“But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.” 2 Chronicles 15:7 (NIV)
A major principle revealed to us in the scriptures that can consistently change our lives is confessing God’s Word and declaring it over our lives and situations. It is the key to possession and advancement in these times of uncertainty. It is something every child of God should engage to experience an all-round success.
While it is important to confess God’s Word, it is important to persist in doing so, not only when life is smooth but also during challenges. I’ve noticed that people often declare God’s word when things are going well, but abandon this practice when faced with difficulties. This shouldn’t be the case. Maintain your confession regardless of circumstances. No matter what the devil throws at you, look beyond it and stick to God’s promises.
We don’t confess God’s word merely because it sounds good, but because it represents God’s thoughts and perspective. So if you believe what the Word says, make it a point of duty to declare it both in good times and in tough times. Refuse to allow the situation you go through to determine the words that come out of your mouth. Let your words be influenced by God’s Word, not your situation. Therefore, take heed and refuse to allow the devil to make you give up.
It is better to speak God’s word or remain silent if you have nothing to say. Even under intense pressure, stand firm in speaking what God has said. Never give up on this practice, for it is the power you need to overcome. Praise God!

Father in the Name of Jesus, I thank you for reminding me of the importance of sticking to your Word. Henceforth, I choose to declare only what your word has said and not what my situation is saying. I refuse to give up on declaring your word, because your Word is life to me and all that concerns me. Praise God!
