Prayer For An Abundant Life

Prayer For An Abundant Life

On the March 29, 2024, broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane, a viewer asked for prayer because she didn’t want to live anymore. The Holy Spirit gave Annamarie a beautiful prayer for an abundant life straight from the Father’s heart.

If you struggle with thoughts and feelings like this, read the teaching note below, and pray the powerful prayer that follows it for an abundant life in Christ! 

Teaching Note

If you’re a believer in Jesus Christ of Nazareth, you’ve already died. You’ve died to the flesh, and you’re alive in Christ. Jesus Christ lives within you. He is your life. You don’t rely on yourself for life. Jesus is already working in you. He has all the power inside of you, so whatever burdens you’re carrying, throw them off. Those burdens died a long time ago. Now you’re only yoked to Jesus Christ and your burden is light and easy. He’s in you. He’s alive in you!

Pray Out Loud

  • “Heavenly Father, Father God, thank You for my life. You knit me together in my mother’s womb. You knew me before I was even born. Thank You, Father God, for Your great plans for my life. Thank You, Father God, for Your Son, Jesus Christ, who already died for me. When He died on the Cross, all my pain, all my worries, and all my struggles died on the Cross with Him. He took it away from me. Thank You, Jesus. It didn’t end at the Cross. Thank You, Jesus, that You rose from the dead, and I rose with You. I am alive in You, Jesus, and You are alive in me, Jesus. We are one!

 

  • “Thank You, Father God, for this gift. You gave me Your Holy Spirit. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for being inside of me. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for all of Your gifts. I have love. I have joy. I have peace. I have self control. I walk in the light of the Lord. I do not walk on my own strength. It’s Jesus Christ who lives within me. I’m arising and walking in Your light. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Holy Spirit. 

 

  • “Heavenly Father, Father God, I ask, in the name of Jesus, for a refreshing of Your Holy Spirit. Holy Spirit. Pour a fresh anointing on my shoulders. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Right now, I believe that the anointing of the Holy Spirit is on me. I proclaim that it is written, ‘the anointing breaks the yoke,’ so I command every yoke of fear, every yoke of rejection, every yoke of heaviness, every yoke that is not of God to be broken off me now, in the name of Jesus. 

 

  • “I command every lying, tormenting thought to be evicted from my mind now, in the name of Jesus Christ. I invite You, King Jesus, into my thoughts to redeem them. I invite You, King Jesus, into my heart to redeem my emotions for I am only yoked to Jesus Christ, and His burden is easy and light and joyful. I renounce all death. I renounce all fear of death. I renounce all thoughts of death. I renounce all thoughts that are not of God. I want to live! I want to live and walk with You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus, for carrying all my burdens. I feel light. I feel refreshed. I am redeemed. I am healed. I am whole. I am Shalom, in Jesus Christ’s name. Amen and so be it!”

A Powerful Prayer Of Surrender

A Powerful Prayer Of Surrender

On Annamarie Strawhand’s March 15, 2024, broadcast of Life in the Faith Lane, a viewer commented: “Lord, replace my will and desires with your will and desires for me.” 

Annamarie explained that the only way to do that is by an act of surrender to allow God to flow to you and through you. There is power in surrender! If you really want God’s will to come in and move in your life, you need to get into the posture of surrender and ask Him to fill you with His Holy Spirit and His will for your life.

Watch the video below for more on this teaching, and then follow the instructions to take your posture of surrender face-down on the floor before God, and pray the prayer that follows.

 

Posture of Surrender

Put a beach towel or blanket on the floor and lay on your stomach, if you are physically able, and get on your face before God. If you can’t physically lie on the floor, get into a kneeling position and bow down. Do your best to get your head on the floor and stretch your arms out on the floor in front of you. This is a posture of surrender before the Lord.

Note: You don’t want to “empty yourself” because emptying yourself can be very dangerous. That’s what people do when they do Yoga meditations. You want to go before the Lord and surrender to Him. It’s an act of worship, an act of honor. It’s you presenting yourself — mind, body, soul, and spirit — to Father God.

You’re not replacing something in you. You’re asking God to fill you immediately with His will, His way, and His Holy Spirit and for Him to overtake you and fill you with His desires, plans, and purposes for you.

As you pray, release any resistance that you’re feeling in your body. Totally surrender, and receive the heaviness of His glory. Wait on Him until you feel it come upon you.

Pray Out Loud

  • “Heavenly Father, Almighty God, Father of Glory, I come to You today before Your throne in humble faith surrendering to You, Almighty God. I surrender my life, my mind, my body, my soul, and my spirit to You, Almighty God. In the name of my Lord Jesus Christ and through the blood of Jesus Christ, I surrender my will to Your will, Father God. I come before You in humility. Your word says that we are to humble ourselves under Your mighty right hand and that You will raise us up in due time. 


