Romans 1:16 (KJV)

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Only the Good News of our Lord Jesus Christ can place the sinner into a position of glorious salvation and righteousness. There's no other way! It's only through actually telling people about the Gospel that the Righteousness of God can be unveiled and embraced. Contrary to common lies about the different ways to get to God, there are no other methods to gain Christ except someone is ministered to and salvation accepted. 

This is where you come in. If you're still trying to figure out what you're called to do, here is a mandatory calling. You have received the mandate to take the Gospel to the ends of the Earth. It's a calling not for church leaders only; it's something you're to do with all boldness, faith, courage, and conviction. You must never be ashamed or apologetic about Christ and the message of the Gospel. Don't be ashamed of who you are in Him, and don't let others make you feel ashamed of what you believe.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION 

I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ! This is my higher calling, and I walk in it wholeheartedly and with boldness! Amen.

Daniel 12:3 

1 John 1:2 (KJV)

Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

God's awesome plan for you is complete prosperity. He wants you to thrive in every way - in your spirit, in your health, and in your finances. You might be doing great in your faith in one area but still struggling with sickness or money problems. But God wants you to have it all together - spiritually, physically, and materially. That's what God's aiming for - a balanced prosperity type of life where every aspect is flourishing.

The verse also talks about spiritual prosperity being the priority. God wants you to succeed financially and physically, and He also wants you to be in good health. When you're healthy, you don't need healing because you're not getting sick. Awesome, right? Make it happen by living the Word! Immerse yourself in it, study it, think about it, and it becomes the guiding light to complete prosperity!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am a person of the Word, and I decree and declare that I have complete prosperity through the Word today in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Philippians 4:19

 1 John 5:4 (KJV)

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

Many Christians often cite the verse above without fully grasping what it means to overcome the world. When you have overcome the world, you have the power and authority to subjugate earthly systems. The word 'subjugate' means to bring something under your dominion or control! This is what the Bible says we have done to the world and its systems!

As a child of God, you are a joint heir with Christ! The Bible tells us that things present and all things to come are yours! Every so often, affirm who you are in Christ, saying, "I Have dominion over all things; the world is mine!" You have a legal document to that effect – the Word of God! Therefore, no matter what takes place around you, you still have the power to subjugate the world’s systems to your advantage!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I’m of God and have overcome the world! I’m a God-man, one in whom Christ literally dwells. God has given me authority over all things that pertain to life and godliness. I lack absolutely nothing; my wealth is limitless, inestimable, and unquantifiable. I have overcome every power and force that tries to rise against me, in Jesus' mighty Name!

1 Corinthians 3:21-22

Daniel 12:3 (KJV)

And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament, and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.

There is no greater pleasure than pleasing the Lord and fulfilling His will by leading sinners to salvation. You cannot claim to be a serious Christian without prioritising your call to minister the Gospel to others. 

The Lord Jesus Christ Himself summarized His mission on Earth when He said, "For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost" (Luke 19:10). See that? If we claim to be Christ-like, then His mission should be our mission. 

As Christians, we are called to fulfil the ministry of reconciliation and actively engage in soul winning as a lifestyle, not just something we do in the streets as a church group at the weekend. 

Tell someone about Him today!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION 

I am a missionary sent for such a time as this! Today I shall seize every opportunity to help someone receive the precious gift of salvation. Amen.

Proverbs 24:16 (KJV)

For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: But the wicked shall fall into mischief.

Perseverance is one of the most essential principles for those who want to obtain a life of success! The Bible tells us the story of a young boy named Joseph who had the ability to interpret dreams. Joseph’s siblings grew jealous of him and sold him into slavery in Egypt. Amongst the many challenges he faced whilst in Egypt, he was falsely accused, which led to his imprisonment. However, his ability to decipher dreams reached the Pharaoh's attention, leading to his rise to power as a trusted adviser and second in command in the whole nation!

Joseph is just one of many people in the Bible who showed the importance and power of perseverance. No matter the circumstances of life, remember that all things work together for the good of those who love God! As you go about the rest of your week, constantly affirm the Lordship of Jesus Christ over every situation regarding your life and the lives of your family. You will see the mighty hand of God doing wonders in your life!  

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I LIVE A LIFE OF PERSEVERENCE. NO MATTER THE CHALLENGE, I will overcome and exceed everyone’s expectations. In this year, MY EYES WILL WITNESS THE GOODNESS OF GOD! Hallelujah!

