COMANDING YOUR HEALING

COMANDING YOUR HEALING

Romans 10:17   ¹⁷ So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Until we know what Gods will is there is nothing on which to base our faith.

Gods word, and Gods will are two things that work together. Gods word has always been his will for us and was made effective through the death of Jesus at the cross. The two became one.

Faith cannot go beyond one’s knowledge of the revealed will of God.


Romans 12:2   ² And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Conformed means to be in agreement with.

Until the person seeking healing is sure from Gods own word, that it is the will of God to heal him he is trying to reap a harvest where no seed has been planted.

Jesus said, ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.

John 8:31-32   ³¹ Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;

³² And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

If you continue or stay in my word, then you are my disciples indeed. What makes a disciple? A disciple is one who gives up the things of the world, and the desires of the world. You cannot be a disciple of God until you do this.

A believer’s purpose is to do just this if you want the anointing, the discernment and the fulness of God working in your life.

The only way we will ever know the truth is by having the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to us through the discernment of Gods word, placing it into our spirit.

You must go beyond the natural way of thinking. This is spiritual, not carnal.

Mark 11:24   ²⁴ Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Proverbs 4:20-23   ²⁰ My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.

²¹ Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

²² For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

²³ Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

He is saying here, open up your spiritual ears and hear what I am telling you. when you read and meditate on what you are reading and don’t let the word depart from your eyes so that they will stay in your heart.

The word you hear and the word you read are life, healing, they are health and help for other issues of life. The words of God are life only to those who find them.

Here are three essential things you must do to obtain results from the promises of God:

1.           There must be an attentive ear. Incline thine ear unto my sayings.

2.           There must be a steadfast look. Let the words not depart from thine eyes.

3.           There must be the enshrining heart. “To enshrine or hold sacred.” Keep them in the midst of thy heart.

When your eyes are upon your symptoms and your mind is occupied with symptoms more than gods word, it will result in doubt.

Your symptoms may point you to death, but Gods word points you to life. You can not look in opposite directions at the same time.

Mark 11:23   ²³ For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.

Doubt will always cancel out faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God.

Isaiah 53:4-5   ⁴ Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

⁵ But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

1 Peter 2:24   ²⁴ Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Sin and sickness passed from us at Calvary.

Salvation and health have passed from Calvary to us you can not separate salvation and healing at the cross.

When Jesus bore our sins, our sickness and our pain, he bore them away or removed them forever.

The reason we still have sickness is we possibly speak it into existence or we didn’t take authority over it. Somehow or another the devil snuck in.

Galatians 3:13   ¹³ Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:

Now no one can be justified by the law in the sight of God. The just shall live by faith.

Galatians 3:11   ¹¹ But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.

Romans 6:14   ¹⁴ For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.

If the body were not included in redemption, how can there be a resurrection?

Healing is provided for all but the power of God can be claimed only where the will of God is known.

Faith must rest on the will of God alone, not on our desires or wishes.

Faith is not just believing God can, but that God will.

Sometimes people seeking healing need to know that prayers are answered according to Gods will and how it fits into his overall plan.

Exodus 23:25   ²⁵ And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

This promise was under the law. It was a promise made to Israel.

To try and say that the privilege of health is not for Gods people today is to try and change Gods I AM to I WAS. That being said it all boils down to Gods will.

If healing is not for everyone of Gods children then how could we pray the prayer of faith for anyone. Healing is still and will be Gods decision as to if its right for His purpose. We are to pray in faith and let the Father have the last word.

Since the body is for the Lord. A living sacrifice unto God.

Healing and salvation were both paid for at the cross. People even believers try to separate the two. They might say they are sick but never mention salvation. How do we explain by his shed blood we are redeemed, by his stripes we were healed?

Healing is the ultimately left up to the will of God. it is impossible to have real faith for healing as long as long as there is the slightest doubt as to it being Gods will. Of course, His will must align with His word.

The power of God can be claimed only where the will of God is known.

Until a person knows the will of God, they have no basis for their faith.

Faith is expecting God to do what we know is his will.

When we know it is His will it is not difficult for us to believe that he will do what we are sure he wants to do.

Psalms 37:4   ⁴ Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

It is to those who will delight themselves in the Lord that he gives the desires of their heart.

God has not lowered the standard for the day of grace.

Faith always implies obedience.

