A Declaration of Dependence: Finding Strength in Prayer and Divine Partnership

This powerful declaration, entitled “Strong Prayer,” articulates a fundamental pillar of faith: the absolute need for Divine dependence. It moves beyond a simple request for help, asserting a profound, moment-by-moment reliance on God for the strength to navigate existence—a recognition that survival and progress in this challenging world are solely attributable to divine support. The prayer culminates in a spiritual contract, a commitment to allow God to work through the believer, transforming personal devotion into active ministry. This act of public sharing and affirmation is framed not just as a testimony, but as a direct challenge to spiritual opposition, empowering the individual to use their faith—as symbolically affirmed by saying “Amen”—as a defiant tool against forces of doubt and disappointment.
