Pastor Harry's Recommendation For Starting Your Day:

'I am a child of God. I am redeemed from the hand of the enemy. I am forgiven. I am saved by grace through faith. I am justified, sanctified. I am a new creature. I am a partaker of the divine nature. I am redeemed from the curse of the law. I am delivered from the powers of darkness. I am led by the spirit of God. I am a son of God. I am kept in safety wherever I go. I am getting all my needs met by Jesus. I am strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.

I am an heir of God and a joint heir with Jesus. I am an heir to the blessings of Abraham. I am an heir of eternal life. I am blessed with all spiritual blessings. I am healed by his stripes. I am more than a conqueror. I am daily overcoming the devil. I am being transformed by the renewing of my mind. I am a laborer together with God. I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I am an imitator of Jesus. I am the light of the world.

Friends, if you read that through every day as you began the beginning of your day, would it make a difference? I’ve got to believe that when you stop to consider who God says you are, that’s got to do something for your self-esteem, no matter how good or how bad it might be.

And how you live that day and how you see that day and the events of that day, in light of the promises that God makes to you with regard to who you are and what you have in him, has got to make a difference. Walking with God involves living in light of His promises.'