Even when we do act on faith, symptoms do not always disappear instantly.

A symptom is a sign which indicates the existence or occurrence of something else other than the real problem.

A symptom might be a sign that is letting you know something needs to be addressed as to physical pain or a weakness in your body.

Sometimes it could be a demon trying to get you to say you are sick, or that, I just know something is very wrong with me.

Faith is being so convinced of the absolute truth of God’s word, which is recorded in the bible, that we act on the word, not on symptoms.

When we ask for healing, Christ bids us to say with faith, “I thank thee Father that thou have heard me.”

Faith is when Gods word alone is our reason for believing that our prayer is answered before we see or feel anything.

1 Timothy 4:11   ¹¹ These things command and teach.

We have the command of God to teach his word. God wants us to command healing, not just suggest healing. Just praying would be ok if there were no doubt, but commanding in the name of Jesus takes it from you and puts it under the blood. This is where if it is Gods will be done, not our desire.


Command your healing:

John 19:30   ³⁰ When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

The word finished, means to accomplish or complete. Jesus’ death on the cross was the fulfilled will of God. That is what he came for.

Colossians 2:21-23   ²¹ (Touch not; taste not; handle not;

²² Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?

²³ Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

Do not touch, do not handle, concerns things which perish according to doctrines of men. They have an appearance of wisdom, but are of no value against the indulgence of the flesh. “Will worship” changes because it is a worship devised by man. God’s will for man never changes because God never changes.

Philippians 2:13   ¹³ For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

To do His good pleasure. God is always working in us to help us do what he wants, we should be happy about this. Let this mind be in us which was also in Christ Jesus.

Matthew 6:10   ¹⁰ Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

The will of God is all important, His will, will be carried out on earth.

Mark 16:18   ¹⁸ They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Mark is saying here that we should lay hands on the sick (this means praying), believing for their healing and they shall recover, nothing is said here about miracle healing.

CHRISTIANS HAVING TRIALS IN TODAYS CULTURE

CHRISTIANS HAVING TRIALS IN TODAYS CULTURE

It is not a surprise that we live in a world of growing uncertainty, and increasing instability. The average person, “especially believers” are faced with much more pressure than people who lived fifty years ago.

The emotional impact of such changes in almost every area of life, has been daunting to say the least.

 Unbelievers certainly are experiencing trials in his/her life of which they are in most cases poorly equipped to know how to cope.

Christians are certainly not exempt from these trials in life. I find that there is a lot of confusion among Christians over the following questions.

1.           Why do Christians who are trusting and walking with God have trials?

1 Peter 5:8   ⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

2.           They are surprised at the fiery trials that they go through as if something strange and scary is happening to them.

1Peter 4:12 ¹² Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 

3.             It can be because of some moral failure or lack of faith.

James 1:2-3   ² My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers’ temptations;
³ Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

The word tells us to be glad, because these trials make you partners with Christ in his suffering. When your life is over you will have the joy of sharing His glory.

Let’s take a look at the trial that Paul and Silas went through, and then look at the results at the end.

They were totally committed to their mission of founding new churches. They were walking by faith and were in the city of Philippi by the direct leading of the Lord Jesus himself.

As a result of delivering a demon from a slave girl of fortune telling; her master had them arrested. How would you respond to a situation like this?

For a great many Christians today, it is very easy to slip into the prevailing attitude of our present world.

The current mind set is to avoid pain of any kind at any cost, to live life for the moment, and ignore the long-term consequences.

The principle of enduring hardship for the present is to achieve a long-term future reward is virtually non-existent. In this day in age many people want instant gratification.

There are two extremes that Christians should avoid when approaching the subject of trials.

 Don’t think, God in his desire to see us grow will constantly bombard us with trials in order to see us grow.

The second is to think that there will be no trials in the life of someone who has real faith and is walking with God.

These are two extremes.



1 Corinthians 10:13      ¹³ There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

The Lord promises that he will never put us through any trial that is beyond our maturity level to endure.

Nor does He give us more testing than is necessary to train our faith for our particular calling.

Christians who are greatly used for Gods purpose are greatly tested. In these cases, the Lord gives such grace that the one who is tested is filled with inner strength and joy.

Romans 8:28   ²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

All things are not good, but when we believe God, he makes even the bad things work together for good.

