FATHER, help me to understand that this wondrous vessel YOU have fashioned for me to use and for YOUR SPIRIT to dwell in my body. Teach me to understand that YOU have endowed it with an innate knowing of what it does and doesn’t need as well as when it needs it in order to function at its maximum performance. Help me to recognize when my unsurrendered soul is trying to use this wondrous vessel to help it blot out need and pain. LORD GOD, I now choose to issue this edict to every part of my being. I will be no longer like a puppet respond to the pulling of whatever strings my unsurrendered soul might use to try to control me!
LORD, help me to return to eating for sustenance and energy only. LORD, help me to recognize hunger as the reason for eating and the cessation of hunger pangs for the reason to stop eating. I know I have overloaded and abuse the systems of my body requiring it to constantly digest food. I have allowed myself to become both the abuser and the abused. O GOD, forgive me and help me to return to YOUR truth and YOUR wisdom for my body.
I bind my body, soul, and spirit to YOUR will, confessing that I know I have not been doing what’s best for me to do. I loose from myself all wrong attitudes about food. I loose wrong emotional reactions that I have formerly used to validate eating comfort foods. I loose my soul’s desire to stuff my body in order to dull my senses, when it is reacting to reactivated pain. I choose to separate the needs of the normal physical functions of my body from the unnatural neediness of my soul.
I bind the inward parts of my body to YOUR will and purposes, my stomach, digestive system, heart, liver, colon, circulatory system, brain, nervous system, as well as everything else YOU’ve created within me, FATHER, I bind the inward parts of my soul’s belief system to YOUR will and truth, FATHER, I bind myself to YOUR truth and I loose wrong ideas I have accepted as truth from man’s ideas about good and bad food.
I loose self-justification, self-desire, self-deception, and the self-denial that I have allowed my soul to layer over my unmet needs keeping YOU out. Forgive me LORD for using food to try to take the edge off the drives of these needs, rather than letting YOU closer so YOU can meet them. Forgive me for using food to medicate and even drug myself when the pain of unhealed hurts seemed too much, too overwhelming. Help me to seek the food of freedom, healing, joy and peace that fine-tunes and streamlines my life, the spiritual food in YOUR Word. In JESUS name, Amen.
