Declarations! 2013

I am blessed with every spiritual blessing.  I am chosen in Him.
I am to be holy and blameless.
I am pre-destined to be adopted (which means I'm not an exhaustion OR a burden).
I am pre-destined to be the praise of His grace!
I am favored.

God is wealthy in GRACE.

I was though about, even before the formation of the earth! I am the focus of His love.
I will be made whole and holy by His love.  I am FREE of penalty and punishment by His blood poured out on the Cross.  I am ABUNDANTLY free!

It is IN Christ I find out who I am and what I'm living for.  He is working out His eternal purpose in me.  The reason (purpose) for my life is for the praise of His glorious grace!

I am free of sin, satan, and my sinful self.  ALL my sins are banished.

All things are FOR Jesus; all things are THROUGH Jesus; alll things are IN Jesus.
I am part of a new world order - a reunited universe - and Jesus is King.
Jesus, establish You Kingdom!  Rule over all from Your Father's right hand.  Bring the new heaven and the new earth.  Fulfill and finalize God's purpose.  Thank You, Holy Spirit, for enabling me to come to faith in Jesus Christ!
I pray ACCESS to the heavenly places.

It's Jesus good pleasure to adopt me.  I live and act in the sphere of Jesus.  He is my new environment.  Thank You God for the gift of living in Jesus!

My old life is characterized by disobedience, sin, condemnation, and death.  My new life (in Christ) is characterized by salvation, life in the Spirit, abundant grace, righteousness, and eternal life!

I am sealed by the Holy Spirit.  I am marked by God.  I am owned by God.  My redemption is real because the Holy Spirit is present in my life.  Thank You Holy Spirit for being present in my life!  Thank You for regenerating and renewing me, for delivering me from the power of sin!

I AM delivered from the power of self-preservation!
I AM delivered from the power of seeking acceptance and approval!
I AM delivered from the power of lying!
I AM delivered from the power of fear!
I AM delivered from the power of trying to earn love!
I AM delivered from the power of addiction!
I AM delivered from the power of death (deadness)!
By the POWER of the Spirit, I am delivered!

Thank You , Holy Spirit, for giving me a conciousness of God as my Father!  Thank You for filling me with power to witness for You.

God receives (as His own) ALL who receive Jesus.  It's not that He "had" to send Jesus... that was the purpose from the very beginning.  Everything has been laid down since the beginning of time to show how much we NEED Him.  He has laid down the foundations of His arguement that we are designed to be IN Him.

I am one of God's special people.  I am chosen to be a part of Christ's bride.  I am embraced as an individual person AS I identify myself with the body of Christ and associate there.
Certainty of my election is in my personal living faith in Jesus and my perserverance in union in Him.

I am being led by Holy Spirit toward sancification and holiness.  My salvation is conditional based on repentance (which is led by Holy Spirit) and faith - my ACCEPTING God's gifts.
God, I DO want to accept all Your gifts!  Teach me to receive!

I am to become grounded and settled in my faith. 
I am called... so I answer.
I am justified... so I don't make excuses.
I am glorified... so I don't strive.
I am conformed to His image... so I do not keep trying to fix my old self.
I am holy and without blame... I cannot be charged and I do not accept punishment from anyone OR myself.
I am adopted... so I belong.
I am redeemed... I am not my own.
I receive an inheritence... I am not poor.
I am for the praise of His glory... He works me over - He's doing it!
I receive the Holy Spirit... I AM led.
I am created for good works... there IS purpose.

As long as I am ON the ship and IN company with the Captain (Jesus) then I am among the elect!

Things / issues are being worked out FROM the heavenly realm.
The spiritual battle is a war against my faith.
There is holiness imparted to me in Christ and then holiness that comes through sancification by Holy Spirit.
My destiny (the hope I live for) is life in His IMMEDIATE presence!!

Faith find it's focus in Christ and is expressed in love toward others.
God, grow my faith in Jesus!  Bring me into relationships where I can love again!
Holy Spirit, I pray to know (to understand) the great spiritual resources that are mine in Christ.  Grow insight and discernment of the mysteries of the divine truth, that I may know God completely!  Bring me into experience with You and Your blessing.

God's power alone can bring me safely into the riches of the final glory, made available in heaven.
Faith is SOLID trust in Jesus, resulting in an outpouring of love.

God, make my eyes focused and clear, increase my intelligence and discernment in knowing You personally, so that I can see exactly what You're calling me to do, that I can grasp the immensity of this glorious way of life that You have for me and the utter extravagance of Your work in me - Your endless energy and boundless strength!  May my eyes of understanding be enlightened.
Holy Spirit, work in me in greater measure, for increased impartation for more wisdom, revelation, knowledge, to learn Your redemptive purposes both now and in the future and increase in experience of Your mighty power!
May Your power be ever moving toward me that I might advance in grace, achieve victory over satan and sin!, to witness effectively for Christ, gain final salvation.
Bring me into the ACTIVITY, manifestation, and strength of Your Spirit working with me - the very same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him at God's right hand.
Praise to You and thank You for all that You are!

...and all God's people said:  Amen!
