to rest in the assurance of Your everlasting love and friendship. Even now Your blood…Your sacrifice permeates my heart, my past and my future.

Lord, you are my dream maker…my dream fulfiller in every way. There is none like You. When my hope has become deferred, denial and apathy can become ways for me to escape looking at areas of struggle. Please forgive me for having a heart of apathy in any area of my life. Forgive me for thinking denial will somehow save me from having to deal with things…somehow save me from any pain. True to Your Word, You never quit working in my life and out of Your love, mercy and grace You allow things to come up and disturb my false sense of peace. Denial is indeed a thin and deceptive shield which solves absolutely nothing.

I come into the garden of our relationship and pick fresh flowers every day. I feed on the manna of Your Word morning by morning, evening by evening. I taste and see that You are good. As I draw from Your presence I am a fresh bouquet of flowers dispensing Your fragrance everywhere I go and in everything I do. I let go of the memories I hold on to in favor of fresh revelation and truth. I learn from the lessons of the past and they enable me to succeed with humility in the moment and the days to come. I discard all old flowers and manna to walk in the garden with You.
