Need empowerment to fulfil your destiny? Yes we must pray, but there is also power in declaration and confession of God’s Word over our lives.
Jesus is the Word who become flesh and dwelt among men (John 1). He said “The Spirit alone gives eternal life. Human effort accomplishes nothing. And the very words I have spoken to you are spirit and life.” (John 6:63 NLT).
The writer of Hebrews said “12For the word of God [is] quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and [is] a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” (Heb. 4:12 KJV).
Saints/Prayer Warriors, God’s Word in your mouth is powerful! Everything that is dead in your life must come to life and must resurrect in newness or must be realigned to the will and plan of God. Jesus came to give you and I abundant life! (John 10:10).
Declare and Confess scriptures upon yourself and your loves ones daily. God’s word is His prophetic word for humanity especially those who have accepted to be in covenant with him for they have entitlement to His promises.
Before we make declarations and confessions in the manner of receiving what is ours in God’s word, it is important for us to first examine our hearts and come into repentance if we need to, asking God to forgive us our sins as we forgive those who have sinned against us.
We can confess and declare any aspect of God’s Word (i.e His promises) according to our need or desire, but join me in these specific confessions and declarations:
Confession:
My head shall be lifted up above my enemies round about me, according to the Word of the LORD.
I am anointed with the oil of gladness.
Sun of righteousness, rise on me, with healing in your wings,according to the Word of the LORD.
All yokes in my life are broken according to the Word of the LORD. Amen (Isa. 27:10)
Declarations/Confessions:
I am more than a conqueror through Christ who loves me.
All things are under my feet in my position as one seated in heavenly places with Christ Jesus.
I am a King and Priest unto God and unstoppable for His sake.
I therefore declare all demonic plans against my life and that of my family nullified and thwarted in Jesus’ mighty name! Amen (Psalm 33:10-12/Col.2:14-15)
I am a covenanted child of God, an heir with Christ and receive my God given inheritance through him.
I therefore reject, revoke and renounce every unknown allegiance to Satan and any ungodly alliance or covenant I entered into blindly.
In Jesus’ mighty name! Amen.
