Abide & Declare

Declarations are powerful. Speaking biblical declarations confesses and proclaims God's truth in your life, helps you to stay synced with that truth, then helps you renew your mind and get in position against the devil. If you do not understand a particular truth, seek to understand what it means. A declaration is not simply spoken but is made consciously out of the heart. From your heart, proclaim them out loud, boldly, and often!

I am a disciplined [man/woman] of God. I give myself continually to prayer and to the ministry of the Word. I study to show myself approved unto God, a workman who needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. I am not conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewing of my mind, to prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. I am risen with Christ. I seek those things which are above where Christ sits on the right hand of God. I set my mind on those things above, not on the things on this earth. Whatsoever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report, virtuous, and praiseworthy, these are the only things I fix my mind on.

I love all people and seek to see them through God's eyes. I love [spouse name] as Jesus loved the church, and gave himself for it. Church and spouse-- we walk in harmony and in one accord. We are one by the Spirit of God. I love [children’s names]. I labor to train them in the way they should go, and when they are old they will not depart from it. I raise them up in the nurture and the admonition of the Lord. Likewise I raise up spiritual children. I labor in discipling them. I teach them to disciple others.

My body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. There shall no evil befall me, neither shall any plague come near my dwelling. By the stripes of Jesus I am healed. I am blessed with the blessings of Abraham. I am very rich in silver and in gold. The blessing of the Lord makes me rich and He adds no sorrow to it. I prosper and live in health even as my soul prospers. As He who has called me is holy, so I am holy in all manner of lifestyle because it is written, "Be ye holy as I am holy".

I put off concerning the former conversation, the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts. I am renewed in the spirit of my mind and put on the new man which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. I am now strong and very courageous. The Word of God shall not depart out of my mouth, but I meditate therein day and night to observe to do according to all that is written therein. Yes, I abide! Then, and only then, do I make my way prosperous and blessed. All glory and honor and power and praise to the LORD God forever and ever! Amen.
