DECREES & DECLARATIONS - WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW ARE THEY BIBLICAL?
WHAT IS A DECREE?
A decree is a Godly order to His people, what God commands us to do, Marching Orders from God.
WHAT IS A DECLARATION?
A declaration claims something by faith in the present tense, not yet manifested.
Romans 4:17 - calleth those things which be not as though they were. (KJV)
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?
Only God can give out decrees.
A declaration is us putting action to the decree; what we speak regarding the order received from God, bringing it to life.
HOW IS THIS BIBLICAL?
John 14:12 - “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.” (NKJV)
Romans 4:17 - "...and calleth those things which be not as though they were." (KJV)
Jeremiah 1:12 - "...for I am [actively] watching over My word to fulfill it." (AMP)
Luke 6:45 - "...for out of the abundance (overflow) of the heart his mouth speaks." (AMPC)
Deuteronomy 30:19 - "...that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life..." (KJV)
Proverbs 18:21 - "Death and life are in the power of the tongue..." (KJV)
Every good and perfect gift comes from above. (James 1:17)
And because God so loved the world, (John 3:16)
He sent His Son to redeem us all so that we can receive adoption to sonship. (Gal. 4:4-5)
So the Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. (John 1:14)
Our Savior was born in the town of David. He is the Messiah, the Lord. (Luke 2:11)
He is called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace, (Isa. 9:6)
The Lamb of God Who took away the sins of the world. (John 1:29)
Yes, God saved us all because of His mercy. (Titus 3:4-6)
Therefore, we rejoice and have joy and exultant delight over His birth. (Luke 1:14)
Lord, help us have Your perspective on all things. Let us not forget Your selfless and loving act in sending Your Son to redeem us all.
May our desire for You burn brightly. Help us grow in our relationship with You so there is no distinguishing where we end and You begin.
We love You, Lord. Fill our hearts and homes with gladness, in...
There is so much to be thankful for. The Lord’s blessings are more abundant than the stars in the sky, and His faithfulness endures from generation to generation. (Ps. 41:13, 90:2; 1 Chron. 29:10)
He is the Author and Finisher of our faith (Heb. 12:2), the Creator of all things (Isa. 40:28), and the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End (Rev. 1:8). He alone is high and lifted up (Isa. 6:1-4), reigning forever in majesty and glory (Ex. 15:18; Ps. 93:1-2, 146:10; Gal. 1:5)
Today, we pause to remember all He has done — in our lives, our families, our nation, and the world.
Thank You, Lord, for Your mercy, grace, and the immeasurable gift of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
May we always hold dear Your goodness and love, and help us to share Your love and goodness with everyone we meet. Help us live in a way that brings honor and glory to You always.
To our precious Ministry Partners, we thank God for you. We pray His blessings, peace (Phil. 4:7), and the joy of the Lord (Neh. 8:10) ...
Each year on this day, we honor all men and women who served in the military of these great United States of America.
Thank you for your selfless, humble, and loyal service to our great nation! May the joy of the Lord and peace that passes all understanding strengthen and refresh you every day. (Neh. 8:10; Phil. 4:7)