  • “I decree that my will now agrees with Your will, Father God. Reveal Your will to me every day, Father God. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, every part of me, and right now, in the name of Jesus Christ, I surrender to You, Father God. I want more of You, Father God. I love You, Father God. I’m seeking Your will. I’m seeking Your face. I ask you now, Father God, for You to reveal Your will to me. Give me understanding. Remove any scales off my eyes and lift any veils. Take any place of stone in my heart, and give me a heart of flesh. Give me a heart to know Your heart, Father God. 


  • “I command my soul to yield to You, God. My soul exalts you, God. I surrender to you, God. I surrender my life to You, Father God. You are my Father, my loving Father. I trust you, God, with my life, with my spouse, with my children, and with my finances. I surrender to You, God. I believe You are doing all things for my good. I believe I’m called to Your purpose. I ask for Your Holy Spirit to come upon me now. I receive that glory, that covering that only You can give me, Father. Fill me, Father God, with Your purpose. Fill me, Father God, with Your glory. Fill me, Father God, with Your spirit. I yield to You, Father God. I yield. I surrender to You, Father God. I receive Your will for my life, Father God. I receive Your heavy glory. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Father.


  • “My will is Your will, Father God. Thank You, Father God. I proclaim that my will is receiving the will of God. My mind, my will, my heart, my soul, my spirit, my ears, my mouth, my hands, and my feet are coming into alignment with the will and the word of God. Holy Spirit, flow to me and through me, rivers of living water. Thank You, Jesus. I command my emotions to yield to the will of God.” 

Raise up your hands, and feel the weight of his glory as you continue to pray out loud. 

  • “Heavenly Father, Father God, I am Yours, all of me. I belong to You. Have Your way with me, O Lord, O God. Your glory is my covering, and Your favor surrounds me as a shield. You’ve plucked my feet out of the net and have established my goings. Keep me on the path of righteousness so I will not veer from it. I thank You, Father, for being a good, good Father. Thank You for Your grace and mercy. Thank You for Your Holy Spirit that fills me, guides me, and reveals Your heart to me. I am one with You, Father, through Christ Jesus forever. I worship You, God. I worship You, Father.”

Can you feel the heaviness of the glory, the weight of the glory on you?

  • “Father, I thank you that the weight of Your glory is upon me. You are pouring Your will and Your understanding into me because of my act of surrender according to Your word as I have humbled myself under Your mighty right hand. I feel the weight, and You will exalt me in due time. I am never empty. I am filled with You, Father God. Thank You, Father God. Thank You, Holy Spirit. Thank You, Lord Jesus. Amen and amen.”

Wait On God

Believe by faith He’s doing this work in you. Keep surrendering. Lie there and wait on God until you begin to feel the heavy hand of God come upon you. While you wait, you can say, “Lord, fill me with Your Spirit. Fill me with Your plans and purposes. Fill me with Your presence. Place Your hand upon me, Lord.” 

The Bible says that we come under the mighty right hand of God, and you will feel that power, that heaviness come upon you. Sometimes you won’t even be able to get up off the floor for a few minutes because He’s coming in and doing that work in you.

1 Peter 5:6, KJV
“Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.”

Prayer Against Loneliness (Remove Curse Of Loneliness Off Family Line)

The Lord has revealed that loneliness is a generational bloodline curse that has come from sin in past generations. There could be a cause to this from your ancestors on both a mother’s and father’s side — those in your bloodline that forced others into confinement unjustly.  In the blank space, you can add the person’s name. 

Speak Out Loud

Please allow me to present this prayer before your courts, Father God. I repent as an ambassador of reconciliation for _______ and anywhere on their bloodline going all the way back to Adam and Eve. If there were jailers that threw Christians or any innocent person unjustly into jail or threw them into solitary confinement or that took Your people captive and caused them to be in solitude and caused them to be lonely and to feel forlorn, I repent for that.

“I repent for acts of captivity on _______’s family bloodline going all the way back to Adam and Eve. I repent for those on the _______ family bloodline that persecuted Christians. Father God, take the captivity captive in their bloodline. Release _______’s family bloodline out of this prison. Release them out of captivity so they are no longer in solitary confinement, and bind that demon that’s been operating. Take their captivity captive. They are not alone. King Jesus is with them! 

“Lord Jesus, I ask that You put Your blood on this sin of _______’s bloodline right now. Anybody who persecuted Christians, threw them in jail, threw them in solitary confinement, did injustice against people, or put them in solitary confinement, I repent for this right now.

“Father God, Your Joanna that You sent to Your Son Jesus Christ was a righteous woman. She fought for Jesus. She fought for John the Baptist. She did not agree with putting Christians in jail. She did not agree with Herod’s policies. She did not agree with Herod’s cruelty. She was on Your side, Father God. 

“_______ is not alone. You are with them, Jesus. You are with them, Father God, and any curses or demonic assignments that are coming against them causing them to feel lonely are broken off of them today by the power of the blood of Jesus Christ!

They are canceled off of their assignment! 

“O Father, release _______ and their bloodline of all consequences of these sins, by the blood of Jesus. They have been released out of this prison!