How? Because those who are tested for the ministry sake are given special grace if they continue to trust the Lord

Most Christians of this generation are in ‘an attitude” of denial about the subject of trials.

No one wants to have trials and certainly no one should seek them, but the bible is filled with trials about great people of faith suffering trials, not the least of whom is Jesus himself.

Do committed Christians have trials? Yes! One of the major characteristics of spiritual maturity is to see your life from the divine viewpoint, instead of the human viewpoint.

An integral part of the divine viewpoint is to see your life through the perspective of eternity.

1 Corinthians 2:9   ⁹ But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Two perspectives of life:

We must learn to live in the reality that we are already citizens of eternity. Bound for the heavenly reward that is beyond human comprehension.

According to Gods promise, the best this life has to offer cannot even be compared to the believer’s life in eternity.

Philippians 3:18-21   ¹⁸ (For many walks, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
¹⁹ Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
²⁰ For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
²¹ Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.

This issue is so serious that if we don’t learn to look at life through the perspective of eternity it will be unimaginable to cope with life in the times ahead.

If this life was all we had to look forward too many situations wouldn’t make sense or even seem fair.

Remember, faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.

Hebrews 11:1   11 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

We have to learn how to believe God’s promises in spite of what our emotions and human experiences tell us.

God doesn’t promise us a life free of trials but he does promise us peace on the inside in the midst of trials.

One of the reasons there are trials in the Christians life is discipline for personal sin.

James 4:17   ¹⁷ Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin


Romans 14:23   And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sinAnd he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.

When we sin as a believer, we break fellowship with the Lord.

Sin does not sever our relationship which is secured forever by the finished work of Christ on the cross but sin does break our fellowship.

We remain out of fellowship until we confess our known sin to the Lord and trust him again to give us victory over temptation. God promises he will.

Simply put if we confess what we know, He forgives us what we don’t know.

God loves us too much to let us waste our lives out of fellowship with Him. From the moment we trust in Christ we are saved forever.

Ephesians 1:13-14   ¹³ In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

¹⁴ Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

God could take us home right then, but He leaves us on this planet to share in his work of saving the lost.

To train us for our eternal role as kings, priests and priestess with Christ and bring glory on earth.

Hebrews 12:10   ¹⁰ For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

Discipline is always for our benefit. His discipline is designed to teach us to live a holy life through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Once the Lords discipline has taught us its intended lesson it is either removed or turned into a blessing. Like the bible teaches.

Psalm 30:5   For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.

The result for the one who confesses his sin and trusts in the Lord will be this, NO discipline.

James 1:2-4   My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;
³ Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
⁴ But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

Various trials produce a special kind of faith, which brings about overall spiritual maturity.

This special faith is called endurance, which is a faith that persists and doesn’t give up when deliverance is delayed.

Job demonstrated this kind of faith under an undeserved and unexplained trial when he said, though He “God” slay me, yet will I trust in him. (job 13:15)

Hebrews 12:1-2   Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
² Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

God wants those who keep on believing and leaning upon Him, even though the trials persist. This is what God calls a truly mature faith.

The Lord reminds us that His love is made especially manifest to us during these times, through the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.

When we analyze some of Gods greatest servants, we discover that all went through test and trials.

Not because of some personal sin, but because God wanted to strengthen their personal discipline, so they could withstand Satins attacks.

The more God uses us the more of a target of Satin we become.

The greater the mission, the greater the need for training in obedience and discipline.

This is why Jesus cautioned those who wanted to follow Him into the position of leadership, to first count the cost.

James 3:1   3 My brethren, be not many masters, knowing that we shall receive the greater condemnation.

God holds the teachers and preachers more responsible. They fall under a stricter judgment.

John 9:1-3   And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.
² And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?
³ Jesus answered, neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

Jesus is saying that it was not caused by either the blind man or his parents’ sin. That the man was born blind so that Gods power might be displayed in him.

We might ask was it fair to cause a man to suffer from birth with such a deformity?

If this life is all there is, we might say it wasn’t fair. But look what happened, Jesus walked up to the blind man, made a ball of clay and spit, told him to wash his eyes and he was healed.

2 Corinthians 4:16-18   For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
¹⁷ For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
¹⁸ While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Our new man is our soul.

In the book of Job, we find that Job continued to trust in the Lord, even though the tests got so severe he was driven almost out of his mind.

Later the Lord restored all that he had lost many times over.

