12. Confessing from my eyes

Father, in Deut 7: 17 You ask the Israelites how You can dispossess the "-kites" in the promised land if they, the Israelites say, "These nations are greater than us".

Oh Lord, forgive me for the many times I looked on a situation with my natural eyes and confessed unbelief - about a promise You had clearly given me in the 
Word. 

May I know Your Word well with both my head and my heart so that the enemy knows it's a waste of time to try his old "Did God really say...?" on me. May the spiritual revelations of Your covenant promises grow deep roots in my spirit so that I can stand firm when standing is required. 

May I desist from looking at myself and my strength, my previous achievements or connections (Ps 20: 7). I choose to listen to the Spirit and commit to walk in faith, because You fight my battles for me. 

Promised future of mine, irrespective of how impossible you may seem to the natural eye ito required finances, skills, clients, cooperation from others, etc. I will trust in the name that is above every other name. Even when I'm small in comparison to a promise, an enemy, a vision, even when there is not logical or reasonable way for me to hold on to a promise from the Word, I will remember that He Who promised, committed Himself to His Word (Ps 138: 2) and cannot lie (Rom 3: 4).

I will no longer confess doubt and unbelief and thereby limit You, Father.
