A Declaration of Dependence on God

This declaration is inspired by a similar declaration issued by AWM. It is a declaration of one's yeild to and dependence on God rather than any government, culture, or person.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights. Since our Creator gave us these rights, we declare that no government has the right to take them away. We also declare that marriage was instituted by God between one man and one woman only. We oppose same sex-marriage, polygamy, bestiality, and all other forms of sexual perversion prohibited by Holy Scripture. We also declare the truth that life is granted by God at conceptionand that no man or woman has the right to take that life away. We declare that Jesus has provided the cure for all sin and therefore reach out to the sinner in love, but do not embrace the sin, knowing its destructive nature to the sinner and to others around the sinner. Finally, we live our lives in accordance with God's Word and commit to conducting our churches, ministries, businesses, and personal lives in accordance with our Christian faith and choose to obey God rather than man!

NOTE: to use the declaration in singular form, simply change the pronouns we/us/our to I/me/my.

A Quick Declaration for Every Believer's Ministry

Here is a quick declaration and reiteration of truths from God's Word. Say these truths out loud and boldly and hide these truths of God in your heart!

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because He has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, to lay hands on the sick, to raise the dead, to cast out demons, to trample on serpents and scorpions, and to proclaim liberty to the captives. And to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.

Jesus is made unto me wisdom from God, and righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. If I lack wisdom, I ask of God who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it is given to me.

I walk in love, as Christ also has loved me and given Himself for me, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling aroma. In Christ Jesus, I've been made the righteousness of God. The love and righteousness of God is shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Spirit, whom I have received from the Father through Christ Jesus.

Whatever I do shall prosper, for I prosper and live in health even as my soul prospers. Therein, the joy of the Lord is my strength!

Finally, I have been given authority over all the ability of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me, but I rejoice because my name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life in heaven forever and ever.

Hallelujah!

Amen.

Blessing through a Young Boy

This prophetic declaration came from a five year old boy. It is amazing!

I decree and declare, God, that You granted these children supernatural strength and ability to fight a good fight of faith.

I decree and declare that they are qualified to share in Jesus’ inheritance.

I decree and declare that they are reconciled to God.

I decree and declare that they are firmly rooted, built up and established in the faith.

I decree and declare that they are a steward of great wealth and riches, on earth and in heaven.

I decree and declare that they are an ambassador for Christ, the light of the world.

I decree and declare that healing power flows through them and they shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover.

I decree and declare that they are anointed by God.

I decree and declare that there is a hedge of protection around them.

I decree and declare that they will never be broke a day in their life.

I decree and declare that God will provide for them with wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.

I decree and declare that God equips them with multiple streams of income at a young age.

I decree and declare that God will bless them with multiple multi-million dollar ideas, inventions, and strategies.

I decree and declare that God, through His son Jesus, represents them in the courts of the heavenly realm.

I decree and declare that God gives them authority and power to expose Satan’s tactics and overcome his attacks.

I decree and declare that no weapon formed again them shall prosper.

I decree and declare that they are healed by the stripes of Jesus Christ from the crown of their head to the soles of their feet.

I announce that you, God, will bless them, and that You, God, have the power over them. It’s not by their might nor by their power, but by the Spirit of the Lord. When the enemy comes like a flood, You’re going to lift up a standard against the enemy.

In the name of the Lord in Jesus Christ, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven! Amen.

What amazing words to be coming out the mouth of a five year old, indeed! Some people may be skeptical that this child could speak such concise, sound words. That's understandable. However, that's exactly the kind of thing the Holy Spirit would do! The Holy Spirit will help us and empower us supernaturally. And the boy's age? Makes no difference. As Paul describes in I Timothy 4:12 and as the story in the Gospels illustrates, Jesus loves the little children! Let the Holy Spirit lead you and empower you supernaturally, no matter your age!da

Ways to Pray Concerning Abortion

The strength of our demonstrations and protests may be ignored, but "the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective" (James 5:16b). Let's pray during this critical hour!

1. Pray for a spiritual awakening in our nation.

"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land" (2 Chron. 7:14, NIV).

2. Pray for expectant mothers who may be facing horrific circumstances. Pray that God will bring peace to the anxieties and fears they may be facing. Pray that the church will rise up to address the needs young mothers are facing.

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Ps. 147:3).

3. Pray that America will repent of injustice on behalf of the most vulnerable among us.

"But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!" (Amos 5:24).

4. Pray that abortionists will come to know Christ as Savior.

"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us" (Rom. 5:8).

5. Pray that abortion facilities will close.

"He thwarts the plans of the crafty, so that their hands achieve no success" (Job 5:12).

6. Pray that the hearts of lawmakers and judges will be awakened to the value of human life from conception to death.

"I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh" (Ezek. 36:26).

7. Pray that Christians can be an example of love and peace.

"Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love" (1 John 4:7-8).

8. Pray for churches to continue providing life-sustaining alternatives, including foster or adoptive care.

"Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you" (James 1:27, NLT).

9. Pray for those considering abortions to have divine encounters that will give them hope for their future.

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jer. 29:11, NIV).

10. Pray for women who have been the victims of abortionists, that they will experience spiritual, emotional and physical healing.

"The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love" (Ps. 145:8).
