Prayers & Declarations

INTRODUCTION 
Affirming the truth of Christ’s victory and Satan’s defeat is the primary step toward successfully standing against the enemies attempts to control you.

I can’t speak enthusiastically enough about helping people understand who they really are in Christ.   As God’s adopted child, you have been given a new identity and a new name. You are no longer a spiritual orphan, you are a son or daughter of God. As a child in God’s family, you have become a partaker of his “divine nature”  (2 Peter 1:4).

You must “be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2). How do you renew your mind? By filling it with God’s word. To win the battle for your mind you must “let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts” (Colossians 3:15) and “let the word of Christ richly dwell within you” (verse 16). As you continue to stockpile your mind with God’s truth, you will equip yourself to recognize the lie and take it captive.

It is vitally important that you fill your mind with the knowledge of God and his word. You need to see life from God’s perspective and respond accordingly to keep the devil from gaining a foothold in your life.

For 2000 years, Christians have known the importance of verbally and publicly declaring truth. One of the greatest ways to help yourself achieve freedom and grow into maturity in Christ is to continually remind yourself of who you are in Him.

When Christians seek help, it is usually because life has dealt them a hard blow. They usually think something is wrong with them, and their perception of God is distorted. What a privilege to share with them the truth of who they are in Christ and help them repair their faulty belief system! 

I keep several copies of the “Who I Am In Christ?,”  “Statements of Truth” and “Since I am in Christ” lists handy in my office. When we lovingly share with people who they are in Christ, we are applying the truth of God’s word to the ailing root system of faulty beliefs. Too often counseling starts by finding out what is wrong with the client. We have the privilege to tell them what is right about them in Christ which gives them the assurance of victory.