Many times, in trials of a lesser degree are allowed into the life of a believer, in order to demonstrate this same point.

Angels continue to constantly observe how believers react to trials… every aspect of Gods dealing with man-kind is teaching the angelic realm more about the wonder of Gods infinite character.

Ephesians 3:8-11   Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
⁹ And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
¹⁰ To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
¹¹ According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord:

According to this, God is teaching the Angels about His manifold wisdom. Particularly through His dealings with the church.

The infinite beauty and wonder of God’s grace have been revealed to both the unfallen angels and the fallen angels.

Christians are taught to change what they can and to accept by faith what they can’t change.

The scripture says that some trials are allowed into our lives to keep us from falling into pride.

Pride was the original sin that caused Lucifer to fall and become Satin.

God put pride at the top of the list of sins he hates.

Jealousy, envy, pride.



Proverbs 6:13-16   He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;
¹⁴ Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.
¹⁵ Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
¹⁶ These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:

Because of this, the Lord takes special precautions to keep his servants from falling into this snare of the devil.

The sin of pride is a particular temptation for the servant of Christ who is given great spiritual gifts and understanding of God’s word.

2 Corinthians 12:7-10   And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted above measure.
⁸ For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.
⁹ And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
¹⁰ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong.

Paul’s illness spread the gospel to Galatia

Galatians 3:13-15   Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree:
¹⁴ That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.
¹⁵ Brethren, I speak after the manner of men; Though it be but a man's covenant, yet if it be confirmed, no man disannulleth, or addeth thereto.

God used the flare-up of Paul’s eye disease to force him to stay long enough in the province of Galatia to start the Galatian church and to preach the gospel to them.

This should answer the inaccurate contention on the part of some that say God never allows sickness into the life of a Christian who believes Him and walks with Him.

Had Paul not had this illness, he would have bypassed Galatia and missed the opportunity to evangelize and bring in the whole region of Galatia.

I believe God desires to and does heal us, but there are some cases where he has a greater purpose to accomplish.

Once again, we must remember, God looks at each situation from the stand point of eternity.

If a person who is ill has confessed every known sin in his life and if the Lord does not immediately heal him or her, then the Lord in his love and wisdom has a greater purpose. We may not understand in this natural life, but that will certainly count for all eternity.

So why do we have trials? For Gods purpose not ours.

DECREE AND DECLARE GODS WORD PART 2

DECREE AND DECLARE GODS WORD 

PART 2

Decree 14-   Lord I thank you for the Holy Spirit that is within me. Lord I choose to live a life of prayer today, and I will pray without ceasing.

I purpose in my heart to pray in this manner today, and I thank you that you empower me with the precious Holy Spirit to seek you and to pray to you every moment of every day.

1 Thessalonians 5:17    ¹⁷ Pray without ceasing.

God knows we cannot spend all our time on our knees, but it is possible to have a prayerful attitude at all times.

Decree 15-   Lord you formed my heart, father I pray that you would recreate in me a clean heart, and restore to me a steadfast spirit.

Lord thank you that you do not cast me away from your presence. Fill me with your Holy Spirit anew each day, fill me now Holy Spirit.

Psalms 51:10   ¹⁰ Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Decree 16-   God will never forsake me, thank you Father, that you are with me always. Your spirit is within me to guide and teach me continually

I am accepted unconditionally and I will never be rejected by my Heavenly Father. Lord I thank you for your love n acceptance of me today.

Hebrews 13:5   ⁵ Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

How can we learn to be satisfied with what we have? Don’t resent what you don’t have, Gods love expressed in what He has provided. Money and possessions will all pass away.

We become content when we realize Gods sufficiency for our needs. Trust God to meet all your needs.

Decree 17-   Lord I thank you that you blot out all my sins and iniquities, Father you don’t remember my sins any longer. My sins are as far as the east is from the west, because I am atoned for and restored to right relationship with you by the cleansing blood of Jesus.

And today I choose to forgive myself for the times that I have fallen short as well.


Isaiah 43:25   ²⁵ I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.


Psalms 103:12   ¹² As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.

The Lord is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who fear him. God says I am the one who blots out your transgressions, and its for my own sake and will not remember thy sins.

Decree 18-   Father I thank you that I am led by your spirit and I thank you that you have given to me the Holy Spirit who guides and teaches me.