Romans 28:8

Romans 12:1 (KJV)

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. 

Once you're born again, it's your job to take care of your body, which is God's temple. It's up to you to keep it healthy and strong for God to use. The devil will try to harm your body, but you have the power to say no and stop him.

Remember what our theme verse says: "Present your bodies a living sacrifice." God gives you the authority to manage your body. That's why some Christians, even though they have the Holy Spirit, still struggle with sickness. It's because they're the ones in charge of their bodies. God has the right to rule your body, but He appointed you to take care of it for Him. So today, rise through the Word and take charge of your house, which is your body. YOU ARE IN CHARGE, and everything is to your advantage!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am in charge; sickness is not a part of who I am. I'm a new creation in Christ, and He has made a way for my divine health. I refuse to be sick! I have the supernatural life of God that keeps me healthy. Hallelujah!

James 5:16-17 (AMPC)

... The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available [dynamic in its working]. Elijah was a human being with a nature such as we have [with feelings, affections, and a constitution like ours]; and he prayed earnestly for it not to rain, and no rain fell on the earth for three years and six months. 

When the Bible refers to a righteous man, it's referring to you who is born again. With this in mind, today's verse was given to us as an example of the high effectiveness of prayer in taking dominion over our situations. 

Elijah's prayer was fervent, meaning heartfelt, continued and persistent. He prayed for a change, and the heavens responded. 

By taking dominion through prayer, you can change your business, your bank account, or your health. Is there anything you want to change this year? No matter what you are going through, bulldoze your way forward, knowing that you take dominion over it and change it through your effective prayers! 

PROPHETIC DECLARATION 

I live in complete dominion over everything in my life! Nothing shall fail or fall to the ground because I have said so, in Jesus' Name! Amen.

1 John 2:15-17 (KJV)

Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.

Christ is living, breathing, and operating directly through you! The moment you accepted Him into your life, you immediately adopted his nature and godly culture! As a Christian, you have to be re-cultured by the Word of God! Whilst we all have individual mannerisms, personalities and preferences, we are followers of one God, which is Jesus Christ! The Bible says that whosoever abides in Christ ought to walk in the same way He did!

The moral decay of the world is visible for all to see! As a child of God refuse to accept the desires and culture of the world with the knowledge that you have taken up the culture of Jesus Christ the moment you accepted Him into your life! 

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

The war of culture vs Christ has already been won! I have overcome the world and all its fleshly desires, in Jesus' mighty Name! Amen.

1 Peter 2:24 (KJV)

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.

In the world, you are taught that sickness, pestilence and disease are nothing out of the ordinary in the average human experience. Whereas these circumstances should be abnormalities in your walk with Christ! The Bible teaches us that the moment you accepted Jesus Christ into your life, you simultaneously rejected the ordinary! The Bible says that all things that pertain to life and godliness have been given to YOU! Therefore, sickness and disease have no place in your life as a child of God!

All throughout the Old Testament, we see people’s barrenness being eradicated, people being raised from the dead, and many more miraculous healings. In the New Testament, the same Spirit who orchestrated those miracles is operating in you! The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead is living and breathing in you! As soon as the Holy Spirit entered you, you were given power to vanquish sickness simply by your words. God has made healing as easy as breathing; begin to speak healing into every area of your life today!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I receive my healing today! God has made healing easy as breathing! Nothing is capable of harming or destroying me, in Jesus' mighty Name!

Colossians 3:16 (KJV)

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

In the biblical account concerning the famous flood, the Lord commanded Noah to construct an ark to withstand the impending worldwide rainstorm. Despite the catastrophic flood that submerged entire cities and claimed countless lives, Noah's ark resiliently bore up the righteous. That was the means God used to save those who were for Him. We have something better than the ark!

As storms of inflation, disaster, and violence surge in these latter days, it is essential that you resist anxiety and fear. To achieve victory over the storm, we have the Word, hallelujah! It is essential to cultivate a deep reservoir of God's Word within your spirit. Fostering a rich connection with the Word ensures your good success, irrespective of global catastrophes. Don't be submerged by the day's troubles; just consume the Word, and you will float above it all!

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I declare that the Word of Christ dwells richly in me in all wisdom. I immerse my spirit in the Word, buoyant like Noah's ark. The circumstances that have been sinking businesses, careers, and finances for others will serve as a catalyst for my promotion in the Name of Jesus!
