For a more enriching experience,
go down on your knees to pray or take it one step further
and prostrate yourself (lay face down) on the floor while praying.
Father, I believe Your Word concerning health and healing. I believe that Your Word will not return to You void and will accomplish what You said. I believe that I am healthy because Your Word says that Jesus Himself took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses. Standing in boldness and confidence of Your Truth, I stand on the authority of Your Word and declare that I am redeemed from sickness and absolutely refuse its symptoms to set up camp in my body. Looking at my health even more deeply, I understand what Jesus meant when He said, "Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile." It is up to me to keep my soul clean. I confess that Your Word lives in me and that it is the Life and medicine to my flesh. Jesus is the Bread of Life and You feed my soul. I hold true to my confession of Your Word and I stand immovable and unshakeable, knowing that health and healing are now mine.
Through Jesus Christ's Most Precious Blood, Most Sacred Name and Most Holy Face, I thank You for this awareness. Amen~
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark
Mark 7:14-23
14 He summoned the crowd again and said to them, "Hear me, all of you, and understand.
15 Nothing that enters one from outside can defile that person; but the things that come out from within are what defile.
16 Anyone who has ears to hear ought to hear."
17 When He got home away from the crowd His disciples questioned Him about the parable.
18 He said to them, "Are even you likewise without understanding? Do you not realize that everything that goes into a person from outside cannot defile,
19 since it enters not the heart but the stomach and passes out into the latrine?"
(Thus he declared all foods clean.)
20 "But what comes out of a person, that is what defiles.
21 From within people, from their hearts, come evil thoughts, unchastity, theft, murder,
22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, licentiousness, envy, blasphemy, arrogance, folly.
23 All these evils come from within and they defile."
The Gospel of the Lord
Praise to You Lord Jesus Christ