Lord I am your child, I am your (son or daughter), so I am led by your spirit. I thank you that the Holy Spirit is going to lead me today.


Romans 8:14   ¹⁴ For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.

When we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and Lord of our life, we gain all the rights of a legitimate child, in Gods new family. We become full heir to His estate.  We might not always feel as though we belong to God but the Holy Spirit is our witness. His inward presence reminds us of who we are and encourages us with Gods love.

Decree 19-   Lord I bless you today with all my soul, I bless your Holy Name, and father I thank you that you forgave all my sins and healed all my sicknesses. I believe I am forgiven and healed in Jesus name.

Psalms 103: 1-3   103 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

² Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:

³ Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases;

We need never wallow in the past, for God forgives and forgets. If we are to follow God when we forgive another person, we must also forget the sin, otherwise we have not truly forgiven.

Decree 20-   Lord I worship you today, and I thank you for your angelic host that work on your behalf. I declare that your angels heed your word, Lord as I confess your word over my life, your angels are being released to perform your word on my behalf. I release and welcome Gods angels to bring your promises into full manifestation in my life and circumstances in Jesus name.

Psalms 103: 20   ²⁰ Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

Everything everywhere is to praise the Lord, all his angels, and all his works. Praising God means remembering all he has done for us, fearing Him and obeying His commands.

Decree 21-   Father I thank you that you are the good Sheppard, I shall not lack any good thing, you supply all of my needs by Christ Jesus, Lord I thank you for restoring and healing my soul today in Jesus name.

Psalms 23: 1-3     The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

² He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

³ He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

As the Lord is the good Sheppard, and we are his sheep, not frightened animals, but obedient followers. Wise enough to follow one who will lead us in the right way.

Decree 22-   Father today, I choose to make you my refuge, I choose to trust in you, my Lord. I make a conscious decision to live and dwell in the secret place. I trust you and I thank you that no evil shall touch me in Jesus name, for your angelic host protects me.

Psalms 91:1-2    He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
² I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.


Psalms 91: 9-11   ⁹ Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

¹⁰ There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

¹¹ For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

God is a shelter, a refuge when we are afraid. The writers faith in almighty God as protector would carry him through all the dangers and fears of life.

This should be a picture of our trust. Trading all our fears for faith in Him. No matter how intense our fears. To do this we must live and rest with Him.

Decree 23-   Father I accept that you love me with an everlasting love, and that you are drawing me close to you, with the cords of your supernatural love, grace and mercy.

Your love for me is unshakable, it is unchangeable, you will never forsake me, and you are with me to the ends of the earth. Thank you, Lord, that you have an eternal love for me, that shall endure forever.

Jeremiah 31:3   ³ The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

God reaches toward his people with kindness, motivated by deep and everlasting love. He is eager to do the best for us, if we will only let Him. This restoration will include all people who trust God.

Decree 24-   Lord I thank you that your kingdom is within me. I thank you that your Kingdome will come on earth as it is in heaven, because your kingdom is within me now.

Lord I surrender my spirit, soul and body to your Kingdom, and thank you that I will demonstrate your Kingdome with power of the Holy Spirit everywhere I go today. Lord I invite your Kingdom to come in my life today in Jesus name.

Luke 17:21   ²¹ Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.

The Kingdom of God is not like an earthly kingdom with geographical boundaries, instead, it begins with the work of Gods spirit in people’s lives and relationships.

We must resist looking to institutions or programs for evidence of the progress or Gods kingdom. Instead we should look for what God is doing in people’s hearts.

Decree 25-   Oh Lord I am asking you to bless me indeed and expand my sphere of influence for your glory today. Father god, place your mighty right hand firmly upon me and protect me, keep me from evil and sin, please do not allow me to cause any harm or pain to my love ones, neighbors or myself, in Jesus Name.

1 Chronicles 4:10   ¹⁰ And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

We live in a fallen world filled with sin, and it is important to ask God to keep us safe from unavoidable evil that comes our way, but we must also avoid evil motives, desires and actions that begin within us.

Therefore, not only must we seek Gods protection from evil, but we must also ask God to guard our thoughts and actions. We can begin to utilize this protection by filling our mind with positive thoughts and attitudes.

Decree 26-   No weapon that is formed against me shall succeed. I condemn every tongue and word curse that has been spoken and that rises up against me, I command every force of darkness associated with these word curses to cease from your assignment.

