                      Covered and kept By Prayer

Live your life through prayer, not through your emotions so that you won't 
mishandle what's within you. My purpose! 

You only have to know My word. I have not delivered you and ordained you to 
a calling of emotions, but to one of a steadfast faith. Give me your emotions 
in prayer that there may be nothing that has not been covered in prayer and 
that the enemy may not pull you from under the shadow.  

Whether you feel it at the time or not, submit your feelings and thoughts to 
me in prayer, as unaligned with My will as they may be, that I may 
align them with what I'm saying concerning your life. 

The mantel which you carry and is one too heavy to ride upon the wave of 
your emotions or on outward suggestions. It must be upheld and handled by 
the position of prayer, and of faith through who you know me to be. I 
proved My power to you when I delivered your mind and I proved My power to 
you when I set you free from sin. Don't allow the fact that things are not 
appearing to go the way that I've promised to prevent you from walking 
out that place of promise. It's yours, so hold on. But it's only yours 
by way of holding on to the promise that I've given you concerning your 
destiny. And it's only yours through the trying of your mind and your 
will to be in complete agreement with who I say you are. 

My promise will be unto you according to your God-moving faith, not 
according to your emotions.  Hold on to that which I've promised.
