The stuff that hits home the most as I go through this journey is that your faith is not contingent upon how hard or how desperately you pray and petition before the Lord. It is upon these two things: knowing God's promises for you and then living from of a place of those promises; confidently. Who do you believe you are?
"The battle is first in us and then in our circumstances." I believe you're more effective with your child-like faith then trying to examine and figure everything out. (Something I'm about to learn a lot about!) 'You can do anything, God!' 'I can do what You say I can do!' 'I replace lies with the promises of God!' 'I trust that You are good!'
As we sing in some of our favorite songs of worship, "You make all things work together for my good." And "I am royalty, I have destiny, I have been set free, I'm gonna shake history." (Be watching for more powerful songs of declaring.)
That is declaring faith, no matter the circumstance. That is living from a place of knowing who you are. That is the stuff that just ruins the devil's day against you...
