Declaring the Word of God

We talk a lot about declaring the word of God over every situation.
For some, you may still be wondering what that looks like, how do you declare the word. 
To give you an example I've chosen the 23rd Psalms.
​Basically just take your favorite scripture or passage and pray it in first person.




Praying the 23rd Psalm
Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus.
I thank you Jesus that you are my (our or name your children and family) shepherd; I (we) shall not want.
Thank you that you make me (us) to lie down in green pastures, and that you lead me (us) beside the still waters.
And I thank you Lord that you restore my (our) soul(s) and lead me (us) in the paths of your righteousness for your name’s sake.
Though I (we) walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I (we) will fear no evil for you are with me (us). Your rod (ordinances) and your staff (laws) comfort and protect me (us).
You prepare a table before me (us) in the presence of my (our) enemies and you anoint my (our) head with oil, my (our) cup runs over.
I thank you that surely your goodness and mercy shall follow me (us) all the days of my (our) life (lives). And I (we) will dwell in the house of my (our) Lord forever.
In Jesus’ name I (we) pray, Amen.
Alternately, you might pray something like this:
Father according to the 23rd Psalms, I declare you are my shepherd, I shall not want.
I declare the green pastures belong to me and my family, that our cup runs over, and I declare that your goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life. I choose Father to live in the house of my God, my Lord and Savior forever. In Jesus' name, amen.
Apply this technique to any of the scriptures and you are on your way to victory. But don't just spout off at the mouth, you must believe what comes out of your mouth for this to work. Turn inward to the Holy Spirit, recognize what you believe about the word of God in your spirit.
We'll do this again with the 91st Psalm and Isaiah 54:17 in the weeks ahead.
Blessings until next time.