I bind you in the name of Jesus Christ, Lord I ask you to release your angels to war on my behalf in the name of Jesus Christ, and bring every negative word spoken against me to naught and to no effect.

Isaiah 54:17   ¹⁷ No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.

God made a covenant of peace with the people of Israel, that the time would come when he would stop pouring out his anger on them, he would teach their people and give them prosperity.

And in that day no weapon turned against you will succeed, these benefits are enjoyed by the servants (or Christians) today, because we have been graphed into the Jewish roots through Christ Jesus, through faith.

Decree 27-   Lord I just want to bless you with all my heart and soul. Father I thank you and I bless you for everything that you have done, and everything that you are going to do as you prosper me, heal me, and transform my life.

I choose to take some time and bless you now for you are very good to me. (take a few minutes to bless the Father, Son and Holy Spirit for the good things they have done in your life.

Psalms 103:1   Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

David gives us plenty for which to praise God, he forgives our sins, heals our diseases, redeemed us from death, crowns us with love and compassion, satisfies our desires and gives righteousness and justice.

We receive all of these without deserving any of them, no matter how difficult your life’s journey, you can always count your blessings, past, present and future. When you feel as though you have nothing for which to praises God, read David’s list.

Decree 28-   Lord I choose to trust you today, and I will see your hand move upon my behalf, I shall feed upon your faithfulness and you will provide for me.

I shall lack no good thing, Lord I bless you and I thank you for all of the blessings, provisions and favor that you have given to me. You are my shepherd and I shall not want. I choose to do good today.

Psalms 37:3   ³ Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.

We should never envy evil people, even though some may be extremely popular or excessively rich. No matter how much they have, it will fade and vanish like grass that withers and dies.

Those who follow God, and live differently from the wicked in the end will have treasures in heaven. What an unbeliever gets on earth may last his lifetime, but what you get from following God lasts forever.

Decree 29-   father I thank you for the ministry of Jesus. Lord I thank you that after the lord ascended upon high that the Holy Spirit was given to me. I thank you for the Holy Spirit today.

Lord I thank you that the Holy Spirit is within me, and that the precious Holy Spirit will speak to me today, Holy Spirit I ask you to lead me and guide me in your preordained path for me today.

Acts 13:2   ² As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

Psalms 37:23   ²³ The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

The person in whom God delights is one who knows God, trusts him and tries to do His will. God watches over us and makes firm every step that a person takes. If you would like to have God direct your way, then seek His advice before you step out.

We should dedicate ourselves to use our time, money and talents for Gods work. Ask God what he wants you to set apart for Him.

Decree 30-   Father your word teaches me that you will give me your wisdom in abundance, Lord I thank you for giving me your wisdom freely today, thank you Lord that I will walk in the spirit of wisdom and revelation today, and that my steps will be ordered by you today. I am grateful to you Father, that your spirit always guides me in perfect double peace.

James 1:5   ⁵ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

By wisdom, James is talking not only about knowledge, but about the ability to make wise decisions in difficult circumstances. Whenever we need wisdom, we can pray to God and he will generously supply what we need. If we want answers, we can ask for Gods wisdom to guide our choices. Wisdom means practical discernment of God’s word.

Decree 31-   Lord I am healed in the name of Jesus Christ; I thank you that you sent Jesus to take my sins and sickness away on the cross. Lord I am saved and by the stripes of Jesus I am healed, I will prosper and be in perfect health today, even as my soul is saved and prospers.


Matthew 8:17   ¹⁷ That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

1 Peter 2:24   ²⁴ Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

Matthew continues to show Jesus’ Kingly nature. Through a single touch Jesus healed. When He spoke a single word, evil spirits fled His presence, Jesus has authority over all evil powers and all earthly disease.

He also has power and authority to conquer sin, sickness and evil consequences of this fallen world. Jesus’ healing miracles were a taste of what the whole world will one-day experience in Gods Kingdom.

Christ Jesus died for our sins, in our place so we would not have to suffer the punishment we deserve. This is called substitutionary atonement.

Bonus word… This shall be a year of extravagant praise, a year of double peace and prosperity. Father I thank you that you are releasing your angels to work on my behalf heeding your word. Thank you for great grace, double peace and supernatural prosperity upon my life. Amen
